Curious What It Would Be Like to Work with a Personal Style Coach?

 Working with a Personal Stylist is one of those things that many times gets filed into women's brains that it is only for the rich and famous.  When many people think of a Stylist, they think of the Red Carpet and the Awards Shows when the stars and starlets are getting dressed to-the-nines and posing for photographers.

The exciting truth is that Personal Stylists are not only reserved for millionaires.  Woot Woot!  So, most everyday women are not getting glammed up and walking Red Carpets, so is a Stylist only for women who have special events coming up?  Again, the answer is NO!

At this point, you may be thinking, "Alright, Michelle, just give it to me.  How can a normal, non-famous, non-millionaire person work with a Personal Stylist?"

The options that are available can vary depending on who you choose to work with as a Personal Stylist and what he or she offers.  For the purposes of this post, I'm going to share the ways in which I help my Clients turn their closets into a happy place that brings no stress, speaks uniquely to her, and makes it easy to get dressed every day for whatever life throws at you.

Some women need just a "Style Quick Service", some may need help being styled for a photo shoot, some may desire a longer term service. 

Here are some of the services that I offer inside of my Personal Style Coaching packages. Not all services are offered in every package.  This is an overview of the different service offerings:

Style Synchrony Framework. This part of the process is very important whether you are scheduling a Single Service Session or a longer term package.  Together, we will go through my 3 part process to determine your true-to-you style.  We will complete a Lifestyle Analysis, Body Type Analysis, and Style Personality Assessment.

I work with my Clients to create a vision of their style and what does look like and feel like to help them build confidence in their style.

Many Clients need a single service which could include something like Special Event styling for a Wedding or big Celebration.  Some Clients have a vacation or a business trip approaching and need styling for that.  

I can help my Clients by shopping for them.  This is great for women who get stressed out by shopping or who don't have the time to shop.  For my Clients who have a longer-term package, this can include shopping over-time so that they are consistently adding new styles, in their style, to their closet.

I create Look Books for my Clients.  What is a Look Book you may wonder?  For women who have troubles putting together outfits and/or don't have the time to think about putting together outfits, this is a slam dunk service!  As your Stylist, I will create digitized looks from pieces you already own and from pieces that we may have recently purchased for you.  Inside of some packages, you get new monthly looks added and if you have a trip come up for business or play, I can create a set number of looks for that as well.

If your closet is a mess, some of my packages include help getting them right into shape!  I guide you in how to edit your closet, provide organization suggestions, and can use my Stylist eye to help you with those pieces you aren't quite sure if they fit your new style or not.  As part of this process, I will perform a Wardrobe Evaluation so that we can see where you have gaps in your wardrobe and holes that need filling.

If you have always dreamed of knowing your ideal color palette that lights you up from the outside-in, one of my longer term packages offers Color Analysis.  Color is an extremely powerful tool not only for communication, but also for the impact on how different colors look on you.  If you have ever put on a piece of clothing and felt like it drained the color from your face, or alternatively, you put on a color and get compliments left and right about how young you look or how you look so refreshed, THAT is the power of color!

Does having a Stylist on-hand to answer style questions as they come up sound like it could be helpful?  My longer term packages come with this and Clients find it so helpful as they are getting dressed or out shopping or packing for a trip to have their Stylist's advice right at their fingertips!

We hire experts to handle many things:  Accountants that handle our taxes, Financial Planners that take care of our finances, Personal Trainers to help keep us in shape, Housecleaners to clean our homes, Landscape companies to take care of our yards, Hair Stylists to cut and color our hair...hiring a Personal Stylist is just another tool in your toolbelt that allows for you to focus on your own gifts and to spend time on the things you enjoy doing!

The bottom line is that if you are ready to take your style and your vibe to the next level, if you are tired of feeling like you don't know how to dress your body because your body is changing or your lifestyle is evolving, hiring a Stylist is going to be a great investment!  The confidence and joy you feel, the career boost you have been looking for can happen through the power of style.  It's not just for the rich and famous.  

I am accepting limited Clients each month so that I can give the appropriate time and attention to each Client.  If you are interested in learning more, visit my website and schedule a consultation call.  I would be honored to help you find your true style!

Stylishly Yours,

Understanding Color Analysis

Color Analysis is a hot topic right now. I don't think it has been this top-of-mind since the 1980s when Color Me Beautiful came out. Thanks to those TikTok filters, there has been a new resurgence of interest. I warn you against those filters. There are just some things that technology can't see, can't do and I wouldn't trust them over a trained eye. Now, you might be thinking, "Getting my colors done by a trained analyst is expensive and this is FREE." Well, my friend, you get what you pay for.  When you think about the impact that knowing your perfect colors has on your wardrobe, the fee is quite small. An accurate color analysis by a trained professional will help you save time and money when you shop. You will be able to build your wardrobe around these colors, which means you will spend LESS on clothing that doesn't suit you. MUCH LESS than the fee a trained color analyst charges. The opposite is true if you go by a free filter on TikTok. Do you REAL...

Leveling Up: Setting a Higher Standard For Yourself

 Raise your hand if life feels like it's moving at the speed of light! via GIPHY Our lives are very busy and oh-so-full these days. That's not necessarily a BAD thing, but the busier that life is, the more we tend to neglect ourselves and our needs as women. Oftentimes what that looks like is looking back on the whirlwind and wondering when we got so behind on tasks and realize that in the day-to-day routine grind, we don't feel aligned with some of the things we are doing on autopilot. The joy in life has been a bit dampened by the cut and paste aspect of life.  Let's Identify Where We Feel Stuck Take a well-deserved quiet moment to yourself to sit down and think about your life. Consider the following areas in your life: Career Relationships Health Personal Growth Style (you KNEW this had to be there, right?!) Ask yourself these questions: Are you satisfied? If you aren't satisfied, what needs to be altered? What could increase your happiness in each area? As you ...

How to look stylish in your 40s (and beyond)

You're here! Congratulations because that is Step 1: Caring enough to want to make a change. Here's the thing, nothing changes if nothing changes. The biggest roadblock is if you aren't fed up ENOUGH with how you are feeling about your style (and likely yourself), you will never make a change. That's not you though, my friend, because you found this blog and opened it!  Step one is complete. Let's celebrate that! via GIPHY Here's what you already know. Style in your 40s and beyond (we will call this "midlife" going forward) is...different.  👉Our bodies are changing. Things don't sit where they used to. 👉Our priorities have changed. Most of the time, we aren't out all night at the bars. 👉Our lives have a new focus, oftentimes around our family. 👉Fashion and clothing is not typically geared toward women our age. It's commonplace for women who are in midlife to feel like they are lacking style or being left-behind, but that doesn't hav...
