Hi All,

 

I'd LOVE to do this one!  

 

Challenge 10:  Dress for success.

Lactation consultants will be given a credit card and one day to shop for a
professional wardrobe to be rated by Upper East Side mothers who work in the
fashion industry. These women will rank the lactation consultants on the
basis of the wardrobe that is least like their conception of a breastfeeding
N***.  

 

I can pretty much guarantee they wouldn't mistake me for a breastfeeding
n***  (HATE that term!).  I also wouldn't be the most fashionable either.
:-)  I show up to my home visits in jeans, a polo shirt and loafer - with my
tattoos showing.  :-)  If it's summer - I show up in shorts, sandals and a
polo shirt or tank top with all tattoos showing!  (I have 5)  I tell moms I
am probably the oddest LC they'll meet here in Sacramento!  LOL!  Dressing
'professionally' cramps my style and according the moms I work with would
intimidate them!  They like me 'human'.  :-)
