How does Guided Look work for you?

I am feeling a boost of confidence after my consult with Nicolette at Guided Look! I'm six weeks postpartum and this consult helped me to get excited about rediscovering confidence in my wardrobe after my body went through so many changes. As a curvy brown skin girl, I've never had an easy time wearing what's "in style" because it's always been built for girls who look much different than I do. This led me to wearing clothes that hid my body as much as possible to feel comfortable. I never knew where to turn for support on my wardrobe, and I figured consults like this were reserved and accessible only for celebrities. After talking with Guided Look, I feel excited about rebuilding my wardrobe with colors and styles that compliment my body and make me feel confident in this new chapter. Not to mention, the session itself was so fun. Nicolette is a joy and made me feel so comfortable talking about myself. I couldn't recommend Guided Look more!

Nicolette and I met recently to identify my clothing style. That's putting it simply; I had no idea all of the elements that go in to defining style. First she helped me identify my ideal color palette based on the contrast of my features and my skin tone. There's more to this than I can mention here, it's very enlightening. Next, through a fun questionnaire, we determined my essence (my inner vibe and personality style). Then she determined my body type. All of these elements determined my style along with my flare, the little details I can incorporate from other style types. Next, we went through different clothing already in my closet; jackets, blouses, pants, skirts and she coached me to see details I never noticed or considered before that were more or less flattering based on all of the elements that make up my style. Who knew the texture of fabric is just as important as the color? She even guided me on what jewelry flatters my style.

What I loved most was Nicolette's patience with me, just about all of this information was new to me and she helped me digest it. She would ask probing questions each time I put on a piece of clothing until something clicked for me and the details made sense.

Nicolette followed up with sending to me my Style Guide to use while selecting clothing from my closet or in stores. This was time very well spent, I walked away feeling so much more confident about my current wardrobe and excited to purchase a few new pieces with my new knowledge.

I would say I am someone who loves fashion and uniquely styling myself, but I was never educated in things like color, shape, and essences. I naturally knew that I liked certain styles on myself, but I would often buy things that I loved on other people that just didn't work for me. After having a VERY thorough and detailed analysis done by Guided Look, I now understand so much more about what works for me and enhances my natural body type, complexion, and overall essence. I have so many items that didn't work for me, but now knowing what I know about myself, I have more of a specific direction when shopping or styling. Guided Look also helped me edit my closet and purge. She helps determine color season that best fits your complexion, body type and shapes of clothing that work best, essences and what textures complement my style, and more. She also takes your measurements of bust, waist, and hips to help choose correct sizing when shopping. She also provides a very detailed document of the analysis that I can reference as a guide. Again, I already loved fashion, but now with this analysis, I'm even more juiced about styling myself. This analysis has brought even more joy to the process and I'm so thankful! Very worth it, and ends up saving me money from buying things that don't work (and never returning it because I suck at that).

Guided Look did such a great job walking me through the whole process and making the experience both educational and fun! I was so impressed with Nicolette's knowledge of color theory, different body types, and all the different style concepts.

She made me feel so comfortable and relaxed, which is really important when you're talking about something as personal as your body. Instead of making me feel like I needed to change anything, she helped me figure out how to celebrate the parts of myself I already love, both physically and emotionally, through my style.

I left with a much better understanding of what works for me and why, and I'm excited to feel more confident getting dressed and play around with the concepts I learned. I would absolutely recommend Guided Look to anyone who wants to better understand their personal style in a fun and encouraging environment!

I had a wonderful time getting to know my body a bit more while working with Guided Look and Nicolette. She taught me what would work best for me while also validating my comforts and current relationship with fashion. She was thorough in her examination of my coloring, style essence, and body type. Her suggestions were thoughtful and detailed taking into account the aspects of my body I most wanted to highlight. She provided me a document with everything we talked through in our session including examples, pictures, and further explanations. Guided Look also took a few body measurements to facilitate shopping online. Toward the end of our session, she let me try on tops, jackets, and dresses, sharing what changes in color, draping, length, fit, fabric weight, and texture, would make me look brighter and most put together. There were a couple options that didn't "flatter" my body type that I still enjoyed and she explained how the fabric weight and length may hide my figure rather than saying I should never wear it. One of the best things about this analysis was Nicolette reminding me that I can incorporate as much or as little of what I've learned into my styling. I'm excited to look at my closet with new eyes!
