Catherine is a genius!…read more Our relationship started thanks to a generous 40th birthday present from my mom. Catherine did a phone consultation and then came to my house to review my closet. She was understanding and non judgmental looking at all my outdated fashion, and helped me see outfit pairings I would never have thought of (navy and gold, who knew?!) and say farewell to things that were tired or ill fitting. That helped us make an agenda for our shopping trip which she carefully timed around big sales, mindful of helping me stay within the budget we'd identify. When I arrived she had a whole rack ready for me to start trying on, and we made swift work of finding a whole new look for me to use day to day. She got special treatment with the store clerks and alterations folks because of a good reputation and they treated me like a queen. Our relationship continues long beyond that first trip -- she checks in on my alterations and offers solid advice on accessories and purchases when I ask. I'm really glad we met and know I'll be recommending her to friends and going to Catherine for a long time.

5 hours, $525 paid and all I have to show for myself is one $200 blouse I'll probably return…read more I have very minimal clothes (less than 100 pieces--only 5 pairs of shoes!) and Catherine spent TWO HOURS going through my closet. She did make one good tip "you have too many sweaters and no blouses" but when she left I felt no better about my clothes or how to put them together than before she came. She didn't put ONE outfit together for me, or for my husband, who has maybe 50 items (3 pairs of shoes). I then went shopping with her for 3 hours. I had expected to buy blouses, since she said I needed those, but we spent an hour on jeans (already have 3 expensive pairs that fit well) and I had to keep nagging and redirecting her to blouses over and over. She even started showing me sweaters at one point -- even after saying I owned too many (8). And despite spending TWO HOURS on my 100 items, she clearly learned nothing about my tastes or preferences. She kept grabbing high collar, super buttoned up shirts (I'm young and free spirited), lots of high wasted "mom" pants. Most of the items were too short in the pants or sleeves (I'm 5'7"), and Catherine would insist that it didn't matter. But why would I pay $200-$400 for something that is too short? (Every item she selected for me was OVER $100.) And when I would put something on and ask her, "what would I wear this with?" she would tell me something that I did not already have or was even in the dressing room. She also kept insisting I needed to buy black black and more black. I don't like black. I live in LA. Most people don't wear black except at night... and how good of a stylist can you be in you just want to dress everyone in all black? Frustrated, I asked to spend the last 30 minutes focused on my husband (she'd made one suggestion for him--he needed "fancy designer sneakers with a rocker pattern" and a grey jacket to complete his wardrobe) and she started picking up all these grey bland booties. I finally waved her off. She was nice, and I think she did try, but I wish I could get a refund. I feel very VERY taken advantage of.

Lissette did a great trim and more importantly taught me how to manage my curls. Even my husband noticed how beautiful the curls were. Wow. Better still, this morning when I got up to sleep tossed hair I did all the tricks Lissette taught me and was ready for the day...no frizzies, no need to pull it into a pony tell to hide the mess. Just perfect curls and beautiful shine. The Fringe Hair Lounge is welcoming, very clean and everyone is warm and welcoming.

My wife and I are not the best at staying current with fashion trends or getting rid of clothes…read morewhen new ones are purchased. I was looking for a Christmas gift for my wife, primarily to get control of her closest which was no longer functional. I found Rita on Yelp, and she was patient with various emails as I asked about whether or not this would be a good gift, whether I should surprise my wife (Rita just shows up), etc. We also had to reschedule a few times and Rita was very accommodating. She has been awesome at assisting my wife with getting rid of so much stuff, she can actually use her closest again, and display certain nicer items. My wife is also excited to go shopping with Rita for some new items. Rita noticed my closet during my wife's renovation and said she could help me too! Highly recommend! Thanks Rita!

One of the most stressful aspects of my professional life is looking polished and elegant when I…read moremeet with clients, deliver a presentation or make a media appearance. Vanessa Valiente has made this so much easier. She helped me tremendously by reimagining my wardrobe for work and leisure. She even assembled a minimalistic, yet attractive and practical wardrobe for a recent trip to Africa, where I knew that I would experience somewhat primitive conditions. Vanessa is a gifted stylist and image consultant. Any woman who wants to feel confident about her appearance, without the stress of endless searching for the right clothing and accessories, would be wise to invest in her services. She is a treasure.

She has always been spot-on with her recommendations and is a delight to work with. She is the consummate professional. Vanessa understands my specific body type and lifestyle. Of course she is always prompt for my at home sessions and I LOVE when we do sessions in store. She arrives at the store before I do, so by the time I get there the dressing room is filled with items for me to try on. I always get compliments on my "style" and believe me, it's only because of Vanessa's guidance. I can't recommend her highly enough.

She's also quite honest and doesn't hold her opinions back if she feels you're too attached to something that doesn't look good on you or is out of fashion.

If you're considering working with a stylist, definitely schedule a consultation with Carrie! I…read morewould 100% recommend working with her. I am 28 and wanted to feel more confident in what I was wearing and stop having clothes as a source of stress or confusion. I tried to learn alone with things like Stitch Fix, browsing Pinterest or using other free online resources...but it was a game changer working with Carrie and saved me a lot of time trying to figure things out on my own. Style/fashion/clothes is something that used to stress me out so much. While working with Carrie, I not only gained confidence in my wardrobe and reduced future stress when going to any event (or even with every day clothing decisions/being on zoom, etc), I also I felt like I got a personal class on fashion! I learned what colors look the best on me, what kinds of clothing (shape, material, etc.) I like the best and WHY. This makes it so much easier for me to make decisions about clothing in the future, as well. Carrie was so great to work with!! I feel so set up for the foreseeable future and would definitely work with her again in the future years when I need a wardrobe refresh :)

Sophie worked with me on a closet assessment and re-organization and we went shopping once. The…read moreexperience was great! I believe working with her will save me money and headaches when finding something to wear for work and events. First, Sophie showed me how to put things that I already have together, so I don't waste money buying new things when I could mix and match what I already own. Second, she gave me advice to figure out which pieces are flattering and which pieces are not. Getting all the junk out of my closet helped me to see that I have a lot of things I like. I think it can often feel like there's nothing to wear when you can't see the good pieces through the stuff you don't like to wear. When we were shopping, Sophie got a sense of my style right away, and she didn't impose a different style on me. She made recommendations about which pieces I would use more often--what was worth the money. Shopping with her saved me time, because she can quickly spot what's good and what's not in a big rack of clothes, and she knows which brands run small or big--which means fewer things to try on. Finally, Sophie has a really nice and professional demeanor. Thanks, Sophie!

She educates you on why things aren't working for you and why others do. We went shopping yesterday and I was not a fan of shopping in stores until yesterday.

She comes with a plan, and while going through my closet, learned what styles I was looking for. She is simple A-MAZING! Thank you, Sophie Mae. I'll be in touch.

The DONATION CENTER is located in the back of the Salvation Army store. It was our first time…read morecoming to this Salvation Army location. We were actually referred to by Goodwill. Goodwill said to come here to drop off mattresses... WHEN YOU ARRIVE you have to drive around the cones and wait at the STOP SIGN until the car in front of you has has been helped... SUNDAY AFTERNOON: There was only one car in front of us! When it was our turn: a young man said WE DON'T ACCEPT MATTRESSES. It was a foldable TWIN MATTRESS. It seemed like he just wanted us to not donate anything here. Another older guy came out to confirm the same thing. I asked if they accept pillows and blankets and they said YES! I'm not sure if it's because it's TEMECULA but, I recall going to another Salvation Army in Pasadena and the people there were really friendly and welcoming! Mostly seniors or veterans...
