Personal styling
Your personal style should support and express your truest self—who you are and who you aspire to be. We will help you discover and define what that is.
The MdS Personal Style Process
The MdS Personal Style Process includes three comprehensive phases that will help us connect you to your most authentic, powerful style. We honor the investment and vulnerability it takes to invite us into your views of self and style, and we strive to make the process transformative, fun, and safe.
Phase 1: Consultation + Style Discovery
Our most thorough and valuable part of the process. During this phase, we gather your inspirations, learn about your story and lifestyle, and develop your personalized Style Profile. We will teach you practical tools based on our discoveries so you can make confident choices with your style going forward. We host this phase in our studio, allowing you to enjoy a sense of intentional relaxation, respite, and care.We’ll use these findings to curate your personalized MdS Virtual Style Profile. Your Style Profile will be available on a password-protected client portal for you to continuously refer to and interact with, and includes your colors, body type, measurements, and shoppable links, all in one safe space.
Phase 2: Wardrobe Edit
During the Wardrobe Edit, we ensure that your current wardrobe reflects your style discovered in Phase 1. We assess what you currently own and how it can work with your personal style, creating outfit suggestions along the way.
We will also identify items in your wardrobe to eliminate, as well as any gaps to be filled. We’ll discuss an appropriate clothing budget, and help create a shopping list as you walk forward into your new image.
All notes, photos of outfit pairings, and shoppable links of suggested wardrobe additions will be uploaded to your Style Profile for you to refer back to.
Phase 3: Shop + Fit
With every detail of your profile and personal style discoveries at hand, we shop for the most empowering clothing pieces for your life and your style. We’ll bring the clothing to our studio so you can try them on and begin to incorporate them into your wardrobe. Should any of the new pieces require alterations, we will schedule those fittings until it’s just right. We will also complete any returns or exchanges.
Phase 4
Now that your closet is full of items you love and that fit into your life, we schedule another home visit so we can see your progress and style outfits using both your new and existing items. If needed, we’ll take photos of the outfits we create that you can reference at any time in your password-protected Style Profile. To get you started, I’ll also set aside full-styled looks in your closet so that you have outfits to pull from for when you’re in a pinch.
+ Beyond
Bypass any future stress surrounding style choices. If you have questions going forward (choosing an outfit for a special event, purchasing a new wardrobe item, or pairing shoes and accessories to an outfit) please consider us a go-to resource for real-time help! Call, text, or email. We are here to cheer you on!
