A Macy's style consultant for over three years and former Mademoiselle and Marie Claire editor, Kelly has chosen fifteen Texas ladies out of an astounding 1,000+ applicants for head-to-toe style makeovers. The winners will then participate in a special Macy's fashion show to reveal their transformations to friends and family.

If only the cops were busting the Hummer-driving jerk who made a poor...
