I Am A Plain ol' Jane!

They say that it only takes 3 seconds for someone to judge you by your looks.
Ouch!
I have never been one to care much about my looks.
I was cute enough.  
My mom tells me that I was down-right adorable as a baby.


I was never unhappy with how I looked and lucky enough to be okay looking.
But as I do more speaking engagements I am finding that I need to think about what to wear and the image I am trying to create!
Wow, that is a real big pain.
So recently I hired Scarlett DeBease. http://www.scarlettnewyork.com/
I was a little nervous I will admit.
She was coming into my house, my bedroom, my closet - oh boy!
I did do a little organizing so she could see what I owned.
When the day arrived, I was psyched at all she showed me.
First we took a picture of me before:

She showed me what colors looked good on me: brown vs back, gold vs silver jewelry and what neckline is best.
She then went through my closet and created outfits from the clothes that fit the criteria.


I got rid of a ton of clothes and happy to do so - really happy.
I had a lot of stuff and it was always a little depressing that I had nothing to wear even though my closet was full.
She took a lot of pictures so I would remember the outfits.



We then went shopping.
Okay here is one of the big revelations - I had a bra fitting - first time ever!
Wow! Was that an eye opener.  I now have a bust-line in the correct place...hahahaha
I am small but it was definitely misaligned if you know what I mean.
We found lots of clothes that looked great and had fun doing it.
I can now walk into my closet and see outfits that I can grab and go with and feel confident that I look pretty good.
Confidence! My clothes now give me confidence!
Thanks Scarlett,
Mindy
