My motto is «Style Within»

I always say take the old and make it new, before we give up on it and buy something new. I believe that I am successful with my clients because I believe in finding their inner style (in clothing or the space their are trying to create), that compliments their personality as well as their assets. I don’t like to tell clients what to wear or buy things before getting to know them first. My job is to take the style that you might already have and make sure it works for what your goals are. This motto leads clients to be happy because they are comfortable in their clothing and or environment.

History

Established in 2013.

I have been working in Fashion since 2006 but it took this transformation to encourage me to become a Personal Stylist full time, where I believe that I can help people. The journey made me realize that clothing affects physical appearance, which could influence moods, which could lead to weight gain, which could cause depression. My mission is to teach and help clients to avoid and get through that experience and to understand the power that clothing carries.

My personal journey to styling others–

I had gained some weight and would only wear black leggings with large shirts. I truly thought it made me appear slimmer. I was WRONG. That «uniform» only gave me another 15 pounds within a month, since those leggings and oversized sweaters were creating more room to grow within. After several months I got tired of feeling awful and decided to buy three pairs of non-​stretch jeans to fit my larger body. At that point, I stopped hiding in big clothes and started to work with what I had. I dressed for my shape. Positive results created better moods. As soon as I gained confidence, even though I was still heavy, I started to miss my old clothing. Now I was ready for a gym membership. Only seven months later I was back in my old jeans. My trick to not giving up was trying on my old jeans every two weeks to see my progress, which pushed me harder and showed me the power that clothing may have.

I reached out to Thea when I was having difficulty finding a signature look for myself. I’m an actor and wanted to get more specific on what type of outfits would suit my demographic/​type best. There were nice clothes in my wardrobe but I wasn’t sure how to mix & match properly. She totally helped me out and divided my closet into separate categories which made things a lot clearer for me. She also recommended what items would be good additions to my closet to compliment what I already own. Highly recommended :) Thank you Thea!

Ok so I’m probably like the rest of you… busy, overworked and too drained to shop or look ‘current’; and after the internal battle of convincing myself that my clothes was ‘up to date’, I came to the conclusion that my closet did indeed need some corrective measures. I started to do some homework and came across a Thea’s Unilocal profile and decided to contact her. She took over 20 minutes to discuss my needs and answered my questions. She was extremely courteous, professional, and not to mention honest! I had her come over my house to review my closet and as a direct result we decluttered and organized the necessities. (We got rid of a lot that have been passed on to friends and family). In doing this Thea was able to educate me and help me understand what is best for my body and clothing needs ie work/​play. We met a second time where we spent several hours shopping. I have to say this women is on point! She’s fast, efficient and knows exactly what to look for. I’m not your traditional tall and skinny girl. I’m a petite women with curves which can be a tremendous challenge to shop for. Thea was able to make the impossible… possible!
My honest feedback would be if your wavering and thinking about hiring a stylist but not sure… DO IT! It’s worth it especially with Thea, she makes the painful… painless!!!

There really aren’t enough amazing things I can say about Thea. First of all, i found her through a Google search, went to her website, loved it, and wrote her a message through her «contact» tab. She emailed me back within an hour. I can not praise timely responses high enough. We were off to a good start. We had a couple email back and forths, and then scheduled a phone consult for later that day. When we spoke, she had done quite a bit of homework, not only on me (my website, instagram, etc), but also with the field I’m in and the pictures I wanted to capture in my photo shoot. She was not only quite personable but understood exactly what i was going for and welcomed me to send her as many pictures as i wanted to share my inspiration. We then met once at her home studio where she had a room full of clothes she had selected for me to try. And although she told me that she typically goes shopping for her clients to find the items they needed, she was compassionate to my budget and we agreed we could find enough looks between the two of our closets. In addition, she also referred a hair and makeup artist that was not only in my budget, but very very good. In the week between meeting Thea and the shoot, she texted me «to do» lists, poses for me to practice, and then additional reminders the day before and day of the shoot. And not only did she style my wardrobe, but she brought several props to the shoot and had some amazing ideas for pictures, which the photographer loved. Honestly, if all that weren’t enough, the best part about her presence throughout this whole experience was that it seemed as though she was just as excited about the photo shoot as I was. Throughout the shoot, she was helpful to everyone from the photographer, the MUA, me, AND thoroughly enthusiastic about what was transpiring with the pictures. I really am so grateful to have found her.

You can know a lot or very little about your personal style, and Thea will compliment it.
She’s incredibly thorough about making sure she understands who you are and what you’re about before getting into it. It seems so simple when you think about it, but Thea nails it with her engaged and direct approach!
I’m not super style-​inclined myself – I get overwhelmed when trying to explain my personal style to someone else. Thea breaks it down and truly listens to your thoughts and needs (price, likes, dislikes, occassion, etc.) so that the entire experiences feels less like a process and more like time with a friend.
Thea is the real deal!

I’ve known Thea for years and she has an amazing sense of style — both for herself and those around her. She has helped me countless times over the years to find outfits that are on trend and that flatter my body type. I would highly recommend her, she is energetic, friendly, caring, and has a genuine passion for style and helping her clients to feel good about themselves.

THEA IS AMAZING. I have used her talents twice for personal shopping/​styling and highly recommend going to her. Not only does know the latest in fashion, she’s able to find your own unique style and what you truly feel comfortable wearing. Also she didn’t make me spend a ton of money on something that I might not actually wear/​like. Go see Thea, you won’t be disappointed!

