I’ve seen wonderful speeches spoiled by speakers who end with “Thank you.

When speeches finish with Q [...]

TU IMAGEN PERSONAL: SE HEREDA, SE COMPRA O SE APRENDE? - ()
Recibi un correo de una graduada de mis cursos que tiene, tenía a sus 25 y tendrá a los 80 un estilo único y arrolladoramente elegante.
Cuando pregunte en mi website: La imagen del vestir: se compra, se hereda o se aprende? ella contestó "las tres". Es cierto. Y aquí por qué:
LA IMAGEN PERSONAL SE HEREDA?
si en tu familia sabian de color; o compraban buenas pinturas (costosas o de feria, no importa); si en tu casa tus mayores tenian buenos modales; si eran simpáticos de corazón grande; si sabían de vinos; si sabían callarse ante el chisme; o si heredaste el don del buen host; si eran puntuales;
si en tu hogar te ensenaron a montar a caballo, nadar con estilo, jugar al tenis o ser un deportista buen ganador y buen perdedor- o si y todos te quieren en su equipo-
HAS HEREDADO UN BUEN ESTILO. Eso no se compra.
Si heredaste buen humor para mirar la vida! O elegir buenos trajes, o saber de telas, has heredado estilo.
Sí, la imagen se hereda en parte.
Y qué te falto? Que quieres aprender a depurar? Qué heredaron tu mejor amigo y tus primos, que admiras (no que envidias)?
QUÉ TE PERMITE HEREDAR DE FAMILIA?
AHORRAR TIEMPO Y DINERO, NO SIEMPRE SE PUEDEN APRENDER ESAS COSAS DESPUÉS (por falta justamente de tiempo y/ o dinero)
Si haces una lista de vas a sorprender de las cosas estupendas que heredaste en imagen personal!
LA IMAGEN PERSONAL SE COMPRA?
Salen telas nuevas todo el tiempo. La computacion esta dando una apertura al diseno que antes no habia: seas como seas hay telas y cortes y estilos que sí te representan. Lo nuevo se compra. No hay vuelta, puede gustarte el vintage, pero no puedes vivir de vintage o prestado y heredado de pies a cabeza. Al exceso déjáselo a Luis XXI.
Hay un cierto porcentaje de tu vestir que significa $.
Ej: Si eres hombre y te da flojera comprarte zapatos nuevos porque esos que no te sacas nunca, son geniales, lamento informarte que debes gastar tiempo y dinero en nuevos zapatos. No tienes tiempo? El personal shopper ira y vendra por ti a la tienda y te los llevara a casa o a la oficina, pero debes sacar la billetera para REEMPLAZAR LO QUE YA ESTA VIEJO o a punto de morir.
No por caro se excusa lo mal cuidado...o ya gastado.
En las mujeres veo la reticencia a comprar nuevos productos en el maquillaje de punta: la misma base para tu piel que cambia con las estaciones y los años, darling, no puede ser igual: debes invertir en médico, cremas y base de maquillaje. Debes invertir tu valioso tiempo tambien en elegir, probar, leer, preguntar, y luego en gastar. No es sólo comprar lo más caro, tampoco, sólo porque lo sea.
La imagen personal lleva (bastante-mucho-algo de) dinero.
En México este pensar es común, pero no en todos lados se piensa así. Los ingleses, por ejemplo, compran cosas de muy buena calidad, muy caras, un par de veces en la vida, y se niegan a reciclarlas. Es signo de estirpe, de dinero de familia, lo anti nuevo-rico. Pero no hay que exagerar. La imagen debe renovarse y se debe gastar.
QUÉ TE PERMITE TENER EL DINERO PARA GASTAR?
Algo tan simple como poder equivocarte y volver a probar. Nada menos !
LA IMAGEN PERSONAL SE APRENDE?
Lenguaje no verbal; colores; refinamiento, a veces; saber preparar tu closet, aprender a caminar, otras; saber hacer una valija, saber bailar, por qué no, la imagen personal es infinita y los asesores seguimos investigando para darte mas libertad de expresion.
QUÉ TE PERMITE APRENDER COSAS DE TU IMAGEN PERSONAL?
Sentirte pleno, vivo. No estancado en un lugar viejo.
La imagen se aprende, se compra y se hereda!
NO PIERDAS TIEMPO. DISEÑA TU IMAGEN PERSONAL, IMAGÍNALA, VÍVELA.

