Decide what’s working (your hair? your career clothes?) and what has room for improvement (your makeup? your casual wardrobe?).

]]> 83554 16199 0 Tip Work with what you’ve got. There’s an old song that says you’ve got to “accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative.” If you’ve got great hair, invest in a good cut. If your posture is horrible, take up yoga or pilates.

]]> 83555 16200 0 Step Emulate Pick someone whose looks you love and see what style lessons you can learn from them. For example, crisp white tees may be the foundation of a chic yet unfussy look.

]]> 83556 16201 0 Tip Choose someone whose body at least somewhat resembles your own. Clothes that look great on six-foot-tall Uma Thurman are not going to look the same on the average 5’4” woman.

]]> 83558 16203 0 Step Update your hairstyle Update your hairstyle. It’s an easy way to make a dramatic change—and to make sure your look isn’t stuck in a time warp.

]]> 83560 16205 0 Step Get new frames If you wear glasses, update your look with new frames that flatter. If not, invest in a pair of good sunglasses that suit the shape of your face.

]]> 83561 16206 0 Step Get an eyebrow shaping Go for a professional eyebrow shaping. It’s an inexpensive way to instantly look more polished.

]]> 83562 16207 0 Step Consider a color change Consider changing your hair color. A good colorist can tell you what best complements your complexion.

]]> 83563 16208 0 Step Experiment Don’t be afraid to experiment with several styles until you find one that suits you.

]]> 83564 16209 0 Fact Known for his offbeat style, Andy Warhol bequeathed his signature wig to David Bowie, who later wore it when he portrayed Warhol in the 1996 movie Basquiat.
