The Lovie Awards’ Post

Ladies, let’s talk about the power of hair in the workspace. 💼 It’s more than just a style; it’s an extension of who you are and how you show up every day. When your hair looks and feels good, you bring a confidence that’s unmistakable. It’s that boost that gives you the extra edge in meetings, presentations, and networking events. Your hair is your crown—and it deserves to be treated like one. 👑 It’s not about vanity; it’s about owning your space, knowing your worth, and using every part of you to show up powerfully. Imagine walking into that boardroom, owning your expertise, and letting your style speak volumes before you say a word. That’s the energy I want every professional woman to have, and it starts with embracing the power of a great hair journey. Let’s take our hair and our careers beyond the expected. #EmpoweredWomen #ProfessionalConfidence #HairJourney #BeyondBlowouts #WomenInBusiness

Here are 5 things you need to do NOW to be ready for the conference season in the autumn: 👉🏼 List the events you are speaking at; 👉🏼 Note down the type of audience and the keywords you’d like the audience to have in their mind when they see you on stage (what’s your tone of voice, what’s your messaging) 👉🏼 Think how you can translate that into your outfit for each event 👉🏼 Check if you’ve already got that in your wardrobe or if you need to buy some of the items to complete the looks 👉🏼 Take pictures of the outfits (or make a list of all the items for each outfit) so you are all ready and don’t need to worry about your look. It sounds like it’s too early, but in fact it’s perfect timing. It’s quieter now, you have time to sort out through your wardrobe. And I’m about to open the doors to my 3 month programme for women speakers in a few days where I will help you get your stage look sorted so you feel confident up there which will lead to more speaking gigs and higher fees. AND, because ppl are worried about joining during the summer, you get extra 2 weeks so you are not missing out. You can check out the details below in the comments.

"I'm a young woman, when I walk into a meeting I need them to know I'm mean business!!" This was her response to my questions around why she reached out to me and what she was hoping to accomplish . She gets it! She knows her style is a tool. It's our biggest communication tool. It speaks before we even open our mouth She had landed a new business and will be delivering ongoing training for a large blue chip company. She has seen everything from tshirts to blazers when she's visited the offices, so wasn't quite sure how she should show up. As I told her, with such a range in levels of dress, it's a great opportunity for her to communicate who she is, what she values, what her business is about, set expectations and define her personal brand…. This is what we'll be working on for the next few weeks Creating a Summer wardrobe that: ✅ Gives her the confidence to deliver the expertise that she's been honing for years ✅ Get her noticed for the right reasons ✅ Show up with energy and excitement ✅ Show up for herself as she navigates life as a business owner By owning the narrative By being intentional with the message she's sending By creating a wardrobe that aligns with her Personal brand Is it time to update or refresh your wardrobe, to align with new opportunities or how you choose to show up? #personalbrand #professionalspeakers #realwomenstyling #womeninbusiness #styleadvice #dressingforwork #bewhoyouwantobe #professionalstylist #professionalwomen #femalebusinessowner #businessdress #styleconfidence #

Embracing my professional journey means embracing the challenges that come with it... including the most recent episode of 'The Professional Beauty Standards Show'! This week's highlight: being asked about my tenure in the field because I look 'young.' Ah, the joys of having my expertise measured in laugh lines! As a woman, I'm not just navigating the usual workplace expectations—I'm also tiptoeing through this bizarre fashion funhouse! Do my high heels signify confidence or something else? Are my flats deemed too casual? 🤔 Is a pantsuit a power move, or does it invite unwanted labels? And do not even get me started on the absurd 'natural hair isn't professional' myth (I am proudly rocking my silver era by the way) Can we please hit pause on the runway and shift the spotlight to what truly matters – the quality of our work? Can we all agree to toss these outdated stereotypes aside and judge each other based on our contributions, not our appearance? Let's celebrate competence over cosmetics, brilliance over beauty, and letting our work - not our laughter lines - do the talking.

Today is a big day for one of my clients, I am so excited for her! It's her first time on a giant stage. It's a company-wide meeting for her top execs. Last night we talked about something so KEY: What should she WEAR? especially when the stage feels new to you, what you wear is so important. She sent me four photos of herself in four different different outfits and asked for my opinion. I promptly gathered all the women in my house, one of whom is our exchange student from the Fashion Capital of the World - Milan, Italy! I texted back: "It's unanimous. Photo #3!" So that was fun! A mini focus group at my house, at 9:30pm 😎 ---------- She goes on stage this a.m. And she is READY. What you wear makes a huge difference. It has to make you feel strong and powerful. Your shoes have to be comfortable, familiar. ---For women, it's often the case that some kind of collar brings that higher level of professionalism and polish. ---For men, there are so many ways to add style, from shoes to the fabric of a jacket or color of a tie. No matter what you wear, it's important to think about it. If you don't feel comfortable in it, it's going to show. This client is so prepared. She has put in all the work to polish the message and the script. To run through the slide deck. To use the AI rehearsal gym Yoodli again and again, and to do our 10 step process of intense VISUALIZATION. She got to WORK. I'll let you know how she does in a comment once I hear! I wish I could share the photo of the stage with you, but it would be a dead giveaway lol. I'm so proud of her, today is her day. 😎 What do YOU wear to feel powerful when you speak? #presentations #annualmeeting #conferencespeaker #keynote #leadership #generalcounsel

As a young 20-something starting my career (and navigating a male dominated workplace), I learned to use my wardrobe as a tool. I wore tailored-to-perfection suits that made me look, and feel, fearless (hello 90’s shoulder pads!). Over time, and as my confidence grew, I experimented with mixed suiting and opted for softer looks. I began to feel more confident, more comfortable, and - well, more like myself. In my styling career, I’ve had the privilege of advising women from all walks of life. What I've learned is that personal style isn't just about outward appearance — it’s the outer wardrobing that lets the inner you shine. The way I see it: Finding and owning your personal style is what allows you to be seen for your gifts, your passions, and all the things that make you perfectly and undeniably you. As we approach International Women’s Day, let’s celebrate, honor, and share what it means to be a woman in this world. Let’s also get real: to share power, one must also feel powerful. So put on your oxygen mask first. Take time to ensure that your outside reflects who you are on the inside. And when you do -  I promise that you’ll show up better, take up more space, and do even more incredible things. Wrabyn Boutique #IWD #WHM #PersonalStyle

[...]Moreover, Little Simz's videos are a striking blend of narrative and fashion, using style as a powerful tool to enhance her message. The fashion in her videos is not just aesthetic but a form of expression and resistance, adding layers of meaning to her decolonizing efforts. By integrating fashion into her storytelling, she redefines cultural identity and proposes new ways of understanding the world. This crisis is not just a challenge but also an opportunity to reconsider and reinvent how we understand and narrate our experiences. Through a critical exploration of the relationship between narrative, identity, and cultural expression, we can hope to find new ways of understanding and constructing meaning in contemporary society.
