“And what can we help you find today Madam?”
Connie Blake smiled as she looked up; she had only been inside the store a moment “I need a new outfit for a wedding I have coming up”
“Well as you know we have everything here from dresses to shoes to jewelry so I’m sure we can find something perfect for you” the lady who ran the store said. Short and stocky, she put her hand out to Connie “You can call me Kim”
“It’s a pleasure…I don’t think I’ve been in here before…have you been open very long?” Connie said looking around.
“No, just a few months now. It’s been a rough start frankly…not too many big occasions this year. Guess I picked the wrong time to try and start my own boutique” Kim said “But, I’m hoping that once word of mouth spreads about all the things I can offer that it will pick up”
“I’m sure it will” Connie said as the door opened and the chime tinkled.
“Oh! Two customers today…it must be my lucky one!” Kim giggled.
Connie browsed as Kim greeted her new customer, she overheard “Yes I have a wedding coming up and I really don’t have anything I want to wear to it”
The voice sounded young and when Connie caught sight of her, she discovered she was right. She looked just in time to hear her introduce herself as “Kylie”
Kylie looked to be in her early 20’s, tiny with a lot of brown hair and big brown eyes.
Connie was 58 and felt that she was in good shape for her age. She stood 5’8” and while her body showed a middle age sturdiness and thickness, she was not fat. She had short light blonde hair and light blue eyes. She was instantly envious of Kylie’s hair.
Connie’s hair had always been thin and that had only increased as she aged. She was very self-conscious that right at her part in her hair, it was gray and very thin. Kylie’s hair was dark brown and full of body and waves that cascaded halfway down her slender back; the girl couldn’t be taller than an even 5’.
Connie was looking through the racks of 12s and 14s while Kylie was at the 0s and 2s.
“How are both of you ladies doing?” Kim asked from between the two of them. “Wouldn’t it be crazy if you were both going to the same wedding?”
Kylie looked over and smiled at Connie “Oh…you’re wedding shopping too?”
Connie nodded “The little girl who grew up next door to me…Alexa Moser…” Connie saw Kylie smile and bounce.
“Alexa and I are friends from college! I was going to be in the wedding but then stupid pandemic…she cut her bridesmaids in half, just down to her sister and cousin” Kylie said “But that is so crazy! I’m sure we’ll see each other there!”
“Well I’m sure that I won’t miss you; you’re so stunning that you’ll stand out in the crowd” Connie said “You have the most gorgeous hair I think I’ve ever seen”
Kylie blushed. She put her hand to her chest as her big doe eyes widened “That is so sweet! Thank You!” Kylie replied “I intend on spending a lot of time on the dance floor…I will get you out to dance with me!” she added laughing.
“You’ve got it! I plan on being out there quite a bit myself…we’ll see who can last longer” Connie laughed heartily in reply “I don’t know if I can keep up with girls your age anymore but I’m willing to try”
“I’m sure you probably have more energy than me…do you run? You look like you’re in great shape” Kylie said.
“My knee won’t let me run any longer, but I have competed in 19 Boston marathons”
Kylie’s jaw dropped.
“And so many others…I gave it up about 10 years ago but I still go to the gym 4 days a week and walk every night either outside or on my treadmill” Connie finished.
“Wow” Kylie said smiling “That is amazing! I wish I had that kind of drive and devotion!”
“I wish I had your age” Connie laughed “And your tiny little size for that matter!”
Kylie blushed “Can I admit something to you? I hate being short…absolutely hate it…I wish I was taller…how tall are you?”
“I’m 5’8”” Connie replied.
“Ooooohhhhh that would be ideal! I would love to be taller” Kylie said looking up.
“Well it sounds like you two have really hit it off” Kim laughed “Sounds like you have a lot in common really”
Both women smiled and nodded.
“Well, how would you like to make this the most unforgettable wedding you’ve ever attended?” Kim asked.
“You mean better than my own?” Connie replied as Kim nodded smiling.
“You see this store really does do everything…true and absolute full service” Kim began “I could make you taller…you could attend this wedding standing 5’8” or, even taller” she said looking at Kylie. She turned to Connie “And you could attend it at 23 years of age. But…since you both are known to the crowd, those changes would be quite conspicuous”
Both Connie and Kylie were looking quite perplexed.
