Hottest Trends to Update Your Wardrobe with Accessories

Spring is here and a woman's thoughts turn to...
updating her wardrobe.

 We've got some advice on how to inexpensively look current with accessories.

We've also got a great way for you to purge your wardrobe, acquire a few new outfits and help a fantastic women's charity in Edmonton.

Terry and I were invited to present tips on personal branding at the Edmonton Woman’s Show (Terry got to be an honorary woman for the weekend.) Part of our stage presentations focused on how to use the latest accessory trends to revitalize your existing wardrobe.

I invited two of my colleagues and friends Charmin Rockwell and Nikki Van Dusen to model. (Terry refused to model. Just as well, he looks terrible in a shift.) The three new accessorizing trends we showed were 1 - jungle inspired, 2 - Brazilian brights and 3 - feminine/romantic.

Terry's comment - I hope Joanne isn't implying that I'm shiftless :)

A lesson in maintaining your integrity and being a class act. (not by the Donald, but by an apprentice)