THREE MAGIC BOXES- About your wardrobe and yourself, would you like to answer these questions? - ()
Hola, todos! Hi, everyone!
Since the wardrobe speaks volumes and Shakespeares and Cervantes about who we are...
OBJECTIVE TODAY: to make your wardrobe work superbly for you,
start up with these (meant to be fun) questions now and you´ll find yourself coming accross dear treasures in shops and wardrobes alike.
How´s your wardrobe doing today, these days, this past week? GOOD, SO-SO, AWFUL, BORING, SPLENDID.Do you feel/ see /hear the link between your creativity/ stress/ objectives accomplished- or notand your wardrobe? YES-NO (I do, all the time!)When is it best? Worst? Which is your ideal closet, physically and aesthetically speaking? How far/close are you from it? What do you need today?
(you may write to me for coaching for free but keep it under 20 lines, please...)

-
Is it more a work-all-work closet? YES-NO
Do you like your main activity/ies in life? YES-NO (sorry, some might suffer here but I ask all whose closet I audit and it helps things-and tears-flow)
Is your wardrobe mostly about it? YES-NO Or is it about what you wish you could do? (Been there...)Do you think you are more analytical than creative? (there is no why, here, we are born that way)Ia there enough room and items for elegance and FUN in your wardrobe? Can you meet both?YES-NO (better be yeeeessss... ;)
If you love your job, great, but what
if you don´t?
IF YOU DONT: Are there still useful, dynamic, sassy clothes that say what you do EFFICIENTLY at work, with enough style? IF you must work for a living, that is, because
you have to go out to work.
YES-NO.
Liking one´s life and ADORING one´s style and wardrobe have a lot to do, it´s been proven.Still with me? Anything that was not clear for you upto now? YES-NO.
Please read again or write to me.
How much time a month do you put into it? (Three magic boxes will help you to LOVE DOING it)
ONE HOUR A MONTH/ UHMMM...NONE/ONCE A YEAR/ ONCE A SEMESTER/WHEN I GET MARRIED AGAIN. WHEN IT RAINS CANDY (valid too).
What are your feelings when you check your wardrobe out? ( when you´re HAPPY, SAD, OPTIMISTIC, SOMEONE HELPS)
WHEN??Does it resemble:
the you of decades ago or
the trip you never take/never use some things
or the
you today, absolutely, with goals and obligations and fun and all.
WHICH?Does it resemble: what you´d like to be but are not yet (ASTRONAUT AT 40, PRESIDENT OF THE US, THINKING OF IMPROBABLE FUTURES)
DOES IT RESEMBLE...your mother´s father´s colours and style TOO MUCH AND YOU ARE SO DIFFERENT?
DO YOU SHOP AT THE SAME PLACES SINCE 2002?
-Does your wardrobe represent you,
with realistic money plans ($) and DREAMS today?
THE SINCEREST YES-NO ANSWER HERE, DARLING. WE ARE IN THE MIDST OF A CRISIS! (possible answers, if your sight is blurring: it does and I do keep my budget controlled and still have a certain style and flair to dress/it does not represent my life/likings and wantings-can´t manage it and I need some help, by the way... or whatever you think, reader.Do you keep wanting an ever bigger budget since you were ten? Meaning, never satisfied? YES-NO (has to do with the previous answer, of course)
Do you feel (mostly about feelings, this wardrobe, great for heart tissue excercise :-) that with your kind of life today, whatever the set, you can learn to optimize it, put more joy in it, dress more JOYFULLY, show off your best self to the world and to yourself? YES-NOYOU MAY DOUBT, CRY AND SCREAM, BUT
BE HONEST TO YOURSELF!
all answers welcome. might be published. change your name if necessary. promise to write back within a week.
men and women welcome to your own best image! Agueda and The Three Magic Boxes (tm)
next topic: your colors.
