read moreOn the Power of Vision…
On the Power of Vision So….woke up this morning just so flat out grateful to have had a personal vision of success in 2014. Why? Because this year has been a rough one, a fantastic one in many ways – but rough just the same! To set the stage, let’s just say that in January alone I experienced about 7 hearty punches to the gut (that’s extraordinarily unusual) which spanned across all the circles of life……That was just January! Nonetheless, I’m keeping my eye on the prize and am living out my...

read moreNordstrom Price Matching
What fun to wake up to such great news…..Good on you Nordstrom! This is from a client I’ve partnered with since 2004, who did *not* want to shop in the dreaded December, but needed some professional wardrobe replacements…and wanted the skinny jean look. We quickly shopped about 2 hours & a handful of stores at The Square yesterday: “Wow. I am exhausted. Don’t know how you do it. …Also Nordies is price matching or something. The Theory pants were 205 instead of 275. Felt like I got a lot for the...

read moreA Message of Hope: The Power of Story
Are you in need of a good word? Was wiped out by an unexpected conversation of timely encouragement yesterday. The bottom line? Modern day miracles that come in many forms continue to happen, and yesterday one came in the shape of a divinely orchestrated conversation. I believe we just need to show up, be open, and *listen* with our hearts….the rest always seems to unfold the way it’s supposed to. …This will be vague, but the encouragement is there for you if you need it. ….I was at a Seahawks party for a short bit yesterday,...
read moreToday’s Version of My Suit!
Making a quick exit, I took this quick pic…..but *really* wanted to share the uniqueness of this leather dress – so snapped another later on! …This is today’s version of a “suit” for a personal style and branding consult with an “understated & modern classic” Director of a merger and acquisition company. Fit is important to him and he wants a little something out of the box….So I dressed accordingly! P.S. Three things: 1. While this look was spot on for who he is, it...
read morePersonal Branding is How You Market, Visual Branding is How You Package!
So, what do you bring to the table? What differentiates you from others professionally or otherwise? Pausing to gain a conscious connection as to who you are in order to unearth your unique contribution in business is empowering because it sets a solid foundation for a new job or positions you well for promotion. Personal branding isn’t about faking it until you make it. It’s about taking more ownership of your authentic self, distinguishing yourself from others, and adding value. …Honored to be specifically working on...

Island Time! Together, we created a tropical vacation wardrobe -this is just the beginning of bright ‘n sunny beach cover ups in her best colors!

“I love that you are finding the courage to share your outfits with us, thank you <3” – Uniquely Savvy Client Truth or Dare? Truth: Those who know me intimately know I’m super uncomfortable w/selfies, don’t know how to take them and have only *recently* begun taking them for folks who have consistently asked and encouraged me to “show” more of my eclectic personal style … Truth is, it feels *vulnerable* and somewhat *too me focused* in a superficial kind of way….but I’m...

“I am interested in putting together a gift for my wife and am thinking of a style session of some type. This could potentially include shopping, but also a review of her style since, of course, getting the tools to implement this on her own is important for the long run. She is in no way clueless or style-less, but could use your expertise to more clearly define her style and brand for the future….Interested in ideas you have along those lines and look forward to putting something together with you. Sincerely,...
read moreWardrobe Update: From Sporty to Dapper!
This gent headed down from Toronto to update and refresh his work to weekend wardrobe. Since we’ve worked together since 2011, it was pretty seamless as we’d already identified his color palette, best styles for his build, and personal style based on his personal brand (though this evolves as he does). This time he enlisted me to pre-shop for him the day prior to his arrival. Then, what’s not to love about having an independent Seattle style consultant strategize the shopping day, truth tell and edit the final...
read moreLooking for a Party Dress? Try the Fit and Flare in Lace!
Jessica Chastain in Elie Saab black lace dress (InStyle) When I clicked on InStyle’s LOOK OF THE DAY, I immediately fell in love with this fit and flare lace dress! Then I thought, wait a minute…I just wore a “version” of this concept the other day and loved it! This style of dress is perfect as is, not much accessorizing necessary as you can see. That said, you can also “choose your mood” and accessorize it to taste. While I have lace dresses with the nude underlay, I opted for this...

Feeling: Both JAZZED for her possibilities & honored to be chosen! Before working w/a new client I try to discern needs and if we’re a good fit through a series of questions and conversation. In a brief questionnaire I asked, “What do you value when choosing a personal style or personal brand consultant? (Results, competence, creativity, customer service, accountability, etc.)” She replied, “I value most highly results, and then the process to getting them that is based on trust and kindness and truth. I’m looking to...

P.S. I was tailored-to-the-task, armored in leather. My kick ###? It was on. In good ways and in bad, research indicates what you wear impacts your mindset/behavior. …And who you surround yourself with? It matters too. Don’t let a 5’2” fashion girl with bouncy curls mislead you. Clearly, I’ve got what it takes….and I’m done messin’ around. Caught a man stealing boxes off my front porch…..Just had arrived home and remembered some packages were to arrive any day so I came up from the garage and went to the front...
