Good lessons from Clinton Kelly

Macy's and Clinton Kelly Makeover America
Macy's South Coast Plaza- June 6th, 2009

It was great to see Clinton in person, his tall, slender, "freakin' fabulous" self. His and Stacey's knowledge and expertise in the image and style arenas inspired me to take on this career at this stage of my life! At any rate, whether you agree or not with the looks that he puts together, the basic lessons are always useful: use vertical lines for a slimming figure, color, texture and patterns for interest and basically don't forget to have fun, the whole "matchy, matchy" thing is so passe...
This season, the shoes took on a leading role with its fruity colors and shiny finishes, textured wedges and infinitely high heels. I enjoyed the outfits, the ideas but above all, what the makeovers do to people: they transform!
Thank you Clinton for your ever-hypnotizing appeal that lies just between old catholic school preaching and divinely avant-garde educational assistance program. I am one of your forever fans, your eternal pupil: I enjoy your lessons. Let's do more!
