Need Some Wardrobe Pizzaz? Try a Local Boutique
Lola Blue is a local boutique in my neighborhood. It epitomizes unique pieces you will love. Most people don’t need more clothes—they need the right clothes. That’s one of the biggest reasons I love introducing Indiana Wardrobe Stylist clients to carefully selected local boutiques. The difference starts with the shopping experience. Big box […]
March into Fall with Style!
I took these photos at a recent Nordstrom Fashion Show for Influencers. They show many ways you can start to change up your style as we leave summer for fall. Some are very on trend, like the lace shorts and midi skirt. I purchased the pink Cing a Cept shirt above because I have […]
The Many Types of Suits to Buy
One of the most common Carmel Personal Stylist questions I hear from clients is, “Should I buy a bespoke suit, order a made-to-measure suit, or simply alter one off the rack?” The answer depends on your budget, your body shape, and how often you wear a suit.

Fabric, Laundry Soap and Allergies – Part 2
It’s hard to imagine, but the culprit of some of your clothing allergies may lie in the laundry room! Many people think allergies only come from food, pollen, or pets.

Style and Fabric Allergies – They’re Real!
Photo by Karolina Biloshenko Now and then I meet Indiana Wardrobe Stylist clients who tell me about allergies to clothing, laundry soap, or fragrances in general. These are really serious issues for them. And sometimes a person will have a philosophical issue with plastics or extremely inexpensive clothing that often has the most chemicals or […]
How to Avoid Decision Fatigue
I was recently reading an article in The New York Times that mentioned “Decision Fatigue.” It was an interesting article because it talked about very busy people who wear the same type of clothes every day to avoid making one more decision.

July 3
I have been very busy every summer doing closet cleanses. It must be the time of year or clients feel the need to clean, but this is when I am busy with this task. I never do a closet audit without out basic info though, or really how could I justify my recommendations? The […]