“So what if you attended as each other?” Kim said looking between them.
“What?” Connie said.
“What?” Kylie echoed.
“I know it sounds crazy but I can assure you that it’s true…as I said to you Connie, once people find out about all the wonderful things my store can do; the word of mouth will really get around. I just need to get people to try it out! To show them! To make them believe!” Kim said “I can show you an example right here in the store if you just give me a few minutes and don’t walk out”
Kylie was about to flee but was also frozen on the spot.
Connie felt likewise. They looked at each other and then to the pleading woman standing between them “Alright…if it doesn’t hurt and it’s not permanent and you promise no tricks or anything, then I guess it wouldn’t hurt for you to show us something”
Kylie nodded “It’s not going to hurt right because you’re kinda freaking me out right now”
“It’s only freaky because it’s new. It’s nothing you’ve ever seen or felt before but I promise you that you’re going to love it!” Kim said.
“Then why don’t you start by showing us what you just said you could?” Connie said “Make me 23 years old again and make her taller than me”
Kim looked at Kylie “Would that be sufficient?”
Kylie nodded, she was actually scared to death and her heart pounded in her chest. “I don’t know if I want to do this…” she was saying as Kim simply pointed a finger at her and the most pleasant feeling washed over Kylie.
She instantly relaxed; tingling all over her body as she warmed up, deep breaths going in and coming out, her facial expression went from almost terrified to blissful “Oh” she said.
“OH!” the feelings intensified with an almost sexual gratification sensation as her body began to stretch out.
Kylie blushed as she saw herself rise up past Kim in height and start to gain on Connie.
“Oh. My. God! You’re growing! You are actually, physically growing taller! This is amazing!” Connie said taking a step back at first but then forward, getting closer to Kylie as she quickly approached her in height.
“This feels so good too!” Kylie gushed “It’s so exhilarating” she came up equal to Connie in height and then surpassed her as Kim took Kylie up a whole foot to 6’.
As Kylie checked out her long, lean body and mile high legs, Kim pointed at Connie.
Connie shuddered all over and broke out in goosebumps “Oh my gosh!” she let out blushing and fanning herself “Oh…this does feel reaaaaaalllly good”
Kylie stopped and stared, her jaw dropping “Oh my gosh Connie…” she hurried into her purse and pulled out a compact mirror handing it over.
Connie grabbed it and watched as her own jaw dropped. Her face was getting younger. All the lines and spots were disappearing and smoothing out. Her neck skin tightened, her cheeks rose up, her eyes brightened. No more crow’s feet, no more laugh lines, no blemishes at all.
But it wasn’t just her face.
Her hair began to lighten and thicken. The grays vanished and her hair grew out to shoulder length.
Everything was tightening and lifting up. Her breasts pulled up high and perky. Her ass rose up pert and firm, her cellulite vanished on her toned thighs, her stomach went flat and abdominal muscles popped.
Her upper arms roped into lean muscles as even her hands and feet smoothed out with youthful vigor and elasticity.
“I…I’m a girl!” Connie gushed now checking out her entire body.
Both of them rushed to the mirrors where they fawned over themselves and each other.
“Do I have your attention?” Kim asked as she came up between the two of them.
“I think you have two customers for life” Connie said as Kylie nodded in agreement.
“I can cast the spells for up to 24 hours” Kim said. “These will wear off in a few minutes. I can also tie the spell to an object, such as a necklace or bracelet that as long as you wear it, you can become someone else…and you know who I have in mind for each of you” she added with raised eyebrows “I don’t think it was an accident at all that you both arrived at the same time here today…I’m just proposing a little fun. A way to experience a shared event from a different perspective”
“We just met…” Kylie began.
“It would only be for an evening” Kim replied.
Connie shrugged “I know I’m gaining a lot more than you are so I’ll leave it up to you”
Kylie looked over and began to feel a cool sensation ripple over her body. “Oh” she purred and shivered, she giggled as she shrank back down. She soon came eye to eye with Connie again and then found herself looking up at her before shrinking down even shorter than Kim once again.
