In my series of Up-lifting Life Resources, I have interviewed today Mrs Suzanne Dekyvere, Principal Image Consultant at An Air of Dinstinction. www.airofdistinction.com.au One day that I was complimenting a good friend of mine on how good she looked in a new outfit, she told me how, by having a session with an image consultant, she had discovered she used to wear the complete wrong colours and how happy she was now that she knew what suits her.
