| Anita Noitz - favorite dress from Husk |
Anita is a smart and interesting lady with
an incredibly diverse career that has led to some interesting transition in her
wardrobe ….
In a senior position at L'Oréal Anita had quite an avante gard style of power dressing in block
colour. She was confident and out
there! She left the workforce for 8
years to live overseas and have children.
It was during this time, that she lost her mojo.
When her children were young, Anita entered
the direct selling industry to work around her family and learn new skills to
earn an income to further her development.
She was wearing the leisure wear that the company promoted. Sub consciously, she knew that this did not
communicate to the world who she was as a woman. Crikey!
I remember this time and every time I saw her in this gear, it was a
mis-match. This period lasted 6 years.
In her wisdom, Anita worked with a coach to consider some options and
discovered she had undeveloped coaching and teaching ability.

Through mentoring and coaching she is now
helping people push through their personal barriers that are holding them back
from achieving their highest potential in business and personal life. Using a variety of profiling tools, she peels
back the onion to reveal a new awareness that enables her clients to leave
limiting behaviours in the past. I have
experienced incredible shift from Anita’s work and highly recommend it if you
are committed to stepping up to the next level.
So, time to meet this lovely lady!

How would you describe your style?
I like individual pieces that make a
statement. I tend to welcome an
innovative and dramatic look, yet it needs to be comfortable. I have a very small wardrobe that serves me
well. Having travelled extensively, I’ve
learned to work with less. The fact that
I work with a variety of clients in different locations and I love what I have,
it’s not an issue. I’m really coming
into my own now and finding my own style.
While I can’t say I get it right all the time, I know I still have some
orphans but when I invest in certain pieces, I feel fantastic in them.

What’s changed for you with your new career
direction?
I have consciously changed my hairstyle to
be softer and more feminine to assist with rapport building. Fabrics and patterns are also more in line
with rapport building because what I do with people is so personal. It’s become more about how I communicate
visually now, more than ever. I’m really
loving what’s in my wardrobe right now.
What would you never wear again?
A classic suit. Boring and does not speak to who I am. I own one suit and never wear it as a suit.

What will you add to your collection now?
I’m in need of basic pieces like tops and
pants. And of course I need shoes. I was known at L'Oréal as the
shoe queen.
Tell us about your fashion values?
I’m an avid recycler and pass clothing onto
the brotherhood to recycle. I don’t like
disposable fashion and avoid it. It only
lasts a few wears, hurts the planet with landfill and is not a good way to
live.
Where do you shop?
I’m not as confident to shop as I would
like to be, but I do like local boutiques.
My last purchase was a charcoal leather jacket in India.

I’m inspired by Anita’s values towards her
wardrobe and the age of some of her favorite items. I love the innovation and diversity that
caters for the ability to choose every day.
As women we play many roles in life: mother, business owner/career,
lover, friend and our wardrobe needs to cater for all. Anita is a great example of getting it right
without having too much or spending too much.
