Candace is nothing short of amazing. She helped me in early February and together we went through my entire closet. Most importantly, she helped me narrow in on my vision and clothing style, and how the two would intersect. She also educated me on the different brands and how to tell good quality clothes from mass-produced clothing where you're paying a high price just for the brand. 8 months later and I have been slowly curating my ideal closet based on that initial consultation, and her lessons always run through my head whenever I go shopping. I also really appreciate that she's always available on her Facebook group as well whenever I have a question for a continuing education! As someone who has always struggled with fashion, my consultation with Candace has been incredibly pivotal in helping me to express myself that way I've always wanted to! read more

It was honestly more than I could have hoped for. Candace is exceptional in what she does and clearly enjoys it. She is very detailed and creative and I would recommend her to anyone I know who is looking to spruce up their wardrobe for a special occasion or even just to change their daily style. We started the day reviewing my old clothes. She showed me why some clothes weren't working for my body type and kept the ones that fit. From there, she made a list of clothes I needed for my lifestyle and where to go to find them within my budget. Usually shopping days are very stessful, but with Candace's guidance and new education she provided, I am rocking it! Thank you Candace - 10 stars if I could! read more

I don't even know where to begin...that's why it's taken me a while to write this review even though I promised myself I would because she is worth the time and effort to do it...Candace is AMAZING!!! We gifted our daughter Style by Candace's services for her 18th birthday...our daughter was thrilled (yay!!! and a little bit nervous at first!). Candace was genuinely so invested and cared so much to make it an excellent experience from beginning to end. And she is not just caring...she KNOWS her stuff!!!! And she works SO hard to please everyone while gently teaching and directing them towards items that will make them look and feel their best. And just when we thought we couldn't be happier that we took a chance on Candace she came back to our house to take pictures of every single thing for her Look Book! It was above and beyond what we hoped for. We found Candace on Yelp (or maybe googled first...I can't remember...but then I read all of the Yelp reviews I could about her...and those reviews are so accurate. She emailed back so quickly and we started our adventure. My words can not express my gratitude and happiness that we were able to work with Candace!!!!! Our daughter is armed now not only with a lovely and versatile wardrobe but also knowledge and tools to help her continue to dress to look and feel her best...true success!! Thank you wonderful Candace for your sharing your amazing talent, compassionate heart, and so much hard work with us!!!! read more

Style by Candace is so amazing, excellent at her job, professional, and friendly. If you're aiming to look more polished and professional she can help. If you are plus size, do not hesitate, she knows her stuff. The details for my wardrobe refresh: For the closet edit, we went through my entire closet getting rid of a lot, but in a really thoughtful way. For everything we trashed she told me why it wasn't working for me and it was a REVELATION. I now know what to look for when shopping for clothes that work for me. Even right after the closet edit, my style improved. I had new ways to wear the clothes I already owned and what was left were only things that worked for me and made me feel professional and put together. For the shopping appointments, Candace brought items to me since I am plus sized and do not have the greatest in store options. I felt like an actual princess or like I was in a movie montage. So many fantastic options in multiple colors, sizes, and cuts. It was things I never would have chosen for myself but can't imagine being without now. She left me with a super well rounded professional wardrobe that I have been getting compliments on for months since our sessions. She was under my set budget as well. Really over the top great! A note about Candace helping me as a plus size client. Clothes shopping can be a mine field sometimes and Candace was absolutely perfect at helping navigate. She made me feel comfortable and never never once did she seem to be limited. Having worked a long time towards body positivity and acceptance I'm very sensitive to this topic and if you are too, then Candace is the right person to call. read more

Candace helped me find a specific pair of sunglasses for my boss when I thought they'd discontinued the line. She was so polite and easy to talk to on the phone, and was forthright about her time - she was busy helping another client at the moment, but she'd look into it and get back to me. I thought I'd hear back in a week, but in LESS THAN TWENTY FOUR HOURS, she'd emailed me back with the exact sunglasses that literally no one else had heard of, let alone been able to find. I was FLOORED! It was clear to me from this whole interaction that Candace is not only a dedicated professional, she's also excellent at her job. Could not recommend her more highly! read more