Connie too felt a coolness over her as her body began to relax and slacken, growing older, back to her true age. A slight bulge here, a loosening there. She tingled all over as she returned to herself.
Kylie blinked and stepped off to the side. She stared out the window for a moment “You know what…”
Both women looked at her in anticipation. “What the heck! I think it might be a lot of fun…I’m in”
Connie clapped excitedly and Kim beamed. “Oh I just love this kind of stuff! It makes me so happy!”
“But why?” Kylie asked “Couldn’t it just lead to chaos?”
“No…not at all…you’ll see. Once you’re in it…you’ll see. And as for the first part of your question, just because I enjoy what I do! I love the thought of it, the swapping, the changes, the differences”
Kylie just shook her head and gave a breathless “Ok”
“Do you two want to play dress up today?” Kim asked.
“What do you mean?” Connie asked in reply.
“Well, I could swap you two now and then you could pick out your own outfit as it were for the wedding” Kim said and both women smiled.
Connie was full on checking out Kylie’s body.
Kylie raised her eyebrows but began her own look. The two began to circle each other like boxers at the beginning of a fight. Both were smirking “You know I’m all in” Connie said.
“I might as well…it’ll give me a preview” Kylie replied. “But am I…Am I going to feel like I’m old, er, older?”
Kim nodded “How did you feel when you were momentarily younger?” she asked Connie.
Connie blinked and smiled “Awesome…young. Pain free”
“You are physically becoming her so you inherit all her 58 years and the pains that go with it” Kim replied as Connie shrugged.
Kim pulled out 2 necklaces; both had a silver pendant on the end, and handed them over “Once you put these on, you will transform into the other. You will stay as the other as long as you wear it and your own transformation will not break if the other takes off her necklace”
 “So there could be two of us?!” Kylie said.
Kim nodded “You two will need to coordinate on the wedding day…after that…it’s up to you”
Kylie blushed bright red “I…I don’t know if I…” she mumbled flustered.
“Hey…calm down. I know you don’t know me very well yet but I promise you that I’m mature and can be trusted. I would never dream about doing anything without your permission” Connie said.
“You know it could come in handy actually” Kylie said “If you ever need to be in two places at once…”
“Even I could take you up on that one” Connie said.
Kylie took the necklace from Kim’s hand and looked at Connie. Connie smiled and took hers between fingers that trembled slightly. She nearly dropped it as it slipped a bit before she grasped it tightly.
Kylie threw her head forward to move all of her hair out of the way to put it on. She heard her nails click against each other as she worked the clasp.
Connie stood upright, a goofy, still shocked smile on her face that she couldn’t wipe off. It took three tries to get it to latch behind her neck.
As she lowered her hands, she felt such a pleasant wave of warmth wash over her.
“You two might want to head to the changing rooms…HA! Changing rooms…especially you Kylie…you’re wearing loose clothes but…” Kim said eyeing up Kylie’s ensemble of black flip flops, gray sweat pants and a loose gray top while Connie was in dark brown Birkenstock sandals, olive green Capri pants and a tan short sleeved top.
Kylie bounded towards the back of the store, her brown hair dancing as Connie took a more sedate path but as she made the turn towards the right, she planted her foot to pivot and felt it slide loosely in her sandal.
“My shoe feels like it’s too big” she thought looking down. She didn’t stop walking but with every step, her sandal now flapped as her foot shrank down inside of it.
Her toes began to change shape, shrinking back and slimming down. Light sky blue nail polish began to appear on her tiny toes. She shuffled the last few feet afraid of walking right out of her shoes. Her feet were so small. Her heels had healed, no cracks, just full and healthy skin but they had pulled in from the backs of her shoes as her sides came in, her toes pulled back and her tops thinned down. “They look so petite and delicate!” she said rising up on her toes and sliding side to side a bit to examine them.
Connie easily stepped back and out of her sandals as she noticed Kylie staring down at the ground and her own feet.
Kylie had made it to the doors of the changing rooms before she wiggled herself feeling something odd on the bottoms of her feet. Something was scratchy and as she stopped and now stood still, she got the oddest sensation as she could feel her feet growing on her.
