She first helped me sort through my closet to pick out items that I forgot I had and showed me how many options I already have that were great (plus helped me find some items to donate/discard). Then we went shopping together, which was the best part - she helped me update my style, feel confident in my new clothes, and helped me see the versatility of various pieces. Alison also offers a variety of packages and works with you to find the right fit for your needs. Would definitely recommend!

His shop assistant was sweeping and kind enough to say hello. There was one other person in the shop and seemed to be a personal acquaintance or friend as the owner and she spoke often to one another. Meanwhile, I buzzed around and thoroughly enjoyed both the many trinkets and decorative displays. Even the outside entry was cute and inviting. I'd pop in again if ever you n the area. I think if Carmine would have engaged a bit, I would have been more apt to browse a bit more and make a purchase. There's some adorable retro-style magnetic timers and gorgeous gold goldfish I was eyeballing. Maybe next time. Five stars for Vibe and unique finds. 2 stars for friendly and welcoming atmosphere.

Disappointing experience. The service did not meet the expectations that were set in writing,…read morecommunication became difficult, and when I raised concerns by email, I often did not receive a response at all, so I ended up cancelling - wouldn't you, after being ignored for a week ? The digital wardrobe was an interesting concept, but I did not find it particularly useful in practice. Most of the items I purchased were ultimately returned or sold. There were also purchases I did not feel I had approved, and when I attempted to address these concerns, I did not receive a meaningful response. Because my concerns remained unresolved and not responded to (I had given a week), I cancelled our final meeting as it's awkward having someone ignore you then come to your home. At that point, I no longer felt comfortable continuing the working relationship. The fashion suggestions were very basic ie "where a cardigan with a dress" and not what would expect from a stylist, more like something at the mall. This review reflects my personal experience as a paying client. Based on that experience, I would not work with this stylist again.

Candace is nothing short of amazing. She helped me in early February and together we went through…read moremy entire closet. Most importantly, she helped me narrow in on my vision and clothing style, and how the two would intersect. She also educated me on the different brands and how to tell good quality clothes from mass-produced clothing where you're paying a high price just for the brand. 8 months later and I have been slowly curating my ideal closet based on that initial consultation, and her lessons always run through my head whenever I go shopping. I also really appreciate that she's always available on her Facebook group as well whenever I have a question for a continuing education!

She is very detailed and creative and I would recommend her to anyone I know who is looking to spruce up their wardrobe for a special occasion or even just to change their daily style.

From there, she made a list of clothes I needed for my lifestyle and where to go to find them within my budget. Usually shopping days are very stessful, but with Candace's guidance and new education she provided, I am rocking it! Thank you Candace - 10 stars if I could!

They're very passionate about the fashion industry and the quality of work they put out. They are very creative in many aspects of design.

Which makes their designs unique, trendy, yet classic, and a competitive contender in today's industry. They're also super fun to work with. They both have a grounded, positive attitude that can be quite infectious on set. Most importantly, they listen and can be very flexible. They have a strong desire to meet quality at it's finest and are able to tactfully give their honest feedback when needed. They have been taking great care of me with their services throughout out the years and have never let me down. I highly recommend them. You won't regret it!

It's so easy to default to "jeans and a tee shirt" in LA, but I just knew I could present myself better. I finally decided it was time to work with a stylist, and I'm SO glad I found Jillian! She helped me identify the colors and silhouettes that complement my body type and coloring, and gently explained which pieces weren't doing me favors and why. We uncovered so many great items already in my closet that I didn't have the confidence to wear or didn't know how to style cohesively, and she transformed them into some truly killer outfits. We also set aside pieces that needed tailoring, and she provided a thoughtful list of items to purchase to round out my wardrobe (I was definitely due for a refresh). I was able to painlessly let go of a ton of outdated pieces, and I honestly can't believe everything fits in my closet now! Within a week, I was already getting compliments from my fashion coworkers, which feels like the highest praise. I feel like a more professional, confident, elevated yet authentic version of myself. Jillian is incredibly sweet, fun, and intuitive; the FIVE HOURS we spent together absolutely flew by. I'm already looking forward to a refresh with her when the seasons change!

Carol is great! She was recommended to me by French Hand Laundry. I brought my antique wedding…read moredress to her after another tailor almost ruined it. From the minute I walked into Carol's home/sewing studio, I knew that she was going to be able to save my dress. Why? Because I quickly learned that she had the three qualities essential for a good tailor: experience (an M.A. in Costume Design and 30+ years of alterations), creativity, and the ability to listen. Believe me, that last quality is extremely important in a tailor. I learned the hard way. Carol warmly listened to my wishes, concerns, and even amateur alteration ideas, before thoughtfully and gently examining the dress, and brainstorming ways to fix it. She is very creative. I like to sew and tailor my own clothes so I appreciate that she listened to my ideas, even if they weren't necessarily good, or economical. Lastly, Carol has experience working with antique garments, which in my case was extremely beneficial. Not everyone understands or appreciates Edwardian era clothing. Carol respected the history of the dress, while also making a couple of alterations to make it more contemporary. One of the alterations she did was to take in the sleeves. At the time, I kept asking her to take them in more, but in retrospect she was absolutely right in stopping where she did. If she'd taken them in like I originally asked I probably wouldn't have been able to lift my arms! Not to mention that she was working with a 100 year old dress, which, while not fragile, could have ripped when I was dancing. The other tailor wouldn't even take in the sleeves, and then Carol went and took them in! She also gave me a lot of pep talks. And good advice on the proper undergarments to wear under the dress. And tips on what to do if I broke out in a sweat (hello pit stains!). Lastly, her sewing studio is very clean. She even laid a sheet on the carpet for me to walk on, just in case I picked up fluff from a black garment she had been working on. And she hand ironed my dress!!! It was so smooth that even though I had to transport my dress from Los Angeles to Cape Cod, where I got married, it stayed wrinkle free and I didn't even bother to try to get it ironed before my wedding day. As my friend said at the wedding, the dress "fit me like a glove." Thank you, Carol!

I purchased a dress and in the moment of being so excited to find a polka dot dress, I guess I didn't notice how the bottom of the zipper made me look like I had a duck tail (see before photo.) I explained my issue to Carol (who by the way is my cousin and lives across the US from me) and she said she could fix it. Before shipping the dress to her, I sent a couple photos so she could see the exact problem. She was confident she would make the zipper fit properly. She worked her magic and I no longer have a duck tail (see after photo.) I was thrilled because I wanted to wear the dress to an upcoming event. I recommend Carol for anything from original designs to alterations - you will be very pleased with the final creation.
