Changing Careers, Changing Wardrobes

Several women are now making the leap from careers in Corporate America to being their own boss in the creative industry. As entreprenuers, most of their "extra" income is put towards building the business, leaving little money to build a new wardrobe.

It truly takes guts to go out on your own and we're going to help you make the transition. First, hold on to your black, blue, gray suits. You can even hold on to those "sensible" black pumps. Use these pieces as the foundation for your new wardrobe. Then, try adding the following pieces to your update your wardrobe to your current position.

- Two pairs of comfortable strappy heels- one in black and one in some outrageous color like hot pink. - Buy shoe jewelry (like the old school shoe buckles like your grandma used to wear). You can find them at Nordstroms or at Bakers Shoes. You are going to put these on your old "sensible" shoes. As an event planner, you will be running around quite a bit and you still need to be comfortable. - Three slip tops: one sequined, one like a camisole, and another with a slight shimmer. These tops should fit very well and should be any color but black. - As many brooches as you can get your hands on. You will use these to accessorize your current outfits. - Two nice party dresses in any color but black. Bluefly.com has hot dresses from designers like Nicole Miller and ABS Allen Schwartz for exceptionally reasonable prices. - One tailor bouclé blazer in pink or purple. Believe it or not, Wal-Mart has an adorable one from their George Line for $26. - A nice cashmere sweater set. It's classic and can go with everything. Score a sweater for well under $60 from stores like Macys or Smartbargains.com

The above items can help you easily transform your wardrobe from corporate drag to perfect planner. As an event planner, you must be stylish, and nothing is more stylish than the color black. For evening events, take that black suit and pair it up with a colorful sequined top and a pair of strappy heels (head directly to DSW shoe warehouse for evening shoes from folks like Via Spiga at ridiculously low prices). Add the brooches along with cute button earrings and Voila! You have the perfect planner outfit. For events during the day, wear either a pair of pants or a skirt from one of your non-black suits with your cashmere twin set. Again, throw on one or two brooches, some simple pearl earring and a pair of your sensible shoes (don't forget the shoe jewelry) and you will be ready to go! Now go forth and plan!