I've known about the talents of Candace for some time now but last month I finally put it to the test! I'm a business professional in the fashion industry. I want my look to be updated and age appropriate. First the closet edit- Her rules are simple-the session successful. It took us a few hours to clear through years of ill fitting clothes I had kept(for one day?). I tried on some of my clothes, she asked me a bunch of questions (why/what did I like about that piece). Then off she went- until our date at the mall. We went to a total of 3 stores, she had already picked out and placed my new clothes on hold. I tried it all on, she made it so easy(wouldn't even let me hang my stuff up). No looking around!! Just fitting room, then to the register!! She is also price conscious and knows all about price matching to online prices.. We even had time to grab a food court meal together. But wait, there's more...she has pictures of everything I own- so she put a million options together for me so although I have a third of my old closet, I never look redundant. It's now a month later and I am feeling so fantastic every day. I get dressed quickly and easily and even have time to accessorize. She has checked in with me several times and we've talked about filling in some gaps in my new and improved closet! I'm loving life...my friends and family notice the change and I'm getting a lot of positive feedback. Looking back, I don't know why I waited so long!! Candy- Thank you for your honest and spot on assessment and for helping me look cute and put together every day!! The psych help was also appreciated... you are insightful, caring and authentic! read more

I had the best experience working with Candace. I had spent years going through the hassle of online shopping and then the inevitable returns. I tried buying from trendy boutiques but still never felt like I had the clothes I wanted. Could never find anything I liked at the mall. Using a personal stylist felt like a splurge but after so much wasted time and money doing this on my own I felt it was time to hire a professional. I'm so glad I received a referral to Candace! Candace delivered in every way. From the beginning, she was extremely responsive and "got" me. She made the process of getting rid of the old and in with the new painless and fun. Best of all, all of the clothes she recommended for me (I ended up with over 15 new items) were way cheaper than I usually spend off the rack but the same high quality designers I like. I now have a link she sent me of tons of outfit ideas that I click on when I don't know what to wear and feel so much more confident in my clothes. Thank you Candace, you exceeded my expectations! read more

Candace is amazing! I've never felt particularly confident in the fashion department, but she showed me that it doesn't have to be complicated. I'm someone who enjoys more of a clean, simple look and Candace was on the same page as me the whole time. She really made an effort to pull items she knew I'd like, but also included a few "bold" items just for fun, and I ended up going with some of them! She never tried to force any styles or trends on me that I wasn't into and always aimed to feature my best assets. Everything she pulled was within my budget and very reasonable. We went through my closet together and I was surprised to see things I already had take on a new life when she paired them with a few new items. Now when I don't know what to wear, I go the virtual wardrobe she built for me and I'm on the right track! She always listened to my preferences but helped to push me out of my comfort zone a little bit. This is exactly what I needed - thank you Candace! read more

I feel so fortunate to have found Candace for my first experience with a personal stylist. I wanted help creating a capsule wardrobe that was minimalist, environmental and ethical, and flexible for work and casual. I wanted a lot of things while also not have much of a clue what my personal style was. The environmental impact of the fashion industry paralyzed me from making any purchases because I wanted to make the right choice and have pieces that would work for a long time. I had a really good experience working with Candace, below are some of the things I really appreciated: - Candace has a pretty easy to use website that allowed us to do it all remotely. This worked well for me because of COVID but also because I travel a lot. The website let me see her selections for me and we were both able to comment on each piece. She also put outfits together on the website. - Candace put a lot of time and effort into helping me shop sustainably. It's not easy to find sustainable brands that are also fashionable. She also helped me better understand the various issues around what sustainable fashion means (labor, materials, energy consumption). - Candace really listens and tries to get to know you as a person to find clothes that are most consistent with the image you're trying to project. I trusted her opinions and felt that her selections reflected well what I wanted. I didn't even know what I wanted initially, but this process helped me better understand my personal style. - Candace was easy to work with and very relatable. I'm just a normal person with an unglamorous life who wants clothes that look put together. I have been trying to shop on my own for years and always ended up with pieces that I didn't like and hardly wore. Sorry this review is so long. I just wanted to share in case it was useful for anyone else who's thinking about doing this. I highly recommend Candace! read more

Candace is lovely. She understands fashion, body styles, and budget! She knows the secrets to making you look good without spending a fortune. Her tips and tricks for vacation packing were wonderful. I would recommend her services to anyone who wants to look their best. read more

I'm not a big review giver, which probably makes me a taker for those that make the time to give feedback. Sorry people ! I wasn't asked to do this review either, (I'm not a big fan of that either), but with all that said, Candace is amazing! She asks the right questions, listens, evaluates your situation and brings solutions. Ask her for my cell and I'm more than happy to tell you about my experience. If you walk in your closet and say, "I have nothing to wear", call Candace. read more

