Style Coaching helps you understand why certain clothing works for you so you can make confident choices in your wardrobe. Rather than telling you what to wear, the process focuses on teaching you how clothing design, proportion, color, and lifestyle work together so you can build a wardrobe that feels natural and authentic.

A stylist typically selects clothing or outfits for you. Style Coaching focuses on helping you develop the skills to recognize what works for you on your own. The goal isn’t just to create a few outfits — it’s to help you understand your personal style so you can make confident decisions every day.

All new clients begin with Style Discovery, a two-hour session where we explore the principles of clothing design and how they work with your body, energy, and lifestyle. This session creates the foundation for any future work together.

If you’ve previously worked with Ladybird, your experience may already give you a strong foundation. If you’re not sure where to begin, feel free to contact me or schedule a free initial consultation. We can talk through your past experience and decide the best place to start.

Every client is different. Some people gain a lot from just the Style Discovery session, while others prefer ongoing coaching as they refine their wardrobe over time. During your consultation, we can talk about what might make the most sense for you.

That’s actually one of the most common reasons clients reach out. Style Coaching is designed to help you uncover and develop a style that feels natural to you.

No—not in a prescriptive way. Instead of telling you what to wear, I’ll help you understand what works for you so you can make better decisions with more clarity and confidence. And I’ll be there to guide you through that process.
