Personal Stylist Testimonials
Working with Carol has been a game-changer for my style and my confidence. My only regret is not hiring her sooner! I am someone who HATES shopping and putting together outfits. Carol made the process enjoyable, easy and FUN. I now own pieces that fit perfectly, are styles I wouldn’t have picked out on my own, and that I can wear in my everyday life. She also educated me in the process, so I’m better prepared to choose colors, cuts, and patterns going forward. I also had some changes to my shape so nothing in my closet fit me. Carol helped me find pieces that would accentuate parts of my shape I wanted to play up, and minimize those I didn’t want to draw attention to. Carol worked within my budget and found beautiful pieces from stores I already buy from. Plus, her process can’t be beat. She sets you up with a custom portal where you can upload what you have in your wardrobe already, then collaborate with her to put together new looks. She is responsive, knowledgeable, and a joy to work with. Can’t recommend her enough! will definitely be hiring her again in the future.

After each of our sessions, I felt much more confident and at ease about the choices in my closet. I also feel more up to date about what I’m wearing, and I’m more confident that my look is current but not overly trendy.

Carol is a ROCK STAR! Both as my Personal Style Consultant and Life Coach, she has helped me transition between different jobs, a new home, and a complete change in lifestyle. Our work together began in my closet, many years ago. Overwhelmed by too much clothing, her expertise helped me pare down my wardrobe yet have more fabulous outfits than I ever thought possible. Years later, when my challenges extended beyond my wardrobe, Carol provided a safe and supportive space as my Life Coach. By asking powerful questions, she invited me to look at things from a perspective that I had not yet considered. She is an amazing listener and is full of wisdom and valuable tools that inspire me to believe in myself and be the best version of me. Carol has helped me become a more beautiful person both inside (Life Coaching!) and out (Personal Style Consultant!). I adore her and can’t recommend her enough for both services.

Working with Carol is like a “permission slip” to help the outside align with the inside.
Melanie V., Empowerment Coach
Carol Davidson is THE expert. I cannot stress how much I would recommend her to anyone, regardless of where they are on their style journey. She is intentional, organized, knowledgeable, hands-on, and wonderful. She made sure I understood all of her terms and explanations, while creating a cozy and safe environment, and took the time to understand our cohesive vision. Styling is so intimate and personal, you want to go with the right person — and that’s Carol! She knows what she’s talking about and is all around one of the best, warmest people.

Carol has an excellent eye for colors, shapes and styles, and she’s gentle but clear in her advice. She did an awesome job both with myself and my young adult daughter. You can’t go wrong with her!

Beyond her technical expertise, Carol’s client service is first-class. As a busy guy with a company to run, everything about working with her has been seamless, smooth, and stress-free. She communicates quickly and is always there to help. Plus the virtual closet/portal makes collaborating and discussing ideas even more efficient and effective, since you have the outfits in front of you as you’re typing. If you asked me “Would you recommend her to someone close to you?” my answer is — “I already have!”
Brian S., Managing Partner
Carol is absolutely phenomenal. She listened to what I wanted and was able to gently nudge some of my bad choices away. I would highly recommend her.

Carol patiently went through all of my clothes and made valuable suggestions on what worked best for me and what didn’t. She’s really great at explaining her rationale, so every decision is a learning opportunity — and she’s great at reminding me that any decision is ultimately mine. Her advice helps not only sort through what I already have, but also guide any further purchase. My professional and personal life require a broad range of fashion choices, and Carol is fantastic at suggesting options appropriate for each circumstance, from major professional presentations to casual weekends roaming around the house. At this last visit, she provided a quick consultation to my husband, with similar professional and personal needs. Her brief consultation provided him with great insights and he is now ready to follow my constant requests to update his wardrobe. I highly recommend Carol for cleaning out our closets while improving and creating a professional image.

The biggest impact and change has been having a cohesive wardrobe and not a random assortment of things. I feel confident that in every situation, I have more than one outfit appropriate for the occasion. Because of Carol’s advice, I don’t spend time trying to “make things work” in my closet. I already have a clear idea of how things fit together. I stress far less about my clothing – particularly for work. Working with Carol has given me such confidence that when I show up to an event or a meeting, pack for a trip, or even just meet a friend, I’m wearing something that “works” and I didn’t have to spend a lot of brain power or emotional energy getting dressed.
