My husband copied me on an email that he sent to one of his associates today. It was just too good not to share with all of you. See, we are going on an annual award trip next week. We are there to help host the associates who have truly exceeded...busted....burned up goals over the past year. It is an honor to get to be with this extraordinary group.
Every year my husband is asked some question about appropriate attire. One year he had a manager ask if he really needed to wear a tuxedo. This was one of the first years...so when he told me what the question was I said, "Yes, a tuxedo should be worn...it is an opportunity for the spouses, partners or friends to get dressed up and the company actually provides a tux if necessary. This is when all of your peers get to applaud you for a job more than well done. This is not the time to be underdressed!" Since that year, my husband has been all over the appropriate dress subject.
So, as usual, a comment about attire came up today. One of his associates told another that I was into fashion so choose their dress with that in mind. The associate, in good humor, sent my husband an email telling him how excited she was and that she was putting a lot of thought into her dress. She didn't want me to judge it poorly. Here is what he wrote back:
"One correction on my wife, Gini. Fashion is her passion and her business, but she is never critical. She does say that this is your shinning moment, so FEEL good about yourself! Safe travels and see you there!"
How fabulous is that! He totally understands that if you feel good....you look good. It has taken some time, but if he can get it, everyone can get it. So, if you are one of those women who says to yourself all the time that you are not attractive, or have things to hide....stop it! When you feel good....you will look good.
