I was browsing through my flickr when up popped a picture posted by none other that the doyenne of fashion herself Mimi Juneau of Mimi's Choice. The pic is of a stunning suit by Swaffette Firefly of SF Designs and is just one of her latest offerings. This prompted me to write this piece on power dressing for the ladies of SL. 
I mean really, how could I not, You all should know just how hot you too could look ....
Adding a blazer to your
outfit is one of the easiest tips for modern power dressing. A well fitted
blazer will instantly smarten up your outfit. For a corporate look team a
tailored blazer with cigarette pants and patent pumps. Right now the trend is
for matching suit sets which is lucky for us as it just screams power dressing. A classic tip for power
dressing is to wear well fitting, tailored clothing.
You don’t have to stick to fitted,
tailored clothes all the time. Another way to work some power dressing magic
into your wardrobe is with luxurious textures. Textures like silk and cashmere
are perfect for modern power dressing.

When you’re choosing
jewellery for your outfit, keep it classy and elegant. You want pieces that are
stylish but not too trend-based or overpowering. Keep jewellery simple and avoid
anything too costume-y. Chunky man-style watches are a stylish option if you
want a bolder piece of jewellery that is still fairly classic.
Black and grey colours are
pretty standard for power dressing, but experiment with colour where you can.
Right now we’re seeing a lot of designers embracing boldly coloured matching
suit sets. If the occasion allows for it, try wearing a brightly coloured
outfit. Red, yellow, orange, blue – take your pick! Alternatively, try adding
some colour in the form of accessories like your shoes or a bag. Either way, a strong dose of colour will give
off powerful vibes.

Shoes can say a lot about a
person. When it comes to power dressing, a pair of heels is an instant
confidence booster. In most cases, you can’t go wrong with a basic black pair
of pumps. Choose ones in a patent finish with a more pointed toe for a bit of
extra oomph. If you’re in a more creative setting, experiment with different
shoe styles that best fit your personality.
When it comes to modern power dressing, you’ve got to wear
what you love. Being confident in your
looks is a major part of oozing confidence and power. It’s all about owning
your outfit and your look.