She knew she was staying perfectly still yet part of her body was in motion. She felt a slight bump up as her heels and feet thickened. The sides of her feet stretched over the confines of the cheap small flip flops and now she felt the carpeting sliding under them.
Kylie dug her toes down, pressing them down hard as they spread wider, grew longer and changed shape. Her toes were suddenly big and long with wide nails painted a gun metal gray.
“Sorry to give you my hooves” Connie said “Next to yours, they look huge and ugly”
“I don’t think they’re ugly at all” Kylie said quickly. She lifted her toes “Just different. And I’m looking forward to using them” She smiled at Connie as she looked up.
“But this is actually happening Kylie…soon, our whole bodies will be each other’s body” Connie said just as her calves decided to thin so she felt her pant legs loosen and flap as her legs shrank away beneath them.
Leaning forward and popping her knees back, Connie caught sight of her shiny and thin shins. She shimmied back and forth already showing some of her returning youthfulness, popping her hips and dancing naturally.
“Whoa…looks like you’re already getting some of my moves” Kylie said seeing the ease of Connie’s movements.
Connie blushed and smiled “Yeah, I mean, I guess so” she said sounding young and not nearly as confident as she had as she nervously tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
Kylie’s hips shifted throwing her off balance for a moment. She put a hand out to steady herself as her legs were changing. Her ankles thickened, followed by her calves, now solid with thicker and lower set muscle.
Her knees quivered as her muscles twitched before the changes raced up her thighs, filling them out with more fat and additional muscle. The skin shifted on her inner thighs and along the backs; dimples formed “Cellulite” she muttered feeling little popping sensations now reach her ass.
Her legs also grew longer as they solidified. Kylie rose up several inches in height as her legs became Connie’s legs.
“Oh!” Kylie laughed as Connie looked up “Hello there”
Connie suppressed a larger laugh upon seeing her new situation. She had been looking down, watching her pants pucker and move around as they became too large for the legs underneath them. As her rear and hips began to slim down, she shook her hips from side to side so that her pants dropped off of her.
Connie gasped upon seeing her tiny, thin, and trim legs. Toned and taut with glowing skin “I’ve never been this tiny! This is amazing! These legs! I’m so skinny but yet…I’ve still got curves”
Her panties were ill-fitting as her ass pulled up much smaller and much firmer behind her. She felt everything tightening. Everything. She brought her thighs together, no excess saggy skin, no dimples, no cellulite, no flaws at all as she bent slightly forward as she rejuvenated below her baggy panties. The slight hair she did have there vanished into a fully shaved mound. Fluid rushed forward engorging her clit, throbbing as everything came alive and vibrant in a way she had nearly forgotten.
Now, she looked over at Kylie, who was watching her. Kylie had felt just a slow draining of sensation from her abdomen and lower pelvic area. She felt hairs poke through, she felt drier, less vibrant but it had been a slow change accompanied by a soothing warmth that flowed through her mid-section even as she was more fascinated by how large her ass had grown. “That is some serious middle aged booty there” she thought as her hips flared outward to accommodate her larger ass.
Kylie’s torso, waist and back had to adjust. Her bottom half just simply wouldn’t fit with her bottom half for long without a serious realignment so she had been spreading and growing in anticipation.
But at the time Connie finally looked up and said her “Oh…Hello there” they were at an equal point in height. With a shudder all over her torso, Connie continued shrinking down. She was almost triangle shaped until her shoulders and back slipped inward taking her sides and chest in with them.
But with that motion came a drastic reduction in Connie’s height. The other four inches she needed to lose came off almost instantaneously and she dropped from 5’4” to an even 5’.
Connie looked up in time to watch Kylie’s shoulders roll outward changing her posture and taking her up to 5’8” “Wow…oh my God you look so tall to me!”
Kylie looked down “And, you…! You look absolutely tiny! So petite! I don’t get to look down on anyone outside of little kids”
“Well get used to it…you’re now well above average height for a female” Connie said “And to me…Wow! You look awesome at that size”
“I feel great…almost like this is the height I was always meant to be” Kylie added a bit sheepishly. “Like I was always small but I felt like I should be bigger” she laughed “But that’s just silly”
“No! No it is absolutely not silly” Kim interjected “It happens all the time! People are being born all the time into the wrong bodies. Wrong gender is the most obvious one that screws people up but you can’t imagine some of the other ways it messes with your head. Skinny girls who should be fat. Fat girls who should be skinny, tall girls who should be short, short girls who should be tall. Do you think people straighten curly hair or curl straight hair just because? No…it’s something that’s wrong” Kim was on a roll. “Even those people who say they were born in the wrong time…yep!”
