I had never worked with a stylist before and I didn't know what to expect. I was hopeful that, at the very least, I would start dressing more like the woman I felt like on the inside. In reality, I got much more out of the experience. Not only did I find my sense of style and build a unique wardrobe showcasing who I am today, but I also learned a lot about myself and the fashion industry more broadly. Specifically with an eye towards sustainability. Shopping can feel overwhelming and stressful, but Katie made the experience fun and empowering. After working with her, I feel more confident picking an outfit and enjoy shopping my closet for new looks. I plan on working with Katie for years to come for refreshes and special events. Thank you, thank you!

I loved working with Katie and look forward to another session in the future. I never thought I'd…read morebe someone who would need to hire a stylist. I have always loved fashion and clothes, so much so that I had a mountain of clothing. But I was starting to get overwhelmed with it all. I was in a very busy phase of life and I wanted to look good: modern and put-together but didn't have the perspective about what to let go of and what to update my wardrobe with. From the moment Katie arrived, she was warm, non-judgmental, and helpful. She literally dug into my wardrobe and helped me take a hard look at all of my items. She gently guided me to let go of what was no longer a good choice (out of style, not my color, not a good fit, etc.) and helped me put together new looks with what I already had. She also suggested new items to round out my wardrobe. This was incredibly helpful, because I wanted to spend my money on a few quality items and not get swept away by trendy pieces. She helped me pick out some classic slacks, flattering jeans, and a versatile skirt. Katie listens and adapts her approach to what you need. I recommend her services to anyone who feels they are in a fashion slump or just wants a refresh.

She loves doing what she does which made shopping with her a blast. She took me speed shopping around LA--she knows the city like the back of her hand. At one point we found a couple shirts that I really loved. She knew (somehow??) that they would be going on sale next week so she had me put them on hold. I came back one week later and shirt enough they were 50% off! One my favorite things about her was that I didn't feel like she was trying sell me things that I didn't need--she was on my team and genuinely cared about finding me the right items. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Elyse to any guy looking to freshen up his wardrobe or anyone who wants to experience LA in style.

Amy is amazing! What she did for me during a recent shopping consult was simply magic. I have a…read morespecial event coming up and knew with my work schedule I wouldn't have time to find the perfect dress. I also needed to replenish my work wardrobe. She not only helped me find some great work basics to replace some worn ones, but also helped me get some amazing dresses that I would have never considered had I gone shopping alone. These dresses were on fire! They made me look, dare I say it... sexy! She is generous with her input and feedback, while consistently on point with her style advice! ~Chickitta

I booked two sessions with Amy - a closet audit and a shopping trip…read more The Closet Audit: Amy helped me divide up my closet getting rid of items I should've parted with long ago either because they didn't compliment by body or because they were no longer in good shape. She was honest but toed what I'm sure can be an uncomfortable line with clients when they want an item but it just isn't for them. In the process she was able to start identifying gaps in my wardrobe (she was astonished I didn't have a single plain T-shirt - perfect for layering under fun accessories I can switch out every season or two) and spotting trends to understand my personal style (I flock to unique or embellished tops). I felt good wearing everything that was left in closet. It was a freeing experience. The Shopping Trip: Amy and I did a full day of shopping and in that time I was amazed at how quickly she found items that fit my body and matched my personal style. Instead of trying on a half dozen pants and ending the day exhausted I was exhilarated. Throughout the process we discussed multiple ideas for wearing each piece using clothes we had purchased or which were in my closet. She is able to shop in Amy and all budgets whether Target or Rodeo Drive. I love that she can help in pointing me when to splurge and when to buy a more affordable piece. I plan to continue working with Amy every couple years to keep my wardrobe up to date. The cost for a stylist is completely within reach and totally worth the investment.

Once we determined my season and contrast she offered a lot of advice on how to pair different colors together, wear jewelry, and to do makeup styles to create a harmonious look with my features. She even took a look at some pieces of clothing I brought from home and gave recommendations on how to style them, even if they were not in my exact color palette. I would 100% recommend anyone to work with Ioana and will be raving about her to my friends!

A friend of mine with immaculate style referred me to Emerald Scarab to upgrade my look. When I…read morefound out how much personal styling cost, I was like, "No way, I'd rather spend the money on clothes." My friend pushed and I finally went for it. Working with Kallah has been the bargain of my life, I'm serious -- in a very positive way, she has altered the way people perceive me; she has altered the way I feel about myself. She has saved me a bundle by hooking me up with the clothes that work best for the unique "look" she and I created for me - this, as opposed to my usual habit of blowing money on mis-matched styles and wasteful bargains, has been a huge money saver. Another money saver has been Kallah's rejuvenation of my existing wardrobe (the stuff that wasn't hideous.) She went through my closet and then set-out to find the best new clothes/accessories that would add style and energy to my current stuff. Shirts that I felt *blah* about now seem new and cool again when worn with Kallah's suggestions. This woman just knows how to make it work! Here's some of the process behind her magic: 1. She asks me to email ideas about the styles I like. 2. We meet in person and she interviews me. She asks more questions about my favorite styles, varying needs for clothing (work, social, etc.), music tastes and even about my favorite type of coffee (you'll discover why when you work with her :) 3. She shows me a bunch of photos from various fashion books and magazines that she has bookmarked based on my email; we begin creating a new personal look. 4. She pre-shops for me. 5. Three days later we hit the stores. Upon arrival at each store, clothes are already hanging in the dressing room -- I feel like a rock star. 99% of what Kallah has chosen is BADASS and within my budget. 99% is stuff I'd never find by myself. My only complaint is that didn't I do this years ago.

