A
s winter ends most of us start
to think about Summer and
(unfortunately) for many of our
clients the thought of Summer can be
daunting… Summer often means less
oversized clothing, baring more skin and
sometimes feeling ‘blah’ as you have just
come out of months of hibernation under
lots of layers.
What if we told you that you could
leave your winter hibernation feeling
sexy and stylish?!?!
Well you can AND you do not need
to lose weight, get a tan, eat more kale or
go for a run if you don’t want to. No! You
just need to implement our “Seven Steps
To Sexy”!
Before we get to the steps there is
something you need to understand…
What it actually means to be Sexy?
Being sexy means:
you are connected to your inner self
you have a positive attitude, approach
and outlook on life
you always flaunt your best curve…
your smile!
you are confident with who you are
you feel good about how you look as
you know you are doing all you can to
feel your best
you know how to have fun and be
playful
you don’t dress too revealing but
rather leave something for the
imagination

except the same in return
Time to embrace YOU
Do this by listing below 5 things you

beauty)…TIP: refer to the above for list of

As you can see, “being sexy” really is
more about how we feel and act and less
about how we look and what we wear.
So before we move any further we want
you to understand that being sexy is all
about…
“Learning how to achieve a healthy
self esteem and stylish disposition that
ultimately empowers you and enriches your
life as a woman.” – Sam Woods.
The secret to achieving this healthy
self esteem and stylish disposition
externally is with the below “Seven Steps
To Sexy”!
Wear a beautiful perfume and/or
body lotion – Scent is not only the
most powerful memory trigger, it is
also another method of expressing our
personality and style. Fragrance choice is
very personal and differs from person to
person, therefore making aroma another
physical component of our individualism
can compliment and complete our
personal style. Tip Don’t just save your
fragrance for special occasions, treat
yourself and those around you everyday
with your signature scent.
Walk and stand with poise –
Confidence really is the sexiest thing
a woman can wear so walk with your
head high, tummy in and shoulders
back ALWAYS! It is amazing how our
body language can effect how we feel
and other’s reactions and responses
to us. Next time you don’t feel overly
comfortable in a situation or an outfit
you may be wearing, muster up the
confidence to stand tall and walk with
assurance and you will be astonished at
how differently you will feel and how
positively others will respond to you.
Tip To get an honest understanding of
how you walk, sit and stand, practice
these movements in front of a full length
mirror. Sometimes how we think we look
can be very different to how we actually
do, and mirrors don’t lie.
Have fun and don’t take yourself
too seriously – Life is meant to
be enjoyed not endured and it is way
too short to spend it being miserable.
Unfortunately, life can dish some
challenging moments that can be out
of our control and some people do get
more of a share than others. However,
experience has taught us that no matter
what we are dealt if we can try to find
something positive (no matter how
small) from a situation then it can make
everything just a little easier.
Smile with your eyes – When we
smile from our heart our emotions
are expressed through our eyes and our
entire face seems to radiate. Maybe this
