I was a little nervous/hesitant going into this, I've never really paid too much attention to my…read moreclothes. But my wife, who was a former client of Andrea's raved about the service and the results. And so I decided to give it a go, and I'm really glad that I did. Andrea is a joy to work with and a very cool human being. She is an expert at assessing the person, understanding their tastes and needs, and walking through the process. Great communication, too. The result is that I have a wardrobe that I really like (it feels like "me"), my wife thinks I look great and I'm getting complements at work. I also understand which colors are my friends and which to avoid. And for the first time, I would dare to say that I have adopted a sense of style. Only took 50 years :) Andrea is a pro, and what she offers is a true life upgrade. Do yourself a favor and give her a call. And this would be an extremely cool gift for your spouse or a friend in need of a little bit of "help". Thanks, Andrea. You're awesome.

I can't say enough good things about my experience. I've always been a very pragmatic, logical,…read moretechnical person, so my wardrobe was mostly jeans and tshirts. With Laurel's help I was finally able to feel comfortable and confident with my wardrobe. This has been a game changer. And I never once felt judged or rushed.

Laurel is worth every penny. I'm a guy who loathes clothes shopping, and this was not only…read morepainless, but fun! Laurel's system is brilliant, from the initial questionnaire to the closet consultation, and through the shopping session itself. I felt like she really understood my likes and dislikes, had a real sense of how much I wanted to change my look and what I wanted to retain. The only hard part was choosing from all the great stuff she picked out for me. I'm psyched to start wearing my new clothes - which is a feely I've rarely had before! I can't recommend Laurel highly enough. Thank you Laurel!!

I called Raquel because I wasn't happy with my wardrobe. No matter how much money I spent on…read moreclothes and shoes I never seemed to have the right thing to wear. Raquel taught me so many things in just a few hours of time together. It was an amazing value and I'm saving money already by not spending it on the wrong colors, shapes, styles, sizes and I think about new items in a different way - how much I love it and how many different items it goes with in my existing wardrobe. I see which items have the most value and which are expensive mistakes that wouldn't be versatile enough to wear with other items in my closet. How did it work? The approach she used in my case was to review colors (by my request) and then Style, Shop, Style. She put together a bunch of outfits from head to toe with accessories and shoes out of my closet, before I bought anything. The next step was to go shopping - she made a shopping list based on wardrobe gaps that were preventing me from making more outfits. Then we met again to style the new items. She made multiple outfits from each of the items. We set aside some items for hemming and tailoring - which I've already gotten done. I learned how to put outfits together in a batch so I don't agonize over outfit making in the mornings when I haven't had coffee. And she sent me photos of almost 40 outfits she put together in the two styling sessions. I used those photos to pack for a 10 day business trip. I picked out which outfits I wanted for different situations on the trip, and packed all the items including jewelry and shoes and I knew what to put together each day. It was so easy! I think the best part was going from not having an outfit at all to being so put together that I get compliments every day. While I feel much more self-sufficient, I still have some changes to make in my style. I want to take this to another level and I'll be working with Raquel again to achieve that very soon.

Like some of the reviewers here, I'm not naturally fashionable, so I thought I might have been a…read morelost cause for Raquel. Not so! The assignments she had me complete got me thinking critically (as in, analytically, not in a mean spirit...) about what I wear, well before our consultation. When she tackled my closet, I was surprised by the versatility of my existing, and fairly minimal, wardrobe. And while I was a little anxious about someone coming over and going through my clothes and style with a fine-tooth comb (kind of a personal thing!), Raquel was non-judgmental and enthusiastic; it was like having a friend over. Glad I did this, it was a great investment!

A friend of mine always looks snazzy and put together. I asked her what her secret is and she said…read morewith a smile, "Thea Wood." I recently worked with Thea and she has truly changed my life. I walked into our consultation needing guidance on how to put together a polished and approachable look. She delivered that and more. Her demeanor is warm, friendly, down to earth and fun. During our meetings I felt like I was chatting with a friend :) She is compassionate and understanding of the struggles I felt about my body. Society isn't kind to women with curves and as someone who struggled with eating disorders her whole life, I had been beating myself up about my appearance. She approached those concerns from a loving place and has helped me look at clothing sizes in a more healthy way. In an industry that typically shames women for their "inadequacies" Thea helped me feel good myself. I love my color wheel and it's already proven so helpful during my most recent shopping trips. The color analysis alone is a smart investment in yourself because it enables you to successful select clothes/accessories that truly compliment you and get you the most bang for your buck overall. I also did the body consultation and learned so much about what types of clothing works best on my figure. She created a lovely book for me to use as a guide and I adore it! I really enjoyed working with Thea and absolutely recommend her to anyone looking to give themselves a gift. We get help for all other areas of our life ( ie:personal trainers, nutritionists, hairstylists, and doctors)...why not get help in creating your desired look? Do yourself a favor and reach out to her :) Thank you, Thea!

