High Noon: Clothes & Other Trauma

I have struggled with body image, and therefore the clothing that will clothe that body, for most of my life. It’s sad because I was never morbidly obese. Chunky at times, but by and large, just proportioned differently than your average small, medium or large. I spent most of my youth trying to pretend that I was something that I was not, dressing accordingly and looking like I was doing just that. I don’t know if there really was stuff out there that would have looked good on me and I just was blind to it or if such a thing really just plain didn’t exist at that point in time (the era in question being the seventies)/ Liz Arakelian , My Life’s A Freak Show.

Question: In the TV reality show, “What Not To Wear,” hosts Clinton & Stacy show badly dressed people how to upgrade their fashion, make-up, and hair style. Do you need a makeover from Clinton and Stacy. Or are you good at fixing yourself up?
