Charlotte Gomez for BuzzFeed

1. I'd ask the personal shoppers to find outfits that they considered flattering. However, I did NOT indicate what precisely on my body I wanted flattered -- I left that completely open to interpretation.

2. I'd ask (whenever possible) why something was chosen for me.

3. As with this post, I'd buy anything I really loved, so as to not willfully waste anyone's time.

4. Wherever possible, I included links to the items online (for some items I struggled to find exact matches).
