Client Kelle was due for a new interview suit.  She knew a skirt suit was in order – the dressiest kind of suit – and wanted to ensure it was not a boring suit.  As she tells us, we found a beautiful suit at Ann Taylor, one of my favorite stores for petite women.

Her body shape is a slight triangle so a wider lapel that broadens her shoulder was a great fit.

We mimicked her eye color by choosing charcoal grey and brought in the gold tones from her hair with the mixed-metals necklace.

Additionally, the pattern on her shell, combined with the textures of her necklace make a nice match with her curly hair.

A sheer off-black hose provides visual unity without being too stark and a black croc-patterned shoe adds provides interest and a little-but-not-too-much personality.

We are excited for Kelle and know that she’ll get positive attention whether she’s in an interview or the boardroom.

I know Jenny through Twitter (@PrincessSushi), attending #stptweetup networking events and now we are both on the board of the Minneapolis/St. Paul chapter of Girls in Tech.

She always looks lovely and was particularly festive at the launch party for Girls in Tech MSP.

In her video, Jenny tells us about her all-black party look that is a great example of a Work Day to Work Party outfit.

I met Cynthia Johnson at a recent networking event through WIN (Women in Networking).

She gave a personal testimonial during the event and caught my attention for two reasons: 1) she is a raw food chef and owner of Living Soul Cuisine that I need to introduce to a friend of mine and 2) she looked smashing.

In her video, Cynthia Johnson tells us how she chose what to wear for a busy day.  With her outfit she can quickly adapt from networking to teaching a class to being a musician.

If you co-exist with snow for the winter like Fabuliss client Avonelle, having a great pair of boots that can transition from outdoors to indoors is essential.

She recently contacted me for help narrowing down to a few choices.

Here’s what happened:

1. We Skyped for about 15 minutes so she could tell me what she was looking for in terms of price range, style, heel height, color and functionality.
2. I shopped online (Nordstrom & Endless.com) and narrowed my selections down to 10.
3. The above snapshot is an example of one of the boots in her PDF, including a link to the boot, the price and a few notes and considerations.

With 10 boots to choose from, Avonelle can either buy one (or more) of the boots I recommend or shop on her own now that she has ideas and information to guide her.

This process took place over several days and can usually be done with a 24-hour turnaround.

Welcome to the first installment of the Fabuliss new video series, Hello, Fabuliss…What Are You Wearing?

Beth and I initially met on Twitter (her handle is @whereitblooms) and now know each other in real life thanks to our membership with WIN (Women in Networking).  She’s also a regular participant in the weekly #stylechat on Twitter.

We connected at a recent WIN luncheon event and am very excited that she agreed to appear on the Fabuliss blog.

As the owner of Where It Blooms, Beth helps businesses with graphic design, project management and other marketing needs.  It is critical that she conveys a creative style along with professionalism.

We hope you enjoy this new series!
