From Ken Christian PhD
There are probably thousands of “fashion/wardrobe” consultants out there who promise to revitalize your image and make wise clothing purchases. As with anything else, many are pretenders and wannabes, others, solid, well-intentioned and helpful and then there is an elite.
Cathy is one step beyond the elite.
Having worked with Cathy now for some 14 years I can say that in my experience she uniquely combines a phenomenal sense of fashion and color with an encyclopedic knowledge of good design and quality. I enjoy her enthusiasm and appreciate that she has an eye to protecting your budget. Sometimes that means purchasing clothing as a long-term investment, sometimes it means bargain hunting. She is expert at both.
Her energy and personal charm are extras but make buying clothing a pleasure instead of an ordeal. Her sales approach is attentive and low key. She doesn't jam you. On the other hand I can tell her I'm coming and she will pull things and have them ready—a huge time savings. She is very organized.
Working with her is an educational process. She will advise you what not to buy—things too trendy to last—but will stretch your sense of options if you are willing to follow her lead and take a few risks with color and fabric combinations. She deals in quality and advises buying things that always remain in style then shows you how to accessorize them differently to keep them looking fresh and current.
In summary, I trust Cathy. I have come to trust her because she has proven an invaluable professional resource who treats me as a friend. I also admire her. I feel exceptionally fortunate that our paths crossed. Does it get any better than that?