I've gone on and on about Thea since I first started working with her, so I figured I'd get on Yelp…read moreand make it official. I always like to have a little self-improvement project going on in my life, and since I've just moved to Austin, and a lot of things are correspondingly very new for me, I thought it would be a great time to focus on the way I present myself, and project my personality, to others. Consulting Thea was, for me, the right choice. Hands down. The Service: Thea has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She reaches you with a seamles blend of professionalism and warmth. Her passion for style is visibly apparent, and her enthusiasm for helping you look your best is contagious. The Product: I love my color fan, and I take it everywhere with me - it's beautiful, first of all. On the more practical end, it's easy to use, and Thea has helped me to understand why certain colors work better than others, and how to use them, and what to look for. My style guide is detailed, personalized, and easy to use. Finally, the clothes I've bought with Thea..... well, I'm beyond happy with this. She takes the time to get to know you - your personality, your lifestyle, your goals - and she uses this to customize your shopping experience. In the clothes I picked with Thea, I don't feel like someone else dressed me. I feel like someone else guided me toward what I really wanted and needed, but never would have found on my own. The Bonus: I've learned so much about myself in the process.... so, if you really embrace the process and open up to it, you're really working on yourself both inside and out. Best of luck! Thanks, Thea!

Not only is Sydney friendly and supportive ( and affordable), but she knows her stuff. Super glad I made this investment in myself and my wardrobe- and the comments I'm getting on the new clothes every day at the office are the icing on the cake. Highly recommend for anyone who needs a wardrobe or style refresh!

I had such a wonderful experience here! From the moment I stepped in my stylist Sarai made me feel…read moreso welcome and comfortable- I had had a not so good experience the day before and I was very nervous and apprehensive which I did explain to her but honestly probably didn't need to because I think she would have done the exact same thing as that's just how she works. She pulled dresses that she felt I'd like but also pulled ones I specifically wanted to try and had previously sent. she walked around with me looking at different ones and let me take my time browsing with my mom. I was stressed about finding anything I half way liked and ultimately found two I was In love with - She understood I'd need to sit with my thoughts and do some comparison and didn't pressure me or try to force me to make a quick decision. I was able to come back the next day after making my final decision- and got to have the yes moment with my mom and friends. I cannot thank Sarai enough for turning around my entire dress shopping experience and giving me the most special moment with my mom there. I cannot wait for my dress!!

Let me preface by saying I paid $150 for the VIP experience just so I could bring my mom, MIL, and…read more3 bridesmaids. You need to pay that much to bring up to 5 people. I thought since it was my first time trying on dresses, and I knew I wouldn't be buying today, sure, I can pay them for their time and service. But seems like they knew I wouldn't be buying, since they treated me like crap. And if I had found a dress, I was definitely ready to buy that day. Since I bought the VIP experience, we had the center area for me to walk out and look in the mirror. There was a bench for everyone to sit on. In the corner there was a cart full of snacks, drinks, and a whole bottle of champagne. At no point did any of the staff indicate we could touch the cart. So really, the only thing I got out of paying $150 was some chocolates I told one of my bridesmaid to take. It felt like stealing since, again, none of the stylists mentioned it. Even worse, exactly when my appointment time ended, another stylist took the cart away without saying a word. The bottle of champagne that came with this $150 appointment - poof, gone. Felt like a "please get out" kind of gesture. Additionally, I picked Melange since they're the only store in Austin to participate in the national bridal sale. They never mentioned the sales rack. They really never mentioned... well, anything! We had to ask how the store was organized just so we could know where to look for what. My stylist felt like she couldn't care less about being there. Sure, she waited outside my dressing room in cases I needed help and helped me into the dresses when needed. And I really tried to have a fun time, making jokes and being lighthearted, but she wasn't giving any of the energy back. I'm not sure if she was having a bad day, and I'm sorry if she was, but it might as well have been a Target fitting room. Sure, the dresses are pretty and I think the other 2 brides I saw trying on at the same time found their dress. So, I guess their dress selection isn't bad. But it wasn't my cup of tea nor was the service top-notch. If you're a good salesperson and put in that work and give good customer service (I've worked in customer service/retail before, I know how hard it is), I try my hardest to buy from you. But we just didn't agree.
