Today has been a good day! I recently got a tv gig as a presenter and it was day two of shooting, super awesome. I just love the camera.
Now with tv programmes there is wardrobe, make up, etc, this is a part I struggled with because I love doing my own make up & I'm my own stylist. I'm also blessed with a small upper body & curvy lower body, which makes dressing me a tad tricky! I'm those types that need tailored clothes I guess, the joys of being 'bootylicious.
So anyway, as I put on my dress for today's shoot - which did not fit the way I would have liked, it got me thinking how important it is to dress for your body shape. Wearing something inappropriate for you body shape could ruin your swag. You could end up looking frumpy instead of sexy and curvy, uncomfortable instead of confident.
Secondly - Make up! Owee!! tv make up is heavy, together with the lights it translates beautifully on screen, but no amount of make up will make you look flawless if you don't take care of your skin. I confess I'm bad with drinking water, bad! That's lesson number two for me..water, water, water,water!!!!
Lesson three- nothing beats your own personal style! As soon as I got out of the designer's dress I jumped into my floral skirt, chunky T Bar Heels and statement gold necklace & I was right back on Bee's beat! My presenter persona is just as much Bee but putting on clothes chosen by myself was like putting back on my original skin! The crew commented on the two "Bees" the transformation. LOL. I owe both persona's but nothing beats being YOURSELF! The clothes we wear are an extension of our personalities! Let your personality shine through,YOU is the best you can be ..right!? RIGHT!
In other news, the Executive Producer asked me to bring some stuff from my own wardrobe for the next shoot! Happiness!!
