I was having trouble figuring out how to wear some things and happened to see her IG post where she did multiple outfit combinations with a pair of shorts. She said that sometimes all you need is a fresh perspective and someone who will encourage you to try new things so I reached out! It never would have occurred to me to wear these pieces together but I felt great in everything she put together and I never felt like I had to sacrifice my personal style or comfort to pull the looks off. Looking forward to my next styling session with her.

I appear to be the first male to write a review for Jill, and that's a real shame! As much as we…read morehate to admit it, she could probably help us even more. I met Jill prior to an important job interview at a tech company in San Francisco. Coming from a different part of the country as well as a different industry I knew that my traditional interview apparel would not work in this environment. I contacted Jill and gave her all the particulars as well as my size, build, and a few pictures. She researched the company and it's culture to ensure I'd be dressed to impress. We met at a local retailer where I found Jill had already prepared a dressing room with a selection of items. I loved everything she picked, but we were quickly able to narrow things down for what would work best. Her expertise saved me many hours of shopping, and her attention to detail ensured that I'd make the very best first impression during the interview. The company has a very specific logo color that's extremely important to them. Jill managed to incorporate the company's color into fine details of the shirt! And forget the painful shopping process of either trying to find an associate for assistance or trying to get them to leave you alone while you shop. Jill had several associates at her service which greatly sped up the process. Guys, forget rushing through your shopping and making selections you regret. Call Jill and have her streamline the process for you while ensuring you look your very best.

Shea's expertise and passion shine through in every session. During the closet edit, she took the…read moretime to understand my goals and helped me strategize to build a beautiful, versatile wardrobe for work, travel, and weekends. Afterward, Shea created a detailed list of what was missing from my closet and what I needed to complete my wardrobe. We then scheduled a shopping trip that was nothing short of amazing. She chose stores perfectly suited to my style and budget, selecting dresses, pants, blouses, shoes, and accessories to create fantastic, polished looks. She even provided styled photos of the outfits for reference, and I was able to wear one of the looks that very evening to a special party! I went home with eight gorgeous outfits and a new understanding of what works for my frame and how to mix and match with the pieces I already own. Every time I wore these looks to business meetings or conferences, I received the compliments Shea had promised I would! This experience was a transformative investment worth every penny. Shea not only curated an incredible wardrobe but also taught me how to shop for colors that complement my skin tone, accessorize effectively, and master the art of layering. With her incredible sense of style, I look forward to working with her again this fall and gifting my daughter a session with Shea this holiday season! Her professionalism, knowledge, and dedication to her clients are unparalleled, and her customer service goes above and beyond. She really is amazing and I feel so happy in my new 'fits!

It's difficult being in my early 30s, single, working in tech and having a lackluster wardrobe. My…read morework outfits have to look professional without looking "corporate". I also need age appropriate, feminine looks for dates. Needless to say, I wasn't pulling it off shopping on my own and it was hurting my confidence. My closet was embarrassing small due to the fact that I didn't enjoy shopping and I had a hard time finding clothing that fit (I'm 6 ft tall). I heard about StyleKouncil at an event and read the yelp reviews ... eventually I decided to give it a try. Working with Kat was absolutely fantastic from start to finish and I wish I had done it sooner. We began with a survey and a review of my closet. I didn't know what my style was, but Kat seemed to ask all the right questions until we landed on "classic and feminine, but with an edge". She showed me how to work with what I already had and made a list of pieces I needed. A few weeks later we went shopping. Kat went ahead of time to pick out pieces in the morning and I went in the afternoon. I usually go to stores and feel overwhelmed by too many options. It was so great to simply walk into a dressing room full of clothes that fit and matched my personality. Kat was also great at helping me feel relaxed at the beginning (excitement & nerves got the best of me for a second) and at gently nudging me out of comfort zone (I didn't own a single skirt until I went shopping with Kat and now I can't wait to buy more!). I told Kat that quality was important, but I also liked getting a good deal as well. Luckily, she knew where all the deals were and, excluding two investment pieces (that I absolutely love!!!), everything was on sale. I came home with 18 new pieces and was well within my budget. We didn't find every piece on my list, but I'll be shopping with Kat again when the spring/summer collections arrive. It's so much less stress in my life to know I'll go shopping 2-3 times a year for a few hours and walk away with great looks. It's a great confidence booster for my professional and dating life. I cannot wait to go to work on Monday and for my next date. I cannot recommend Kat and StyleKouncil highly enough!

