CLIENT LOVE: KATHERINE R.

here’s what Katherine had to say about her recent Trip Prep service:

“I had previously done an in-person guided shopping session with Rachel and so I had no concerns that she would get me sorted with her Trip Prep service.  When I travel, I typically feel like my packing isn’t practical.  I don’t necessarily overpack or under pack – I’m just more likely to pack specific outfits that are not interchangeable with other items.  I then find on the trip I feel like I’m wearing the same outfits over rather than mixing together. 

After working with Rachel to get ready for this trip, every single piece could be paired with something else that I packed. 

The Style Passport she put together made planning and packing so much easier, and I referred back to it consistently throughout my trip.

I had various outfits in my head at the start of each day from what Rachel carefully prepared and walked me through.  She was purposeful in her pieces and showed me how I can transition the same outfit from day to night with either accessories/adding/taking off/changing an item of clothing. 

I was a bit worried about the change in seasons while travelling to a different climate, but she picked pieces that work in almost any season and showed me how they can work to bundle up or just to layer light on a hot day. 

She took into account the styles in the cities that we were going to and incorporated accessories that fit.  It was actually amazing!!!

She also helped with my shoe choices – all of my shoes were classic and could have been worn with any outfit to dress up or down.  I find shoes hard when traveling because they take up so much space but she was a great help there.  I like how she talks about how accessories and shoes can really switch up an outfit ‘cause it’s so true. 

Rachel’s Trip Prep service is absolutely something I would consider repeating for a future trip.  Especially for a long trip like the one we had, I did the entire 2-week trip with 1 carry on and still had a different outfit every day. 

Rachel is organized, thoughtful and committed. She is thorough in the sense that she has all bases covered – she asked about items I had planned on taking prior to selecting pieces and was ready for a purposeful shopping trip when we met. She’s honest when it comes to looking at and trying on items, and walks you through how the pieces could work with others being brought on the trip.  She even asked about luggage, laundry, etc.

It felt like those few hours and few hundred dollars were so worth it. I felt like I had a great sense of style on my trip.”
