Start organizing your clothes closet by giving yourself plenty of time and space to do the job. It's crazy-making to think that we can organize an entire wardrobe in even a full day of working.

The transformation from dork to beauty is no less difficult for the fact that it all—every bit of it—happens between your ears. Maybe you don't want to hear that, but it's so true that I can't do anything but say it to you and then say it again. Now, I'm going to tell you everything I know about being a dork and also about being a beauty, and I'm also going to begin by telling you that some days I'm the biggest dork who ever crashed into a light fixture and other days I am unbelievably sexy and charming and guys make passes at me left and right. I'm also going to point out to you that Meg Ryan made her fortune in When Harry Met Sally by being a dorkette-princess and also pretty, so nobody cared that she didn't want her foot to touch.
