Ladies, youve done everything they expected of you. You know who Im talking about; your parents, professors, mentors, supervisors; the list goes on. You have made it through college and your career is on track. You even managed to save some money, pay down those student loans and make a few investments.
But, you still feel like somethings missing. Is it you? Do you feel like you have some how gotten lost in the fray? Well, nows the time to get IT back! You know, that little you inside that has been lying dormant for so long, that sassy you inside thats been squelched by overwhelming work schedules, meetings and unending obligations. Get back that special sassiness you remember so well before life set in.
We all have a sassy little sista inside us and she is dying to get out. Wake her up and let her run rampant in your world for a while and you both will have some fun! But, dont forget to give her the ground rules, lest she go buck wild!
1. Self-esteem is critical. Hold yourself in high regard. Know that you are worthy. Love yourself, flaws and all because many times that which we see as flaws others see as our uniqueness. All that encompasses you makes you beautiful. You are a queen!
2. Educate yourself. I know, I know, been there done that. But, we have a tendency to get so caught up in work that we dont always keep up with what is going on in the world around us. Take the time to see a play, read a classic or take a class. Then, when you meet someone new, you will actually have something interesting to contribute to the conversation (besides work!).
3. Communicate effectively. What you say and the manner in which you say it speaks volumes. Refrain from using profanity, because there is nothing sassy about that!
4. Indulge and beautify. Treat yourself to a day at the spa. Go for a classic hairstyle that is easy to maintain. Get a manicure and a pedicure. And, if you are really feeling wicked, try a European body wrap and detoxify your body. You will love it! One of my personal favorites, make an appointment for a MAC make-over. While youre there, ask the artist to teach you a few techniques that you can use to achieve the same results.
5. Foundations. Enough can not be said about the importance of quality foundation garments. No womans arsenal would be complete without an authentic corset. I am not talking about those flimsy bustiers (they call them corsets but theyre not) that your lingerie department offers. I am referring to quality authentic corsets, hands down one of the best investments a woman can make in herself.
If you need your spirits (and your self image) lifted, just put one on and you will wonder how you ever lived without one. An authentic corset will instantly make you appear thinner by nipping in your waist, flattening your stomach and accentuating all your curves from bust to buttocks. Authentic corsets are the most sensual items of clothing a woman can wear, not only are they functional but they are also beautiful whether worn underneath as a foundation or as part of your clothing ensemble. In the words of a fashion maven, the perfect hourglass figure is made not born.
6. Classic attire. Building a classic wardrobe is essential for the sassy sista. Classic pieces dont have to cost a small fortune but they do need to be of high quality. By selectively purchasing clothing made with clean lines, high quality fabric, durable stitching and hand sewn lining, not only will you find that your clothing fits better but they will also last longer saving your money.
The seventh and final tip is time and attitude. Stop for a moment to enjoy your little sista, Sassy! Keep a positive attitude, because a zeal for life can be contagious and I cant think of better thing to catch!
