I love your work. I thought I was a 3/2 and then I finally went through all the videos again and watched a ton of her interviews and I am totally a 4/2. I had never even looked at the 4 clothing, but after looking last night. I realized that 70% of the clothes and style I own are very much 4/2 combo. I naturally am in the right style, but of course I own some pieces that I really like, but I feel so uncomfortable in them. I would love to get them fixed, but no way can I fix them. I have a great very expensive blazer that I bought from Talbots, but I feel so awkward in it. I would love to send it to you to have you fix it for me. How could you do a project like this for me from a distance? I could skype with you and we could come up with a design and I can send you my measurements,etc. Would this work?
ReplyDeleteOh no! I'm so sorry, but I'm just now seeing this comment almost a year and a half late! Did you get your blazer fixed? Blazers are kinda tough because they are lined and stuff. I'm so glad you figured out who you are, though!
