Because style is more than the clothes you wear or the decor in your home or the parties you throw. Style is about taking little pieces of your story and showing the world around you who you are and who you want to be.
For over 20 years, I’ve built a career in fashion, events, and design, blending them into one philosophy: everything in life deserves a sense of occasion. From curating closets to styling homes to planning celebrations, I bring not just an eye for detail, but a lifetime of experience in making people and moments shine.Working with me means more than hiring a stylist—it means having a partner who sees you fully, understands your story, and helps translate it into fashion, spaces, and events that feel effortlessly chic and authentically you.

Clothes are just the beginning. Working with a stylist can boost your confidence—both personally and professionally—while making getting dressed feel effortless.
Through the process, you’ll discover your unique style, understand what flatters you and why, and stop dressing to “hide” the parts you’re unsure of. Instead, you’ll learn to highlight the features that make you feel confident and secure.
Together, we’ll edit out the pieces that no longer serve you, refine your wardrobe so it works for your lifestyle, and show you how to get dressed with ease every single day. The best part? You’ll wear closer to 80% of your closet—and never say, “I have nothing to wear!” again.

Your home is more than four walls—it’s the backdrop of your life. Working with a home stylist helps you uncover your unique aesthetic and create spaces that feel intentional, functional, and beautifully you.
Through the process, you’ll refine your rooms to reflect your lifestyle, let go of clutter or décor that no longer serves you, and bring in pieces that add warmth, ease, and personality. The result is a home that not only looks chic but also supports how you want to live.
-
Events are about more than décor—they’re about creating experiences. Working with an event stylist helps you clarify your vision, refine the details, and elevate the atmosphere so your guests feel something memorable the moment they arrive.
From intimate dinners to milestone celebrations, you’ll have guidance on color, flow, and finishing touches that transform an occasion into something extraordinary. Instead of stress, you’ll enjoy an effortless process that results in a celebration as chic as it is unforgettable.

Online styling gives you all the benefits of working with me—without the need to meet in person. After an initial consultation, we’ll connect virtually to discuss your goals, preferences, and lifestyle needs. I’ll then curate personalized recommendations, mood boards, or shopping lists tailored just for you.
From fashion edits to home styling to event inspiration, you’ll receive clear guidance, resources, and support—all designed to make your life feel more effortless and chic, no matter where you are.
-
It depends on what we’re styling for. For fashion, we’ll choose designers, boutiques, or department stores based on your coloring, shape, lifestyle, and personal style goals. For home styling, we’ll explore décor shops, furniture showrooms, and unique local finds that reflect your aesthetic and elevate your space. And for events, we may visit specialty rental companies, floral studios, or curated décor sources to bring your vision to life.
The focus is always on quality pieces that fit your needs—whether that’s a wardrobe refresh, a living room edit, or an unforgettable celebration.

Whether we’re shopping for your wardrobe, designing your home, or styling your next event, my goal is to make the process effortless and enjoyable. Along the way, you’ll save time and money with curated choices that fit your needs—and gain confidence in your personal style.
