The Secret to Simplified Dressing

 I hear from women all of the time some version of the following: I don't need new clothes, I don't wear half of what I own. It's hard to put together a great outfit in my closet. I haven't worn what I bought last season, I don't need something new. I bought this piece because I loved it, but I have never figured out how to wear it. Do any of those statements sound familiar? GUILTY! We create so much confusion, chaos, and stress in our closets without even realizing what we are doing. The truth is that most women, when out shopping, tend towards the pretty statement pieces and ignore the basics.  When you do this is when you find that you "have a closet full of clothes with nothing to wear".

Day to Night Style - How to Kick Your Look Up a Notch in 5 Simple Steps!

No one wants to add more laundry to the mix (it's the one thing that NEVER leaves us, after all), so why not make use of what you have already put on your body? I love the idea of day-to-night style because as a Stylist, I want my Clients to own pieces that are versatile enough in their closets that they work for different occasions.
