“Jill’s style advice gives me permission to dress simply and find great pieces that feel like me. I have little sayings I've picked up from her that go over in my mind like 'one in one out' of my closet when I buy something new, or 'does this fit my 3 word style statement' when I am looking at a new clothing item.
Jill is great at providing helpful and immediately applicable ideas. My favourite is her Substack newsletter with links to products as she has done all the hard work behind the scenes to research and locate the best of and then simply gives me a direct link!”

"Jill is simply a pleasure to work with! She has terrific consulting skills and strong emotional intelligence. I have used her for personal style help as well as for several corporate projects. I love that she has expanded her positioning to the broader topic of the power of personal appearance in driving your individual brand. And it is a gender neutral need; men as well as women can benefit from Jill's approach. She is judgment free and full of practical suggestions."

“Working with Jill is the support EVERY WOMAN deserves and needs. She is incredibly helpful, kind, compassionate and professional.
For the closet cleanup, she arrived with a rolling rack, emptied my hanging clothes out of my closet and had me try on every single item. Jill's expertise was remarkable. Having someone who knows which black pants you need to have in your closet when all of your pre-Covid ones are tired and need to be dumped was so wonderful! She does it with such kindness and professionalism that I never once felt self-conscious.
When Jill left, I could see everything I owned in my closet, the floor was clean, everything was organized and we had a list of items we'd identified as the basis for our shopping trip. The day we shopped was fantastic. She helped me style outfits with advice that works way beyond what we bought that day together. It was worth every penny and I think everyone should work with her!
Getting dressed is SO MUCH BETTER and I get compliments all the time now! Don't wait, call her and get on her schedule. :)”

“Jill presented, The Power of Style: Elevating Your Personal Presence and Professional Image to our Women's Employee Resource Group and it was a huge success! She effortlessly combined her expertise in style with her understanding of the unique challenges that women face in both their professional and personal lives.
What truly set Jill apart was her ability to connect with the audience on a personal level. She is engaging, fun, knowledgeable, and encouraged open dialogue, making us feel comfortable sharing our own experiences and challenges. What I loved most about her presentation is that she spoke about the science behind style and how looking your best makes you feel your best which translates to you performing your best.
I cannot recommend Jill enough to anyone looking to enhance their personal presence and professional image. Her presentation is still being talked a month later by the women in our group! I am confident that you will love Jill too!”

“The Closet Cleanup with Jill was revolutionary and I wish I had met her decades ago! I now know why there were so many clothes in my closet that I didn’t wear. Jill has great tips & tricks to improve your style and make the clothes you love look better on your body. She made my Personal Shopping trip effortless and an absolute pleasure by pre-selecting clothes that we agreed I needed which were all ready to try on and buy! I feel so much better about my wardrobe and know that spending the time and money with Jill will pay back in spades as I now have a better sense of what to buy in future to make me look and feel good!”

"Wanting to break the cycle of buying and returning things that didn’t work for me, I reached out to Jill for help. Over the course of one afternoon, Jill had me try everything in my closet on, highlighted what worked well, and helped me to see why somethings were not a good fit. Jill also identified a few items that would fill a few gaps in my wardrobe.
My shopping is now more targeted, my closet is better curated, and it is so much easier (and more fun!) to get dressed!"

"Jill supports women in understanding personal style as a form of both self-expression and self-care. She steers away from fads and helps her clients and audience members find a chic, comfortable, engaging way to make their insides and outsides match. Some of what she offers are particular tips and tricks, but the message is larger: you can easily become an even more powerful version of yourself. Because she is not only very smart and savvy, but very real, she accomplishes this through a clear, compelling delivery interspersed with humor and personal vulnerability."

“Jill knows my style - she doesn’t inject hers- but rather helps improve mine- this is what I have loved about working with her for the last 7 years - she’s there for a closet redirect, shopping suggestions, fills in the holes with just a few items and helps you understand what works for your body type, your personal style and the money you choose to spend on all of the moving parts - I highly recommend her services- well worth the time!”

"Jill has an incredibly powerful presentation style that inspires attendees to think differently, while doing so in a very human, accessible way. Jill doesn't talk at your attendees. She talks with your attendees and, in so doing, is memorable, relatable and impactful.
Our members were excited and passionate to start employing Jill's frameworks to up-level their style to reach a heightened level of confidence. Jill is a dynamo presenter; we will still be talking about her workshop for years to come!"

"I can’t believe I hesitated to work with you! There is a difference between reading in theory about your body shape and actually having a personalized prescription. I feel like I really ‘get it’ now and know what to look for. I was left with no unanswered questions and real direction for my outfits whilst still honoring ‘my’ taste and style preferences. Thank you for a fascinating day - you have such talent, Jill, and real heart."

"Jill uses evidence-based principles rooted in behavioral science to support her straightforward, simple advice. Her visual aids were powerful but succinct, and she was completely relatable and likable. Sometimes, we just need to be reminded of what we already know; we need to be given permission to spend extra time and money on things that matter (i.e., make a big impact) and not on things that don’t! I really appreciated Jill’s approach and manner of humanizing embarrassing fashion foibles (like showing up to a meeting with a wrinkled shirt or a run in your nylons) while helping us gain perspective on small, easy fixes that will prevent us from stepping in those same traps over and over again. I could listen to Jill all day; she is a remarkable person and a wonderful presenter!"

"Almost 3 years after having my daughter, I was dressing and feeling like a middle-aged mom. Jill went through my closet with me and not only helped me get rid of the offending clothes, but also showed me the types of clothes I should buy for my body type, style and age. She then followed up with a list of suggested items to complete my wardrobe. I feel fresh and organized and now have room in my closet for some new clothes. Fabulous!"

"In her presentation at the Bryant University Women’s Summit, Jill effectively explained how the way we dress and carry ourselves indirectly communicates so many varied messages- both to others and ourselves. She integrated research and used great examples of how we can not only amp up our style but also feel fabulous and leave lasting impressions. Jill is very relatable and approached the subject in a down to earth way, showing that every woman has the capability to make slight tweaks and changes to her style without breaking the bank or getting to her “ideal weight". The experience was lively and interactive; I couldn’t wait to implement some of Jill’s ideas when it was over!"
