If you're out there you're vulnerable. People prefer to disappear in life, to repress their personality. That's not living. It's dying. I see them all over the place, the walking dead.

Nail that contract with the perfect cocktail dress

Isn't it sickening sometimes when its hard to close a business deal or both parties reach an impasse? its one of the most frustrating circumstances. But powerful women in business-yes you- who know their strenghts as well as weaknesses know that one great way to close a deal is by hosting a cocktail or going out to dinner with the prospective client. All of your trips to the gym and yoga classes even the tedious pilates excercise routine finally payoff when its time to throw on that designer cocktail dress. Ladies you've worked very hard and you legally earned all the money you got so spare no expense in making your client know that you're a professional and can be trusted with money. Believe it or not how you dress is a great medium in which people use to judge you. One good dress is this metallic lace dress by Marc Jacobs it costs $225. I love the round neck with accordion pleated trim. You better not wear a dress with a neck that's too low you'll come off as a ### your aim is to look sexy but still within reason. Besides its a business date not a romantic one. Another great feature of this dress is its empire waist, means that it can be of service even when you are pregnant.
The silk lame dress pictured first from left is also by Marc Jacobs , retails for $1,600 while the tulip dress also by Marc retails for $995. Any of these dresses are good to go and would get the job done.

After dealing with your dress you need to invest in a good trench, one that's royal and elegant. The first one is the taffeta ruffled trench by D&G would fork just a little in excess of $2,700 :) while the red Fendi cotton twill trench retails for $1,850. Any of these trenches will make your client want to take a long walk with you outside so people can see how elegant his companion for the night is.


After you done with you whole outfit you need a good clutch purse to hold your blackberry and keys do not leave them in your trench coat on no occasion. The canvas pochette from the top (left) cost just $250 while the Rayure clutch next to it costs $1,860. From the bottom, the multicolor clutch designed by Murakami cost $775 and the next Motard clutch costs $1,530. Again any of these clutches will keep your client literally clutched to your side and paying attention to what you have to say and at the end of the day you've got yourself a deal.
