Hi All Since that day linzie found herself  shes had great folks who loved and care for her.One of the most loving and caring persons Has been Countessa of countessas closet One saterday I was out shopping on ventura blvd. In studio city . I had stopped by glamour boutiqe wich was still open then and a few of the shps along the way . I had always heard about contessas Closet but realy did'nt know where it was then.Well as I was heading for the 101 fwy. i noticed Her sign at the mall her shops in , it was around 3PM ,so decided to take a look . I walked in to this great cute shop with more clothes then in any of the shops i had been in all morning . I suprised contessa whos this cute small bundle of joy and energy . As she did'nt see me slink in. She introduced her self and  I was so suprised to have anyone just treat me as a female customer as openly and honestl as her. Since that first meeting we ha ve become great friends. I have come to respect and admier her loving honest heart , all tho she she can seem abit hard and in your face if your the timid type it's not at all her true color . Contessa Is a true pillar Of the Transgender community and not at all out to push any thing she has for sale . She Won't tell new folks in the cuommunity that they look great in her makeup ,clothes ,shoes if it's not true . And i have delt with what was out there as her rivals i say that because she had no competition . THey would all lie about how you looked to make sales, And being new and needing input they took advantage of that. As a tg person and wanting to function as normal as possible in the real world guidance and honesty are so much appricated . THe only Place i have found that is at contessas. She and i have become sisters Critical  and loving ,sweet and comforting. What more could you ask for . At this stage in my new life I have had and up and down year But When i spend that great personal time with my sister Countessa There are no bad times. If you are ever near her shop stop in and tell her linzie sent you I esure you won't be dissapointed in any way by doing so. Love  Is all i have to give. Linzie Rell
