Being able to explain to young girls the importance of how they look and communicate was a great honor. Today, I spoke to a group of young girls with the Imagine Me Project. They were attending a retreat at the Roosevelt State Park in Morton, MS. I felt so inspired to continue my journey teaching others how to look and communicate. It was an amazing experience to help young women prepare for their future. Knowing how to dress in a professional setting is so important. It can make or break your career. These young girls were able to "drill" me on several topics, including makeup, skincare, and dressing on a budget. It was unbelievable at how conscious these young girls were about the importance of taking care of themselves. The Imagine Me Project is making an everlasting impression on the lives of these young girls. I was happy to contribute in helping these young girls develop into successful women!

For Immediate Release

Image Consultant Instructs Seminar Attendees on Body Image

Pearl, MS – While some people struggle to find something to wear, many people don’t value the importance of selecting clothing specifically for their body. They have not mastered the “art of dressing their body.”

That’s the opinion of Cassandra Hawkins Wilson, an image consultant and president of Sensational Image Consulting.

On February 9, 2008 at the Pearl Public Library in Pearl, Ms, Wilson held a seminar, entitled “Dressing the Body You Have.”

Wilson says, “Many women have an assumption about what body type they are. However, when taught the successful strategies of dressing their body, several women are amazed that their assumption is wrong.”

Among the successful body dressing strategies Wilson outlined in the seminar:

1. Body Basics. An easy way to understand your body is to simply measure your body. According to Wilson, body measurements can help women identify weight gain and identify weight gain and prepare for alterations.
2. Applying the Principles of Art. While you need not be an artist, you will dress better if you apply the principles of lines, shapes, colors, textures, and proportions to your body.
3. Choosing Your Body Silhouette. Wilson advised on the steps to choose their body type. “The best way to determine your body silhouette,” says Wilson, “is to use your body measurements.”
4. Highlighting and Camouflaging. “Most people give up on looking their best too early,” says Wilson. She cited numerous techniques that prove to highlight assets and camouflage flaws.

This is what seminar attendees had to say:

* Sandi Beason of Byram referred to the seminar and the information received as ‘top of the line.”
* Kathern Qualls of Pulaski was anxious to upgrade her wardrobe.
* Marlena Reynolds of Jackson enjoyed the interactive learning and Q/A session.
