so at the end of last year…my girlfriend was having a family dinner…i’m thinking it was thanksgiving…but not sure…her family during dinner…decided to go around the table and say something that they were wanting for the new year…when it got to her brother…he mentioned that he would like to start dating…
so my girlfriend…being the lovely sister that she is…decided to gift my services to him…to help assess his wardrobe and help in any way i can…
her brother is an extremely smart young man…and the reason i bring that up…is the fact that he has aspergers…and i have such respect for people that fight the odds…the obstacles…and make a wonderful life for themselves…he is successful in every area of his life…graduated from a very prominent university…holds a great job that allows him to travel outside of the country…
the only thing missing was a fun dating life…and i…was so excited to be part in helping him with his wardrobe…
so i went over and met with him for the first time…he was shy…but so excited for this new adventure…i did several shopping trips for him and was ready to show him what i had come up with…and once we picked out the pieces that would work…created his very own look book…and he was set to go…
fast forward about three months…and his sister tells me that he now has a girlfriend…i cannot tell you how this warmed my heart…let’s be honest…clothes aren’t the whole piece to a puzzle…but when one is dressed right…meaning clothes that fit…and clothes that are put together…there is a confidence in that…and confidence is a pretty powerful force…at least i think so…
