Forever New Clothing’s Post

Does Clothing Matter? Absolutely, but Perhaps Not in the Traditional Sense In the past, a suit was the default professional uniform, regardless of industry. But over the last century, we've witnessed a steady evolution in clothing norms and what they signify. Today, perception reigns supreme. Clothing has become a powerful tool to connect with and appeal to your target audience. If you're trying to resonate with a younger demographic, that old Marks & Spencer suit might not cut it anymore. I truly believe the way I present myself has played a role in the growth of our brand. As a creative professional, I need to appear approachable yet polished - someone who understands the importance of cultivating the right perception. Ultimately, your clothing choices should align with the image you want to project and the specific audience you're trying to reach. It's about dressing with intention, not just defaulting to outdated definitions of "professional." What are your thoughts? How has your personal style influenced your career and ability to connect with clients or colleagues? #videoproduction #videobranding #videomarketing

A WEEKEND IN NEW YORK CITY (PART II: THE HUNT) • This new blog post is up now on andyvenez.com. See below to read the introduction. Click the link to read the full article. "Andy's Thread on Threads" is 50% off if you sign up between now and the end of the year. • “Get in, loser—we’re going shopping.” But not just anywhere—we’re in New York City with about five hours to kill. So, where are we going? To a handful of stores I’ve never stepped foot in before, but have been on my list of places to check out. While this trip is mostly about window shopping and trying on pieces to better understand the fit of various brands and their offerings, I’m also on a mission. I’m hunting for something elusive—both for a personal shopping client and myself: pants. Yes, pants. My legs and those of many of my clients are bigger than average with butts large enough to have their own orbit. If you’re not one of us, you might not realize just how challenging this is. The butt problem is a big one (literally) as often times the fit leaves too much to the imagination, isn’t very comfortable, and leaves no extra room if it gets any bigger. Spoiler alert: the trip was a successful one, but the solution came from a store I didn’t even know existed and wasn’t planning to visit. Not only did they have what I was looking for, but they also carried another item on my radar. Suffice it to say, this brand is now firmly on my watch list. Keep reading, loser, to find out who that is. • #menswear #mensweardaily #mensstyle #menswardrobe #mensfashion #mensclothing #mensclothing #style #stylist #styling #blog #menswearblog #menswearblogger #shoppingtips #shopper #shopsmart #athletic #athleticwear #athletes #mensstyleguide #holidaygifts #holidaygiftguide #holidaygiftideas #holidayshopping #holidaygifting #boston #bostonstylist #bostonstyle #bostonma #blackfriday #newyorkstyle

I recently passed on pair of Miss Sixty jeans (if you know you know) … anyway I passed them on to my niece. The jeans were still in perfect condition. Whilst, it felt like the right time to let them go, it made me think about how often we hold onto things—whether it’s a favorite pair of jeans, an old job title, or even ways of working that no longer fit who we’ve become. For those of who’ve been in their careers for a while, it’s easy to cling to what we know. But just like those jeans, some things don’t quite fit the same anymore. Letting go isn’t about forgetting where we’ve come from; it’s about making space for what aligns with who we are now. When I let go of those jeans, it wasn’t just about clearing space in my wardrobe—it was about recognizing that I’ve changed, my priorities have changed, and so has the way I show up at work. Sometimes, holding onto the old can stop us from fully stepping into the new. For me, it’s about trusting the timing. When we let go of what no longer aligns, we create room for fresh opportunities and new ways of contributing that feel right and aligned to who we are today. And that’s where the magic happens—when we show up in a way that fits our evolving selves, we find the right places and the right people who truly see us. #CareerEvolution #LetGoToGrow #SeasonedProfessional #ShowUpAuthentically So how about a flash back to 10,000 years ago … Eva then moved aside for Eva now. And the jeans get to live once more in someone else dreams.

Equal doesn't mean fair. Let's say you give a piece of fabric of the exact same size to three people and they have to use all of it to get a dress made. The first person is 4' tall. Their dress is so long. They leave the fitting room, they trip over it and fall. The second person is 5' tall. Their dress fits perfectly. They leave the fitting room feeling confident. The third person is 6' tall. Their dress doesn't cover everything a dress should cover. They refuse to leave the fitting room. Is this fair? They all got the exact same amount of fabric so it's equal. Policy often gets designed with the eye of making it equal but that doesn't make it fair. The cynic would say life isn't fair and we can't make it fair. But so much is in our control, I think there's a way that we can design with fairness and empathy in mind.

Title: Unwrap Your Gifts: Building Your Personal Brand with Authenticity 🌟 Happy 85th Birthday, Mom! 🌟 Today, I celebrate not only my incredible mom but also the wisdom she’s passed on. As a million-dollar saleswoman at the flagship Saks Fifth Avenue Store in NYC, she worked with high-profile clients like Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Pearl Bailey, and Maya Angelou. She even introduced Saks to the idea of the Personal Shopper concept—talk about innovative thinking! When I asked about her secret to success, she shared four principles that shaped her career: 🕒 Punctuality – Respect for time = respect for others. 📚 Product Knowledge – Knowing her merchandise made her invaluable. 🤝 Customer Understanding – She anticipated needs before they were spoken. 🫶 Honesty – Integrity fostered trust and built lasting relationships. She called these her gifts. Today, we’d call it her personal brand—an authentic reflection of her strengths and values. 💡 Takeaway: Your personal brand starts with your unique gifts. Think about what comes naturally to you, what others recognize in you, and where you consistently excel. 🔑 Authenticity is the key to standing out in today’s competitive market. Just like my mom, you can turn your natural gifts into a powerful personal brand that resonates. 💬 I’d love to hear from you! What traits or skills do you think define your personal brand? How have they shaped your journey? Let’s discuss below! ⬇️ #PersonalBranding #CareerGrowth #Authenticity #Wisdom

Barbie Beyond Dolls and Dreams ( the Art of Modernizing a Timeless Brand) Remember the live-action Barbie movie where the doll herself stepped out of the plastic world?

Meet Breja’e Washington, resident IT girl, multi-hyphenate creative, and most importantly, one of our talented content creator clients. Whether she’s curating a high-low fashion look, arranging an exotic bouquet, or planning a marquee event, her astute eye for creative direction and attention to detail make her one of our favorites to work with. When we first partnered with Brejae, our goal was to refine her brand strategy so she could confidently create content. Her main objectives were to increase visibility, grow her following, and land more brand partnerships. Here’s how we helped her grow her audience and secure her first five-figure deal with TJ Maxx: 1. Clarifying her content pillars: Content pillars shape your brand’s story with every post. For Brejae, if it didn’t align with fashion, beauty, or lifestyle, we either reframed it or cut it out. This helped keep her content focused and on-brand. 2. Building credibility: With over 8 years of experience as a wardrobe stylist, we leveraged her expertise to establish trust with her audience. The posts that performed best—and ultimately caught T.J. Maxx’s attention—were her fashion inspiration and advice content. 3. Setting a posting cadence: While consistent posting helps with algorithm visibility, we understand balancing content creation with a 9-5 and other projects isn’t always easy. While we recommend regular posting, we also remind Brejae to take breaks when needed and prioritize balance. Want to elevate your brand, gain more visibility, and land dream partnerships?
