That's what one of my mentors
told me upon seeing this photo:
"It's the boots." she said. I hollered!
It's a different look for me, yes (for those who don't know me, I'm a jeans and tee-shirt kind of woman). But hoochie mama...don't think so. In fact, only two women that I know objected to this image. And one male colleague was not to sure and expressed concerned. Everyone else in my world (male and female), if they commented at all, was "thrilled" to see the new look and "inspired." Their words, not mine.
So what do you think? I ask the question not to focus on me, but to bring to the fore what this image triggers: wrong dress code for business, empowerment...what?

Greetings. Though I think it is an attractive picture, I don't think it was quite the right "image" from a marketing stand point. I mean, if your intention was to market a party, social event or a club it would be apropos (and, if I wasn't already married, probably have me coming to the event to check you out - LOL) but for a business whose mission is social and arts activism, I would have went with something a little more demure. Peace.
