Check out the happening networking events in Singapore in April. I can't actually find too many PURE networking events as many organisations are holding conferences and AGMs but here are a few for you to put in your diary.

Business Rocks

Normally the last Tuesday in the month. Check with the fab Gina Romero

Clients thing that in a colour analysis they'll get a little swatch and then they'll know what to buy and what to avoid. Yes absolutely, but its about more than that. An expert colour analysis with an image consultant will also talk about contrast and show you how to wear your colours.
Take a look at the contrast between your hair skin and eyes. The bigger the difference the more contrasting the colours should be. If you have mousy hair and eyes that are blended then bright colours will overpower you. You might get compliments on your outfit but no one will say how lovely your eyes are!
In the pictures above you can easily see that the ladies with the deeper amd more contrasing complexions look much better with the darker colours.
Take a look at the model in the first picture. When I added more contrast to suit her complexion, not only do her eyes sparkle but she also looks like she got promoted from photocopier to boardroom.
Not sure about colours then check out the colour analysis services that I offer at http://www.sharonconnolly.com/colouranalysis.html

 

 

Look at my client Jacqui Rankin, from AAM Advisory doing everything right when having her photograph taken for the most flattering look.  Here are my tips that she is following perfectly

• Stand with one leg a little behind the other and take the weight on the back leg
• Angle the body at 45 degrees for a slimmer look
• Drop the front shoulder down so that it is lower than the back one
• Hands on hips with fingers spread and make sure you can see a space between your elbows to show off your waist
• Lift your head up and then imagine your chin is resting forward onto a shelf to eliminate any double chin
• SMILE, but also put your tongue on the roof of your mouth to tighten up your jaw line.

Beautiful pictures by Sok Eng at Berry Happy Photography.  Check out more of my clients on her facebook page https://www.facebook.com/#!/BerryHappy.Photography?fref=ts
