Hello, lovelies! I hope this post sees you well. If you have been following along on instagram you may have heard that I will be working from home till 2021. This doesn’t come as a shock to me however, I have noticed myself getting a tad lazy with how I dress & more working from my bedroom opposed to my office. It has been 4.5 months since I haven’t been working in my company’s office, I think this lull I am in is only natural. 5 more months of working from home which means 5 more months of virtual meetings, more time of family zoom chats, & more.
Here are some easy tips that help me feel call ready always:
Confidence: Bring your A game. You are fabulous & know what you are doing. Ensure to exude this through your call. Make sure to bring up some valid points, points that are backed up by data always help me feel more confident.
Lighting: Make sure your lighting is complimenting your skin. Meaning, that the lighting isn’t dark but, isn’t washing you out. I do utilize my ring light when I am presenting but, sometimes the light from my screen is good enough. Also, make sure your background is aesthetically pleasing.
Easy Outfit: We all have seen memes or videos about people wearing a super professional top with pj bottoms or no pants at all. Honestly, when I have a full look I feel more put together & productive. I opt for more easy looks. Recently, I have been rocking tanks with skirts (like this exact look pictured) or tanks with linen pants. These outfits are comfortable yet put together.
Statement Jewelry: Add a statement necklace or statement earrings but not both at the same time as that could look overwhelming. Utilizing these accessories will help polish your look. Sometimes I toss on a headband as well. In this look I added this necklace by NVSME, a stud earring would compliment this nicely, & a headband for a complete look. Our friends over at Best Dressed are also putting together accessory boxes to help elevate your outfits effortlessly. You can even customize your own!

Comfy Shoes: I have not worn heels in months & why would I?! When you are home you want to be comfortable. Wearing shoes truly completes my look, deters me from wanting to lounge on the couch or bed, & helps me feel more productive. The shoes I wear are sandals or flats.
Whether you use Microsoft teams, Zoom, or Skype for your personal or professional life these easy tips will help elevate your look. Happy calling!
