Style by Candace

I had a great experience with Candace and am only giving her 4 stars simply because I don’t have anything else to compare her with, and I typically don’t give 5 stars for anything :).
This is the first time I’ve tried a personal shopper and I chose Candace because of all the other great reviews she had. Normally I’m suspicious of someone or something on Unilocal with all perfect ratings, but now I can see why she came so highly recommended.
She’s incredibly personable and detail-​oriented. She’s direct, but polite — which I think we could all use more of in this world. She talked me through each decision as we audited my closet so I could learn how to pick out future items that I wouldn’t regret later. Then we talked through my wardrobe needs, scheduled a day for shopping, and she went early to pre-​shop for me so we didn’t waste any time together. Efficiency makes my heart sing! We had a lot of luck shopping — she picked out items that I probably never would have considered, and was surprised to find that I loved them after trying them on.
She then came back for a third appointment, in which she took photos of my clothes (which, in all honesty I probably could have done myself and saved her a trip!), and then talked through any questions I had about integrating the new clothes with the old.
Lastly, she created an online «Lookbook» where she arranged outfits and selected recommendations for shoes, which we didn’t get a chance to look at in our shopping trip. After I worked with the new outfits and shopped a bit more on my own (implementing her lessons), I reached out again with a few questions and asked for her feedback on what I had done. She immediately responded and not only answered my questions, but added additional outfits to my online Lookbook that integrated the new pieces I had uploaded!
All in all, Candace helped me reach my goal of creating a wardrobe that’s classy and dynamic (professional and casual), while helping me feel more confident about choosing the right clothes for me. She was a pleasure to work with and I hope to work with her again in the future!

I scheduled time with Candace to do closet editing. I expected this experience to be very overwhelming, given that I’ve been accumulating clothes for almost 15 years and felt guilty giving away stuff that had been hardly worn. I also did not know what’s in, what’s out, and what I should keep just in case it comes back in style.
I was pleasantly surprised with how EFFICIENT Candace was. She right away divided all my clothes into items that must go, items that are keepers, and ones she wanted me try on and decide accordingly.
She gave me suggestions on what would look good with what and gave advice on what’s flattering and what’s not for my body shape.
2 hours later my closet was transformed from dysfunctional to functional. It was a fun, easy, and enlightening experience. She even helped me pack and box the clothes that needed to go. I feel relieved to get rid of stuff that I wasn’t using. I can actually see everything in my closet. I look forward to shopping with Candace to replace the clothes I gave away to charity. Thanks Candace! I would definitely do this again!

LOVED working with Candace! She came over and went through my closet. She helped me get rid of stuff I needed to (although it was hard to say goodbye!) She helped me edit my closet and define my style. She put outfits together for me and maximized my wardrobe. She put pieces together that I never would have thought of and they looked great!!! Opened my eyes to what I’m really missing. I LOVED everything she bought for me. She has an eye for style, color, and complimenting my body type. A lot of the items were on sale. She listened to me and helped me achieve my goal. I highly recommend her services for anyone who wants to be more confident and fashionable.

I had Candace come over and help filter out my closet and help give me some fashion advice. I loved working with her. She was easy and fun to work with and I felt so comfortable with her. She helped me let go of a lot of stuff I was just holding onto, but really couldn’t use anymore. Then she personally shopped for me. I loved what she chose for me and those are always my go to pieces. She also returned anything I didn’t want. It was great having a personal fashion stylist.

I used Candace to help my 15 year old daughter find her style and take her shopping. She was GREAT! My daughter loved her and they had a great day shopping for reasonably priced, age appropriate clothes and left me out of the drama! Will definitely use her again! Thanks Candace!

I used her «Sort, Shop and Style» service and was absolutely thrilled. I am a busy working gal who always wanted to update and improve my wardrobe but never had the time, energy or knowledge of where to even start. Candace was incredibly efficient, kind and personable. She took the time to learn about my lifestyle and what works best for me. I used another personal shopper before and found Candace’s method incredibly personable.
Sorting was an eye-​opening experience – discovering that nearly 50% of wardrobe was ill-​fitting, out of date or worn out. Shopping was an absolute delight. Candace pre-​shopped for me and made the outing efficient. I learned what is best for my body type and lifestyle (lesson: don’t go by the size on the tag, go by the fit!). Lastly, our Sorting session was by far my favorite. She was able to talk me through why certain pieces go well together vs others. We put pieces together I otherwise would have never thought of.
After going to work the next week with my new style in hand, I received countless compliments. I am now excited to shop and know exactly what to look for because of Candace. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
