Style is the expression of someone’s personality through their appearance. There really isn’t a “best” style; meaning there is no one look that is right for all people. My job as Fashion/Wardrobe Stylist is to help clients find their own sense of personal style and express what is natural for them. What feels best on a client typically is what looks best!
Here are a few basic styles to help you uncover your style preference:
Classic:
This look never goes out of style! A person fitting this profile uses a neutral palette for makeup and has defined cheekbones, eyes dressed with mascara, and define brows. Hair is likely in a chignon or pulled back. Celebs that fit this profile include Gwyneth Paltrow and Sophia Loren.
Dramatic:
Dramatic people are self-confident and flamboyant. They wear defined eye makeup, use their face as a palette like an artist working with a canvas. The person that fits this profile love to wear black heels and black slacks. Celebs that fit this profile include Beyoncé and Victoria Beckham.
Elegant:
This woman fills the room with her presence. Her look is polished and classic, with makeup based on a neutral palette. Her lip color and eye makeup are soft but her lashes are dramatic! An elegant woman may wear a black Armani suit. Celebs that fit this profile include Grace Kelly and Katie Holmes.
Natural:
Women with this style have a more wholesome look. They often wear minimal makeup, with maybe a touch of lipstick and/or mascara. Their clothing is comfortable and cozy.

They may wear something such as a grey pair of trousers with loafers, a turtle-neck sweater and a jacket. Their hair is short or simply styled.
