Dallas Fashion Consultant, Julie Bartlett, reviews an article by Jodi Helmer. According to the Moneywatch.com article 'Drink, Go Blonde, and 5 Other Ways to Make More Money', by Jodi Helmer on July 27, 2010, paying to look good may increase your overall pay and offers several ways to invest in your looks. None of the ideas are new. They do, however, affirm the value in looking attractive. "Attractive men and women are often seen as more talented, kind, and intelligent and that can lead to promotions and raises," says Gordon Patzer, author of Looks: Why They Matter More Than You Ever Imagined. Unattractive men, meanwhile, earned 15 percent less than their attractive coworkers in a London Guildhall University survey of 33-year-olds. Una  [more info...]

Dallas Hair Extensions Salon owner Gino Magnarelli with the Hair by Gino Salon offers tips for care of Hair Extensions Wash the hair in the shower taking care to keep the hair hanging loose. Avoid cheap shampoos as they tend to contain more detergent than conditioners and will dry out the hair. Use a salon quality shampoo. Not all salon products should be used with hair extensions. See our list of recommended products below. Avoid cheap conditioners as the conditioners tend to be watered down giving less than the needed amount of conditioning to keep the hair from drying out. Remember that this hair is not growing out of the scalp and is not being replenished with natural oils. Distribu  [more info...]

Dallas Hair Extensions Salon owner Gino Magnarelli, of the Hair By Gino Salon, offers a primer on Hair Extension Products Human hair can be like fingerprints. No two people have the exact same hair. Human hair that is used for hair extensions can be single drawn (come from a single individual) or double drawn ( from one or more individuals). Since single drawn hair comes from one person, the hair tends to be more uniform. The cuticles are usually in the same direction and there is greate consistency in the quality and color. Single drawn hair is usually higher quality hair but this is not always the case. Not all single drawn hair is healthy. It is possible to buy high quality cuticle hair in double drawn hair.

Dallas Hair Extensions Salon owner Gino Magnarelli of Hair by Gino, offers a variety of extension techniques. Basic Cord Tracking Technique - Using this method thin tracks of hair are created horizontally on the scalp and then reinforced by weaving threads using a lock stitch. The tracks are positioned to follow the natural hair pattern which differs slightly on each client. Tracks are placed close to the scalp in order to support the weave piece. The weave piece is attached using a weaving thread. After attachment the client's natural hair is combed to cover the tracks. This results in extensions that look great and last a long time. One concern with this technique is that it can place stress on the scalp and hair if it isn't done pro  [more info...]

Dallas Fashion Consultant, Julie Bartlett, asks what do your shoes say about you? [caption id="attachment_62" align="alignright" width="156" caption="T-strap Pump"][/caption] Dressing well begins with the shoes, and wearing a different pair of shoes each day will lengthen the life of the shoe as you allow it to 'breath' while it rests. You also give your feet a break by having an assortment of heels to wear during the week, perhaps even during the day depending on your foot activity. Each season you will find a variety of trendy shapes and colors which can add a sense of fun to your shoe collection. While a closed-toe shoe is the foremost professional choice, during summer temps a peep-toe will also do the job. Just make sure th  [more info...]

Dallas Fashion Consultant, Julie Bartlett with Colour IQ, answers the question, 'Is My Dress Too Short?' With summer temps rising, it's normal to want to wear less fabric in hopes of staying cool, but there is such a thing as being too short, especially in the workplace. By definition, proper business attire covers more skin than it reveals. So, if more than two inches above the knee is exposed, then it is not appropriate in a business environment. Naturally, that depends on the business she is wanting to conduct. Consider these guidelines: In a social setting such as a party, a girls night out, a first date? She should be able to sit, bend down to pick something up off the floor, or lean over a counter without the world visua  [more info...]

Dallas Fashion Consultant Julie Bartlett with Colour IQ says "Put Your Best Socks Forward" Gentlemen, what about your sock collection? Are there really 'rules' when it comes to socks? Yes! First, it is important to understand that your shoes should match or be a shade darker than your hemline. As to sock options, there are two schools of thought. One option is to match your hemline. The other is to match your shoes. In business, as in formal attire, it is best to match your socks to your shoes. This is easy to do when a man wears a black shoe with a black slack. But what if he's wearing a black shoe with a navy slack? Match the shoe. Even more difficult, are those 'business casual' ensembles. While I would never e  [more info...]

Dallas Fashion Consultant Julie Bartlett with Colour IQ offers some thoughts on how to honor our veterans.

Today, let's take a moment to remember the rest of the story or 'the why'. The combination of these elements will help you identify your Stylattitude! You've heard me say that our clothing choices make a visual statement which reflects how we feel about ourselves. Those who want to dismiss the importance of personal appearance are merely trying to excuse their laziness. Those who learn how to make a great visual statement know it's a worthwhile investment. The why matters and determines your St  [more info...]

Dallas Fashion Consultant, Julie Bartlett, with ColourIQStyle.com, offers her perspective on an article in the Dallas Morning News. As your Dallas Fashion Consultant, I hope you read the Sunday, May 2, Business Research article on page 8D, from McClatchy Newspapers, entitled 'CEO's Sharp Looks Pay Off, Study Shows'. The study, though very limited in scope, linked a CEO's looks to his paycheck. The study was conducted using photo's of white males only and found that those who "looked competent" were paid more than those who appeared to be "more likable, more warm, more trustworthy, but less competent". The professors were hoping to prove that corporate pay structures are not as influenced by looks, as say, political vote casting. The a  [more info...]

As your Dallas Fashion Consultant, I'm committed to teaching my clients how to always look fabulous. [caption id="attachment_14" align="alignright" width="198" caption="Click to enlarge"][/caption] The way we dress ourselves is a reflection of how we have first 'addressed' ourselves. By this, I mean, that our attire is our emotional statement of our own self-perceived value that we show to those around us. Those who dress themselves well show up as being more confident in themselves than those who do not. The value of looking fabulous affects every relationship we have. It is easier to be heard when we look fabulous because we have eliminated visual distractions. Looking fabulous confirms what we say we know because it estab  [more info...]
