Are you someone who truly loves the holidays but every year there are certain obligations that bring you down?
I’ve been there and sometimes there’s no way of getting out of events with friends or family, but how do you turn these gatherings into a positive experience.
Over the years I’ve talked about setting your intentions to be positive and enjoy yourself prior to attending the event. I recommend making lists of positive aspects of all the people that challenge you, and imagine yourself in a golden bubble that protects you from any negative interactions.
Now I want to share two more tools that will boost your mood and make certain that only good things will come to you at these gatherings. I learned this magic formula from Tom Ford the Fashion Designer. Tom believes that fragrance is the most immediate way to make a powerful, individual statement of your signature style. Perfume has the ability to tell a story about you and leave a lasting impression that can attract others and leave them wanting more.
So simply spray your favorite scent and see how it lifts your mood in seconds and as the day goes on you simply sniff your scent when a negative mood gets triggered and POOF! instant uplifting thoughts flow into your mind.
Hey, you can even get creative with this by wearing scents you know someone doesn’t like if you just wish they would avoid you. This is probably a sure fire way that they will!
Tool #2, be bold and wear a bright or deep lip color!
I’ve always talked about making a statement with your wardrobe and here’s a simple way to do so with your make up.
Now you may say I don’t look good in bold colors but that’s not true you’ve probably just tried on the wrong color. There is a bold color every women can wear and it’s about being open to try it and experience the power you feel by making a simple yet bold statement.
To find your perfect bold color head over to Sephora or your favorite makeup counter and ask the makeup artist to assist you in finding the perfect bold color lipstick just right for you. You may select a bold pink, red, coral or brown lipstick – there is a perfect color for your skin tone.
Each time you wear this color feel the energy shift as you transform into this more confident side of you. You will receive responses from people some will love it and others may not, but it doesn’t matter as long as you feel good.
So now head out to find that perfume and lipstick that will boost your confidence and look forward to these holiday events and obligations. Make it an adventure with your new confident look!
I will share that my favorite perfumes are from Tom Ford, Jasmine Rouge (I call this date night perfume 😉 Black Orchid, Cafe Rose, Velvet Orchid and Santal Blush.
My favorite Bold Lipsticks are Scarlet Rouge, Cherry Lush and Crimson Noir.
Let me add one more thing, Tom Ford is a very luxurious brand and when you invest a bit more in something you love it increases your abundance energy. Now that doesn’t mean you have to buy these luxury items, but just consider that if you are someone who is always depriving yourself one lipstick for $20-50 will not break the bank and it will make you feel bold and confident!
Now it’s your turn, do you have a favorite perfume of bold lipstick that makes you feel sexy, confident and luxurious? Share your comments below!
Love and Success,