Candace is outstanding at what she does!!!I've never been crazy about shopping and never really knew what to buy. She's changed that for me. After she helped me with my closet and evaluated my style, she took me shopping and picked items she thought I'd like before I even arrived at the mall. Shopping with Candace was fun, easy and she has great insight, not only about clothing but also what may work for her clients. She taught me how to size clothing for my figure and, interestingly, pointed out that I like detail (like lace embellishment, unique buttons, etc.) in clothing. I now feel well put together and several people at work have complimented me on how I look. read more

In one word, Style by Candace is awesome. I used the Sort, Shop, & Style option and I was completely blown away by the stylist, Candace. She was efficient and helpful going through my closet, helping me get rid of pieces that needed to go and explaining what looks good and why. She also gave helpful tips and was easy to work with the whole time. Candace was able to get me an entire new wardrobe and did way under budget. She also helped me pick out a couple of new suits. I still contact her about outfits to try. I appreciated working with her and all her advice. Candace has a great ability to making shopping and styling a fun and easy-going experience. read more

I had a great experience with Candace and am only giving her 4 stars simply because I don't have anything else to compare her with, and I typically don't give 5 stars for anything :). This is the first time I've tried a personal shopper and I chose Candace because of all the other great reviews she had. Normally I'm suspicious of someone or something on Yelp with all perfect ratings, but now I can see why she came so highly recommended. She's incredibly personable and detail-oriented. She's direct, but polite - which I think we could all use more of in this world. She talked me through each decision as we audited my closet so I could learn how to pick out future items that I wouldn't regret later. Then we talked through my wardrobe needs, scheduled a day for shopping, and she went early to pre-shop for me so we didn't waste any time together. Efficiency makes my heart sing! We had a lot of luck shopping - she picked out items that I probably never would have considered, and was surprised to find that I loved them after trying them on. She then came back for a third appointment, in which she took photos of my clothes (which, in all honesty I probably could have done myself and saved her a trip!), and then talked through any questions I had about integrating the new clothes with the old. Lastly, she created an online "Lookbook" where she arranged outfits and selected recommendations for shoes, which we didn't get a chance to look at in our shopping trip. After I worked with the new outfits and shopped a bit more on my own (implementing her lessons), I reached out again with a few questions and asked for her feedback on what I had done. She immediately responded and not only answered my questions, but added additional outfits to my online Lookbook that integrated the new pieces I had uploaded! All in all, Candace helped me reach my goal of creating a wardrobe that's classy and dynamic (professional and casual), while helping me feel more confident about choosing the right clothes for me. She was a pleasure to work with and I hope to work with her again in the future! read more

Candace is amazing! She squeezed me into her schedule last minute to create a capsule wardrobe for travel and then a big move. She first came over to purge my closet with me. I realized I was only wearing maybe 7% of my wardrobe anyway. There were just so many things I had bought in the past year that I've never even worn and know I never will! It was hard for me to definitively part with these pieces alone, so I had Candace make the final call and then instructed me on what was too big on me anyway! I've totally been buying the wrong sizes of clothes! She then shopped and brought over clothes that perfectly suited my taste and size with a few "out on a limb" items (some I kept, not all). I'm so happy I was able to have her skilled eye pair things together and now have a perfectly small wardrobe, full of things I'll actually be wearing! Had I engaged her services last year, I could have paid for her services and gotten a beautiful wardrobe twice for the price of all the clothes I've just purged full of stuff I've never worn. read more

I was looking for a personal shopper/stylist for my wife and Candace's name came up on my Yelp search. Her reviews were incredible, so I decided to message her and give her a shot. We had a great conversation over the phone, and she seemed very knowledgeable and motivated, so I decided to try her out. My wife ended up loving her and had a great time shopping with her and getting a whole new wardrobe. Candace was also great about being patient with her needs and catering to her style and price points. I highly recommend her to any husbands out there looking for a unique gift for their wives. read more

