Frequently Asked Questions 

A Style Possibilities Call is a FREE 15-minute conversation where we’ll discuss your style goals and explore what you want to achieve by working with me. We’ll talk about what you envision when it comes to working with a stylist and determine if we’re the right fit for each other.

By the end of the call, you’ll know whether we’re a match and which styling package is best suited to your needs. It’s the perfect way to get a clear sense of your next steps in discovering your next-level style.

When you work with me specifically, my goal is the work alongside you to determine what personal style is right for YOU!  Working with me is always a 2-way conversation and while I WILL push you to step outside of your comfort zone, we will talk a LOT about what your vision for your future style is.  Many of our appointments will be done virtually.  Depending on YOU, some will be in-person, however everything can be done virtually just as successfully!  When you work with me inside of a longer-term styling package, you WILL close out your package with the end-result that we began our very first call planning for.  You have to be READY to make a change and you have to know that you are paying me to get you to your next-level style.  That will mean stepping outside of your comfort zone so you don't end up right back where you started.  Style is a choice.

I am a good listener and we will create a style that is developed based upon many questions I will ask and evaluations that we will complete together.  It's an extremely transformation process for women who go through it and it elevates how you feel from the inside-out.  It is truly a life-changing experience!

Getting dressed well is an art—and it’s one that many women struggle to master, especially with busy lives and endless to-do lists. You could spend hours researching outfit ideas online, trying to figure out what works for you. But why go through that hassle when a stylist can make the process simple, fun, and stress-free?

A stylist isn’t just about shopping for clothes; it’s about creating a wardrobe that works for you—one that aligns with your body, lifestyle, and goals. Imagine having someone who understands your style needs and is there to make getting dressed feel effortless. With a stylist by your side, your closet becomes a place of confidence, not stress.

Hiring a stylist is an investment in yourself, your time, and your confidence. It’s the ultimate gift to help you feel great every day—without the overwhelm.

I am here to coach and guide you every step of the way as you develop your style. I fully believe in the process and the tools I provide, and I am committed to helping you grow and evolve in your style.

However, the results you get will ultimately depend on you. You’ll only see the transformation and change in your style to the extent that you show up and put in the effort. This is a collaborative journey, and the more engaged and open you are, the more impactful your results will be.

I’m here to guide you, but your commitment and action are key to unlocking your full style potential.

Yes. I am a certified personal stylist and certified color analyst based in Charlotte, North Carolina, and I work with women both in person around Charlotte and virtually. My virtual sessions run over video, so it does not matter whether you are in Charlotte, in another state, or across the country, or in another country. We look at your body, your closet, and your life the same way we would in person, and you get the same eye on you either way. If you are local, we can also work in your actual closet.

I work with women across the greater Charlotte area, including Ballantyne, Myers Park, Waxhaw, Weddington, Fort Mill, Tega Cay, Indian Land, Matthews, Mint Hill, Davidson, and Monroe. In-person styling and closet sessions happen at your home. Color analysis sessions are done inside my studio in Indian Land. If you are outside the area, everything I offer also runs virtually, so we can work together from wherever you are.

I travel up to 30 miles from zip code 29707 for in-person styling services. For locations beyond 30 miles, I charge 70 cents per mile plus the cost of any tolls or parking fees.

If overnight travel is necessary, additional travel expenses will apply. I am also available to travel by plane to work with clients, and we can discuss the specifics of travel arrangements as needed.

Please note that services do not include parking fees, and these will be the responsibility of the client.

I work during the weekdays. Most women prefer to work with me when family and distractions aren’t around, even if our appointment is virtual. For those who want to really focus on the process, many clients choose to take a half-day off work to dedicate time to our session.

This ensures that you can give your full attention to the transformation we’re working on, whether it’s in-person or virtually. Let’s make this time work for you!

