Dress in Gray for Confidence

Whether we like it or not, the colors we choose to wear, send a message about us.  Gray is the perfect color to wear to a job interview.  Gray, the pastel black, represents confidence and sophistication.  The interviewer will be more interested in you, focused on what you have to say and not distracted by how you chose to dress and what you’re wearing.

Gray is not a color just for grandmother’s and for, mother of the bride, dresses.  It is simple elegance and a fashion class act used in many different forms of women’s clothing and fashion accessories.  You will see it in anything from textured fabrics to flowing silk, or lace, evening wear.  Gray makes a beautiful background for brightly colored floral prints.  It’s many different hues never go out of style.

Pairing silver accessories with a gray dress is so classy.  As with a little black dress, the color gray is perfect to accessorize with any other color shoes and / or purse, but going with a monotone look in all gray (your outfit, your shoes and your purse) is timeless.

For a confidence boost, dress yourself in gray and dress your purse in gray.

Dress Your Purse with a French Theme

For the Sharon Barber Transformable Purse “Look” today, she is dressed with the look of old style Paris. In particular, the Moulin Rouge (French for Red Mill), the world famous cabaret in Paris, France.

Moulin Rouge is best known as the birthplace of the modern form of the can-can dance. The can-can dance evolved into a form of entertainment and led to the introduction of cabarets across Europe. Today, Moulin Rouge is a tourist attraction, offering musical dance entertainment for visitors from around the world.

Featuring fun and cheerful Moulin Rogue themed interchangeable purse accessories on our Brendi style. “The Look” is available dressed on the Brendi, Beebi and Debi styles with a custom order.

Women are Born to Shop

The definition of shopping to men and women are two completely different things. There are, of course, men that like to shop, but they are the minority shoppers and most just go get what they need and don’t stray from that purpose.  Our Sharon Barber Purses facebook fans agreed and these are a few of their comments. Here’s what these women said about shopping.

• I consider shopping a pastime, even if I don’t buy anything I love to go and see whats available. ~ Carol
• I just love shopping. ~ Susan
• Born to shop. ~ Terri

According to the Urban Dictionary:

For Females, shopping is …

A lifestyle, a pastime. No. A downright obsession. Whether it’s shoes, purses, clothes, body lotions or for a new boyfriend, women can never get enough shopping.

For Males, shopping is …

An occasional trip to the supermarket for something along the lines of booze, chips and possibly some soda.

I personally think shopping is great exercise, enjoyable and a fun way to get some girl time with your friends. What do you think?

Happy Shopping!

How to Dress for the Occasion

You have a special occasion to attend and, of course, for most girls our first thought is how to dress and what to wear. It depends on the occasion. Is it a wedding? Is it a party at the home of your boss. Is it to meet your future in-laws? You don’t want to over dress or under dress, so it’s a good idea to ask what the dress code is. Contact the host, or if you will be dining at an unfamiliar restaurant, call them to inquire.

For women, one thing that will take you just about anywhere is the simple little black dress. It can be dressed up or down using the right accessories. Pearls are always a great pairing for a little black dress. Using colorful scarfs and jewelry would give you some eye catching accents. Gold and / or silver are a safe bet and pop with a black dress or outfit. Make sure that your shoes are comfortable and easy to walk in. You could choose to wear any color shoe, just be sure that they compliment your other accessories.

If it’s a special occasion, the last thing you want to be concerned about is keeping up with and carrying around a big purse or leaving your purse with all of your valuables in it unattended. Choose to carry a smaller purse and only keep what your really need for the occasion in it. The color doesn’t have to match your shoes, but it does need to be compatible with the other colors you choose. Just as you can’t go wrong with a little black dress, you cant’ go wrong with a little black purse. With a transformable purse, you can simply dress your purse in black. Keep it simple and have fun.
