Mary Kate Malat modeling for Limited Too

My story is simple when I was little I loved Limited Too! I couldn't fit into their clothes yet, but I would pull mom into the store to look at them. I have been a model with Wilhelmina in New York and The Johnston Agency in CT for 4 years now. We have gone on many go-sees for Tween Brands which is the company that owns Limited Too and Justice, but I never seemed to fit into the clothes. Then one January day my agent called to tell me I had a private meeting with the booker from Limited Too! I was so excited and when I tried on the outfits they fit perfectly, then disaster struck when the booker told me the dates and place of the shoot. It was taking place in the Bahamas the same week as the very expensive dream trip my mom and I had been planning to Hawaii! And I didn't have a passport yet to boot! I was so sad :( Then last July, my agent called again, this time the shoot was the very next day in Long Island. The problem was I had just changed my "look" to brunette and in my portfolio in my photos I was a blonde. Thought I was doomed! But my agent emailed them my new photos as me as a brunette and they booked me anyway. It was a big day for me. Everyone was so nice and I made many new friends. Then possible disaster struck again. With the bad economy Limited Too announced they where closing their stores in the mall. I cried and cried. I thought I would never get to see the beautiful photos taken on my that day. Well this morning my mom got this in her email and I've finally realized my Limited Too Model dream!
