Sometimes before you can dominate career mode to secure the bag, you need a little motivation or budget-friendly shopping spree to keep you on track.
Here are some great staple practical products to get you well on your way to securing the bag, via securing the shopping bag #treatyoself #billsbillsbills.
Possessing strong organizational potential skills is an asset. But being organized on paper, is an official, tangible and measurable skill. You will be surprised how much more efficient you can become with the commitment to basic organizer habits.
Bando (based in Bloomingdales, Dubai Mall) have some of the cutest planners, with inspirational quotes and stickers to help you get your life on track. Having a daily planner is not just important to look like you are organized but are actually the most functional accessory of any organized human being.
Make sure that you get one which has full pages per day (so a daily planner, not a weekly one.) This will allow you to create a lengthy task list per day, and allot time dedicated to each task. It is also helpful to get into the habit of scheduling follow up tasks, on future calendar days to make sure you do not drop tasks.
We live in an electronic day and age. Being offline or unreachable is an extremely inconvenient but easily solved problem. Always carrying a portable charger is a simple way of letting your employer know you are prepared for all circumstances and have prepped for the unforeseeable – and more importantly that they can rely on you to be there.
We know what your thinking – portable chargers can be annoying to carry, bulky and are mostly ugly. Our favorite hack is to carry a keychain portable charger. Buqu sells cute gold accessory keychains that double up as a portable charger and they are even available on Amazon ranging from AED 75-95.
Keeping them charged is a simple habit, place your portable power bank charger plugged in at the side of your phone charger at night and plug them in at the same time every night (we know y’all aren’t forgetting to charge that phone while you sleep.) We buy two and keep them on charge rotation.
We all need a little motivation every now and then and though our girl gang often has us covered, sometimes you need a visual push. Get your Marie Kondo on and find some artwork that “Sparks Joy” when you look at it, specifically about your career, goals and day in general. Frame a print or artwork on your wall to remind why the hustle is worth it ( even at 7 AM). Society 6 has some affordable artwork to help you find inspo, or even place an order.
It’s important to remember to wear what you are most comfortable and confident in. For us, a classic red lip is a great way to leave an impression (like a lipstick mark on a coffee cup) but also a fun pop of color to remind you to have fun in chasing your #goals. Our favorite shades are Ruby Woo by Mac and Arriba by Colour Pop!
If red isn’t your thing, go with an alternative power color like Boss Brown like Velvet Teddy from Mac. Unsure about which colors suit your olive tone complexion? Check our guide on the perfect makeup for olive skin tones.
Now that you have the tools of the trade, you are equipped young Padawan.

With or without the stuff, your success in the workplace depends on your commitment, hard work, and no-quitter girlboss attitude. We’re rooting for you – #careerbae.