I never thought I would be someone that would hire a personal stylist. I was someone that liked the convenience of shopping for clothes at Target and Old Navy. Last year, I was promoted to an executive position, which meant more client meetings. The cheap and convenient clothes I had amassed weren't going to cut it. I found Candace after research stylists in the Los Angeles area and decided to make the investment. It was worth every penny! I chose to do the Wardrobe Refresh. Not only was the experience so much fun, but it was also very educational. I learned the importance of quality over quantity. Candace gave me lots of shopping tips, such as what days of the week are best for sales. Now I have a wardrobe that I love and clothes that fit and flatter my figure. She created a Lookbook with my clothes and accessories, which saves me so my time when I get ready in the morning. I no longer dread picking out clothes for business meetings. I highly recommend Style by Candace. I can't wait to use her services again. read more

My husband surprised me on an anniversary trip to OC with a styling session with Candace. Post baby #2, I wasn't feeling very confident, and lived in leggings and big shirts. Candace made me feel comfortable and confident in my skin, and steered me towards an edgy, trendy wardrobe. She taught me how to dress for my body type, and to embrace my new body. She went above my expectations and took pride in spending extra time with me to make sure I was satisfied with my new looks. It was like shopping with a hilarious best friend! She is professional, smart, and exudes contagious confidence. I recommend her to anyone who is looking to revamp their style and learn a thing or two about fashion while having a great time! read more

Candace is my new secret weapon, but she is so good I have to share it with the world. She has made me feel 10x more confident in my clothes and people have already been telling me they can see a difference in my style. I plan to work with Candace many more times in the future. read more

Candace is brilliant! I never thought I would be excited again about getting dressed up everyday. I thought I knew what style works for my body but after getting professional feedback from Candace, I'm so glad I have a new wardrobe. She has a genuine talent for what looks good and what doesn't. Literally, every time I wear something that she picked for me, I would be complimented. I love her! read more

I loved working with Candace! I found her through a yelp search. I've never used a personal shopper before but had a few events to attend and was tired of wearing the same old thing. I also do not like shopping. What a GEM Candace is!! She made shopping a fun and exciting experience. She is such a professional and very knowledgeable about fashion. She put together some beautiful outfits that were perfect for my upcoming events. I can't wait to spend more time with her and have her revamp my closet. I highly recommend Candace for any wardrobe needs!! She's the sweetest. read more

Candace is wonderful! She cleaned out my closet, chose outfits that I didn't think went together, and suggested staple pieces that were missing from my current wardrobe that I wear almost daily. (She found me some Loubie's and an All Saints leather moto jacket for half the price!!!) I'm assuming cause she's an expert shopper and knows where to find deals, so technically, she saved me money, lol. What is more important, is that she actually listens to what you like, and chooses outfits that fit your style, while finding pieces that I didn't think I could pull off. She's worth every penny! read more

I engaged Candace to help me select some suits and related clothing items and she was fantastic. She made the whole process way more efficient and a lot more fun. We ended up saving some some money and she put together some additions to my wardrobe that look great and that I feel great about. I recommend her highly! read more

I scheduled time with Candace to do closet editing. I expected this experience to be very overwhelming, given that I've been accumulating clothes for almost 15 years and felt guilty giving away stuff that had been hardly worn. I also did not know what's in, what's out, and what I should keep just in case it comes back in style. I was pleasantly surprised with how EFFICIENT Candace was. She right away divided all my clothes into items that must go, items that are keepers, and ones she wanted me try on and decide accordingly. She gave me suggestions on what would look good with what and gave advice on what's flattering and what's not for my body shape. 2 hours later my closet was transformed from dysfunctional to functional. It was a fun, easy, and enlightening experience. She even helped me pack and box the clothes that needed to go. I feel relieved to get rid of stuff that I wasn't using. I can actually see everything in my closet. I look forward to shopping with Candace to replace the clothes I gave away to charity. Thanks Candace! I would definitely do this again! read more

I reached out to Candace to help me revamp my closet. It was such a pleasant experience from beginning to end. She is so knowledgeable about what works for different body types while still keeping your style in mind. She took time to hear what I like and what I would feel comfortable wearing. I loved working with Candace and would definitely recommend her to anyone is looking for help with their closet/ clothing. read more

