I am asked some really nutty questions from this blog. Most of them I don't publish, because they have nothing to do with fashion, and aren't something that would be helpful to all of you.But - recently, I seem to be getting a lot of q's about me...guess that is what happens when you put yourself (or your blog) out there for the world to see.
So, I thought I would try to answer some of the questions here.
Q. Are you Married?
A. Yes
Q. Why do you live in the midwest?
A. Because that is where my house is, and where my husband lives.
Q. What size do you wear?
A. Seriously?
Q. Do you have kids?
A. 2 step daughters, and we're adopting a little girl from Russia - she is now 6. You can get all the gory details on that 4-year journey if you go to my PERSONAL blog.
Q. Do you get clothes for free?
A. Nothing is ever for 'free'
Q. How did you get started doing what you do?
A. I've worked for apparel companies in the past - loved helping people, but did not like retail. It took me years to figure out a way to do what I loved (what I KNEW I was cut to do) - and call it a 'job' or career. Really, it took having a supportive husband who told me to make a go of it - and see what happened...so, here I am.
Q. What did you do before this?
A. I've always worked with women to better themselved. I've also done a lot of public speaking over the years on 'dressing for success'. But - before I figured out a way to make a living at being a wardrobe coach/personal shopper - my career was in marketing and advertising, specializing in female driven products and/or services.
Q. Have you ever dressed anyone famous?
A. Depends on what you think 'famous' is.
Q. Is your last name really Friend?
A. No - it's my stafe name (duh, of course Friend is my real last name)