“I spent a long time at 5’8”” Connie said as her body continued getting smaller as weight slipped away “but I do have to say that being this size is definitely appealing”
Kylie’s waist came out, her stomach softened as well. She felt her sides give way and sag creating for lack of a better word, love handles.
“Wow…seeing your body from the outside is…eye opening” Connie said as Kylie body continued aging.
The skin on Kylie’s chest roughened and darkened in places with sun spots, freckles and blemishes.
Kylie flipped her top off as she felt extra weight push into her bra, shoving it down and out as her breasts grew heavier and saggy as they changed into Connie’s. “Oh my…” was all Kylie said as she pressed her chin down to watch her chest change.
“I’m sorry” Connie started again.
“Oh get over yourself Connie, It’s absolutely fine” Kylie said waving a hand dismissively. “I am aging 35 years up over here…your body is fine…it’s what I wanted…I wanted to give this a try; don’t apologize for being you”
Connie felt everything on her tighten. Her sides lifted, her hips curved more distinctly as her waist caved inward and her stomach grew taut and lay perfectly flat as she stood with her back straight and her shoulders back. “You have no idea how much that means to me…”
“You’re a beautiful woman Connie and I can’t wait to look like you. It’s going to be fascinating spending some time as you” Kylie added as her upper arms softened and puffed out, more freckles and sun spots emerging all over her arms.
“Well I think I’m going to have the time of my life as you!” Connie’s voice was changing, rising in pitch with words spoken at a quicker pace “I mean, like, a night where I can just dance and be gorgeous! And not get tired or worry about my knee swelling up on me!”
“I can already feel that twinge in my knee” Kylie said flexing out her left leg.
“Yeah…you might want to try on some heels in that body but your knee and your feet are gonna tell you real quick that that’s a bad idea” Connie added with a quick little giggle at the end.
“I might still try” Kylie said with a smirk.
“Not if you want to be comfortable at all” Connie informed her “I gave up on heels years ago”
“I can only imagine what 4 inch stilettos you’ll pick out and then immediately discard at the reception to dance barefoot all night” Kylie rolled her eyes “You kids…”
Connie put her arms up and did a little dance. While laughing.
Her breasts were shrinking up small and pert against her chest. Her bra was useless; too big and not even necessary at the moment. Connie’s tiny breasts were exposed as her bra hung down loose, drooping to her stomach.
As the changes reached Connie’s shoulders and arms, she felt a renewed warmth wash over her. Her muscles twitched as they rejuvenated bringing her skin back tight with them. Fat and flab and sag vanished, transferring a few feet away to Kylie’s arms.
Connie walked over to Kylie and took her hands in her own “I want to watch this…just to compare”
Kylie shivered in anticipation as both of their hands began to change in opposite ways, mirroring each other as they reversed and switched.
Connie’s hands quickly changed from being the larger ones to the smaller ones as Kylie’s hands surged outward and her own quivered as they shrank down. The backs and palms of their hands changed. Every bump, mark, raised vein and rough spot left Connie and went to Kylie as Connie’s smoothed out into supple flawless skin.
Their fingers were next. Kylie’s thickened and grew as Connie’s slimmed and shrank. Their nails repositioned themselves in a dance; as they went one by one from thumb to pinky on each hand in turn changing shape into each other’s. Kylie’s now cut short and kept plain looking frailer and rougher while Connie’s grew long, matching sky blue polish appeared on her thick and strong and smooth nails.
Connie pulled her hands back marveling at the change. She held them up before her eyes splaying them out as wide as her now tiny hands could spread.
Kylie took stock of her own in a more subdued way.
“Oh my God we look ridiculous!” Connie said stifling a laugh momentarily before just letting it out. She grabbed Kylie by the shoulder and turned her towards the mirrors “My head on your body…your head on my body…”
“Oh yeah…we need to finish this up fast” Kylie said nodding. As she nodded, her neck skin began to soften and loosen, drooping and moving and giving way to show her age.
