Elfege: My Personal Designer

Yes... you read correctly. I, Shelley Sanders, have a personal designer....Oh I have died and gone to fashionista heaven! His name in Elfege and he is absolutely fabulous.  Today I took him some fabric and he designed my a dress and a long shirt.  The best part about him is that he speaks some English, so we can communicate pretty easily.  He promised to make a one of a kind sexy designer gown...I cannot wait.  My items will be finished on Friday, so I will really try to post pics of the newest pieces to my limited wardrobe. The absolute best part about my designer Elfege is that I can afford him!!!!  This is a dream come true. I paid about 22,000 CFA for my pieces, which is about 44 UDS. Needless to say I have made an executive decision to get two pieces of clothing made a month. I am bursting at the seems right now...Beautiful clothes made specifically to fit my body!!!

Hi there!
I was given your blog website from Educators Overseas as I was just offered a position at Arc-En-Ciel teaching pre-k. I wanted to know what your year has been like? Would you recommend the job to someone else? I have a few other offers that I am considering but Africa sounds like such an amazing adventure. Any information you could give to help me make my decision would be MUCH appreciated.
Sincerely,
Heather
