Okay, so I love What Not to Wear, therefore I love this story. And I cannot wait for the big reveal. I think next you should write a How to Look Good Naked story. Great show.
Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm so glad you're enjoying it. I've never seen How to Look Good Naked, but I bet it would be a good crossover! Who would be on it, Phyllis? ;) Thanks again!!

An extremely detailed story. You seem to know both shows extremely well, I also love the fact that you have photo links, that makes it al the better.
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! Yeah, I am not ashamed to admit that I've watched a lot of WNTW... maybe a little ashamed. ;) And I'm glad the photos enhance your reading experience! They are very fun. Thanks again!!

Sweet and lovely and bonus: helpful tips! I'm so excited for her reveal...not just to see Jim's reaction, but everyone's. I just love seeing her happy. Yahoo!!!
*apologizing for button, yet again*
Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm glad you're finding this educational as well as entertaining. ;) Hopefully I'll get the big reveal chapter up soon! /gets to work on her paper...

Is it sad that I could hear Nick's voice in my head as I was reading and that I thought to myself, "Carmindy didn't product place her Crest Whitestrips?" Yeah, you know you're obsessed with WNTW and TO at the same time when... Sigh. Anyway, keep up the great work, and can't wait for the big reveal! Should the graphic on the screen when Jim is interviewed (which I'm guessing will happen) read "Pam's secret boyfriend"? lol
Author's Response: LOL!! I forgot about the Crest Whitestrips! She hasn't done that in a while though; she may have lost her contract with them... wow, talk about obsessed. ;) Thank you so much for the lovely review! I'm really glad you're enjoying this so much. And yes, it

I spent one day this weekend watching the WNTW marathon. You have been able to marry the two shows perfectly here. Great job! Cannot wait for the reveal!!!
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I'm glad you think I've done a good job of blending she shows, especially since you just had a marathon of WNTW to compare to! Thanks again!!

I totally watched the marathon. Like...6 of the 15 hours. How embarrassing is that? But in my defense, I decided to write a paper on the show...we'll see how that turns out.
That being said, good chapter! I'm excited for the end. Although one thing: Why didn't Nick ask for a hug? (hee jk) He always kind of perv-ily does that with the pretty girls.
Author's Response: LOL! He does do that, doesn't he? I always thought he did that with the ones who fought him a little on how to style their hair, like to make amends at the end, but maybe it is only with the pretty ones... hmm... So glad you enjoyed it, and that you're excited for the big reveal!!

I did! I did! I watched the WNTW marathon, well a lot of it anyway. And I thought of this story while watching. :) You've done a great job with Stacy, Clinton, Nick and Carmindy. I tell you, it's like I'm watching an actual episode! Looking forward to the big reveal.
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I'm really glad this reminds you of an actual episode (especially after watching a marathon of it!), because the writing process for this story is so different from anything else I've attempted to write. The hair and makeup part was especially challenging, so I'm so happy that you liked it!! Thanks again!!!

I'm really liking this explanation for Pam's little transformation between seasons 3 & 4. I'm not really a fan of the show, but I like how you are using it ;)
Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm glad you're enjoying the story, even if you don't care for What Not To Wear so much. :)

This is always my favorite part of the show, because it's usually the moment when the biggest transformation takes place, and the person finally realizes their true potential. You've really captured that here with Pam. It's good to see her confidence really bloom. And thanks for all the pictures at the end of the chapters. They're always a great visual reference. (Except I think the makeover section needs a before pic too!)
I can't wait until the big reveal, especially with that little tease at the end. :D
Author's Response: Thank you!! Yes, I totally agree that once people get the hair and makeup done they really see the full effect of the transformation. I'm so glad you think I've done that with Pam here, because I do think her FNB hair is really the most noticeable change about her. And you are so right about needing a before visual!! I'm going to go find a good one right now. :) Thanks so much again!!

Yet another fun chap, DA-S. They go by so quickly. I really love that last photo. So excited about the big reveal!
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! Really glad you liked it. I agree, that last photo is a beautiful shot of her. :)
