Styling is where artistry meets analysis. While personal preference plays a significant role—what colors make you feel confident, what textures you’re drawn to—there’s also a methodical side to creating balanced looks.

The artistic elements include color theory (finding shades that complement your natural coloring), texture combinations (mixing smooth silks with nubby knits for visual interest), and pattern play. These choices reflect personal expression and emotional response.

Simultaneously, there are measurable elements: understanding body proportions, identifying balance points, and working with visual lines to create harmony. These techniques follow principles that can be learned and applied systematically.

As your trusted stylist, I balance both worlds. I honor your subjective preferences and share new ideas while also applying proven techniques to enhance your natural features. I translate complex styling concepts into practical recommendations that work specifically for you.

My approach is collaborative. I bring expertise in the art and science of style, but you bring essential knowledge about yourself. Together, we’ll create a wardrobe that feels authentically yours while incorporating principles that make getting dressed easier and more successful.

If you needed a few more solid reasons to book a style session with me, here they are (LOL): 

• Feeling good and confident is consistently one of the top reasons people seek styling help. Research shows that how we dress significantly impacts our self-perception and confidence.
• Comfort in clothing – Physical comfort has become increasingly important, especially post-pandemic, as people have developed stronger preferences for comfortable clothing that still looks polished.  I’m here to help you figure that out.
• Ease of styling and maintenance -The desire for simplified wardrobes and easy-care clothing is a major trend, and concepts like capsule wardrobes and “uniform dressing” are gaining popularity.  One piece can be worn in many different ways if you know how to style it!
• Time and budget considerations – Economic concerns are very relevant, as many people view a stylist as an investment that might save money by preventing costly purchasing mistakes.  Yes!!
• Sustainability considerations – Many consumers now care about fashion’s ethical and environmental aspects.  You’re talking my love language!  I’ve done A LOT of research on this subject and would love to share it with anyone who will listen (haha!).
• The psychological benefits of decluttering and organizing one’s wardrobe can begin with less anxiety and increased mindful consumption.
• A personal stylist can help develop a consistent personal brand and bring ease to your morning routine.
