Boston Image Consultants of OPTIMUM International Center for Image Management talk about makeovers.

March 9, 2008 - PRLog -- Individuals who have needed a personal or professional makeover have hired the professionally certified Image Consultant of Boston based image consulting firm OPTIMUM International Center for Image Management.  They perform this service by assessing an individual's whole image and then strategize on the makeover priorities. The strategy is not limited to wardrobe choices but to an overall personalized service that addresses, color choices, what optimizes one's figure, grooming regiment, lifestyle needs, and how to enhance and create one's signature personal and professional style. Many have taken advantage of this service from all walks of life (presidents of companies, mid -managers, sales people, people reentering the job force or the dating scene, celebrities, politicians, individuals looking for promotions or a better job).  Although many women have utilized this service they have also worked with many men who felt that this challenge was more acute because of their lack of knowledge.  
Testimonials:
"For my 35 birthday my wife surprised me with a makeover from OPTIMUM International Center for Image Management. I could not have been more pleased and excited. Ms Souris was insightful and proficient and delivered her Image expertise with warmth and professionalism. The makeover has made a big difference in my outer image and has given me the confidence to excel both in my personal and professional life. I highly recommend this service to anyone who needs an Image boost" Peter Robertson, September 2004.

"I hired Ms Souris when I found myself saying yes to the challenges: Do you want a signature style that is unmistakably yours? Do you have a closet full of clothes but nothing to wear? Are you frustrated with the thought of shopping for your wardrobe? Do you find yourself inappropriately dressed (underdressed, over dressed) for your professional and personal life?

It was the best present I could have given myself. I invested in me and recommend the experience to anyone who has has neglected their image ... Evangelia is the BEST." Thank you, Melinda E. July 2004
