A comprehensive assessment of your personal style with online shopping assistance
Includes 2, 60-minute 1:1 Zoom style sessions with your stylist and an additional 2 hours of online shopping (including curated shopping links) done on your behalf by your stylist.
You’ll start with a 60-minute coaching kickoff call to discuss the styles, cuts, fabrics and brands that are best suited for you. Included is an assessment of other aspects of your image (hairstyle, make-up, eyeglasses etc.) The balance of this session is spent reviewing your closet, mapping out a plan for you to get these spaces in top working order and a review of any photos you have sent ahead of the session.
During your zoom time, your stylist will help “shop your closet” while creating new outfits from what you already own. Your stylist will also help you build your online shopping skills with specific website recommendations and strategies that maximize your budget.
Once you determine what is missing from your closet, your stylist will do an online shop (one hour) for you and provide up to 10 shopping links. When your items arrive, you will receive a second 60-minute zoom call to decide what to keep and return and to discuss any outstanding questions you have.
Your stylist will then do an additional online ship (one hour) to round out your clothing and accessory needs.

A focused approach to online shopping
Includes a 45-minute 1:1 Zoom style session and 1.5 hours of online shopping (including curated shopping links) done on your behalf by your stylist.
You’ll get started by reviewing photos with your stylist of outfits you send ahead of time to help train your eye to recognize the styles, cuts, colors and brands that work best for your proportions, natural coloring and lifestyle while also getting advice on how to make each outfit work better.
After your call, you’ll receive a session summary and up to 10 shopping links of key items to enhance what you already own along with new pieces to consider adding to your wardrobe. Order these items directly online for delivery to your home. We choose online merchants that match your budget and personal style as well as those that make it easy to return and exchange sizes.
You will have access to your stylist by email for any follow-up questions for up to 2 weeks after your session summary is delivered.

Style advice for events, interviews & everyday life
You determine the focus and your stylist will provide up to 2 hours of coaching between 1:1 Zoom time and online shopping based on your needs. If you choose to have her shop for you, you will receive up to 7 curated shopping links.