“Neck and hands and the tell-tale signs of age that you can’t hide” Connie admitted as her own neck pulled up nice and smooth and tight.
Kylie’s tiny, heart-shaped face began to widen and turn more oval in shape as her chin and jaw shifted, even creating a slight double chin if she dropped her head down. She watched in awe as her lips thinned and lines crept in at the corners, light at first but soon digging deeper.
Kylie bit down, baring her teeth as they felt different. Her teeth had even changed. Larger in places, longer and thinner in others, they were not as white or felt as strong. A few went crooked on the bottom as her tongue suddenly flicked out on its own, changing, it decided to pop out and go back.
Connie’s whole face seemed to shrink down, pulling in on itself as her chin came to a point and her jaw pulled up and back. Her lips filled out, fuller in youth, faint dimples appeared as the lines receded and vanished entirely. She chomped down with an audible clacking of her strong but small white, straight teeth.
Connie’s cheeks rose up, firming up in apple roundness. All signs of age were almost gone, she looked fresh and rejuvenated, her skin was flawless and felt supple and firm as her nose shrank up pert and button small.
Kylie felt her cheeks slacken. She brought up her hands to press down and rub them feeling the loose, rough skin. Her ears grew. The large hoop earrings dropped down lower as her ears got bigger. Her forehead began to shift as lines trenched across it. The lines then moved to the corners of her eyes which began a huge change, really the final change to her face.
Kylie’s nose grew out longer and wider, simply bigger than before but it fit her wider face better she had to admit. “Whoa” she said upon seeing her very dark, thick, and bold eyebrows suddenly turn blonde and shrink down to nearly nothing “Oh my gosh…” she said trailing off. Her fingers traced over the slight outline of her eyebrows as her eyes began to blink rapidly.
It felt like something was in them but just for a second. Her eyelashes thinned, spreading out spaces between them. Her eyes narrowed and shrank down smaller. They pulled down at the corners and their color faded from dark brown to light blue “I’ve got your face” she said as her scalp began to itch all over and tickle.
Connie was engrossed in her own changes. Her ears shrank up quite petite but they better fit her small face. The laugh lines at her eyes started to fade away followed quickly by the deeper lines in her forehead. The skin there shifted downward already beginning to move her hairline. She let out a low chuckling laugh as her eyebrows took off.
“Oh…my gosh!” she said as they grew super dark and thickened, really drawing attention to them, they became a defining feature of her looks “They’re like, double in size! I love it! I absolutely love it haha!”
Connie’s fingers ran over her thick brows as her eyelashes thickened and filled in. Her eyes blinked rapidly as they grew large and doe-like darkening from light blue to dark brown “And I’ve got yours” she replied as her head now itched like crazy.
Both women smiled the other’s smile. Both stared straight ahead into the mirror as their hair began to change.
Kylie stood still, her shoulders pulled in as her long flowing mane of thick brown hair began to lift up, pulling itself back in. It lifted away from her back, rose up to her shoulder blades all the while her head felt like gentle waves of massaging fingers were working.
Her hair rose up to the tops of her shoulders and then suspended slightly above. Now, it began to thin and lighten in color. The gray began at her part and she could see her scalp as it thinned along that line as well. Her hair was very light; light in color and light in weight. The front swept to the side mimicking Connie’s style, which, of course, was now her style.
Connie’s scalp warmed as hair began to explode its way out. Thick dark brown strands overwhelmed the thin light ones and her hair quickly began to grow long and luxurious.  It lay down on her shoulders and began to pile up until enough was there to push it off, cascading it down. Down to her breasts in the front and the past her shoulder blades in the back, layering and continuing to thicken as it went until it was exactly the hair that caught her attention when she first saw Kylie.
Connie thought it would be heavier than it was; it was a lot heavier than her old hairstyle, but it was surprisingly light and airy and she brought her hands up to it and made it bounce.
A wave of relaxation and warmth passed through them and both women reacted. Connie put her head back, her eyes fluttering as Kylie rose up on her toes and brought her shoulders in. Then, it passed.
