Phase 1: Reflect (InitialConsultation)
“Work with what you’ve got…and flaunt it!”
This first step allows us to discover who you are and what you are all about. Together we learn your body type, colour palette, and budget among other things. We also explore your lifestyle needs, concerns, and style goals in order to create apersonalized, worry-free, and fun experience.
Phase 2: Reduce (Image/Wardrobe Analysis)
“Why is it called a closet? Why would I ever want to hide my possessions behind closed doors?”
The Reduce phase is an instructional and hands-on process to achieve your style goals. We spend time coordinating and accessorizing looks with clothing you already own, discuss style versus trends, divulge pieces you can splurge or save on, and recommend some essential items your wardrobe should not be without.
Next, we detox…
Is walking into your closet like going back in time? Who knew neon lime-yellow acid wash jeans wouldn’t become a wardrobe staple, right? We’re not here to judge but please do let us help you face a new season without looking like a blast from the past! Consider us your fashion fairy godmothers as we provide you with some easy tips and tricks on how to add a few key pieces and accessories to update and freshen up your wardrobe. We will suggest what items to keep and what to toss to help you fill your closet with items that are well-loved and well-worn. In the process, we will even reorganize and de-clutter your closet! This closet and wardrobe detox is an additional step to Reflect, but is also available on its own.
Phase 3: Restore (Personal Shopping)
shop•a•hol•ic |noun|
- A compulsive shopper
- Style Atelier Stylists
“My name is Style Atelier and I am a shopaholic. But I am not ashamed!”
We offer half-day or full-day assisted shopping excursions in Restore. This is where you can apply everything you’ve learned in Reflect and Reduce, and where you get creative with your style rejuvenation or image reinvention. At the end of the day, join us for a little R&R as we review your process to feeling and looking your best. We can also do the shopping and deliver the goods to you if you are unable to join us for this phase.
Are you juggling so many things in your life that you forget if you’ve even brushed your teeth in the morning? Are you looking for alternatives to Seven or True Religion jeans? Are you still mulling over what you should get Uncle Arnie for Christmas this year? We offer personal shopping at its best to meet all your needs. We ensure only quality items are purchased and we also offer tips to help you make smart purchases in the future!
The SA Process
We have created a three-phase process called the Three R’s which will take our client through a program that revamps their image in an all-encompassing manner. We know each person possesses amazing qualities and our goal is to enhance and maximize those traits through the Three R’s. Depending on your personal needs, you can opt for part of the process (each phase stands on its own) or you can join us for the entire cycle for optimum results. Whatever your goals and needs, we will work with you to create a style plan that compliments you best!
Phase 1: Reflect
Phase 2: Reduce + Detox (optional)
Phase 3: Restore
Style Demystified
Fashion and style does not have to be a Sherlock Holmes-worthy mystery and your wardrobe does not have to consist of ill-fitting jeans, drab button-ups, and oversized T-shirts. We work with your individual needs and goals to help you create a refined and sharp look that will reflect and enhance your personality-- as efficiently and painlessly as possible! We have simplified our styling process to provide you with the most comprehensive service:
- Create your profile and design a game plan.
- Take some coaching from us on fit, fabric, and fashion.
- Do some shopping with us (or let us do the shopping for you) to update your wardrobe.
And that’s it-- 3 simple steps to demystify your personal style! Call us today to get started!
Special Event Around the Corner?
Whether it’s an engagement party, a black tie gala, or a nerve-wracking interview for the career of your dreams, we love events and we want to make sure you look exceptional for yours! Depending on your needs, we can work with what you already have or we can help you search for something new.
Events Package Options for Complete Event Pampering
Option 1: After a fit and preference consultation, we do the shopping to find the perfect head to toe outfit for your specific occasion and make any necessary alterations prior to the big day.
Option 2: We can arrange a shopping excursion together to find the best look for your event.
Additional option: In order to relieve any undo stress, we can be present on the day of your event to help you get ready. We can even take care of your hair, make-up, and any additional grooming.
