Maria, 40, works in technology
What Was The Challenge
After years of working at home, Maria was returning to a business casual office and would sometimes have to travel to meetings that would require her to be a little more formal. Most of the pieces that she had left in her closet from going into the office were outdated.
What Was The Outcome
Maria told me that she often must travel at the last minute, and mornings in her house are crazy. I made sure that the pieces could easily be mixed and matched, so she wasn’t spending time thinking about what to wear. She also needed shoes that she could wear in the airport right to her meetings, a wedge heel was the best solution, because it still gave her a little height, but was comfy.
What Did Maria Have To Say
“Nicole was pleasant and easy to work with. She understood what I needed right away and was very responsive to feedback throughout the process. I have little fashion sense and I hate shopping, but I now have a whole new work wardrobe, with guidance on how to wear it, and Nicole made it easy and painless. I highly recommend working with her!”
Anne, 50
What Was The Challenge
Anne had to find a mother-of-the-bride dress and had looked everywhere. Most of the dresses were matronly, didn’t flatter her, or the wrong color.
What Was The Outcome
Anne and I discussed what her dream dress looked like, and if there were any requirements, i.e., did it need sleeves, or need to be a certain color? After she gave me her list, I sent her a selection of dresses that fit the bill.
What Did Anne Say?
“I had a personal stylist. Working with Nicole was a great first experience. She learned who I was, listened to my requests, provided so many options in an organized format with pics and links, and responded quickly and honestly. She offered suggestions, styles that I felt comfortable with, and ones that were out of my comfort zone. I trusted her selections and suggestions and went out of my comfort zone with great success. Ordering was easy. Getting feedback was perfect and validating (like shopping with an honest friend). And dresses arrived (I was shopping for a wedding event) quickly, and I’m all set. Way ahead of time. I didn’t feel rushed. This took one more thing off my plate.”
Blair, 55, Works in consumer goods
What Was The Challenge
Blair’s body was changing, and her old dress style wasn’t working anymore. She needed help with conforming her wardrobe to her age.
What Was The Outcome
Blair was easy to work with and was struggling with what a lot of clients struggle with, her body changing. She has a great figure; the weight had just shifted. I showed her how to dress her new body and items that flattered it.
What Did Blaire Have To Say
“Nicole is so good at what she does! She has the fashion sense I lack, and the process was quick, efficient, and fun. No agonizing over choices and trying to figure out what goes with what and what looks good on me. She makes those decisions with a quick look and with confidence. I can’t recommend her highly enough. I will use her again.”
