Q: Sports journalism is a competitive job market. While an internship can give you an edge, doing freelance work while you are searching for a more stable job can enhance your resume. Find freelance work by contacting websites, magazines, newspapers, and radio stations that have regular sports reports. Come up with several writing pitches, and e-mail your best ideas to the editor of the blog, magazine, or newspaper. Do this regularly. Once you start publishing regularly, you will be able to develop a writing portfolio. Once you have published several well-written pieces, begin compiling your best pieces for your portfolio. You do not need to include all your writing pieces. A few solid articles are better than a lot of mediocre pieces. Your writing pieces should represent you and your writing interests. If you have several pieces that cover different sports, categorize them as such. For example, have a separate category for football, tennis, and soccer.  The number of writing pieces to include varies; some jobs will specifically request a certain size portfolio. As you put yours together, be sure to include at least 8 to 10 strong pieces. Your portfolio should also have a brief biography detailing who you are, why you are passionate about sports writing, and why you are a great fit for the job. Before you go to a job interview, take time to learn about the company. Also, be ready to give examples of some of your outstanding writing pieces, and remember to bring your portfolio. Brainstorm different writing ideas and angles before you go into the interview, and make a list of your top three. Remember to network during your undergraduate studies, internship, and freelancing experience. Create relationships with your supervisor and other writers. These relationships can lead to job opportunities in the future. You can create relationships with your supervisor by being proactive and by creating quality-writing pieces.  Remember to showcase your stuff. Post your best writing on social media outlets like Twitter and Facebook. You can also create your own professional website showcasing your best work. Having a professional website is an easy way for an employer to assess your skills, experience, and qualifications for a potential job.
A: Do freelance work. Create a work portfolio. Prepare for the job interview. Network and maintain relationships.

Q: Dress and skirts are almost universal fashion signals for the feminine - wearing one defines you as a girl and throwing your jeans out is a femininity statement you make to yourself. Modern fashion has made it possible to find a dress or skirt for any occasion, from sleek black cocktail dresses to light, flowery summer skirts. The best way to pick a dress is a personal choice: do you feel comfortable, beautiful, and feminine? If so, chances are good other people will see similar traits. The softness of your natural curves is your feminine gift. Accentuate and embrace your female body to bring out the feminist aesthetic. This often means wearing clothes that highlight your chest and waist. Yet the easiest way to highlight your curves is to wear clothes that fit. You can try to wear somewhat tight clothing, or just enough to accentuate your beautiful figure.  A woman's figure is markedly different from a man's, and calling(even a small amount) of attention to it will naturally look more feminine.  If you feel comfortable and feminine in an outfit, then it makes you more feminine. You do not have to show skin to appear feminine. There are some fashions that, despite being worn by both men and women, are predominantly feminine. In general, delicate or softer fabrics and eye-catching patterns are considered feminine. Some things to incorporate into your wardrobe include:  Lace, silk, or velvet Floral patterns Polka dots Again, though this is not strictly necessary, feminine looks typically rely on bright colors to bring out the vibrancy and fun of the feminine world. Try bolder color ideas, or spice up a simple outfit with a splash of colorful shoes or makeup. Accessories, like scarves, bags, and head wear are a great place to make your outfit more feminine. Typically worn by women, jewelry has become socially acceptable in many corners of the world for everyone. Having a little bling can make you feel confident, attractive, and worthwhile, and it will ramp up your feminine image. In general, jewelry with stones (diamonds, ruby, etc., fake or real) is considered more feminine than plain rings or chains.  Wear pinky or thumb rings. Put on a nice necklace. Get your ears pierced. No one has to see what you're wearing underneath for it to make a difference. Remember that being more feminine starts from within, so if you feel it, others will feel it too. Try slipping on something a little risqué and see if it makes you feel more feminine as a result. Ultimately, if you don't act feminine, your looks will only carry you so far. Feel at home in your own skin, love who you are, and enjoy life and you will radiate femininity whenever you want to. If you feel feminine, chances are good other people will see it in you too. Though there is no one right way to "be feminine," there are fashion cues that signal femininity. Looking feminine, however, does not mean you must submit to traditional gender roles. Rather, it is a stylistic choice that accentuates many classic examples of femininity such as grace, dignity, flirtiness, and sexuality.  Anyone can bring feminine style into their wardrobe regardless of gender or sexual identity. Think about "classic" examples of feminine beauty, such as Halle Berry, Marilyn Monroe, and Nicole Kidman. What makes them feminine to you? Anyone -- male, female, transgender, etc. -- can look, dress, and be feminine. Feminine is not the same as "female," because it is a social, not biological, concept.
A:
Wear dresses and skirts for simple feminine fashion. Highlight your curves and body shape. Try out traditionally feminine patterns and styles. Embrace color. Wear a little tasteful jewelry. Wear undergarments that make you feel sexy. Know that your confidence and attitude has as much to do with feminine looks as your fashion. Pay attention to the societal and cultural image of femininity.
