I got this email from a reader recently and I thought I’d share my response to help anyone else who might be looking for something similar…

I have a cousin who is flying in from D.C. Nov 11th.  Her goal, to learn to look and act more like a girl – rather a woman.  She’s asked me to help her learn to dress, to apply makeup, to style her beautiful hair, etc.  Problem is, I’m not a fashionista myself.  Her figure proves challenging to find a flattering fit and I need help.  Do you have a contact that I can have her meet with?  Someone that is great with dressing all sizes?  I’d appreciate any help!  Thanks!!
