Like most people, I associate stylists with celebrities and other high-profile individuals. So when I saw Kiri Blakeley's Stylists Aren't Just for Celebrities Anymore on Forbes, I was immediately intrigued.According to Blakeley, "Female executives and entrepreneurs--and the just-plain-busy or those in need of fashion guidance--often turn to stylists to improve or update their look and wardrobe."
When you think about it, it makes sense doesn't it? Turning to a stylist for your daily office attire or an important presentation not only helps ensure that you look professional, but also allows you to use the time you'd normally take to choose an outfit and spend it with your family or perfecting your presentation instead.
Blakeley's article quotes Joe Lupo, who, along with partner Jesse Garza, owns Visual Therapy, an image-consulting firm in New York: "[Hiring a stylist is] not about being indulgent; it's about having a smart, streamlined wardrobe. People will wear their stuff to death. It's anti-waste."
It might not be for everyone, but if hiring a stylist can save both time and money, it's certainly worth considering.
