I like her naturalness but there’s thought and surprise in her outfits. I like her style even though she’s younger. I feel stylish especially because I saw a picture of Alexa Chung in something similar. The casualness of the jeans and the tennis shoes are like when I was a little kid only now I’ve added more of a flair. Description: Dress Crisscross Tie Back Tank Black Med. The lace insert in the back of the blouse adds surprise. Shop Womens Black size M Midi at a discounted price at Poshmark. We met for lunch at Della Fattoria in Petaluma and I asked her to explain how her style words were being represented in her outfit.Įven though my blouse and my handbag are vintage, I feel the outfit is modern with the cut of the jeans and the tennis shoes. Here’s a sampling of words in Debra’s style recipe: It’s like going on a treasure hunt and finding the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. They have distinct meaning to her and her alone. I listen for the words the client resonates with. I’ll ask her, “Would you feel flattered if people used these words to describe you and your style?”Ī pretty blouse has a surprise in the backĮverybody’s style recipe is different. Using the language of clothes, I’ll design outfits so these words would naturally come out of someone’s mouth to describe her. During the interview I gather up all the clues I received from her and come up with what I like to call a style recipe.
I want to know so I can dress her so she’s reflecting her true self. My goal is to ask questions (and go off script when warranted) in order to get a true vision of what’s in a woman’s heart.
This appointment can get real intimate real fast as we explore old patterns around shopping and getting dressed, places a client may feel stuck, the things that may be holding her back. Kudos to Debra for being so open in front of complete strangers. My colleagues wanted me to demonstrate that essential first appointment with a client which, with me, is all about style.

My friend Debra Ruff was kind enough to allow me to do a style interview with her in front of 17 colleagues in June when I hosted a professional retreat for image consultants from all over the world. A great “meeting a friend for lunch” outfit
