Referrals are the core of my business.  People seem to trust the idea more if someone they know has already taken the plunge.  Copy that.  In walks the challenge referral of the year.  Granted, I’ve done my fair share of vintage, thrifting, even consignment shopping and come out ahead, but never has a client asked me to help them create the ultimate in eco-conscious living: a completely sustainable wardrobe
