Nxiba ukuphumelela ukunciphisa umzimba
Umxholo
Ukujonga emva kwimifanekiso "yeentsuku zam ezibhityileyo," ndiyayithanda indlela iimpahla zam ezijonge ngayo kum. (Asithi sonke?) Ijini yam ilingana kakuhle, yonke into ibonakala ngathi indincamathele kwindawo elungileyo, kwaye neefoto zam zokudada azindenzi ndiphambane.
Kodwa namhlanje ndiyoyika ukugqogqa kwikhabhathi yam ukuze ndifumane into yokunxiba. Kwaye ukuthenga? Ndiphantse ndalibala ukuba kunjani ukungena kwigumbi lokunxiba elinerakhi egcwele iziqwenga ezikhethwe ndim, ndinemincili yokuzama. Ngokubanzi, xa ndityebe kakhulu, ukunxiba kuyatsala.
Kodwa ngenxa yokuba ndisebenza ukuze ndibuyele kwimo yam endiyifunayo akuthethi ukuba kufuneka ndihlale ndijonge ijean yam ebhityileyo, ndilangazelele usuku endinokungena ngalo kwimbonakalo yam endiyithandayo. Esi sityhilelo siza kum emva kokuba ndibenethuba lokudibana noCarly Gatzlaff we-La Mode Wardrobe Consulting onamava okusebenza nabathengi abafuna uncedo lokunxibisa ukuguquguquka kobunzima. Ngengcebiso yakhe, akukho mfuneko yokuba ndithenge ikhabethe elitsha ngazo zonke iiponti ezili-10 endilahlekileyo, kwaye ndiziva ndibhetele ngendlela endijongeka ngayo ngexesha lenkqubo.
U-Gatzlaff usandul 'ukuza endlwini yam kwaye wakroba egumbini lam ukubona into endisebenza nayo. Ndifunde okuninzi kutyelelo lwakhe. Weza nempahla yokunxiba kunye nezibhambathiso endingazange ndiziqwalasele!
Nazi iingcebiso ezintandathu andinike zona ezindincedayo ukuba ndizive kwaye ndibukeke ndimangalisa kwiingubo zam ngelixa ndisebenza ukufikelela usukelo lwam:
1. Nxiba okwangoku. UGatzlaff ucebisa ukuba andijongi kude kakhulu ngaphambili, kodwa endaweni yoko ndibeke iimpahla zam ubukhulu bam ngoku ezenza ndizive ndilungile kwaye ndilungile kulusu lwam.
2. Gcina isitokhwe ngezinto ezisisiseko zemihla ngemihla. Okwangoku, uthi, tyala imali kwizinto ezisisiseko ezibalulekileyo zemihla ngemihla, kwaye ugcine izinto ze-accent ukwenzela kamva. Ubuncinane ezimbini "ezisisiseko" ngasinye ezilingana nazo kubunzima bonke. Oko kuthetha ukuba kuya kufuneka unezibini zeebhulukhwe zeebhulukhwe, ibhulukhwe yokunxiba, okanye izikethi (kuxhomekeke kubuninzi bokusetyenziswa) ezinokuthi zitshintshwe ngezixhobo.
3. Tyala imali kwiimpahla ezinokucutheka. Undixelele ukuba ndithenge izinto ezinokuncipha njengoko ndisiya ndincipha. Umzekelo, iintloko kunye neengubo kwijezi ye-matte okanye izinto ezizoluliweyo kuzo zikhetho olukhulu.
4. Ukufikelela. Yonwaba kunye nezixhobo! Bayayidibanisa nayiphi na impahla ngaphandle kobunzima bakho.
5. Hamba neprints. Ukuqala kwam ukudibana noGatzlaff, ndandinxibe isikhafu esimnyama esimnyama. Wachaza ukuba ukhetho olungcono luya kuba nesikhafu esikhaphukhaphu, esiprintiweyo. Iiprinta ezincinci zenza imimangaliso yokufihla amaqhuma kunye namaqhuma-zongeze kwiwadi yakho!
6. Musa ukoyika ukuqhayisa ngefomu yakho. UGatzlaff uthi akufuneki sizifihle phantsi kwezinto ezigqithisileyo (sinetyala!). Endaweni yoko, qiniseka ukuba iimpahla zakho zilingana kakuhle kwaye ugxininise kwinto onayo. (UGatzlaff wakhankanya ukuba ndinendaba zendalo esinqeni kum! Indlela elula yokuyigxininisa: Tuck in and belt.)
Ekugqibeleni ndiye ndaqonda ukuba ifashoni yam ayifanelanga ukuba ibandezeleke ngenxa nje yokuba ndinobunzima obuthile ekufuneka ndinciphe, kwaye kulungile ukonwaba endleleni! Kwaye, ukuzama iindlela ezintsha kunye nokulungisa ikhabethe yam sisikhuthazi esikhulu.
