(They&#8217;re not afraid to show cleavage in their fashion photos for example.)<\/p>\n<p>While I like nice looking clothes and things, I&#8217;ve never been a designer label name-dropping nona. I was however very confounded by the beautiful <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/eunichiban\">Eunice Lucero<\/a>, Managing Editor of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stylebible.ph\/\">StyleBible.ph<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Today what I want to share is what Miss Lucero taught the ladies; you have to know how to mix girly femininity with some power dressing.<\/p>\n<h3>Power Dressing Trends<\/h3>\n<p>Eunice shared in her presentation a number of looks and trends that are in-style. Austere, clean-lines with fabrics that are grayscale in tones, yet has a subtle difference to it works well to transform a woman into an executive to be taken seriously.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/leisurer2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/leisurer2.jpg\" alt=\"leisurer2\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1993\" \/><\/a><\/H3><\/p>\n<p>She also shared a slide about the different looks that work for women in different professions and lines. From sexy corporate to creative boheme, the variety gave a sense that work fashion isn&#8217;t just a cookie-cutter look. You can definitely personalize it based on your personality, and nature of profession, but the underlying message was&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3>You should care about how you present yourself in the workplace.<\/H3><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style3.jpg\" alt=\"style3\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1990\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nHow you do it does make an impression on people. I just got the impression that if you don&#8217;t own your look, your look will own you. What you wear and how you wear it will tell people if you&#8217;re thought-forward or behind the times!<\/p>\n<p><H3>MAKEUP<\/H3><\/p>\n<p>Eunice also touched on how makeup can help get you the right &#8220;professional&#8221; attention. <\/p>\n<h4>Power Lips<\/H4><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style4.jpg\" alt=\"style4\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1989\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nShe showed pictures of some power lip looks that were inspired by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.paulsmith.co.uk\/\">Paul Smith<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.prada.com\/\">Prada<\/a>. If you want people to look at and listen to you when you speak, keep the lips bold, by using a passionate matte red.<\/p>\n<h4>Power Eyes<\/H4><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style2.jpg\" alt=\"style2\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1991\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nShe also shared to keep the eyeshadow lean, and the lips bold. Or the other way around&#8230; bold eyes and soft lips. You could do the non-clubby smokey look inspired by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lanvin.com\/\">Lanvin<\/a>, or the ladylike-eyeliner look from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eliesaab.com\/\">Elie Saab<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stellamccartney.com\/\">Stella McCartney<\/a> shown above.<\/p>\n<p><H4>Power Brows and Face<\/H4><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lifebod.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/style1.jpg\" alt=\"style1\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1992\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nFor your brows, keep them thick and not thin, like the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.balmain.com\/\">Balmain<\/a> look. Make sure to give yourself a healthy glow by using an all-over bronze like that was inspired by Diane Von Fustenberg and Hash.<\/p>\n<p>So with that, I hope you found this useful as I have. If you feel you&#8217;re not being taken seriously enough even though you &#8220;own&#8221; your work&#8230;<\/p>\n<h3>Try freshening up and changing up your look with these power dressing tips. It may make a difference!<\/H3><\/p>\n<p>Eunice herself of course has another edge though. She has that added bit of mystique effect of an older <a href=\"http:\/\/www.frontiernet.net\/~rcowart\/addamsfamily.html\">Wednesday from the Addams family<\/a>. How she manages to pull that off and still look trendy, sexy, and someone to be taken seriously is something to be admired.<\/p>\n<p>Preview has it&#8217;s own popular website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stylebible.ph\/\">stylebible.ph<\/a> and 45,000 followers on its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/preview.ph\">Facebook page<\/a>.
