Dressing for your Body Type |

Welcome to Looking Your Best Inc
Greetings!
Happy St. Patrick's Day!
We could all use more "luck" this month! Celebrate the luck of the Irish on March 17th by wearing at least one green item. Although festive days turn outfits into costumes, keep it office friendly by wearing a green 4-leaf clover pin, a green button-up shirt or a green bracelet. Head-to-toe green, although slimming, will make you look like the Jolly Green Giant. I don't think that's the look you want. Have some fun; have some spirit; but don't overdo it - beware bright green sparkly eyeshadow and over accessorizing in green clovers.
Spring is on its way and it's time to tone up some of our winter bodies. In the meantime, read the Featured Article for easy and simple camouflage tips to look taller, slimmer, and more put together. Click Dressing for your Body Type to read the full article.
Stores are filling up with their spring fashions. I highly recommend visiting C'est Sera, a women and mens' clothing store with 3 locations in the city. See the sidebar ad for locations. They still have some winter pieces at 70% off.
The Love is in the Air contest winner from Valentine's Day awarded Lisa (age: 29; database technician) with an instructional make-up application, (reg. $149), with face profiling and how to apply a smoky eye appropriate for work. Check out her "before and after".
There are 2 career training sessions this month: Makeup Application on March 9th and 10th, and 5-day Image Consulting course from March 22nd to 26th. This will be the last training courses offered until late fall 2010. Call Shirley for more info, 780.235.5506 or click Career Training to learn more and register. "What Should I Wear" workshops are selling out. Last workshop before summer is May 8th. Makes a great Mother's Day gift or shared experience between mother/daughter/friends/neighbours. For more info or to register visit our Events page. Remember to tell me what you think by reading my blog. Coming in the April newsletter, Spring 2010 Fashion trends |

Komputers for Kids
Komputers for Kids donates computer systems to low income families that would not have otherwise been able to afford one. Looking Your Best Inc. has been a supporter for several years now and is asking for you to consider donating money or any computer equipment (new or used) to Komputer for Kids by contacting Peter at the website below or by calling Edmonton Tek at 780.945.6625. Thank you for your generousity!
Since the program's inception three years ago, we have donated over 785 computers to Edmonton and Area families. Donated computers are refurbished and then given to families in need. Monetary donations are used to purchase computer items from auctions or government surplus that we distribute after we make sure they are fully functional. Our ultimate goal is for every child, regardless of social status, to enhance learning and studying methods by advances in technology at school, and in the home. Each family is given the following items:
- Computer Tower (Specifications based on purchases from auctions or donations)
- Computer monitor
- Keyboard and Mouse
- Microsoft Office 2003 Student and Teacher Edition
Shortly we expect to be able to offer Shaw Cable System's Lite-Speed Internet for little or no cost to families of donated computers. At the current time, those families receive 100 hours of Dial-up service from AOL. Peter Skinner Komputer for Kids http://edmontontek.com/komputers-for-kids/ |
