I saw Samantha's add on facebook stating that she teaches people what to wear and look good, as I had wanted to find someone like that for ages, I was overjoyed to hear back from her via email almost immediately.

Samantha quickly gave me more information on what she does and gave me options as to what kind of help I wanted, I took the lot as I figured I needed all the help I could get.

We quickly set a date that suited me and fitted in with her commitments too. Within a couple of weeks we had meet at the shops to go shopping, I was amazed that she felt I fitted into clothes smaller than what I would normally even give a try. I was happy when I found the first article of clothing, in my mind it was success, usually I would go home and eat depressed at not finding anything, we continued on to some more stores, and tried a few more items, to my total surprise they looked good on me!

Samantha was easy to shop with, she was honest, friendly and so helpful. Having an expert tell me that I had skinny legs was amazing too, I always thought they were fat and should be hidden, but after that day I began to believe her, and things began to make sense to me.

I was so impressed with the speed to which reports were went to me, also having written notes that explained to me what body shape I was (always wondered, never really knew) it was great to be able to try shopping by myself then with the notes and see how I could do by myself, which probably once I get over the feeling of am I choosing right, will get easier, but it was and is great that I can email Samantha and ask her if what I was looking at was a good choice or not and she gets back to me that day.

It was also easy for me to throw out a lot of old clothes when Samantha came over to help me with the wardrobe, I had a lot of old clothes and most of then I was just saving but didn't wear, it was great that she could tell me what to wear that I did have in the cupboard (still with price tags on them) that I had never worn, now I am wearing them all the time.

Totally amazing to me was the compliments that I keep receiving from those that I know, telling me how great I am looking, how nice my new clothes are and have I lost weight? I still want to take Samantha shopping with me again one day just to make sure I am getting it right by myself, so that I can be confident in my choices and continue to enjoy the new found love of shopping! Something I never thought I would ever have unless I was size 12.
