I just made an appointment with an ?Image Consultant?. Yes, it has come to this. The first step is admitting you have a problem and I guess I have to be honest and just come right out and say that I can?t dress myself. Everything in my wardrobe screams ?student?. The pieces that I?ve tried to integrate in aren?t working and I end up looking like a kid playing dress-up. The Image Consultant will help me decide what I want to look like (i.e. corporate exec, businesswoman, etc.) and then she?ll help me shop ? yes, shop ? for the new stuff. Can you believe that some people make livings off this? It?s a little hard for me to grasp. Harder still to grasp is the idea that I?m actually going to be purchasing her services. I?m feeling a very strange mix of embarrassment and resignation. I can?t do it myself. I need help. So I?m getting help. God help me.
