Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly does a personal style consultant do?

A personal style consultant assists you in refining your unique fashion preferences to build a wardrobe that not only suits your body type and personal taste but also compliments your lifestyle. We offer a number of personal style services, including wardrobe editing; reviewing your existing closet to identify which pieces are working well and which are not; curating a list of wardrobe additions to enhance and or fill gaps and finally, personal shopping where we take you to targeted stores to find the perfect pieces that are missing or could enhance your outfits.  With strategy and an eye for the most flattering pieces, the result will be a streamlined, up-to-date closet with clothing and accessories that make you look and feel your best.

How can your services help me elevate my personal style?

Our services are designed to help you achieve a polished and cohesive look that reflects your unique personality. We spend time to thoroughly understand your fashion and lifestyle goals, the aspects you find challenging and the look and feel you desire.  We analyze your current wardrobe, then provide feedback and personalized recommendations on the details that will set you apart.

What is a closet assessment and how does it benefit me?

A closet assessment involves a thorough review of your existing wardrobe. Together, we evaluate your clothing and accessories to identify what works, what doesn’t, and what is missing. This process helps streamline your wardrobe by keeping it current and versatile, knowing that when you get dressed in the morning what you choose is flattering, stylish and confidence-boosting. The result is a more organized, functional and efficient closet. 

Can you explain what a capsule wardrobe is and how you create one?

A capsule wardrobe is a curated collection of essential clothing pieces that can be mixed and matched to create a variety of outfits. It focuses on quality over quantity and ensures that every item works well with others. To create a capsule wardrobe, we assess your style preferences, body type, and lifestyle needs to select versatile, timeless pieces that offer maximum flexibility and minimize decision fatigue.

Do you offer virtual consultations, or are your services strictly in-person?

Currently we offer in-person consultations. 

How does personal shopping with a style consultant work?

Personal shopping is curated to fit our client’s needs.   We first meet to assess your wardrobe and identify your goals.  After we edit existing pieces and highlight areas where you can update or fill in gaps, we will create a list of recommended additions and then a short-list of stores where we will accompany you to shop and select pieces for you to try on that we think meet your closet needs.  During this process we teach you how to find key items to incorporate, highlight seasonal trends, and discuss proper fit and fabric. This experience will leave you with a toolkit of skills to be more efficient when you shop; ensuring that the pieces you choose fit seamlessly into your wardrobe.

What can I expect during a typical shopping session with you?

During a typical shopping session with us, you can expect a highly personalized and enjoyable experience tailored to your unique style goals and preferences. Over the course of this 2-3 hour session, we take the shopping list curated from our in-person closet edit and guide you through a pre-evaluated selection of stores or online platforms, ensuring that each piece compliments your existing wardrobe and aligns with your personal style.

If you prefer a more streamlined approach, we also offer a “pre-shop”, where, in advance of meeting, we select and pull items from select stores that fit your criteria, saving you time and making the process more efficient. Throughout the session, we offer hands-on fashion advice, help you create stylish outfit combinations, and ensure that each item enhances your overall look. 

Can you assist with updating my professional wardrobe for work?

Absolutely! We specialize in helping professionals refine their wardrobes to match their career goals and personal style. We’ll assess your current wardrobe, identify gaps, and suggest updates that will enhance your image and boost your confidence at work. Whether you need a complete overhaul or just a few key pieces, we’ll work together to create a look that aligns with your professional aspirations.

We offer day, evening and weekend appointments, in-person to ensure you can fit style consultations into your busy life.

How do you determine the best colors and styles for my body type and lifestyle?