I work with women of all size. As a stylist, my goal is to dress you, not your size. Together, we’ll focus on finding the best looks for your unique body, and I’ll help you feel confident and stylish in clothes that highlight your best features. Style is personal, and no matter your size, we’ll create a wardrobe that reflects you and your individual style.

Absolutely not! I hear this from women all the time, and I want you to know—you deserve to feel beautiful right now. Our bodies change over time, and yes, it can be tough, especially as we age. But if you’re on a journey to health and happiness, now is the time to embrace your style, no matter where you are in your journey.

You’ve found your way to my website for a reason—you’re ready for a change. You’re fed up with how you feel about your style and how it’s impacting your confidence. Don’t ignore that gut feeling!

We’ll work with your current body, and you can absolutely adjust your budget to start small. When you reach your goal weight, you’ll be even more excited to complete your wardrobe overhaul. And when it comes to any pieces that don’t quite fit, a tailor will be your best friend. When we select items you adore but they’re a little too big, your tailor can make them fit you perfectly as you reach your goals!

First off, it’s completely okay! Take a deep breath—you’re not alone, and there’s no judgment here. My world is a Judgement-Free Zone!

If you’ve purchased a package that includes a closet edit, we’ll work together to get your closet organized and streamlined, and we’ll do it at your pace. This is all about creating a space that makes you feel good and reflects your true style. We’ll tackle it together, and I promise, you’ll feel so much better once everything is organized and aligned with your goals.

You’ve got this, and I’m here to help you every step of the way!

Absolutely not! Client investment for their own clothing typically begins at $2000 and beyond. We will  have a conversation about your budget during our initial style consultation. I believe in working within your parameters to curate a wardrobe that’s both stylish and functional. While this may mean fewer pieces, I focus on quality over quantity—ensuring you get pieces you love and feel confident in, all while staying within your budget.

Absolutely! A career transition is the perfect time to refresh your image and make sure your style reflects your new role and goals. Whether you're moving into a more professional or creative environment, your wardrobe plays a crucial role in building confidence and projecting the right image.

Together, we’ll curate a wardrobe that not only makes you feel confident and stylish but also aligns with your career aspirations. From powerful work outfits to looks for networking events and interviews, I’ll guide you through each step, ensuring your style matches your next-level career.

I’ve got you covered! Getting back into the dating scene is about feeling confident, vibrant, and your best self—and your wardrobe plays a big part in that. We’ll curate looks that make you feel beautiful, confident, and ready to take on the world, whether it’s for a casual date or a more formal evening out.

Together, we’ll select outfits that highlight your best features, reflect your personality, and make you feel incredible. Style can boost your confidence, and when you feel great in your clothes, that energy is magnetic.

I'm SO excited for you! If you are READY to go, most packages have an option to get signed up right away. Once you have made your payment and completed your contract (the Terms & Conditions inside of the checkout cart), I will email you a link to get your first appointment scheduled. Appointments are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis, so the sooner you complete payment, the better!

The first appointment for ALL of my styling Clients will include a Virtual meeting where we talk about your styling goals. If you choose a Special Event package, Photo Shoot package, or Single Service package, this call will be very straightforward.  If you are purchasing a longer-term styling package, we are going to dive in-depth into vision planning and style evaluations. For longer term packages, you will receive an email with paperwork that needs to be completed and submitted prior to our first appointment so that we can make the best use of our first appointment together!  

This is a great question, and I’m so glad you asked! While I handle most of the work in your styling package, it’s important to understand that developing a truly aligned style is a collaborative process. For your style to truly stick, your input is essential. I can give you amazing style, but without your involvement, it won’t feel like your style.

Most of your “work” will be upfront, including filling out style forms so we get everything right from the start. From there, we’ll have in-person appointments (unless you're a virtual client) where we’ll dive into your wardrobe, do shopping, and refine your looks. I’ll take as many photos as I can during our sessions to help you visualize your closet transformation, and for any additional photos you need, you can either take them yourself or have a family member assist.

You’ll also spend some time ordering from links (if you don't want me to order for you).

