how it works *
Refine
We start with your closet. Together, we’ll discover what works, what’s worth keeping, and what’s holding you back. This isn’t about purging for the sake of it. It’s about clarity, ease, and understanding the pieces that you actually enjoy wearing and that genuinely fit your life.
Curate
Next, we add only what’s missing. Using my experience in sustainable fashion and online resale, I’ll find high-quality, well-fitting pieces at prices that work for your budget, saving you the endless scrolling and guesswork. I’ll identify pieces you’ll want to keep and wear forever.
Practice
Finally, we’ll use the curated closet we’ve created to build outfits that feel easy, comfortable, and truly confidence-boosting. The focus isn’t on something new every time. It’s on combinations you’ll reach for again and again because you’ll feel like yourself when you wear them.
my offerings
I offer a range of wardrobe services tailored to your needs and lifestyle. If you’re local to Humboldt County, in-person styling and shopping appointments may be possible. For clients outside the area, I provide as many services as possible virtually, so distance doesn’t get in the way of working together.
Closet Refinement
Clarify. Simplify. Revive.
Together we’ll thoughtfully examine your existing wardrobe, identify what works, and remove what doesn’t. The goal is a closet that’s easier to navigate, filled with pieces you actually want to wear, and organized to make getting dressed effortless.
Offered in person or virtually by video call (FaceTime, Zoom, Google Meet)
1–2 hour session: $75-150
3–4 hour deep edit: $225–$300
Personal Sourcing
High-quality pieces, bespoke curation.
First I’ll assemble a mood board based on our initial conversations. We will identify specific gaps in your current wardrobe and I will carefully select secondhand and/or sustainable items to add to the mix. With over 10 years of online resale experience, I can vet quality, fit, style, and value, and sometimes even negotiate the best possible price on your behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
No. In fact, we start with what you already own. A big part of Dressing Practice is refining and rediscovering your existing wardrobe. When we do add pieces, I prioritize secondhand and sustainable options whenever possible, so the purchases you do make don’t contribute to the over-production of the fast fashion clothing industry.
-
You’re in the right place. If shopping feels overwhelming, time-consuming, or stressful, I handle the legwork for you. I’ll source thoughtfully, vet quality and fit, and narrow things down to options that actually make sense for your life, so you can enjoy the results without the hassle.
-
You don’t have to know. We’ll explore your preferences slowly and intentionally, paying attention to what feels comfortable, interesting, and true to you. Often, knowing what you don’t like is just as helpful as knowing what you do.
-
Bodies change, and wardrobes can adapt. We’ll focus on flexible, forgiving pieces and styling strategies that work across size shifts. When needed, we can plan gradual updates rather than full overhauls, so your closet continues to support you as things evolve.
-
After we define your goals, needs, and budget, I source pieces through trusted online resale platforms. I evaluate materials, construction, measurements, and brand quality, often beyond what’s listed, so you don’t have to guess. Once approved, I handle the purchasing and coordinate next steps.
-
Fit is a priority. I rely on detailed measurements, brand familiarity, and resale experience to minimize surprises. If something doesn’t work, we’ll problem-solve together, whether that means styling adjustments, resale, or sourcing a better option. The goal is always ease, not perfection.
-
As much as you want. We’ll agree in advance on budget, preferences, and approval style. Some clients like to review options before purchasing; others prefer me to take the lead. Either way, nothing happens without clear alignment.
-
This is for people who want to feel more at home in their clothes, simplify getting dressed, and build a wardrobe they’ll actually wear, again and again. It’s especially helpful if you value sustainability, quality, and thoughtful choices.
It may not be the best fit if you’re looking for fast trend turnover, constant novelty, or a complete reinvention every season.
