HOW TO CATWALK LIKE A MODEL
1.Choose the right shoes. If you're not used to walking on heels, get one that you'll be comfortable on.
2.Learn to stand like a supermodel. Practice your posture, throw your shoulders forward, and push your pelvis slightly forward. It might create the illusion that you're leaning forward a little.
3.Place the toes of your foot down first, then your heel, but keep most of your weight balanced on the ball of your foot rather than on the heel. It may feel strange, but keeping much of your weight on the ball of the foot gives you more of an elegant stride.
4.Put one foot in front of the other (literally). Toes should face outwards. Your footprints should form a zigzag. When done quickly, this gives the body that characteristic swing.
5.Make your stride look long and commanding by lifting your legs almost in the same fashion a horse would while doing trotting leg extensions.
6.Look straight forward, you must walk and strut your stuff like you know you're beautiful and you know that you're smokin' hot, and all the young men out there are going to be going crazy when they see you!
You could practice strutting like you mean it by listening to your iPod or mp3 player, or other musical device, put a hot song on and walk to the beat!
Have fun as you give it a trial

HOW TO DRESS TO A JOB INTERVIEW
Knowing what to wear on a job interview is half the battle of the interview itself. The old adage could never be so true, “You never get a second chance to make a first impression.”
When you’re going on a job interview, your appearance is extremely important. Whether or not you look professional or sloppy could play a huge role on if you get hired.
Now here are tips you could consider before picking what to wear, trust me I had to go asking people who do all kinds of jobs ranging from professional to artisan.
1.Check out the company culture. you should first take into consideration the culture of the company you are interviewing with, and dress accordingly. Ask yourself, does the company's employees wear suits everyday or do they wear t-shirts and jeans?
2.Nothing too fancy, nothing to casual. A suit is not always the best choice for what to wear on a job interview. If you show up wearing a suit and tie and all the employees are wearing shorts and flip-flops, you will look out of place, feel uncomfortable and give off the wrong energy. The same is true of the opposite. If you show up wearing shorts and flip-flops to a company that wears professional attire, you will be just confirming that you don’t fit into the company.
3.Match the interviewer. If you want to get the job, your choice of what to wear on a job interview should match or be slightly dressier than the normal work attire of the company. For example, if the normal work attire of the company is business casual, it’s ok to wear a suit to impress. If the normal work attire is casual, it’s ok to wear a business casual outfit to impress as well.
N/B
These are very important too
1. Make sure your clothes that are neatly ironed and press.
2. Make sure your clothing fits properly. If your pants or sleeves are too long or something is too loose or too tight you’ll look and probably feel awkward.
3. Don’t wear flashy jewelry. You’ll want the interviewer to pay attention to you, not your bling.
4. Dress according to the season. Don’t wear a stuffy turtleneck sweater in the middle of the dry season (except you wan die of heat, especially when there's no a/c).
5. Make sure you have a nice, clean haircut that makes you look well groomed (for the guys) and ladies pls do keep the hair-do simple, neat and elegant.
7. For men, make sure you shave and keep facial hair to a minimum.
8. For women, don’t wear anything that is too revealing. It’s best to keep your body parts inside your clothing and not be too exposed.
9. Avoid articles of clothing with loud, busy prints. It’s best to wear solid colors that flatter your skin tone.
10. For women, make you wear appropriate lingerie and/or pantyhose underneath your clothing. This will give you smooth lines and assure you don’t have visible panty lines on your backside.(You know what I mean)
11. For women, don’t overdo your makeup. Wear natural colors and avoid heavy eyeshadow, eyeliner and bright colored lipstick.
12. For pants outfits, make sure you wear a belt that matches the color of your shoes.
So, congratulations on getting the interview. Now, know you know exactly what to wear on a job interview so you can get the job.
