Let's face it. The coronavirus has dramatically changed not only how we work but what we wear to work. Instead of dress, blazers, blouses, and of course pants, we're rocking cozy loungewear. Loungewear can take you seamlessly from zoom meetings to running errands, to the couch just in time for your favorite Netflix movie.

According to Edited, workwear sales are down by as much as 45%, loungewear searches are up by over 800%, and the global loungewear market estimates that loungewear...

The global pandemic has sparked a new age of remote work for thousands of office goers, allowing many women to trade their heels for slippers. But what happens when comfortable clothes end up impacting productivity? And furthermore, do they impact productivity in the first place?

Slipping into a funk while working remotely every day is not a new side effect because of the pandemic. However, there are more than enough online resources to tap into that offer advice on staying focussed. One of...

Did you know that we are full swing into interview season?? 

Everyone's back in full swing from the holiday season, hiring managers have received new hiring budgets for the year, and there's a backlog of hiring that was placed on hold from the Thanksgiving to Christmas seasons. 

As a result, this is also the time of year that I receive a lot of client requests for interview prep support, anything from resumes to image consulting. Because my...

When I work with speakers, coaches, entrepreneurs, and executives on creating a powerful professional image, it’s because they’ve either been told or they’ve come to understand that an effective brand is essential to showcase their knowledge and skills. They know that cultivating an overall image includes (but extends beyond) what you wear, your attitude, how you show up, the strength of your communication skills (verbal and non-verbal), and your digital footprint. They or...

Building a wardrobe capsule is a fabulous way to maximize your wardrobe, expand your creativity, and save significant time and money. 

With just 10-12 pieces of clothing, you can easily create 3-4 weeks of stylish combinations to wear to work, networking, meeting with a client, or for an upcoming business trip. 

You can use this process to really pair down your wardrobe and go the minimalist route owning just 10, 20, or even 30 pieces of clothing TOTAL. Admittedly, I have more...

Remember when Samantha Jones in Sex and the City 2, announced she was going through menopause while in the midst of a devastating hot flash?

The Sex and the City movie had fun with this storyline, even though Kim Cattrall, the lady herself, hadn't start going through menopause until two years later. Regardless of her plight, Samantha created a plan of action to look and feel fabulous during "the change." She made menopause look fabulous...hot and sweaty...but fabulous.

I myself...

I had a fun day today on the set of ABC's affiliate KATU's AM Northwest Morning Show. Today was about building versatility in your wardrobe using three key distinct pieces: (1) a tank dress, (2) a great pair of dark denim jeans, and (3) a fabulous pencil skirt.

These are great pieces that you'll be able to dress up or down which makes them perfect for a classic business casual wardrobe.

Why These Three Pieces Matter

The Tank...

On average we wear about 20% of the clothes in our closet. So why is it when we start packing for a trip we feel the need to bring the other 80% (that we don't often wear) along?? That's right, 55% percent of those surveyed by Cheapflights.com admitted that they overpack. Listen, if you don't wear it at home, the chances of of you wearing on vacation are nill to none. Less is definitely more when it comes to packing.

How do you pack like a pro? On my monthly segment on AM Northwest, I shared...
