Girlfriend Time At Roxanna's

One of my most favorite things to do is rehab a closet.  Had the opportunity to do this for an amazing woman last evening.  Roxanna lives in a beautiful log cabin nestled on a wooded property.  She is a professional who helps a lot of women.  Roxanna and I got to know each other when she invited me to speak to her staff a couple months ago using my Body Type Dressing Workshop.   Roxanna had a goal to hire me to help her in her own closet after her son's June wedding. 

Well the date for our "Closet Rehab" time was set for the evening of July 7th which was last night and I am telling you we had a blast!  I think Roxanna's greatest fear was that I would not find anything in her closet to work with.  Boy was she worrying about nothing.

Picture this...we were editing items and creating outfits all at the same time.  Clothes were piling up on the bed that needed to be donated and flung over a chair that needed to be altered.  Many clothes were going back into the closet that were exceptionally good.   Roxanna was trying on what I thought would look great together and we were snapping pictures along the way so she could  remember these clothing combinations after I left.  I think she would have been a bit overwhelmed if we had not taken pictures...what a valuable tool!

Roxanna's closet is now filled with clothes that she absolutely loves and knows what to do with.  Her only problem this morning was....trying to decide what cool outfit she should  wear for the day.   Just 24 hours earlier she was looking at the same closet saying...I have nothing to wear.   This experience with Roxanna juices my passion to help even more women discover the abundance of their closet and to help them "love everything in their closet".  

Roxanna loves black and white with neutrals....very on trend way to wear clothing!  This top had a touch of blush which is a.very current fashion forward feature.  Incorporating  belts into her wardrobe are a must....this accessory makes her figure go from so...so...to WOW!

Today my mind it racing with ideas for more outfits that we did not even put together.   Thinking after Roxanna purchases a few key pieces to finish her wardrobe with 2-3 favorite colors she may want to hire me for another 1-2 hour session  to "closet shop"  just a bit more so we can put together an even bigger picture portfolio of her wardrobe options.

This is what I find interesting....many times women are shopping, shopping, shopping when really all they need to do is shop in their closet.  The outfits are already there in abundance. When an abundance of outfits are discovered within your own closet, the desire to spend more money on things that are not needed soon disappears.  Sometimes...enough is enough!
