I was on a wrap-up call with a client the other day, reflecting on her experience, her personal style and revisiting the questionnaire she filled out at the beginning of our work together. We started talking about the kinds of questions women are so often asked about style and body image. “If you could fix … Read More
Since my retreat in Italy, I’ve been sitting blissfully in a kind of quiet awe. I wrote in a post the other day (one of my faves from the trip) that I felt lucky. And I do. Not just because these women trusted me and this experience, but because of who they are. The hearts … Read More
I was on a call with a long-time client—someone I love for her honesty and self-awareness. We were talking about what it really means to show up for our friends, our commitments, and ourselves, even when things feel heavy. Before working with me, Yvette sometimes felt like she was only “half-showing up.” Her outfits didn’t … Read More

I came across a meme that’s stuck with me. It said: “New Year, New You”—but crossed out “New You” and replaced it with “More You!” YES PLEASE. We often start the year driven by outside voices telling us what we should strive for. But these all-or-nothing goals make the stakes impossibly high, leaving little room … Read More
I’m excited for you to try this as a start to the new year! Every year my husband and I do a big review and planning session on January 1st. There are no rules (just like in fashion 😉). We just let our thoughts flow without judgment (like your personal style 😉). One of my … Read More
We’re gearing up for all of the holiday activities here in Asheville, and I know there will be endless photos taken between now and the end of the year! It’s that time of year when your photo is being taken for holiday cards and family/friend gatherings. Knowing how to stand and where to put your … Read More
I recently was interviewed on a podcast and something absolutely crazy happened! The podcast is hosted by a client of mine, Marta Sokol-Klepacka, who lives in Scotland, and who I styled for her branding and marketing photoshoot. During the interview from my home office in Asheville, she told me about criticism she received from another … Read More