For longer-term packages, depending on scheduling, the process typically takes about 4 weeks. We’ll make sure everything flows seamlessly, with your collaboration at the heart of the process!

Dependent upon your package selection, you may have this option.  A Digitized closet is the items in your closet put into a virtual Look Book so that I can curate custom looks with the pieces that you own and/or I have recommended and you have purchased.  Some packages do not have a digitized closet, some have an offering of a select number of digitized "looks".

Voxer is a voice messaging app that allows us to stay in constant communication in real-time. It is available in some packages. It’s like having a direct line to me whenever you need styling advice, outfit help, or just a quick question about your wardrobe—Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 4 PM.

Whether you need advice about a specific outfit, are unsure about a shopping decision, or just want to run something by me, Voxer makes it easy to get personalized guidance. It’s the ultimate way for us to stay connected, even when you’re on the go!

A personal stylist helps you put together outfits and build a wardrobe that fits your body and your life. An image consultant works on the fuller picture of how you present yourself, including how your style reads in a room. A color analyst identifies the colors that work with your natural coloring so your clothes and your face are seen at the same time. I do all three, because they are parts of one skill rather than separate services. Most women were handed rules for each and never taught how the pieces fit together, and that is the part I teach.

Girl, NO! Absolutely not!  My style does NOT = your style.  We are going to work together to truly identify your style. That is why you are here. You always have a voice with me and we will walk the path together.

I can shop anywhere and on any budget. That being said, I do not believe in Fast Fashion. I will NOT shop from places such as Shein, TEMU, Forever 21, Amazon, Target, etc.  Companies that price their clothing that low typically do not have safe working conditions for their employees (including child labor) in addition to making poor quality clothing that is bad for the environment AND won't last. Those are key distinctions for me.  I believe in sustainability, so I will always shop in places where I believe the quality of the clothing you invest in will last long-term. I would rather you purchase a few well-made pieces than several pieces that will not wash and wear well or last you long.

At this time I do not. While I have been trained and certified in Men's Styling, I have decided to put my focus on women and helping them transform their lives and their confidence.

Absolutely! I’d love to speak at your event and share my expertise on style. Whether you’re looking for a talk on building confidence through style, mastering wardrobe essentials, or any other topic, I can tailor my presentation to fit your needs.

Start by visiting this page on my website to see what I offer.

Yes, and for a lot of women it is the better fit. Hiring me one on one gets your style handled by an expert. Learning it yourself means you can dress the woman you already are every morning without needing anyone, because you understand what works on you and why. That is what The Elevae Experience teaches, an online program for women 35 and up where you build the eye to style yourself for good. If you want a smaller first step, The Style Lab is a small group where you learn how to create outfits inside your own closet with my eyes on your style weekly.

Yes. The Elevae Experience™ is my online personal style program for women 35 and up, and you can take it from anywhere. It teaches you to see what works on your body, your coloring, and your life, so getting dressed stops being a question you re-solve every morning, and you keep that skill for good. It stays open year round, with live cohorts at set points through the year.

You start with the body you have now. When your shape shifts, the pieces that used to work sometimes stop working as well, and buying more clothes rarely solves it. What solves it is learning to read your body as it is now so you can choose from a place of understanding instead of guessing. That is the whole approach inside The Elevae Experience™, built for women 35 and up whose bodies have changed and whose style has not caught up yet.

AI can hand you information all day, outfit formulas, color theory, capsule lists, and it is not bad at that. What it cannot do is know the difference between the information it is gathering that is current or dated or if the place it is gathering information from is even reputable. It also cannot look at you. It has never seen your body move, watched how a neckline sits on you, or noticed that the jacket you love reads wrong the second you put it on. Style is a skill you apply to a specific person, and that person is you. Everything I teach starts from actually seeing you, whether that is my eye on you one on one or the skill you build to see yourself. That is the part an AI tool cannot ever get right.