Kat was a life-saver. I've been in school more or less continuously since 2007 and my work attire…read moreduring that period consisted of scrubs. So suffice it to say that my business attire was next to non-existent. I was nearing the end of my graduate degree and preparing for several interviews when I realized I needed to rectify this. I located Style Kouncil online and described my predicament to Kat. The particulars included a recent weight gain (subsequent to a new baby while in my 40s while in grad school) as well as a total lack of wardrobe basics. This was further complicated by my need to have several interview outfits within a week's time. Though I was skeptical of the need for a closet inventory due to a lack of clothing and my recent purging (I'd already Kon-Mari'd the closet) this part of the process proved necessary. It allowed Kat to see first hand what I loved/hated about my current wardrobe as well as make a very detailed list of basics that I needed to acquire. As I was unemployed, Kat developed a lovely billing plan that I could afford. She really hustled to fit me into her wicked busy schedule and get me into some clothes (not easy to find great clothing options for size 14-16 but she did it with style). I met her at the Bloomingdales dressing room and she already had racks of outfits waiting for me to try. I felt like a million bucks. We also hit two other stores in the mall to fill in some needed basics/shoes; I was all set for my interview. The first several interviews I went to resulted in job offers. I'm certain the confidence I had as a result of my wardrobe greatly contributed. What's more, I took what I learned from the process with Kat in terms of brands and silhouettes that look good on my new figure and used it to fill out my wardrobe all on my own (see included pics). I can't emphasize enough how fantastic Kat is. She really keyed directly into what my needs were and I always felt my best interests were at the forefront of her mind at all times---really--right down to her making certain I was not being taken advantage of by a clerk's sales pitch. Do yourself a favor and take advantage of this service. I am 100% going to have her work with me again as soon as I accept one of my job offers and am getting that cash money!

She is down to earth yet high fashion, kind yet frank, Marie-Kondo meets Tim Gunn. Gigi visited me and my closet in Santa Cruz. She helped me purge and repurpose clothing. She got me excited about fashion, my fashion. She taught me about my body shape and explained things that I needed to look for to accentuate my body (eg. v-neck tee shirts for my broad shoulders, high waisted jeans for my long torso). She also helped me hone in on my style by subtly pointing out Boho maybe wasn't the best direction for me. At the end of our session, I had a clear idea of my fashion sense and what to look for when I shop which was not much. I have things hung in my closet in such a way that I will know at the end of 6 months whether I wore it or not and if I didn't, buh bye. I feel lighter, fashionable and more conscious. Gigi also helped me with my jewelry. She showed me tricks to add charms and layer pieces. I got excited about wearing my jewelry again and I might have even been more excited about getting rid of pieces. Finally, Gigi helped me pack for a vacation. She determined my essentials, color palette and style. She taught me how to mix and match things in ways I never knew possible. It was amazing and I couldn't wait to wear everything I brought in my carry on for my trip. Gigi is a fantastic stylist. Her sense of style, her accute ability to find your personal style, her innate sense of finding fashion for your body type, and her pulse on trends make her a phenomenal personal stylist. I consider myself beyond lucky to have found her. I can't thank her enough for the daily compliments I get about my style. I owe my image to her and I love it!

I was really dissatisfied with my wardrobe- lots of pieces and options, but I didn't have any…read morelooks. I hated my wardrobe so much I would wear the same few things. And then on top of that, my body changed during quarantine and those clothes didn't look good anymore. Desperate, I looked to style subscription boxes, but the amount of details I didn't know about myself and my tastes overwhelmed me. I wanted to talk to a person- someone knowledgeable, who could take a look at me and see what I could no longer see. That's when I found Brandi at Trés Chic. When I say she was dedicated to helping me- she read my email and decided to fit me in even when booked, just so we could talk. The process of having someone question you about your likes, dislikes, fashion successes and failures- its intimate and very personal, but Brandi made me feel comfortable enough to pour out my heart. We did a consultation in which I showed her outfits I owned that I liked, that I wished worked but didn't, and things I absolutely hated. She took pictures of the things I loved so she could find items to pair with them. We went into my Pinterest board and I showed her looks I was inspired by but didn't know where to start. We discussed looks I could wear to work and seamlessly transition into after work attire, like for dinner or drinks. I wanted looks that would draw attention away from areas that I felt self conscious about and highlight my strengths. We set a budget (there is a minimum, so if you want 1-2 outfits, she might offer something different) and set and appointment for her to return with what she found for me. About three weeks later, Brandi brought five duffel bags worth of clothes to my home, and we had a four hour try on session. Brandi put together looks for me to try on- even some out of my comfort zone, things I would admire but chicken out on buying for myself. She pushed me to take some risks, but in no way was I pressured to keep anything that I wouldn't wear. She even brought accessories to pair with my wardrobe, including shoes and bags. We took photos of me in the looks so I would remember how to put them together By the end of the session I was tired, but SO EXCITED about my new wardrobe! She took back all the things I didn't want, and charged me only for the items I kept. We also did a wardrobe clean out, so Brandi helped me say goodbye to all the clothes that no longer served me. I kept a few items that had sentimental value, but most of my old wardrobe was rightfully tossed or set aside for donations. My confidence has returned! I get compliments every day about how cute I look- and I know it's true! I can get up and put together outfits quickly and and be assured that I look out together- because Brandi showed me how. I highly recommend Brandi for an experience that boosts confidence and encourages you to look your best for any occasion. I plan on using her again to help with some summertime looks. THANK YOU SO MUCH, BRANDI!
