5 SIMPLE STEPS TO DRESSING FOR YOUR PROFESSION


Every profession requires its own kind of uniform. #appropriate dress code.

These dress rules are not written on stone but are the expected WEAR in that particular industry.

classic cut and fit

When it comes to dressing for ones profession these five things will help you go a long way in looking the part especially if your organization has no corporate uniform.


  1. Dress for the job you want and not the one you have.
  2. Find what others in that position are wearing.
  3. Wear what you are comfortable in .No.. your stay at home sweats and football t-shirt is not it.
  4. Dress for the body you have and not the one you want.
  5. Engage the assistance of a professio

Going Back to Work

CONGRATULATIONS your baby is really cute..........

BUT....you have to return to work.

Going back to work after maternity leave is the most stressful thing for most mums, new mums especially and now daddies get it too. 
As an Image Consultant mums going back to work and professionals wanting to get ahead make a big percentage of my clients.

So what do you do to get ready?

1. Talk to yourself reminding yourself why you have to go back.
















2. Stop feeling guilty, its not your fault and you are not a bad parent, it just has to be done.


















3. Go to the salon like 3days to going back and get your hair, eyebrows, nails fixed, this will help you transition better. when you feel good, you look good, you work good.


4. One week to going back, go through your work clothes and find the ones that fit and the ones that don't push them to the back of the closet, this will help you know if you need to go shopping or to readjust some clothes.


5. Start wearing heels around the house and remind your feet how they felt in them.


6.Get fitted for a new bra.


7. Leave Baby and Nanny or at day care for an hour every day the last week before you leave, to help ease the transition. remember you, baby and nanny are all transitioning.



8. Let the care giver or day care know that you will be calling alot, so to please keep the phone near and fully charged.


9.Remind yourself that you don't need to call every 20 minutes, they are fine, calling 3times will do.

Mother and daughter go to the market


Mum takes her kiondo and heads out to the market, the little baby gal on seeing this grabs her's and follows mummy.


This is the conversation they had.
Mom: where are you going
Baby gal: market
Mom: okay but if you cry for anything i will tell the fish smelly guy to take you.
Baby gal: will not cry.
Baby gal: mum my bag is like yours
Mom: yeah it is.
Baby gal: give me money.
Mom gives baby gal some shillings
Baby gal: No give me paper money like yours. (she is now screaming and throws away the money).
Mom ignores this behavior and continues walking
Baby gal calms down, she crosses her arm over her tinny chest and pouts. she walks quickly ahead of mum.

changing the world.

Like I have the habit of doing I went to church on Sunday and it was as always a nice experience.

One of  the Pastors asked us a very interesting question, He asked how many would like to be world changers, I quickly almost raised my hand,I mean who doesn't want to be a world changer, I wondered why I was hesitant (sometimes I react before thinking things thoroughly through)

so I sank a little lower on my pew and got kinda lost in my own thought wondering Naomi why on earth do you not want to be a world changer.
