Frequently Asked Questions

Should I wait to lose weight before working with you? 

Absolutely not. You and your body are constantly changing in midlife. And you deserve to have clothes that fit the body you have right now. If you are on a weight loss journey, we’ll consider pieces that work with fluctuating weight (you had me at “elastic waists”) or pieces that can easily be tailored if needed.

How much should I expect to spend on clothing for the season?

This will vary based on your unique needs and preferences, but I want you to try as much as you’d like, but only purchase what you absolutely love and works for you. 

My philosophy is to focus on quality over quantity pieces. You can see the types of brands I often recommend here.

How much time should I plan to dedicate when working with you?

Plan on a few hours each week. We’ll work together to schedule all our sessions and calls ahead of time.

How does the shopping work? 

Curated shopping links are included in my signature package, The Curated Experience. We’ll come up with an intentional shopping list together and I’ll hand select several options in each category for you to choose from.

We’ll have a call to review all the picks and I can help you decide what to try.  You’ll be able to purchase directly from the links.

Once all your purchases arrive, we’ll have a virtual fitting to help you decide what to invest in. You’ll try everything on in the comfort of your own home without distractions and feeling pressure to buy something that isn’t perfect for you. 

I know fit can be tricky, so I choose retailers that make returns easy and are convenient for you.

Do you offer in person shopping?

I don’t offer in person shopping because of the intentionality and highly curated selections I believe in. I get the most selection from sourcing options online retailers.
