Boost Confidence, Lower Anxiety and Feel Amazing!


   
Did you know that the clothes you wear can affect your anxiety and stress levels? Yes, that’s right- what you wear can impact how you feel more than you think! Wearing fashionable, comfortable clothing can make you feel better, thus making you more self-confident, charismatic, and likeable. That’s alway one of our goals at La Elite Fashions- our expert tailors create bespoke clothing made *just for you*, fitting you perfectly so you are stylish and comfortable- in what we think will turn out to be your favorite new suit or sports jacket! We also create custom clothing, simply bring in a photo of what you are looking for and we’ll be happy to design exactly what you’re looking for.

You are probably wondering why, if what you wear makes you happier and more confident, people do not invest more money and/or effort into their wardrobes? Many people simply seek comfort and are not motivated to invest in themselves, or don’t realize how amazing they will feel with just a little effort spent on their appearance. Next time you are out and about in a public area, look around. Who’s smiling, happy, confident? Do they seem well-groomed and fashionable? The secret is anyone who puts in the effort to dress well will typically feel happier, less anxious, and more confident!


Start by determining what makes you look good, what colors bring out your best features for example. Look for tips for your body type, are you tall, short, slim, sporty, nerdy? Look at your current wardrobe- what makes you feel good when you wear it? How do you picture yourself as a fashionable person in your head? Ultimately your goal is to have clothes that make you feel confident and happy.

Make sure your clothing is comfortable. Pain is not fashionable and has a negative impact on your charisma and stress levels. Think of alternatives to painful items when possible- for example, women not used to high heels can start with a lower chunky heel and move up as they feel more comfortable. Men who dislike ties may be able to get along without wearing one for all but the most elite events, instead dressing up with a nice vest and blazer.

The end goal is to feel your best, so search around on social media or magazines etc for inspiration and then stop by Le Elite Fashions in Tsim Sha Tsui for our professional help in choosing clothing that will make you feel amazing!

Colour Theory- Boost Social Media Reach, Engagement, and ROI


 

Social Media is visual. There’s a reason the biggest social media giants are highly image based- like Instagram, Snapchat, and Facebook. Images (and video) are now the most engaging content on all social media channels. Recently, contrast in images has been shown to drive conversion rates- while posting consistently and succinctly is still the top priority, those looking to further improve their social media reach may utilize these colour theory tips to boost your follower base. After all, to locate new customers and achieve financial success your company needs to have the right social media presence. PRDA offers a full digital solution, including Content Strategy, Corporate and Private training, Branded Content, Engagement, Risk Management, SEM/SEO, Digital Audits, Inbound marketing, Account creation, Analytics and Competitor Analysis, Publishing, Social CRM and Lead Generation. Contact us today for more info.

You may be asking yourself, how can colour contrast help grow my social media presence? Well, there are 3.2 billion active social media users, all eager for relevant content- and images attract their attention. When people view information paired with an image the retention rate is 65%, compared to a measly 10% of information heard. Posts on Facebook with images accumulate 2.3 times the engagement of Facebook posts without images. In today’s digital world it’s fairly easy to create a dependable stream of images, but it does take time, skill and planning to create high-quality images that both are truly memorable and match your brand. Hiring a skilled graphic designer is the best way to guarantee your images are appealing and aesthetically consistent- but if that is not in the budget we have a few quick tips below that beginners can apply to improve their company’s social media imagery.


With practice at applying color theory to your photos and graphics you create for social media, you’ll start to pick up the science and art behind creating images that show a consistent brand image and drive your followers to action. First, consider your brand’s current colour scheme- if you already have a professionally designed logo it’s likely that these colors are good choices for your base social media palette. Aim to include these base colours in your images in some way. You can use complementary colors to create contrast, a technique used to bring the eye to a focal point. Remember to also carefully consider your target audience and how their cultural background affects their reaction to certain colours. For instance, in Western cultures the colour white often represents purity and elegance, but in many Asian cultures, it symbolizes death and bad luck. As a quick reminder, check to be sure that the colours you select appear the way you want them too on both paper and digital screens- often hues can appear differently when applied digitally. You may need to edit and adjust images to get your desired effect.

