Sample Spring/Summer Wishlist, Aileen

Client: Aileen

Style: Classic, Mix of Masculine + Feminine, Edgy

Body type: Tall Long Waisted Diamond

Career: VP, Biotech

Lifestyle: Aileen has a very full life. She’s a leader in biotech who also coaches and mentors at her company. She now has a hybrid schedule balancing time in the office with time working from home, she also periodically attends work related events. Married with two teen boys and a demanding career she needed pieces that make getting dressed easy in pieces that feel authentic to her. Whether she’s traveling internationally, heading to work or running around town, it’s essential that she feels comfortable in every piece.

Approach: It was time to do a major overhaul. Years of struggling to understand what pieces would flatter her frame and communicate her style, Aileen’s collection was an array of pieces that didn’t feel like her at all. She wanted easy options that helped her feel great in her body, aligned with her values and her authentic style. The top priority was listening to her and ensuring that she felt comfortable taking a big risk. She was nervous, but when her Uber Wishlist arrived, it was clear that we were on the right track. Over three years later, we continue to collaborate on additional lists (loungewear, accessories and clothing) and new outfit ideas. Initially, she was lost, overwhelmed and confused. Now, she shares brands with me and is a style icon.

As per usual, this has been the time of my life. Because you are an existing client, we’re going very light on the commentary in favor of more options. Off we go!

The first white blazer option. Knowing that sizes go quickly and we’ve got some flexibility with awesomeness, here’s the first suggestion.

Walter Baker Phelps Peak Lapel Double-Breasted Blazer. Nordstrom Rack. Was: $268. Now: $89. Woven. 75% rayon, 25% linen (Ivory)

Just right for warmer weather, you’ll wear this one on repeat. Also, we’re leaning into the masculine pieces as they can be paired with your new shorts and other existing feminine choices, when you are feeling that.

Forever Denim Short Sleeve Shirt. Available in two colors. Universal Standard. $94. 98% Cotton
2% Elastane.

How cool is this with that combo? Otherwise, I really included it for sunny days, especially when you are heading to the pool. Love this company, too.
