    I've worked with a few personal stylists over the years and Margo is the best. She first came to my…read morehouse to do a closet edit. This felt like the equivalent of someone helping you part with sentimental items that are creating clutter. Why wear things that don't fit well, you're keeping for that one time when..., or are not classics and are actually dated? When I met her for shopping, I made some quick judgements about some of the items she picked out, thinking, "I'll never wear that." But much to my surprise, those items looked great. Margo nicely pushed me out of my comfort zone/rut of wearing the same colors (hello navy and black!) or buying 3 of one item. She also taught me why some things were unflattering and how to pick things that would be, how to know which jeans would fit best, and how to accessorize. Everything was in my price range and each time we met, almost everything she picked out were items I bought. Margo is so worth your time and money!

    Tired of a wardrobe that made me look like I was in college (worn-out hoodies, jeans, chuck…read moretaylors) when I was moving into a more professional role at work, I came across Margo's info thanks to fellow yelpers and got in touch with her. It was time and money well spent. I went from wearing about 20% of my clothing 100% of the time (and not feeling so great in it) to 100% of my clothing 100% of the time, and feeling much more confident about how i was presenting myself. Margo was really fun to work with, and although I wasn't sure how it would be shopping with a stylist, it felt like shopping with a girlfriend who was honest, helpful, and fun to be around. I was on a budget and didn't purchase everything that we found, but she did help me find plenty of great pieces and I got an idea of what sorts of brands and styles were a good fit for me. We met three times over the course of a month or two - once for the closet audit, once for the shopping trip, and once for her to put together some outfits with what we bought (she encouraged me to take photos of the outfits, and it's been a lifesaver). She was in touch via email between and after these sessions, checking on how things were going, sending helpful links, answering my silly questions, etc. Oh, and do you get those annoying little holes in the belly area of your thin shirts? She's got a solution for that . . .

    Let me chime in with yet another (well deserved) five star review for Fern Date and Ladan. My…read morethoughts are similar to many others here - frustration with the online dating process, love-hate relationship with the apps, not finding quality men, and having a bit of occasional writers block when I did actually connect with someone. So when I decide I am actually going to do something, I tend to move quickly. I setup a phone consult (right from the Yelp app) and talked to Ladan the very next day. We then had a face to face meeting three days later, and another within the next week. She was able to setup a photo shoot for the very next day to supplement some of my existing photos with additional casual photos (shout out to photographer @emilyjoangreene - she was awesome too!). And voila - we went live 24 hours later. Fast forward to 8 days later (today) and I have already received more "likes" than I had in all my previous online dating adventures. Three upcoming dates confirmed, and this is FUN, not frustrating anymore. Ladan moves at your pace, helps you showcase the best of YOU and doesn't try to make you into something that you're not, is accessible for those silly follow up questions, and basically just downright amazing. She loves what she does and it shows.

    I think the best way to sum up Fern Date is that Fern Date celebrates you. From the very first…read moremoment I talked to McKenzie on the phone asking about Fern Date, I felt very hopeful. I signed up for all the services Fern Date had to offer. All my interactions with McKenzie were very warm. She was very helpful in helping me think of how I wanted to portray myself. She made me laugh during the photoshoot and brought out my playful self. Ladan was great with creating my profile to attract the right men. I posted my online dating profile today and already have likes that I think I will like to pursue. I would highly recommend Fern Date if you need help with online dating, or if you are just at a point where being celebrated will do your soul wonders.

    Truly concierge service. Literally, working with Coor Cohen and associates is having a "life…read moreconcierge" for anything and everything you could need. Anytime. Expectations ALWAYS exceeded with respect to timeliness of response, quality of work delivered, exquisite attention to detail, discretion, and most importantly the professionalism and just plain friendliness that my service requests are met with. As an Emergency Physician, my schedule is infinitely random (difficult to schedule around in an "every other Tuesday" or "every Saturday morning" kind of way) and during my workday/night/early hours of the morning the work is a labor of love but also all-consuming and often leaves me completely spent when I get home. Point being, short on time and energy when not at work, and I wanted to spend that time and energy with my wife and enjoying life, not navigating tele prompt menus over the telephone to arrange appointments and services or completing forms and filing paperwork. Even more, I needed to "supercharge" my day-to-day efficiency. (Ever find yourself wanting for a second 'you' to slash through red tape and tasks? This is your answer. Cloning is not yet all hammered-out and perfected, plus all the ethical issues... get a Personal Assistant!) It was actually my wife who found Badass PA of Portland and suggested I contract their service to, among other things but importantly, help me schedule time together, help me to plan surprise dates, getaways, adventures, etc. and to do this, helping me to manage my non-work schedule such as booking appointments, assisting with clerical tasks, running errands, finding other contractors to complete work at home... Coor's protection of and advocacy on behalf of her clients in dealing with difficult people is second to none. I plan to send her in to the dealership as my "negotiator" next time I need to buy a car- that good. Coor also scheduled an appointment WITH my wife to get to know who she is, what she likes, her dietary preferences and needs, dress size, clothing and jewelry sizes, fashion, restaurant, hotel preferences, preferred local boutiques, you name it- just so that she can help me behind the scenes in restoring myself as the romantic man-of-the-world she fell in love with and married! Badass PA of Portland is EXQUISITELY sensitive of privacy and protecting your identity, financial information, personal information, and will NEVER require any information from you that you are not comfortable sharing. That said, over time after earning my COMPLETE trust, I have entrusted them with pretty much all of the personal information I would not entrust to anyone other than my family, my bank, my realtor, my insurance company etc. and couldn't feel more resolutely confident in them. Most importantly, you might be thinking "that sounds like something that must be nice, if you're rich!" SO NOT TRUE! Check out their membership prices and rates. Buy yourself a basic membership with even 2 HOURS of service/month and you won't believe how much they can do for you in 2 hours total service time that month, most of which can be done remotely. CALL BADASS PA TODAY. You're obviously interested if you read this, and they are your new secret weapon. Love this service!

    We hired BAPA of Portland to help sort through and pack up our 2br apartment, on short notice…read more They were efficient and thoughtful (cataloging the boxes they packed), making suggestions when needed (most of which I followed!), and listening and checking in with our preferences and expectations. Coor and Nic cared a lot about doing a job they could be proud of *and* one that would meet our expectations. Coor not only oversaw and handled details beautifully, but also masterminded the project and made sure that the big picture went smoothly. It was a 2 day project, and we really appreciated that they took the time to tidy up the space at the end of each shift. I'd use their services again and recommend them to my colleagues (we're two busy professionals, and having this work "made easy" is a relief). Thanks, Coor and Team!
