“Dana found items for me that I wouldn’t have picked out for myself.”

I’d rather be on a trail or dog walk, working in my garden, crafting a new recipe…doing anything or being anywhere than at the mall shopping on a sunny afternoon (rainy day, in a snow storm). But, having reached “a certain age” and gained weight/changed shape in recent years, I felt it was time to re-evaluate the cacophony of miscellaneous pieces my wardrobe had become – hand-me-downs, consignments store pieces, discount store drive-by impulse buys and lots of leggings. So many leggings. And many things that simply don’t fit – or work – anymore.

Having recently read a book about capsule wardrobes, I decided to invest in my wardrobe – and myself – by seeking out Dana’s assistance in securing some anchor pieces.

It was helpful to have Dana in my home to review not only my clothes by also my space. I felt like she worked hard to understand my personality and how my style reflects it. Putting together a Pinterest board of my style not only helped Dana but also was a good exercise for me.

When I met Dana to shop, I was delighted to find a dressing room full of pieces she had already shopped for me. Dana has an eye for identifying not just whether something fits but why it does or doesn’t. She also found items for me that I wouldn’t have picked out for myself. Thanks to Dana, I have the basics that I need to anchor and accent my new capsule wardrobe.

“Putting together an outfit in the morning is no longer a chore.”

Fashion and clothing has never been my thing – there are so many other ways I would rather spend my time! Yet there came a time in my career when I realized that to be viewed as a top tier professional, I needed to walk into a room in a more commanding way, including my clothing. I was looking for a way to look put-together and professional, while still being my happy self, and Dana made that both easy and fun!

Putting my outfit together in the morning is no longer a chore, and I don’t second-guess my shoes or accessories. The outfits just work. I look and feel great, and get compliments on how “put-together” I look. I also love that Dana isn’t afraid to express an opinion – if something just isn’t flattering on you, she’ll tell you, while also suggesting a piece that would be a better choice.

“I would highly recommend you invest in yourself.”

I have worked with Dana for a couple of years, and I now have a closet of clothes that I love and therefore I wear them all! It’s great having variety, and my book of outfits is so helpful when putting together my outfit for the day. Dana is fun to work with, honest (in a very nice way), and really knows her stuff! I would highly recommend you invest in yourself and work with Dana – it will make getting dressed (and feeling great about you look) a breeze.

“Dana has cured my shopping blues.”

 

I had one of those birthdays with a zero at the end. I had also built a successful business and felt like how I showed up did not match the quality of my work and my personal style.   Add to that I always felt I was missing the “girl gene” for shopping and picking clothes. I knew something had to change and I did not know how to fix it on my own. Thank goodness for Dana! Dana has taught me so much in such a short time.

Her approach to learning about me and my style was fun and got us to my desired look quickly. I get to look more professional while keeping my laid-back style. Now when I walk into a client’s office I know my style matches my work and that makes me more confident.

It was also a huge relief to have Dana help me cull my closet. I used to dread looking in there but now it is a treat… junk is gone and I have all sorts of great options from which to choose. I believe “Dr. Dana” has cured my fear of shopping. I feel like I have the tools and knowledge to go forward and shop with confidence. I can highly recommend putting Dana on the job. Thanks Dana!
