Wow! I'm not sure where to begin. I bookmarked Shop with Val on my computer about eight months ago. I just could not decide whether hiring a stylist was something I wanted to do. I finally decided to contact her. I am so glad I did! Valerie was very quick to respond to my contact form. We set up a time to talk on the phone. She was prompt with her call and chatted about her services and what I could expect from her. She sent me forms to fill out so she could learn a little bit more about me, my wardrobe and my needs. I settled on the package I would like; and we set up my first appointment, the closet cleanse. OMG! What an amazing 3 hours that was! Valerie was so friendly and so easy to talk to and work alongside. Through trying on lots of my clothes she was able to teach me how certain styles did not flatter my figure and which styles looked great on my frame. She took extensive notes about what I needed to fill in the gaps of my wardrobe as we purged and organized my closet. Next, we will go shopping for the items on my list. I highly recommend Shop with Val!

Thank you, Helen! The time and effort you have put into to ensuring your closet looks its best is apparent. I'm glad I could help clear up some extra space and teach you a few things along the way. I look forward to helping your fill in the gaps and refine and elevate your style. See you soon!

My husband gifted me with a Shop with Val experience for the holidays and it will be hard for him to top this gift! It started with the closet consultation where we went through and got rid of a lot of pieces I hadn't worn since college. We ended up going on two shopping outings and the style lookbook was helpful to tie it all together. I've learned a lot from Val about how to dress for my body type and have loved feeling more confident with my wardrobe. Thank you, Val!

I can be indecisive so I wanted Val to help me in that area. She understood my request, took the emotion out of it, and gave me yes/no answers. She would explain why she would say yes to things along with the why behind the non keepers. She would also give suggestions on how to replace items or make substitutions in my wardrobe. I also got a follow up email with a list of items my closet was missing. Overall, it has been a great experience, and I have learned a lot.
