It’s Monday morning. You have a big day ahead of you with a really important meeting that you have been planning for the entire previous week. You have the perfect outfit picked out. You are getting the kids ready to go out the door for school and you are about to walk out the door when it happens. Right at the exact moment you go to take a sip of your coffee, your youngest kiddo bumps into you. Your coffee spills ALL OVER your blouse. You do not have time for this! The panic sets in as you begin to think about what other top you have that is appropriate for this big meeting that goes with what you already have on. You run into your closet to quickly determine that the other blouse that would work does not fit. UGH! So you grab a simple t-shirt that doesn’t look that great, but it fits and will “do”. As you drive to the office, your mind is in chaos and you just don’t feel on-point. There is an underlying feeling of stress and doubt running through your mind as you step into the office.
When you have a closet that is limited in its abilities, it can challenge you every single day when you want to look and feel your best.
Why should I work with a Personal Stylist?
- Feel less overwhelmed by choices. I can help you to navigate what options work best for you, your lifestyle, your body, and your personal style.
- Saves you time. When I shop for you seasonally, you no longer need to worry about the frustrating trip to the mall or shopping online. For those times you DO need to choose something yourself, you have been educated about what will work and what will not.
- Clear the clutter. I go through your closet with you and we eliminate pieces that no longer fit (either your body or your life) so all that’s left are clothes you feeling amazing in.
- Eliminate insecurity. You will know that the pieces in your closet are perfect for you.
- Have an actual personal style. Part of the process is to go through an entire Personal Style Development. This is a conversation that we have to develop a style that feels like you and makes you feel like a total boss.
- No longer fear making fashion faux pas. There will be no more “trends gone wrong” when you work with me. I help you to navigate the trends and which ones work for you and which ones don’t. I also help you to know which are worth the splurge and which are not.
- Saves you money. Working within your budget, we determine the absolute must haves that are going to help you have a well-rounded wardrobe that is built with quality pieces that will last.
- No more impulse purchases. You will understand if colors work for you, what styles work for you, and if an item is worthy of taking up real estate in your closet.
- No more decision fatigue. Time is precious in the morning. With me on your team, you have complete outfits already curated at your disposal so on those days you are lacking creativity (or time), all you need to do is check your closet app and outfits are at-the-ready.
- You won’t feel bored with your closet. I help create amazing outfits that make you happy. And when you hire me seasonally, we choose a selection of the perfect new pieces that bring a spark of excitement back into your closet.
- No more clothes in your closet that just don’t work. Knowing how you live your life helps to dictate the types of clothes you have in your closet. I help you to ensure the pieces in your closet work for the life you have NOW, not a style or life you had a decade ago.
- Step outside of your comfort zone. I’m here to push you just a bit so that you find new ways to wear things and new items that you love that you may have never given a second thought.
What is it LIKE to work with a Personal Stylist?
When you hire me, you are hiring a trusted, knowledgeable advisor and expert who does more than just tell you what you need. I work alongside you, in conversation, to develop a style that is perfectly you. It’s important for this next-level style to be one that you are excited about. Yes, I will push you outside of the comfort zone of your boundaries. But, here’s the thing: what got you here will not get you THERE. To the magical there that is feeling joyful when you step into your closet and feeling like FIRE when you get dressed every single day. So what does the process look like? Some of this depends upon the package that you purchase, so I’m going to share what my TRANSFORMATION package looks like.
First, we will have our initial style consultation. During this virtual meeting, we will discuss everything from your lifestyle to what your dream style looks like. You will be assigned some simple homework so that we can see where you are now, what’s working, and what isn’t.
Second, I will create a Mood Board for you. This will give direction to where we are headed. You will sign off on the final board before we begin selecting anything new or culling your closet.
Next, we will learn your perfect colors through a color discovery appointment. Color impacts everything and the colors that you wear are important. We need to choose clothing that allows you to glow. The colors you wear have a purpose and we will talk about that.
Next up: The Closet Session. During this session, we will go through your closet and decide, based upon the vision for your style, what pieces are worthy of space in your closet, and which will be best served in someone else’s closet. 😉During this session, I will also determine your body type and shape, and we will discuss your Style Code, which is my unique way of looking at your style personality. We will begin to make a list of what is missing in your closet for the vision and style we have created. I will give you guidance on clothing donation or consignment.
Guess what time it is?! Shopping time! Only, you don’t need to lift a finger (unless you really want to). I will shop for items that will be perfect for your new style, filling in the gaps as discovered in our previous session.
Our next session will be a Wardrobe session. This is where you try on the clothes that I have selected for you in my Style Studio. They will be ready to go in outfits and you will look at trying on clothing in a whole new light! I will provide you with Tailoring recommendations to make sure that your new pieces have the perfect fit.
I will do a small follow-up shop for any items we discovered that we need to go with the new pieces that you decided to keep. Maybe a new necklace or a cami that you need to go with your looks. I will handle any returns on items you decided not to keep.
Finally, you will receive a digitized closet of your new items with 20 brand new looks that will be ready-to-go head-to-toe! You will also receive a Personal Style Profile with all of the details about YOU and your Style for easy reference whenever you need it!
One more bonus of working with me: I TEACH. I am not going to just tell you to buy this style or this cut. NO! I will explain WHY as we go so that if you find yourself out shopping on vacation or with a friend, you will understand why certain pieces work for you and you can make educated purchases when you aren’t with me!
Does this sound like heaven?! This specific package is 30 days to your perfect style for your life and body RIGHT NOW (dependent on scheduling, of course). And, before you ask, YES, all of this can be done virtually if you do not live in the Charlotte Metro!
