For the general public, thinking of a ‘fashion stylist’ evokes a sense of Hollywood, and creates the image of a glamorous celebrity wearing designer clothing, posing for a photo shoot.

What about you? You may be thinking, “What would I do with a fashion stylist?”

With a natural flair for choosing just the right kind of colours, fabrics, clothing and accessories that suit their client and any particular occasion, stylists can offer advice regarding hair and make-up, as well as body awareness and even the way you speak.

However, stylists are skilled in more than just making people look good. They are skilled in helping people with improved self-image, and one of the greatest things about a relationship with a stylist is the boost to confidence that many people report afterwards.

Wherever you live in the world, whether it is a Federal, Local Council, State or Presidential election, your mailbox will groan under the weight of materials aimed at winning your vote. It may be the electronic age, but it seems that a pamphlet in your letterbox is still considered the most efficient way of getting a message across.

While an informed electorate is crucial to the democratic process, there appears to be huge over-sending of junk mail for political purposes – and no clear way on how to solve this. What’s worse, the content of most of the political flyers is simply mudslinging about their opponents with little to no substance. Is anyone else reminded of children in the playground?

How can you help stop this frivolous waste of paper? Imagine the strain on our environment and the large volume of greenhouse gases generated from all the trees cut down, printing and transport of the materials. Grab a cup of tea or your water bottle and let’s get down to it.

We know in Australia that material deemed to be political, educational, religious and charitable is exempt from “No Junk Mail” signed letterboxes according to standards conducted by the Australian Catalogue Association. So there is no way to stop it being deposited in your postbox along with the other junk mail catalogues enticing you to buy all sorts of stuff you don’t really need. It is likely the same in other countries.

Step 1. Incorrectly addressed political mail
A lot of of your mail may be addressed to former occupants of the house. You need to “return this to sender” with the note “no longer at this address”.

Step 2. Contact every political party or politician that is mailing you
There is no central database so you will need to call the office of each individual sender and ask to be removed from their mailing list. Remember to be polite! You catch more bees with honey than vinegar.

Step 3. National Standard to stop political junk mail
Write a letter to the Electoral Commission asking them to implement a National Standard to curb the number of pieces each political party is allowed to put in each household’s letterbox.

Step 4. Polling day
Don’t forget to recycle any materials you are given on the day – often the Greens Party has a box at the booths for such materials on polling day!
