Wear to Where: Give the Gift of Style
12.21.11
Do you have a beautiful wife who's hard to shop for and has been complaining that she "has nothing to wear"? Or a brother who's ready to start dating again and you know that a little “sprucing up” will help him show the world what an attractive, high-quality catch he really is? Or maybe your best friend is going for that promotion and you know that polish and refinement goes a long way in this competitive job market? If you can answer yes to one of these questions than I have a perfect gift for you....A Personal Styling Package from my company Leslie Christen | LifeStyling.
Imagine your loved ones at their most extraordinary, attractive and confident, with a personal style that truly reflects who they are when they’re at their shining best. Imagine them moving forward in their lives with ease: advancing in their careers, being at ease in social situations and feeling great about themselves, whatever their age, body type or lifestyle.
My Personal Styling packages are truly the gifts that keep giving. They're more than just a makeover---they're a life-changing education! Along with great personal style, your nearest and dearest will come away with:
- A real understanding of what styles, colors & silhouettes work for them and why
