*Well, it’s another new year, and if you are still feeling bad about yourself, here’s some good advice: change your image! Once you get your outside reflecting what you have on the inside,you will be amazed at how many other things fall into place..…higher self esteem, job opportunities, and perhaps even that special relationship.

Case in point:

When you stroll through a department store and notice the displays, do they entice you to look at a certain outfit? They should, because that is what they are intended to do. Those displays are put there to tempt you to spend money. Why? Because it is called “Salesmanship” Ever since that pushcart owner polished his fruit and vegetables in order for them to sell faster, image has played an important role in the bottom line.

I FEEL BAD ABOUT MYSELF AND WHENEVER I GO INTO A STORE FITTING ROOM OR LOOK INTO THE MIRROR I JUST WANT TO GIVE UP. WHAT CAN I DO?

I AM A GUY WHO NEVER TOOK MUCH INTEREST IN MY WARDROBE. I AM NOW BACK ON THE MARKET. HOW DO I LOOK MY BEST?

Well, let’s start with a DO list:

DO spend on jeans that fit really well, meaning not baggy in the butt. They should hug the butt, but not too tightly. You should invest in two styles: a lighter pair to wear casually with a nice sweater or shirt, and a darker, more fitted straightleg to wear with a blazer (a must ), for a more formal, polished look. This look will work almost anywhere,
