HIRE NEJLA! Just do it. If you're like me, hiring a stylist seemed like a totally unnecessary…read moreexpense. A huge splurge. I'd always said I'd do it someday, as I kept dressing in whatever had survived since college. I'm a 35-year-old professional; I needed to level up! I hired Nejla for a closet cleanse, four hours of shopping, and a look book shoot so I could remember how to put everything together. One thing I was dreading was the six hours of hanging out with a stranger, making small talk. I should not have worried! She's so personable and easy to talk to. Nejla is very budget conscious and got my comfort level/budget up front. When I mean a new wardrobe--we bought everything from shoes to rompers. It was worth every penny, but more than that I so appreciated Nejla's approach. She talked me through the whys of what she was selecting and left me feeling super empowered too. Even our salesperson at Nordstrom was like a buddy by the end of our trip (4 hours flew by, which I couldn't believe!). Do it, you won't regret it!!

Cultivating my own personal style was something I always struggled with (probably due to the fact I…read moregrew up wearing uniforms to school, but I digress). I became even more fashionably lost during the pandemic -- after all, like many people I spent 2 years working from home and wearing nothing but leggings. I landed my dream role working at a fashion magazine last summer, and I wanted to walk in feeling confident in what I wore. Nejla absolutely came to my rescue. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little hesitant at first, but Nejla was professional, and quite frankly calming from day one. Her method is well thought out and really works. We got rid of dozens of pieces during my closet clean out that no longer served me, and during the shopping process she not only leaned into clothes that I was drawn to, but also got me out of my comfort zone. She had me try on pieces that I never would've imagined wearing (this is where you really have to trust the process), and now some of those items are staples for me. I've always hated shopping -- and i know a lot of people can relate -- but she makes it an incredibly fun experience, and the four hours FLEW. My favorite part, though? Putting together the lookbook. After our shopping spree she put together 60 (!) outfits and curated them in a shared photo album so I can go back and find inspiration when I need it. Okay I lied -- my favorite (and the most invaluable) part of the whole experience is the confidence I gained in myself. I never received compliments on my outfits in the past and felt a little mismatched. Since working with Nejla I now walk into any room feeling like a million bucks, whether i'm at the office, on a date, or just hanging out with friends. And without fail, I get compliments on almost every single outfit. Nejla helped me become more like myself in a way that I never thought was possible. For that I am forever grateful.

I was recommended to Jenny by a friend and I am so glad I found her. I am a 40yr old working…read moreprofessional and mom living in NYC. I worked with Jenny during the summer, while 6 months pregnant and needed to refresh my wardrobe with work & weekend wear that could grow with my belly. Not only was jenny able to source me the best capsule wardrobe, but she did it effeciently, thoughtfully, and nailed the maternity component without stocking my closet full of 1x use maternity clothes. Jenny goes above and beyond other stylists I have worked with. This ranges from having all the clothes beautifully packaged and steamed for try on to showing up with a variety of options and thoughtfulness behind the options. I walked away with a 50% hit ratio from Jenny's suggestions and now waking up and getting dressed everyday is a joy and not a chore. I feel put together, fashionable without being too trendy, comfortable, and a true version of myself. Jenny sources pieces across the price spectrum and does not push items onto her clients -- she is the first to say "oh. you have something similar, let's skip this" or she is also the one to say "this is how you style of work, the weekend, and date night " all with the same pieces. This is one of the best investments I have made in myself in a long time. It saved me hours upon hours of trying to shop online and returning items that didn't fit and it has shaved off time in the morning for me while getting ready. I cannot recommend Jenny enough -- it's such a wonderful investment and I cannot wait to work with. her again!

I consider myself to be a pretty good dresser but too often I buy something for the wrong reason and never wear it. Or I can't figure out what to wear between working out a dressing up. It was a splurge and a treat to hire a stylist but I'm very glad I did. I had her start by helping me edit my wardrobe. In the process she used her very light touch to rid me of things that were no longer in style and began teaching me what worked best for my lifestyle and body type. I feel like I got so much out of just this first appointment. The information she left me with has already influenced my shopping choices. If you're in the market for a stylist, Jenny's a great choice.

