If you have a passion for fashion, and a good sense of style, then a career as a personal shopper could be right up your street. You don’t need any formal qualifications, but there are courses available. If you have a degree in a relevant subject like fashion design or marketing, that will give you a good background and added authority. There are opportunities to work for designers and retail outlets as an in-house personal shopper, or you might prefer to work for yourself and set up your own business. Either way, there are things you can do to gain the necessary experience and learn the skills you need to be successful.

Experience
Whilst you might consider yourself knowledgeable enough to start advising customers straight away, the more experience you have of the industry the better you will be equipped to help prospective clients. One of the best ways to gain experience is to spend time working in a fashion store, where you will learn the craft of excellent customer service and build your expertise in finding the right outfits for a wide variety of clients. Wherever you live, you should have a range of stores near you, so check out who is hiring, or make enquiries with the business directly. Many firms have their own job websites, and there are employment agencies and employment websites that list current vacancies, for example the Dillards careers page on the Job Application Center website.

Networking
Like many careers, it’s very important to get to know people in the industry, and get yourself known to the people who matter. Some of the best jobs will be headhunted, that is personal shoppers will be targeted and approached by an agency on behalf of an employer. If you want to be in line for these premium positions, you need to raise your profile and bring yourself to the attention of the movers and shakers. Having your own website and/or social media accounts where you regularly post interesting content is a good way to show off your talents. You should also attend as many fashion related events as you can, so you become a familiar face on the scene.

Learning
Fashion is a constantly shifting phenomena, and you need to keep abreast of all the latest trends and designs. Sign up for emails and newsletters from leading authorities in the trade, and follow the prominent members of the community on Twitter to make sure you know what’s happening and what’s new. You need to be living and breathing the industry to ensure you stay on top of what’s going on, and to demonstrate your grasp of and commitment to the essentials of your profession.
If you can add experience and expertise to your skills as a fashion fan, you have a good chance of building a very successful and rewarding career. It’s very satisfying helping people to look their best, and if you do a good job you will soon have clients queuing up for your services.

Don't put away your pastels just yet. Just because autumn is here, doesn't mean that wearing pastels in the fall is impossible, or that you need to ditch your lighter-colored pieces. Light, pale colors may not seem to fit in with the dark, pigmented colors of fall, but the truth is that the two are really a match made in clothing-heaven. Forget any fashion rules you think that you may know and throw them out the window. When it comes to style, it's only your perspective that matters. In my opinion, pastels are perfect for fall as they add a bit of color to an outfit without overhelming any other pieces. What's not to love?

When it comes to styling pastels, it's all about adding in different textures. Personally, I love pairing pastel pieces with suede or leather in the fall, as it's such a lovely juxtaposition of sweet and edgy staples. However, if you're into bold prints and colors you may want to add bits of pastels as well. Bold pieces mix great with cool pink. Basically pastels are for everyone, all the time.

Pastel mix well with so many different patterns and textures. Try adding a chic print and a cool trench coat to a pastel pair of pants for an interesting mix.

My interest in floral prints stems in part from my belief that every woman should be able to thrive in a professional workplace while wearing clothes that make her feel powerful and attractive. On the other hand, this belief requires focused attention to the details that can make the difference between looking sophisticated and looking girlish.

A little floral at the office goes a long way. First of all, keep in mind to wear one floral print at a time. Keep your look sleek and sophisticated when wearing floral prints to work. Avoid girlish details like ruffles, bows decorative edging and lace.

A floral statement piece (or any statement piece, for that matter) should be paired with an otherwise understated outfit. For example, wear a bold floral blouse with a simple neutral pants, a classic handbag and understated jewellery. Look for floral prints with rich colors which look more professional. Avoid neon which is too casual for the office.

Beware of girlish pastel prints at the office. Either avoid them altogether or think carefully about how to wear a pastel floral print to work.

First impressions often have a great impact on your success at work and even your company's success. Therefore think about your wardrobe choices and the appropriate work wear.
While we may want to rebel and say that our skills should be enough, first impressions, especially your clothes and appearance make a  much stronger first impression. It goes back to the old adage :" A picture is worth a thousand words", encouraging you to put your best look forward at all times. While you need to look smart for interviews, it's even more important that you look the part and portray the company you're representing properly. Therefore, some companies are even enforcing dress codes.

Why First Impressions Matter

  • Your work wear sends a message to every person that you encounter throughout the day. It shows them how you see yourself and how you want others to see you. You wouldn't want to be season as casual or sloppy, you want to be seen as competent and professional so you need to look the part.
  • If you wear mismatching outfits, potential clients may miss your expertise as they'll often pass you by. They'll only find out how smart you are if you actually get to chat with them. Therefore, it's beneficial to splurge on some appropiate work wear choices where you're dressing for the job you want at the company. Clients will think your business savvy and listen to you which will look good for your company also.
  • It's important to pay attention to how others in the company dress. You want to fit into the industry and not stand out like sore thumb. If you work in art gallery, wearing a dark, boxy suit may stick out so you may choose something with more colours. It's important to choose the highest quality garments from well-known workwear suppliers. Be consistent with your choices and show up each day well put together.

The importance of a Dress Code


Company dress code may vary by the type of business. That's why, to avoid wrong interpretations, it is important for workers like us to understand the dress code that our company implements. If you work in a financial firm, the dress code regulations may be different than if you work in an old-fashioned 1950s diner. Nevertheless, if you're working in a professional setting, you'll have to make sure that your attire from workwear suppliers will carry the specifications and the expectations of the company, such as formal business suits or dress suits, as well as lightweight blazers over wrinkle-free dress pants. Remember that you're not working in a place where it's allowed to wear casual attire like sandals or tennis shoes; only use closed-toe dress shoes.
Alternatively, if you work in a diner or other more laid back businesses, they can still enforce a dress code so that all of their employees look professional, such as matching polo shirts, black pants or skirts. Most importantly, they'll want you to put your best look forward so that customers see the best part of their business.

As dress codes are created, remember to follow them because if you become too casual, other employees may become casual about their work ethics as well by not finishing projects on time or dressing how they prefer anyway. That's not the kind of first impression you want other to get of your workplace, is it?

Enough about work! It's Friday and I know you must be looking forward for the weekend, but do not forget to think about your work outfits for the next week!
Hope you'll find my advice useful!
Have a nice day,
Valentina
