I tend to think of myself as a pretty fashionable person, who has has their own distinct style. That being said, I was curious as to how Ilana would take that into consideration and compile outfits that I not only felt comfortable in, but that also felt like myself. Ilana nailed it.
She came in, re organized my closet and forced me toss the truly junk pieces of clothing I was hoarding. In addition, she got me to see what I thought were my not-so-wearable or tired pieces, as something new and exciting. She also paired some of my funkiest most eccentric, almost costume-like pieces with completely wearable accessories and basic pairings in order to make them functional for my day to day. Ilana as a stylist, was uplifting and gracious in the delivery of her opinions every step of the way.
To finish, we had a shoot with some of the outfits she had styled for me. She was poised, professional, and directed me in a way that made me feel confident and natural. The pictures, outfits, and overall experience had us both full of life, energy, and undeniable confidence.
