I met Londen in high school and at some point after I
graduated I added her as a friend on Facebook. During the late summer 2014, she
began posting about her image consulting business and that she worked with male
clients. I was curious about her servictes and sent her a message asked if she
worked with female clients as well. She responded that she did and it was
during this conversation that I asked what her process was for working with
clients. We met for a consultation and I found her to be very knowledgeable as
well as inquisitive. She asked a ton of questions to get a sense of my style
and what I wanted to accomplish by using her services.
It was really helpful
because I am one of those people who loves to shop but will talk myself out a
purchase less than two minutes after I fell in love with a piece. Therefore, I
have to make many impulse buys that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. We scheduled a time to do the actual shopping
experience at the consultation.
The day of the shopping experience I was a bit worried but
once we met at our first store, it felt like I was shopping with one of my
friends. She made suggestions and picked out options that fit my style as well
as challenged me to try on things that I would have thought was not my style.
It was a fun afternoon and I walked away with a few new pieces that I probably
would not have purchased had it not been for her guidance.
Overall the experience was amazing! She made it fun and used
the consultation to really hone in on my style and even challenged me to step
outside my comfort zone. I didn't feel
judged or forced to purchase or try on anything. It was really an exploration
of my style and how I could improve it. Now when I shop, I think of the things she
shared with me and I am able to incorporate trends with my love of all things
vintage and laid back. I also giggle to myself a little because I hear her
encouragement in my head to try things out of my normal style.
Would I recommend her? Yes! You will not leave disappointed
or feeling like you didn't learn something about yourself or how to really make
great clothing and accessory choices.
