I was surprised to hear that she's still doing it. All the way back home I was thinking, "Ah! Now I know why Angie still makes the time to volunteer there! It could very well be the thing she enjoys the most!" </p> <p>If any of you are interested, you should check it out. I don't think I've had so much fun since the L.A. YLF meetup! One of the clients was thanking me profusely as she left with her sharp interview outfit all packaged up. I wanted to say, "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!!" Instead I implulsively threw my arms around her and told her sincerely that the pleasure was ALL mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/claire-you-there#post-508093 Thu, 12 Jan 2012 04:15:07 +0000 Anonymous 508093@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a heartwarming experience!

You can feel the emotion relaying your experience. I am so, so very happy for you. Just think of the difference you can help make for people and the wonderful moments you are going to have. I can hardly wait to hear more - thanks for popping by when you're in a rush. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/claire-you-there#post-507855 Thu, 12 Jan 2012 01:50:24 +0000 Anonymous 507855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IT WENT FAB! After messaging Angie privately, I decided to wear the jeans outfit. I got there and was AMAZED at the beautiful boutique setting. Really! Like the Anne Fontaine store or something. Big chandelier, beautiful interior design. WOW. </p> <p>After a quick tour, I was told to put my purse in the cabinet and get to work shadowing a "personal shopper"! I was not prepared for that! What an amazing time I had. I can't think of anything more gratifying. These ladies came in looking very rough, and when they were dressed in heels and a beautiful suit, it's like they became a whole new person. Their excitement was infectious!</p> <p>We got to help her choose a complete interview outfit, shoes, bag, hose, everything! It was such fun discovering their likes and dislikes and knowing why something didn't work on a particular figure type. I always blamed the clothing if something wasn't working, something I learned here (actually every thing I used today I learned here)!</p> <p>A few times I had to hide my face as tears sprung to my eyes. What a restorative organization where women are treated with such respect. You could tell that was new for many of them. </p> <p>Wow, I really have to go. I'll tell you more later...thank you all so much for asking how it went. I signed up to work each Wednesday this month. Oh and as I was walking out the door the scheduler asked me not to wear jeans next time. So maybe I need to work on a little "volunteering capsule", lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/claire-you-there#post-507836 Thu, 12 Jan 2012 01:39:13 +0000 Anonymous 507836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, thanks!
