1) How long have you been doing this, and how did you become a style expert?
It all began in fourth grade. My best friend had to change schools, and we wanted to make sure she made a great first impression. I edited her closet, getting rid of all things childish and not fitting for a cool fourth grader. Together, we planned the outfits she would wear during her first week at a new school.
My passion for helping people feel great about their style led me to a career as a retail merchandiser and sales representative for a large footwear and apparel company. It was not until my Dad promised to give my Mom $500 to go shopping if I would edit her closet that I realized I could help women everywhere achieve simple and effortless style.
I created Style with Lee to show women that great style isn’t about being egotistical; it’s about achieving the confidence and happiness you deserve. The right clothes can make you feel invincible, giving you the confidence to accomplish anything you desire. I am committed to helping women feel more confident through the development of personal style. I have worked with countless individual clients, helped corporations upgrade their employees’ images, and have spoken in front of groups teaching people how to achieve the style they want.
2) Why is style important?
Style is not about fashion. It’s about expressing yourself and being comfortable with who you are. Style is also about fun and confidence. When we have confidence, we feel good, carry ourselves proudly, and want to look our best. Style makes all of this possible.
3) Who are the clients you have worked with?
I work with women—just like you—who stand in their closet staring at a sea of clothes, wishing they owned something they actually wanted to wear. As with anything in life, your style changes over time, so you need the right tools and resources to ensure your style always sends the message and image you want to portray.
Over the years, my clients have included…
◦Women who want to open the closet door and know exactly what to wear.
◦Women who want help getting rid of clothing that no longer works for their body shape or lifestyle.
◦Women who no longer want to feel bored wearing the same old thing.
◦Women who need to get dressed quickly and easily because they have no time to worry about what to wear.
◦Women who want to learn how to shop for wardrobe pieces they can use to make additional outfits with clothing they already own.
◦Women who want to have great style that doesn’t require a team of experts each morning.
◦Women who have gained or lost weight and want to find flattering styles for their shape.
◦Women who want a fun and fresh wardrobe without having to go shopping every week.
◦Busy women who want to feel stylish going from work to the PTA or to dinner with friends.

◦Women who want to upgrade their style within a budget.
◦Brides who need help finding the perfect wardrobe for countless bridal engagements.
◦Companies that need assistance upgrading their employees’ images.
◦Organizations that want to offer fun and informative style seminars.
4) I’m a busy professional. Can you help me?
Yes! I work with entrepreneurs and professionals who know their success depends greatly on who they are and the image they portray. Whether you are preparing to speak at an event or simply dressing for leadership and success, I can work with you to find your unique style and the best way to dress for success.
5) What really sets you apart from other style experts?
I truly believe anyone can have great style. The development of your personal style is not frivolous or vain; it is an important part of how you effectively communicate with the rest of the world.
When working with clients, I focus on achieving style through a building blocks process. This means I value the act of teaching you why some things will work and others will not. When you work with me, I will show you how to create a style that is true to who you are, appropriate for your age and lifestyle, and easy to re-create and adapt for years to come.
To help clients achieve great style, I follow this philosophy:
Step 1: Know who you are.
Step 2: Create a style realistic for your lifestyle.
Step 3: Treat your closet as valuable real estate.
Step 4: Learn to shop like a pro.
Step 5: Put it together quickly and easily.
6) With whom do you work best, and what is expected of me?
Style with Lee consultations, workshops, programs, and products are created for women who want to achieve simple and effortless style. All of our services are tailored to teach you how to obtain a personal style that makes you feel confident and happy.
I work best with women who are interested in learning more about the value of their image and want to look great without spending a lot of time or effort. All our services require is an open mind and the belief that with a little help you can have the style you desire. I can show you how to achieve the rest!
7) I love the idea of getting one-on-one style help but feel uncomfortable having someone see my closet.
Your closet and your style are very personal. It is not my job to judge anything about your closet organization, cleanliness, or style. I am here to help you achieve the style goals you want to achieve. For the best results, I need to see what is already in your closet. This helps me learn more about you and your personal style and helps us discover the best fits and styles for your body shape and lifestyle.
Once I know what you already have in your closet, I can easily help you create a wardrobe plan that helps you wear what you already have more often, create new and different outfits, and purchase new items that integrate into your existing wardrobe.
Please feel free to check out my testimonial page. Many of my clients have felt the same way you do, but will attest that the benefits highly outweigh the fear of someone seeing their closet. You can also contact my team or me to set up a complimentary get-acquainted consultation to learn more about the closet edit process.
8. How can I learn more about the products and services you offer?
It is my goal to offer products and services that provide women the resources they need to achieve the style they desire. I can help you create the style you want using many different time frames, budgets, or locations. Our services range from a one-time Virtual Style Consultationto year-round styling with a VIP Package.

9) Do you offer gift certificates?
Yes, I do! Style with Lee gift certificates are perfect for friends and family, like your sister who always complains she has nothing to wear (which is why she swiped your favorite sweater!) or the husband looking for the perfect gift for his wife. Please contact me to purchase your next Style with Lee gift certificate.
