Let's go shopping!
/I find shopping is a largely polarizing experience for women. You either LOVE it or you HATE it. Many of my clients truly hate shopping. Some don’t mind it but realize that they are not so great at it. Either way, I can promise you that shopping with me is a completely different experience than trying to go it alone.
I take away the stress of shopping.
There’s the stress of the actual shopping experience. I know you know what I mean, unknown pricing, too many salespeople bothering you, not enough salespeople to help, you have to hold your clothes and your purse and your coat.
There’s also the stress we put on ourselves. Our insecurities come into play. You may be unsure of your size or uncertain of your style.
And then there’s a simple fact that many people shop wrong. Yes, there is a wrong way to shop.
We want your shopping trip to be purposeful. I call this mindful shopping, we go in with a plan and come out successful!
First, I spend some time to get to know you, your style, lifestyle, and challenges. If you're shopping on your own, it’s best for you to take some time to think about what clothes work best for you and what you need to get your desired look.
Next, we will plan where we’ll shop. When we work together, I base this on your budget, style, size, and fit. It doesn’t make sense to shop somewhere that doesn’t fit all of these criteria, and I am all about maximizing our time.
To ultimately maximize our time, I will work with the store ahead of time to make sure they have the sizes and pieces we want to try on available on the day of our trip. As a fashion industry veteran, my connections and relationships with the stores will get us excellent customer service.
When you get to the store, you will find I have been there for a while already. I will have a dressing room set up just for you, with some pieces I have chosen that I know you’ll love. We get to jump right into the fun of trying things on and creating outfits.
Did you play dress up as a little girl? You can relive that fun in the dressing room. I serve as the go-between, helping you get what you want and need from the store’s salespeople without you having to feel like a nuisance or awkward, at all. There’s no judgment, and I show you things that flatter you. My whole goal is for you to feel amazing every step of the way!
My process involves putting together full outfits from the right bra to the perfect shoes. I want you to go home with clothes you know how to wear and can wear from day one. If you have clothes at home that you love but don’t know how to wear, bring them with you! I will help you style those items so you can finally get some use out of them.
“But what if I don’t find anything?”
That has NEVER happened! Brace yourself because most of the time, the response I get is “holy crap, that’s a lot of stuff!”
“So if you’re not pushy, how do I know what to buy?”
You’ll know! That’s the whole point, to find the pieces you love and feel amazing in. I’ll help you determine which pieces are worth investing a little more money in and what is worth getting a less expensive version. I will help you find the right clothes for you. The right fit, the perfect style, and in all the right combinations. Our shopping trip will be fun and painless!
