My Virtual Model

So, have you tried on clothes using My Virtual Model yet?

A lot of stores, including L.L. Bean, Sears, and Lane Bryant offer this option. I have to admit to having mixed feelings.

It’s pretty slow getting her all set up. In fact, the application keeps freezing on me, which is frustrating. My hairstyle seems to flatter us, but I can’t get the lips right. They look nice, fuller than mine, and since I always wanted fuller lips, I think I’ll just leave them that way.

She looks like a nice person, but my virtual model looks too damned fat. I wish she’d lose some weight - I know I don’t look that fat. Okay, fine, since she can’t seem to change, I’ll accept her that way. After all, after making her look “more mature,” obviously neither of us is in our youth.

She doesn’t understand that at our age/weight we don’t tuck our tee shirts in. No option to change that. We seem to look like hell in everything but black, which thankfully really is slimming. The dresses are bad news, so we’re limited to pants. That’s fine, I prefer wearing them anyway.

The good part of this experiment is that I now I know that I should only wear black pants and shirts, with the exception of a colorful jacket or sweater. The bad part is one of us has got to lose some weight, and soon.
