Chicago, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/18/2014 -- As the old adage goes, “dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” Sage advice, but what if someone is one of those people who stands in front of their closet without a clue how to put an outfit together, or what will work well for their body type?
Enter, ‘25 Ways to Polish Up Your Professional Image -- With Little to No Money’ by popular blogger and personal stylist, Kim Turner. A handy guide with practical solutions to the most common style problems, Turner’s book is an intentionally quick read. As the author knows, most professionals simply don’t have any time to waste.
“What I wanted to do with this book – and what I have done, is to create a guide that people can refer to when they’re getting dressed,” says Turner. “We’re all rushed in the morning and the last thing someone wants to do is try to plow through a guide the size of a novel!”
Packed with intelligent tips and backed by Turner’s Image Consulting Certification from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, ’25 Ways to Polish Up Your Professional Image – With Little to No Money’ is a cheat sheet for your closet, and the easiest road toward dressing your best – each and every day of the week.
Synopsis:
This short guide book provides 25 tips that will help you to create a more polished professional look with little to no money. This applies to those starting their first job and those who've had the same career for 25 years. In this competitive job market, you should look like you mean business. That doesn't mean you have to buy expensive clothing; it means learning how to make what you have work hard for you. So read this guide book and you'll see why your budget shouldn't keep you from looking smartly stylish.
As Turner knows from working with a myriad of clients, teaching online style classes and writing her popular blog, ‘Fashion Cents.TV’, being fashionable isn’t dependent on being wealthy.
“It isn’t about having the most expensive item,” says the author. “Budget shouldn’t hold you back from looking and feeling your best. What I do with the guide is show people how to work with what they have, rather than wishing for something they don’t.”
Continuing, “Anyone who wants to advance up the corporate ladder knows that it’s impossible to do so without putting effort into your appearance. I help people to put their best foot forward and show the world they mean business through their clothes. What I always tell people is that they shouldn’t let a lack of money – or even a part of their body they don’t like – hold them back from being as stylish as they can be. Start dressing like you want that job, and soon enough – you’ll have it.”