I used her "Sort, Shop and Style" service and was absolutely thrilled. I am a busy working gal who always wanted to update and improve my wardrobe but never had the time, energy or knowledge of where to even start. Candace was incredibly efficient, kind and personable. She took the time to learn about my lifestyle and what works best for me. I used another personal shopper before and found Candace's method incredibly personable. Sorting was an eye-opening experience--discovering that nearly 50% of wardrobe was ill-fitting, out of date or worn out. Shopping was an absolute delight. Candace pre-shopped for me and made the outing efficient. I learned what is best for my body type and lifestyle (lesson: don't go by the size on the tag, go by the fit!). Lastly, our Sorting session was by far my favorite. She was able to talk me through why certain pieces go well together vs others. We put pieces together I otherwise would have never thought of. After going to work the next week with my new style in hand, I received countless compliments. I am now excited to shop and know exactly what to look for because of Candace. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! read more

Candace took the pain away ...she truly has a gift and enjoys what she does. I absolutely hate shopping but enjoyed the fruits of her labor. She brought me tons of things to try on and see and was very accommodating around my busy life schedule of a suits during the week and softball coaching attire in the evening. She found me casual evening attire that looked and felt great and I can't wait to see what she has in store for me next time we do this. Awesome job Candace and thanks for making me look good with much less pain!!!! read more

After a substantial weight loss (and a closet of clothing that didn't fit me anymore) I needed professional help to rebuild my closet to reflect the style I've always wanted but didn't think I could pull off with my size. Working with Candace helped me to expand my understanding of what works for my body type, and also how to mentally break through limitations I thought I was bound by. She has perfected the art of pushing your beyond your fashion comfort zone, and coming out on the other side a total believer! Her services were very personalized and professional. I live overseas and she worked with me remotely to understand my needs, edit my closet, shop and fit my updated wardrobe. I no longer look at my closet thinking "I have nothing to wear." I see a whole set of options that are polished, updated and super cute! This was literally life changing. read more

LOVED working with Candace! She came over and went through my closet. She helped me get rid of stuff I needed to (although it was hard to say goodbye!) She helped me edit my closet and define my style. She put outfits together for me and maximized my wardrobe. She put pieces together that I never would have thought of and they looked great!!! Opened my eyes to what I'm really missing. I LOVED everything she bought for me. She has an eye for style, color, and complimenting my body type. A lot of the items were on sale. She listened to me and helped me achieve my goal. I highly recommend her services for anyone who wants to be more confident and fashionable. read more

I loved working with Candace. I chose her Sort, Shop and Style package. Right from the beginning, she was very responsive to my email inquiries and questions, and considerate of my budget considerations. She was flexible around my work schedule, and did a great job pre-shopping so that we could maximize our time trying on clothes while we were out shopping. She listened to what types of clothes I was looking for, while also challenging me to get out of my comfort zone a bit as well. And she was fun to shop with, I felt comfortable with her immediately, like she was another one of my sisters. :) I just wore my first outfit that she put together for me and immediately got compliments. Can't wait to wear the rest of my new purchases! I would absolutely choose to work with her again, and would highly recommend her to others. Thanks Candace! read more

I used Candace to help my 15 year old daughter find her style and take her shopping. She was GREAT! My daughter loved her and they had a great day shopping for reasonably priced, age appropriate clothes and left me out of the drama! Will definitely use her again! Thanks Candace! read more

I had Candace come over and help filter out my closet and help give me some fashion advice. I loved working with her. She was easy and fun to work with and I felt so comfortable with her. She helped me let go of a lot of stuff I was just holding onto, but really couldn't use anymore. Then she personally shopped for me. I loved what she chose for me and those are always my go to pieces. She also returned anything I didn't want. It was great having a personal fashion stylist. read more

Candace is the perfect stylist! She listens, has great style and knows exactly where to shop. Every piece I have ever gotten with her has been a perfect addition to my style and closet. Not only is she a great stylist but she is also a delight to work with! I cannot recommend her enough! read more

I am so happy that I spoke with Candace and she offered me the best advice in terms of what would be an elegant and flattering look for an upcoming wedding. I can't wait to wear the dress she recommended. She is so personable and also very knowledgeable in her line of work. I give her five stars and two thumbs up!! read more

Candace is amazing! She really helped me find my right size after I lost weight. I really enjoyed working with her. She helped me re-do my closet in regards to my clothes for work. She helped me look my best for the office with excellent styles that could be used for both work and after work events. All of her choices were very professional and just what I needed. She has a great sense of style. She helped me get out of my comfort zone and try new things! I was so glad to have worked with her. You will not be disappointed if you work with her! read more

Candance is great! She helped our daughter Margo select clothes for her upcoming movie as well as her everyday clothes. Margo (15) loves her! Don't waste your time with anyone else! Candace is the best!! read more
