Global Economy - How to survive

Wednesday, November 19, 2008

The financial global economy may be shakier than we’ve seen however there are some tips you can follow to stay ahead.  As many people are more cautious in how they spend their $, it’s really is important not to neglect how you market yourself.

  • Put your fashion money on a classic. A classic dress, blazer, tailored pants or sheath dress will last year after year.  Local designers with classic styles for Summer 2008 include Sportscraft, Country Road, Perri Cutten and Lisa Ho.
  • When buying a new product choose one that’s practical.
  • Only buy a wardrobe staple that is new and stylish.  But if there’s nothing different on offer continue with your wardrobe staples.
  • Never neglect your grooming and finishing touches.  These are what give you the competitive edge.
  • Instead of investing in new clothing, consider accessories, scarves, jewellery, ties and belts to change your look.

Remember your image may the thing that makes or breaks you.
