MY Image Consultant: a personal stylist For MEN, FOR TODAY
Why is image and style important?
The image that we personally project through our clothes, posture, and temperament sends an important message to our clients, our workmates, and our superiors. In the first few seconds of meeting a new person they will make snap judgements about who you are, how important you are, how inteligent you are and where you fit in to the social structure, it is subconcious and subliminal, but these impressions won't change unless the person is proven wrong.
Even more importantly the way we dress has a profound effect on how we feel about ourselves, greatly effecting our self esteem and therefore our posture, our confidence when we speak, and that again feeds back into the impression we are giving off to others. If you dress very smartly, it is amazing how many people will comment on how well you look, how they like the outfit your wearing, or just a little comment on the shoes or tie you are wearing, you will be amazed how much confidence these little comments give you. That confidence will come across when you are speaking and you will sound much more intelligent.
It is most important to feel confident in the way you present visually through your grooming, your hair cut, and through the cut and style of the clothes you wear, also it is just as important to understand how your image comes across to others. Image is created by a lot of different ingredients acting together ; physical appearance, dress, grooming, voice, manner, the views you express and the way you react to the people around you. As these impressions are made instantly, so it is important to get it right every time.
Images are so powerful because, however little you may like it, they do say something true about your personality. It’s no accident that you dress the way you do. Establishing your own professional image and a strong sense of individual personality and style is one of the keys to a successful personal brand. Something so important should not be left to chance. Having a great personal stylist is a shortcut in ensuring your career is not held back by the way you are portrayed.

COMMENT
Dear Annalisa,
I followed your advice and brought 5 long sleeve business shirts and 2 pairs of business pants from Myers. (avoiding short sleeves as you recommended). What a difference that made! High quality shirts are far more comfortable than cheap stuff. 100 % of my old work gear was chucked out !
My favourite mens clothing store is now Myers and I never used to shop there.
When I wore the new business gear to work on Tuesday I got comments such as "wow you look smart" "you look handsome" etc
You will be happy to hear that I chucked out 90% of my casual wardrobe this morning !
I have received the colour swatch. And I will concentrate on my casual clothes now.

TESTIMONIAL
The image makeover service offered by Annalisa took me by surprise when I realised just how much money I was saving buying the right clothes and how much better I felt when I was wearing beautiful clothing that impressed others.
She diligently helped me choose the right colour scheme for my complexion, body type and temperament and I came away feeling a lot more confident, especially when I was complemented by others on how elegant I looked. I feel that Annalisa's service represented excellent value for money, as I could not have gained so much professional knowledge on my own, nor could I have avoided making poor clothing choices if no one had held my hand and taught me how to dress properly
I would confidently recommend Annalisa to potential clients.

COMMENT
I really did find the consultation extremely valuable. I not only learned a lot, I also confirmed a number of things I had already been doing which was an added bonus! Having now completed that(Colour and Style consultation), I would like to book in the wardrobe consultation with you. This is more so I can remove the last lingering doubts I have about certain items and take real examples from my wardrobe and discuss how they could fit better etc. Lastly I wanted to tell you that I had a lot of fun during the session. You made me feel extremely comfortable. I don’t think there was anything else you could have done to make the experience more pleasurable, so thank you. :-)

COMMENT
Hi Annalisa,
"Thank you very much for spending time with me this morning and teaching me about my colours and the tools of finding the right style. It has been invaluable and has boosted my confidence in many ways. Funnily enough after seeing the photos of me this morning, I'm not cringing, I am optimistic (and with help of a personal trainer to tone up and be fit) I can now develop the traditional/dramatic/creative look I want to achieve. Of course it will require alot of work, yet the dream is closer than it was.
Once again I cannot thank you enough for your assistance. "
Regards, Ashley May 09
