What does a Stylist do? Part 2: Goals & Vision

Throughout the styling process it’s important to establish what are your goals in working with me and what your vision is for your style. Working with a stylist isn’t just having someone tell you what to wear, it’s creating a partnership to realize your style goals for your current lifestyle. This is different for everyone, so it’s imperative to get on the same page from the beginning.

When I start with a new client I have them fill out a new client questionnaire which asks a range of questions from what is a typical day in your life, to who is your celebrity style crush, to what does success in working with a stylist look like for you. This helps give me an idea of your lifestyle, style goals, and how we can maximize our time together. 

Next, I create a shared pinterest board where I encourage new clients to post all their style inspo. Everything including outfits, colors, interiors, flowers, cities, anything that inspires their style. As we work together I will also add to this board so you can also come back when you’re in a rut and be inspired.

Once we have goals and vision established and the closet has been fully cleansed, it’s time to start shopping!
