Madonna knows it.. So does Nicole.
Your appearance is so important.
The world is captivated by Hollywood transformations, the new look Nicole, the super slim Kate and super mom Demi Moore’s gorgeous new body .
Pop stars and Movie stars alike are continually re-inventing themselves. Why ?
Because their smart…
When we change our looks, we also adopt a new attitude. We let go of the old attributes connected with that look and move on.
A makeover not only overhauls our physical appearance, it shakes up our psychology.
When we look good, we feel confident. It is hard to feel lousy, when you look a million dollars. You know how you feel when you pull on that new outfit.
Our appearance also communicates a great deal to others about ourselves. Over 55% of our communication and its effectiveness is determined by our appearance, our posture and our gestures.
Madonna reinvents herself regularly, and we have witnessed a transformation of her attitude and personal growth. Material girl to modern mum. Self obsession to self evolution.
By continuing to wow the world, her sales and popularity continues to soar, not to mention her bank balance.
Our greatest gift is our ability to change ourselves, both physically and emotionally. Modern grooming and deportment schools are providing the professional services of stylist, colourists and image consultants that many thought were only available to celebrities.
You to can change your life, it’s as simple as changing your look. After all it seems to have worked well for some.
PS. If you need some inspiration we have included the words to the image evolution anthem.
Madonna - Vogue Lyrics
From Seeklyrics.com.
Strike a pose
Strike a pose
Vogue, vogue, vogue
Vogue, vogue, vogue
Look around everywhere you turn is heartache
It's everywhere that you go [look around]
You try everything you can to escape
The pain of life that you know [life that you know]
When all else fails and you long to be
Something better than you are today
I know a place where you can get away
It's called a dance floor, and here's what it's for, so
Chorus:
Come on, vogue
Let your body move to the music [move to the music]
Hey, hey, hey
Come on, vogue
Let your body go with the flow [go with the flow]
You know you can do it
All you need is your own imagination
So use it that's what it's for [that's what it's for]
Go inside, for your finest inspiration
Your dreams will open the door [open up the door]
It makes no difference if you're black or white
If you're a boy or a girl
If the music's pumping it will give you new life
You're a superstar, yes, that's what you are, you know it
(chorus, substituting "groove" for "move")
Beauty's where you find it
Not just where you bump and grind it
Soul is in the musical
That's where I feel so beautiful
Magical, life's a ball
So get up on the dance floor
(chorus)
Vogue, [Vogue]
Beauty's where you find it [move to the music]
Vogue, [Vogue]
Beauty's where you find it [go with the flow]
Greta Garbo, and Monroe
Deitrich and DiMaggio
Marlon Brando, Jimmy Dean
On the cover of a magazine
Grace Kelly; Harlow, Jean
Picture of a beauty queen
Gene Kelly, Fred Astaire
Ginger Rogers, dance on air
They had style, they had grace
Rita Hayworth gave good face
Lauren, Katherine, Lana too
Bette Davis, we love you
Ladies with an attitude
Fellows that were in the mood
Don't just stand there, let's get to it
Strike a pose, there's nothing to it
Vogue, vogue
Oooh, you've got to
Let your body move to the music
Oooh, you've got to just
Let your body go with the flow
Oooh, you've got to
Vogue
