Spring Renewal and Reinvention to Impress for Less

It always starts in the closet. Clearing what does not serve you is a confidence booster. Clearing what weighs you down in the closet or home is a freeing experience and perfect for spring!

Spring Tips for the closet and wardrobe:
* Change accessories to existing, good fitting outfits for an updated and renewed spring look.
* Clear clutter - pieces that drag you down. Integrate pieces that lift your spirits for great fit and color appropriate for spring.

Spring Tips for your home sanctuary:
* Create a breath of fresh air in your space by removing accessories, knick knacks and furniture pieces that block energy and clutter space.
* Change your accessories or paint colors for little $, creating a mini makeover to any room. I can assist you with a new look through simple changes.

Holiday Home Decor


Interior Design Makeovers & Holiday Home Decor:

*Give your home a face-lift with an interior design makeover for the holidays by adding rich jewel tone colors in simple accessories such as pillows, table cloth, area rug, sofa slip cover, etc.

*Clear the clutter in your home to make way for holiday decor. Find clever ways to store things and make a holiday donation with things you don't need.

*Simple, economical holiday decoration in your home can create an elegant look. Consider a smaller tree in a color scheme; a clear vase with a bag of raw cranberries, water and long stem red roses; and/or fresh garland in one focal point.

Executive Women & Men Dressing for Success

I find that many high-powered executive women dress in boxy, unattractive suits that don't best represent who they are or what they do. Suits don't have to look masculine. A woman can dress in a high quality suit or professional look that has great fit, color and style appropriate for what they do, but also for the woman that they are and need to embrace. I think it's a leftover from the executive world being a man's world and some women feel that in order to be taken seriously, they dress in a safe, nearly masculine attire that does not suit them or their body. I've had great success finding a polished, professional look for women that presents power and success while remaining feminine, even sexy. Women enjoy an organized, stress-free closet that I create and the conveniences of a personal shopper.

Additionally, men who are in high-level executive positions don't always find the best look for their body or style. Quality is key. Tailoring is also key in order to present a powerful look. Better to have fewer suits, but ones that have terrific fabric quality, fit, specific tailoring, and color coordinates best suited for a man's coloring and body type, and personal style. Fewer power suits, but many great quality shirts and ties are necessary. Ties are one of very few standout ways that a man can show color and style...hence, power ties. I enjoy assisting a man with a professional look created for his individual position and personality. It can do wonders for a man's presentation and cuts down on stress knowing exactly what to wear and utilizing a personal shopper saves him time.
