I’m coming to Beantown!

As I write this, I feel compelled to tell you that I am both exhausted and exhilarated, having finished Make Over America shows in Austin, Texas and Edina, Minnesota.
I tell people all the time that great style requires time, energy and patience. And boy does that ring true when styling 15 women in one day. [...]

As I write this, I feel compelled to tell you that I am both exhausted and exhilarated, having finished Make Over America shows in Austin, Texas and Edina, Minnesota.
I tell people all the time that great style requires time, energy and patience. And boy does that ring true when styling 15 women in one day. (Luckily I’ve had some amazing styling assistants courtesy of Macy’s.) I’ve left the store both Fridays feeling as though I had run a marathon—legs burning and blisters on my feet. (The blisters were my fault because I didn’t wear socks with my loafers. Big dope.) But honestly, I think I should get a pedometer to prove that I walked at least a half marathon looking for the perfect outfits!
Now here comes the exhilarating part: On both Saturdays, I had incredible shows that were so fulfilling that I can barely explain it to you. It’s just the best feeling to know that real women, regardless of their shape, regardless of their size, regardless of their age, have had a moment in the spotlight where they feel like supermodels, which of course they were. I highly encourage you, if at all possible, to come to see one of the shows if we happen to be in your ‘hood, because it just feels good to see other people feeling great about themselves.
If you’ve modeled for me, thankyouthankyouthankyou! Thank you for your patience. Thank you for your bravery. (It’s not easy to stand on a stage in front of your entire town and be gawked at.)
And thank you for letting me be a part of your lives.
Next stop: the Boston area, my old stomping grounds! Go. B.C.! Go Eagles!
