Everyone has their own personal style that is unique to their life, I will help you find yours!

Everyone has their own personal style that is unique to their life, I will help you find yours!

Through the years, I see in my clients, just how important it is to be confident and comfortable in the clothes you wear. In your job, with your family, on a date, at school pickup line…wherever you are. Because when you are confident in your look and comfortable in your clothes, positivity radiates through you in all you do. To that end, I’ve built a styling business around helping my clients feel their best, and a process to help us accomplish that.

1.     I first start in my clients closets where I get to know what they like, their size, their color preference, the items that they love, and the items they don’t wear. We then go through their closet and together we decide what stays, what should go and why. Depending on the item, it can either be given to charity or consignment. Now we are starting with a clean closet!

2.     Next we do a pairing exercise, putting outfits together, and taking pictures so that you have a take-away of all the great outfits you already had hiding in your closet. I then make a list of items needed to enhance what you already have and what other complimentary additions would work with your wardrobe.

3.     For some clients I take it one step further and shop with them or for them to fill those gaps. We’ll bring in some new pieces that make you comfortable in your skinstand out if you want too, stand out in a crowd. I “coach shop” with clients who don’t mind shopping; this helps direct them and give them focus for future trips without me. Or, I shop for them, and set up a mini-shop for them so they try on all my finds.

Shopping with Intention:  

i.e. Buying with a plan to wear the item multiple seasons, ways, and for years to come. When I buy something, I love it, I don’t simply find it acceptable or okay for the situation. I teach what I practice to my clients, because I prefer longevity to what’s the latest trend thats “in” right now. Life is too short for a mediocre closet that doesn’t stand the test of time. Getting dressed should be a breeze!