How well is your current social media strategy performing? Ready for a Digital Transformation? PRDA provides a free consultation to best assess your social media marketing requirements. Contact us today to learn more.

Ways Pilates Helps Heal and Prevent Injuries



At Polestar Pilates Asia our students are trained in injury rehabilitation and prevention. Our comprehensive teacher training is an in-depth study of Pilates exercises and how to do them, but also a collaboration of exploring critical thinking, creative thinking, and problem solving. Our goal is to create a positive movement experience for our students, that they can then pass on to their students, resulting in empowering Polestar Pilates clients around the world to make healthy changes in the functions of their lives. We train Pilates Instructors to design Pilates programmes that will help their clients feel better- reducing daily aches and chronic pain, heal and prevent injuries, and enhance athletic performance.

Here’s a few of the ways Pilates can help rehab injuries and decrease or completely eliminate chronic pain:

Strengthening your core muscles is key to improving daily life activities and athletics- core muscles are much more than simply your abdominals. Your core muscles include the diaphragm, glutes, deep muscles around the spine and pelvic floor, and the transversus abdominus. No matter if you’re sitting at a desk all day or performing powerful athletic movements, strengthening your core will help your postural muscles support you, decreasing spinal load and reducing back pain- as well as lowering chance of injury.


Proper alignment is important for every body- anytime you perform movements using poor alignment your chances of injury goes up. This goes for daily movements like walking to the store, doing laundry, and picking up your kids, as well as athletic movements like running, cycling and sports. When your body is properly aligned you will feel better, perform better and even look better. Strength and proper movements learned from Pilates sessions allows your muscles to support your body in a more aligned position outside the studio- you’ll learn that even minor adjustments in hip and neck positions make a huge difference in your activities!

Body Awareness and Control- Pilates is low impact, making it a very safe exercise for people with injuries or arthritis. Clients are able to strengthen muscles, joints and enjoy a full body workout at a challenging level without experiencing pain. This is due to Pilates emphasis on control and body awareness- by improving focus on the body and it’s movements injured clients will feel much more confident and empowered as they learn how to move and position themselves in ways that don’t hurt.

With a Polestar instructor, Pilates is an incredibly safe and effective form of exercise to practice when injured or looking to remain injury free. We are proud to provide professional Pilates workshops across Asia. Check out Polestar Pilates Asia website for more details, or click here to find a Host Centre near you.

Social Media Insights into Boosting Online and Offline Sales


 
62% of online retail sales in Southeast Asia come from mobile, which is why it’s important to have the right mix of both digital and physical presence when it comes to boosting sales. PRDA's proven 5 step Social Media Strategy is your blueprint for success when it comes to boosting your digital presence- it’s been implemented in more companies across Asia than any other! Both retail and e-commerce companies should take note of the recent infographic that Forrester recently published, with interesting insights into the needs and wants of Southeast Asia shoppers. In brief, it highlights that over 164 million adults in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam shop online- but to take note that overall Southeast Asia shoppers still shop offline more frequently than online. Still, an online presence is VERY important… why? Because now, in the digital age, online and offline shopping are intertwined together- and to ignore one or the other is to lose a significant amount of customers, and ultimately sales.

For example, the average consumer today researches online before heading to the retail store- looking over reviews, comparing prices, scanning QR codes to get additional information, searching for coupons as well as viewing the store website and social media accounts. Some savvy consumers even research items online while in the retail store! 71% of respondents reported to the National Retail Federation (NRF) that they shop in “micro-minutes”- constantly shopping in the background while doing other tasks. Multitasking at its finest!


What does this mean for your company? Retailers need to build both their online and offline presence. Online presence includes ensuring your online ads, YouTube videos, social media platforms, product reviews and website are all well-chosen, clear, and mobile-friendly. You need to also make sure that the online and offline process run smoothly, seamlessly integrating into an effortless buying experience for the consumer. Creating the ideal ratio of digital and physical presence will result in high satisfaction in your customers and boost sales.

Low on time, but want to boost your social media presence? Talk to PRDA about a Digital Transformation! We provide a no obligation introductory social media evaluation, including professional recommendations best suited for your business. Click here to contact us for more information.
