I spent the early years in fashion, working at corporate level in the industry with my side hustle being a personal stylist. As my styling business grew and became a full time business, enquiries became a frequent, daily part of my job. Often, potential clients that are looking for services offered and how they can translate working with a stylist to achieving their overall style goals.

Who are these clients and who reaches out to a personal stylist anyways?  Once upon a time we would hear about a celebrity stylist for the big events and that was about it. As the years have gone on the evolution of a personal stylist has shifted as well. It went from celebrities to everyday people! People working in education, law, medical, entrepreneur, engineer, author, finance, realtor, management and so many more are looking for assistance in their everyday personal style.

Why might this be?

Expert Guidance and Education: Understanding your body & what works best. Ignore the trends at first as the most important step to navigating an elevated personal style is to know how to shop to your body. What fits and works best for your shape, having you look and feel great (comfortable too!)

Wardrobe Audits: Mabelle Style will you go through your existing wardrobe, identifying what to keep, tailor, or donate, and how to create new outfits from what you already own. 

Trend Navigation: We can help you incorporate current trends in a way that suits your personal style, rather than blindly following fads that might not work for you.

Quality vs Quantity: When building a personal style, it’s not about more, more, more. It’s about having the right pieces to create interchangeable outfits. Go for elevated fabrics & perfect fits.  Less is more, creating a capsule wardrobe to start and then sprinkle in the fun pieces & trends. 

Time and Stress Savings: Busy lifestyles, you might love fashion or even have a well rounded wardrobe but struggle to have the time to put everything together. A stylist is a timesaver, we do all the work! Prepping, pulling and curating items just for you. You won’t need to spend hours aimlessly browsing, picking through racks to end up empty handed or even worse, making an impulse purchase.

Decision Fatigue: Staring at a closet full of clothes and feeling like you have “nothing to wear” is a common frustration. We can create curated outfits, making daily dressing effortless.

Saving Money in the Long Run: This might seem counterintuitive, but a stylist helps you make smart, intentional purchases. You’ll stop buying clothes that don’t fit, don’t suit you, or don’t go with anything else in your wardrobe, reducing wasted money on impulse buys.

Investment Pieces: Mabelle Style will advise on when to invest in higher-quality items that will last, and when to save on more trend-driven pieces.
