Business Professional
This client's closet was full of professional gems, especially her blazer collection! I pulled together these never-been-tried-before outfit combinations for her to wear for her speaking engagements and higher-level meetings. As I was styling these looks, we discovered she needed new professional footwear and a few neutral blouses.
Business Casual
Next, I built out this group of business casual looks. We learned that her selection for this category was thin, so updating it became a priority. We agreed to move her away from the skinny leg and long cardigan silhouette toward a straight leg, with waist length/just below the waist layering pieces.
Polished Weekend
Finally, I put together weekend outfits. She had fantastic casual boots she was not wearing, so I styled looks that incorporated them. We decided to update her denim and weave in bootcut, wide leg, and flare jeans into the mix. We also put a leather jacket and some fitted base layers on the shopping list.
After the Closet Consultation, each client receives a follow-up assessment, detailing what items are most needed in your closet to complete and update your looks. In this client's closet we learned we needed:
Dressy flats or low wedges (the client no longer wanted to wear heels)
Nice leather knee boots to pair with her longer skirts
Neutral blouses to complete some of the professional looks
Business casual pants - straight leg, full length or slightly cropped
Business casual tops
Business casual waist-length cardigans
Jeans - bootcut, wide leg, and flare legs.
Base layer shirts
Leather jacket
This client decided to book Virtual Styling as a next step after her Closet Consultation. I sourced the list above and created full outfits for her, guiding her through the fit and styling.