On a recent trip to Los Angeles, I had quite the conundrum! I was visiting from New York, and unprepared for the pleasant surprise of evening temperatures in the 50’s. Seasons in LA?! The hunt for a pair of stylish, yet comfortable, sweatpants began.
I was quite rushed and not in the mood to window shop. Thea was quick to accommodate my deadline and was available via text message. She was quick to identify a few stores where I could find a pair of affordable pants that met my requirements.
Thea suggested (and I agreed) to try on a few other items that I probably would not have picked out myself. Let’s be clear, Thea wasn’t pushing the latest craze, but allowed me to think more about enhancing my own style. Thea was very skilled at describing why she chose the items she did and how color and fit make all the difference.
In the end, I walked out of the store quite happy with 4 items, and all within my budget. I would highly recommend Thea as a companion shopper /​stylist anytime!

I worked with Thea on a couple occassions. She was very friendly, professional, and knew how to put things together. She was able to do what no other person has gotten me to do… buy not one but TWO pairs of skinny jeans. Her consultative skills are on point. I was happy with her work, so I referred her to my friend who also ended up loving her. If you are looking to add to your current wardrobe or completely mix it up… call Thea :)

I’m a busy professional, play it safe with conservative clothing, and have never had an «eye for fashion.» When I realized that my closet was almost entirely filled with dull colors and boring pieces, I reached out to Thea for help. In a single evening, Thea made me feel like a rock star. She arrived at the mall an hour before I did, and by the time I had arrived, she had already selected a variety of casual and professional pieces that she recommended for my body type and lifestyle based on the questionnaire that she had me fill out. I would have never selected some of the pieces that she picked for me, but once I tried them on, they looked terrific and fit beautifully. I realized that I had been wearing the wrong sizes and often the wrong cuts for by body shape, which only made me look frumpy and larger than I am.
Thea took me out of my boring comfort zone and helped me select clothing that, while still professional, was young and flattering (hardly boring). My colleagues have not stopped complimenting my outfits, which Thea selected for me. She even helped me identify the right undergarments.
After my shopping spree, Thea also offered to come to my home, help me organize my closet, and help me identify new outfits based on pieces that I already own.
I never thought hiring a stylist could be this impactful. I intend to work with Thea at least twice yearly. I love my new look!

Thea has helped me in two ways. Not only has she styled my clothing but she also helped me organize my closets.
I like to think of my myself as a very organized person but Thea took that to a whole new level. I have so much extra space now in my closet that my dresser it completely empty! It’s also so much easier to pick out what to wear because everything i categorized by when or what I would wear it to. She is even did some of the work without me when I had to go to a meeting so I didn’t even have to be home!
When it comes to the styling Thea is honest without making you feel embarrassed or self conscious. I have a lot of clothes but always gravitated towards the same few outfits. But now I wear more of the things I own and I have no days where feel like I have nothing to wear. Thea has a great eye and I love that she works with what you have and doesn’t just run out and tell you buy a whole new wardrobe!

As an individual with the fashion sense of a four year old, I can honestly say Thea can work with anything and anyone to bring out the best. I was lucky to catch an opening in her schedule for a surprise photo shoot. She helped me pull together several great ensembles/​looks and I was amazed at what a difference she made.

I highly recommend Thea’s styling services. I gave her complete creative freedom to dive into my closet and in just two hours, she created four outfit categories, with six outfits per category. She needed very little direction and worked quickly and efficiently. Most importantly, I’m very pleased with all of the looks she created.

Thea is amazing! She is extremely compassionate, understanding, and super savvy when it comes to coming up with a style that will fit your needs. So cool that she teaches you as she goes, so you actually learn to be creative yourself! She is honest and real. Also just great to work with as she is quick to reply to texts, calls, and very accommodating to my schedule. I had an awesome experience with her and would definitely hire her again. THANKS thea and keep doing what you do!

So I only wear black and greys, and very actively resist anything else… but Thea styled me for a fashion show and managed to convince me to change it up and I loved it! I never would have thought I would have given in to something so opposite from my style, especially since my aesthetic is a big part of me and I take it really seriously and personally.
She bases her styling choices based not just on trends but what the person she is styling is also comfortable in and represents. I appreciate how she expanded my horizons. Also her great personality definitely made it all a comfortable experience, as she never pressured me into anything I didn’t want.

Thea has an eye for fashion that the traditional eye can’t see. She know what colors, fabrics and shoes to mix match to blend the perfect look. Her style is so unique and fun, that you know no one will have on your outfit. She’s edgy, fun to be around and always has a smile on her face. She has extreme passion for fashion and it shows.

Thea is absolutely the QUEEN of styling. Her creative mind topped with her free spirited personality makes her a pleasure to work with while handling something as delicate as personal style. She will help pull pieces you have forgotten in your closet and magically make it work with pieces you would never even think of! If you are even considering a stylist, go to Thea! She changed the way I view clothes and I can only add that she will guide you to a new and better dressed you!
If you are in LA or even if you are not, definitely go see Thea. Your style is worth investing in and Thea is worth the investment.

Thea is the re-​wardrobing queen!
I have not be styled by her, per se, but I have seen first hand the effect her work has had on my dear friend who recently moved from NYC to LA. Going from professional to LA chic, Thea has made simple yet impactful suggestions and they have translated amazingly well. She is known to take a simple skirt and somehow turn it into a top! She works her magic with keeping your budget in mind. I thought so much of her talent that I wanted others to know of this gem you have in LA.
If you need help or are stuck on your personal style (or you want to give the best gift to someone special), GO see Thea.
