Personal Shopping For Men
You might not love to shop or don’t have the time to do it, which is why I focus on making the process quick and painless. My personal philosophy is that you should rarely pay full price for clothing. Will I go to higher end department stores and boutiques? Absolutely, I truly enjoy it. But I am also very comfortable shopping at discount stores where you get the same quality brands for less money.
The savings from the clothing offsets the cost of working with a stylist, and I promise that you will be pleasantly surprised at the amount of reasonably priced, quality items you have added to your wardrobe at the end of our shopping experience.
How My Personal Shopping Service Works
The Pre-Shop
I make the clothes shopping process effortless by arriving 1-2 hours before the appointment to do a pre-shop. During this time, I pre- pull items and find the sizes, styles, and outfits we discussed in the initial image consultation. I then arrange them in a dedicated fitting room where I display each piece for your evaluation. This saves you time, effort, and frustration and makes the whole shopping process very easy and efficient.
The Shopping Appointment
When you arrive you will have a collection of clothes personally curated for you. The first step is to evaluate the selected styles and remove the items that don’t work for you. Next, you will try on the clothing. I keep the process efficient, like an assembly line, making quick decisions, assessing each item for the best fit with your body type, style that most represents you, and color based on your skin tone. If something doesn’t work, we will discard it or I replace it with a new color or size from the selling floor and bring it to the fitting room. We will then narrow down the items to our top picks. Ultimately, you make all of the final decisions on what to purchase. Over the past 10 years I have optimized and perfected this method for an incredibly fast and efficient process. Even the most unwilling men agree on how easy this is and some even admit it was fun!
The Closing
During the appointment, I am tracking and organizing all of the clothes to purchase. Some will need tailoring, to be ordered or are fine to buy as is. If a tailor is needed, I will communicate what alterations need to be completed, to ensure the best possible fit. You don’t not need worry about anything or pay attention to the details, as I have everything under control and know exactly what needs to be done with each piece. I will also take pictures of each item you purchase, in order to keep a record of all of the brands and sizes that fit you best. At check out, my working relationship with the store personnel expedites the process, so the wait is minimal and you can be on your way.