I usually don't write reviews (this is actually my first one), but I couldn't be happier with my…read moreentire experience with Kallah! I knew it was time to upgrade my look when my dad started giving me a hard time about my clothes. I ended up going with the closet audit (going through all my current clothes) and then a full day of shopping. I knew the closet audit was going to be rough as I still have clothes from over 15 years ago. Needless to say I ended up donating a majority of my clothes (2 boxes and 6 trash bags worth!). We actually had to hang on to some extra clothes just so I'd have something to wear until we had a chance to go shopping. The shopping experience was unlike anything I've ever experienced and I have no idea how I'm going to shop any other way from here on out. We went to some really cool stores that I would have never found on my own and each one we went to already had a bunch of clothes all ready for me to try on. I'd just jump right into the dressing room trying each one on. Perhaps the biggest surprise to me was that 90% of the clothes Kallah had set aside, fit perfectly. This is in contrast to my 10-15% success rate when shopping alone. I also noticed that Kallah had picked out a bunch of clothes that I would have passed by without giving a second thought when shopping alone. However, when actually trying these clothes on they looked great! I did this as a surprise to my wife and the look on her face when I met her for dinner in one of my new outfits was worth it alone. Her jaw literally dropped and she loved my new clothes so much that by the end of the night she had claimed my new jacket and wore it more that night than I did. If you decide to hire Kallah, I have a couple suggestions: 1. Don't try to do too much in one day - If you aren't big into shopping (like I'm not), make sure to split your shopping trips across multiple days. Kallah had offered to split my 8 hours into two 4 hour chunks and I found this to be perfect for me. 2. Trust Kallah - I had the mindset to trust Kallah and let her push my comfort zone a bit and I'm really glad I did. There were a couple of pieces that I wasn't so sure of when trying on, but that Kallah really liked. I ended up purchasing these and can't even count the number of compliments I've been getting. For anyone looking to upgrade their look, have their better half look at them a whole new way, or impress that chic at work, I highly recommend Kallah!

I without a doubt would recommend any friend, family member and colleague to work with Sean Ireton…read more It has been a personal challenge seeing my fashion from the outside. Sean laid out very clearly what we would be looking for, the clothes that would be a part of it, and even a new hairstyle to accompany the clothing. It was very helpful in making up for my lacking in perspective on fashion for myself. Overcoming my challenge was easy because all I had to do was trust in the process and results. The results were great, and the process was fun and a worthwhile experience! After working with Sean, I felt a significant boost to my self-image, and gained a greater sense of professionalism and focus in my overall goals and purpose. If anyone were on the fence about utilizing Nuinspiration's service, I'd say this: an investment in one's image is the key to changing what people see in you. It is in their first impression of you that one can adjust their reaction simply by being well dressed. With awareness and confidence, a person can navigate the gauntlet of society with ease. It won't change everything you are, but it can reveal better sides of you that, when focused with Sean's vision and guidance, can enable you to show that confidence and give yourself the drive to live up to it. Simply put, when you dress well, you feel good, you project positivity to the world, simply by being. My experience working with Sean has been very uplifting and has pushed me to grow a little further than I would have without his help. His succinct advice and follow through left no doubts in my mind that he has a vision and cared about an aspect of life as a man that very often goes without aid.

I didn't know how to get clothes that fit right and that could be fashionable and versatile. It was very frustrating! Because of it, I wasted a lot of money on clothes that I didn't love, or that ended up not fitting well. After Sean's help, not only did I get clothes that fit me amazingly well, but I also got some great advice from him on what would look good, and how to wear it to match and enhance my brand as a marketing entrepreneur. If you're trying to consider whether you need Nuinspiration's help and price is the hesitation: How much do you spend on your car every year? Your house? Going out for drinks? If you spend a fraction of that investing in yourself and your brand, it'll be well worth it; it has been for me.

She also helped me ditch items that I really needed to let go of, or that I did not realize were just not stylish. She is authentic when it comes to telling you what needs to go, and I loved that. She then told me some staple and essential items that were missing from my closet, and has been helping me shop for these items (within my budget). I feel like my perception of style has already improved - and it's only beginning. To top it all off, she is so sweet and so fun to work with - I want to bring her over again and again!
