On the Edge: Take note of what people notice first when meeting you

Tight budgets call for creative solutions. To look your best take notice of what most people notice. We view people as a package so it is what is on the edge of your body that is noticed most often so that's what we should concentrate on when putting ourselves out there.

-Clean shiny hair frames your face and is the first think we look at when meeting or greeting another.

-Whether you are shaking hands or using your hands to express yourself, clean and neat nails are essential. Neutral colors show chips less than red. No polish is just fine.

-Shoes can make an inexpensive outfit look great. No worn down heels or scuff marks. Buy the best you can afford and keep them in good shape.

With what little time we all have to concentrate on our appearance, I assure you these simple things will go a long way.