If you're debating whether Next Level Wardrobe is worth the money, here's the honest answer: it's a…read moreserious investment, and it's also the best money I've ever spent on myself. I want to be upfront for anyone comparing options: this is a real commitment, not a one-off shopping spree, and it's not for someone looking for a quick fix. If you're expecting a single "glam day" or a stylist who treats you like a mood board, this isn't that. What you get instead is a structured, ongoing system built specifically around your actual life: your job, your body, your budget, your existing pieces. This is not a generic capsule wardrobe or someone else's aesthetic imposed on you. I looked at other options first. Local independent stylists in my area were selling vibes, not a system. "This looks good" with no explanation of why, no philosophy behind the picks, no plan for how I'd keep dressing myself once their program ended. Big-box personal shopping services felt like the opposite problem: fast, generic, and clearly optimized for volume over actually understanding a person. NLW was the only option that treated this as building something that would hold up long-term, not just filling a closet. That's what the price reflects. It's not a tier of hand-holding, but the actual depth of the work: full closet audits, an outfit-formula system custom built from scratch around my real life, ongoing troubleshooting for months, not a single session and a shopping list. Concretely: Cassandra and Lucia built me an entire outfit-formula system. I walked away with repeatable combinations across dress codes, from casual through formal, using a small rotation of shoes and layering pieces that stretch much further than the piece count suggests. Every session was focused with real outcomes, not an editorial "look at what we bought", with identifying what doesn't work or why we were adding something new. That discipline is the difference between this and a big-box personal shopper. Nothing was recommended without a functional reason behind it. I also want to call out Lucia specifically, because a huge amount of what made this work day-to-day was her. She was genuinely available around the clock and weekends over text - not just for styling questions, but for the small, unglamorous stuff that actually determines whether a wardrobe holds up. She taught me how to clean a hand-wash-only piece, how to store something so it doesn't lose its shape, and how to troubleshoot why an outfit looked slightly off to my untrained eye. That kind of responsiveness isn't a line item you can put a price on, but it's a huge part of why NLW's system works instead of falling apart when I ask a question. I can get dressed faster than my husband these days, and literally everything in my closet actually gets worn. No orphaned pieces, no impulse buys I regret, no "I'll use this someday", no "I'll wear it once I weigh X lbs". If you can commit to the process and the cost, the return is a wardrobe that actually works for many years, not just one that looks good in a single outfit photo or lasts for a couple trendy seasons.

This was a fantastic experience…read more When I was younger I used to love clothes--I mean searched-for-the-clothes-boxes-instead-of the-toy-boxes-under-the-Christmas-tree loved clothes as early as age 3 (there is video evidence). Then life, graduate school and years of post graduate school in a sector that doesn't value style happened. I had ended up with a packed closet that was more of a time capsule storage unit than functional space, leaving me with mountains of things and still feeling like I had nothing to wear because the vast majority of it fit but was 10 years old. I had tried to clean it out 2 dozen times and just gotten overwhelmed and put everything back in. I also never felt like I could justify getting rid of anything because "there was nothing wrong with it" or buying anything because "I had a closet full of clothes" and therefore didn't need it. Cassandra and Lucia totally got where I was coming from and went through an extensive closet edit with me. They were very patient with my overwhelm and numerous questions; I really wanted to learn the why behind things and understand how things were coming together and what I really needed in my wardrobe to nail the style we put together with my Pinterest board. A lot of what I like is on chic end, but that feeling needed to be translated to everyday and wear-to-clinic attire, and I think we got there. The process for me ended up being more than just a style alignment; it was also a mindset shift with Lucia as my style therapist. I was able to move away from a utility only mindset--that I needed to keep things that were no longer aligned with my current phase of life and not buy anything I didn't need--and reframe to seeing my wardrobe as an investment in myself and that having a higher quality item that you truly love and that brings you joy is reason in itself. Getting dressed is an essential part of the day, and it's now a bright spot in mine. I enjoy walking into my closet. When I packed for my last trip, there was no panic shopping involved. I felt put together every day for 3 weeks and only had a carry-on. 3 people in Greece told me I did not look American because I was dressed elegantly. I enjoy the wardrobe results, but the learning behind everything and changed perspective is the real prize. If you want to makeover your mindset and your closet, go for it!

Before meeting her, shopping felt boring -- racks of endless options, second-guessing every choice, and walking away uninspired. But from our very first session, Mona turned the experience into something thrilling, creative, and deeply personal. I want to really emphasize on aspects of her personality in this review. She has been all devoted to teaching me and finding my interests genuinely, and I never felt it was a job for her. She followed up on getting feedback from me well beyond what she was supposed to, to make sure I am satisfied with the experience and happy with the products I bought. She is so humble, personable, and passionate about what she does and I really love that in a person. I never thought I'd say this, but shopping has actually become exciting -- an adventure into new possibilities rather than a chore. People constantly ask me where I shop or who styles me -- and the secret is Mona. If you're ready to feel like the most confident, stylish version of yourself, look no further.

I paid for the image consulting package and within minutes of meeting her she was able to help me diagnose why certain articles of clothing I owned never felt "right" for me and give actionable insights for improving my wardrobe. She followed that up with an incredibly thorough document full of sample looks, lists of brands and stores to shop at, and helpful tips and tricks. Since my initial consult, she has been incredibly responsive to answering questions and providing feedback on specific items of clothing, on looks, and on any follow-up questions that I've had. I already feel so much more confident when I buy clothes and in putting together outfits that feel flattering for me. Whether you're looking to refresh your brand or just starting on your style journey, I can't recommend working with Mona highly enough.

I found myself panicked and buying so many items of clothing that I didn't really love or want, but felt that I "needed" in the moment. It was a waste of energy, time, and money. So, I decided to get some help and I found Allie via Yelp. She had amazing reviews, so I reached out, and I am so happy I did! Allie was super responsive, supportive, and helped me navigate the different packages she had available on her website. I ended up selecting the "Building a Foundation" package and it was exactly what I needed. Allie listened to my clothing issues, had me create a style board on Pinterest to get an idea of what I liked or disliked, and hung out with me to review my closet and help create outfits, and shopped with me. She pushed me out of my comfort level, but took feedback and incorporated that into her recommendations if it was something I just knew I wouldn't want to wear. It was like hanging out with your best girlfriend, but she is super attentive, knows all the right shops and people, and gives direct feedback.
