How to reinvent your look

Aaaah, so spring is finally here. There's an old saying that goes something like this-"in the spring a young man's fancy turns to love". Ever notice that to be true? Sure, you have, you're getting twice as many looks from the guys on the street or at the office. So you really want to catch someone's eye or even make the head of your significant other turn.

Reinvent your look. One of the simplest, quickest ways to do that is with a new hairstyle. To reinvent your look it doesn't have to be a drastic change like cutting your long, flowing tresses into a spike do. Just let it loose and add some volume and body, or if your look is to wear it down and long, sweep it up into an easy french twist. You can even add a few highlights to give dull, winter hair a fresh, sun-kissed look.

Another simple reinvention of your look is to change or update your makeup. Just lipcolor can transform your entire look. Going from the everyday color you wear to a deeper or brighter shade is a much more dramatic move than you realize intil you hear comments about it; and believe me you will.

Put a little spice in your wardrobe too. If you're a tee and jeans kind of gal, invest in a really, fancy or dressy blouse to give those jeans an updated, classy look. The same goes for you ladies that are always in the power suit or skirt ensembles. Try relaxing your look with a pair of crisp, new jeans or khakis and a jewel toned tank. You will not even be able to imagine how just changing from always casual to dressy or uptight to loose will make others take that second and even third look.

Be sure to add color to your wardrobe. Color gets noticed and if you're always wearing basic black, add a little punch with red or even purple. This is as easy as changing your handbag to a bright color.

A very subtle and really drastic change is your perfume. Believe it or not others will notice. You can change to a popular fragrance or even an older, dated perfume, but just be sure it is different from your everyday. Perfume lifts the spirits and makes people feel different things, energized, sassy, classy, sporty or even romantic. For a light change just try one of the fragrant body mists or imposter fragrances, or purchase a really nice perfume with staying power for an all out reinvention of self.

You will be amazed at what any of these small changes can do for you, because if you feel great about these small changes it will also come out in your personality and when you feel more confident you will be and act with an air of self-confidence. That is a total makeover in itself toward reinventing you look. Just have fun with it and you'll be amazed at the results.
