About Barb Wilson, Image ConsultantEach of us is so much more than our appearance.Yet, our appearance and our self-image have an enormous impact on our ability to be happy, to feel confident, and to create the life we desire. The bachelor's degree I earned in psychology and the insights I gained from my years as a counselor have given me a deep understanding of how our personal sense of power or limitation is based on how we see ourselves and how we think others see us. In time, the stresses of counseling at-risk youth exceeded the enjoyment of the work, so I looked for a career in which I could combine my people skills and knowledge with my love of clothing. I found that career at Nordstrom, where, as a personal shopper, I learned to identify the qualities of superior clothing. (This is why I also represent Doncaster Clothing ) My work at Nordstrom gave me the skills and opportunity to help hundreds of clients in creating a wardrobe that gave them the look and individuality they desired. I know from experience how appearance is affected by fabric, style, color, tailoring for proper fit, and "line and design" (how a particular cut flatters a body type-or doesn't). Because clothing and overall appearance also affect our emotions, I have developed effective techniques to guide clients in creating a confident appearance and attitude while still expressing their individual style. |

Additionally, I am certified in the Color 1 personal charting system, where I learned the importance of wearing the most enhancing colors and pattern size for individuals. The benefits of a flattering style can be sabotaged by a pattern that is either too large or too small, or by a color that works against your skin tones instead of with them. Did you know that most people only wear about 20% of what is in their closets! Just imagine what your closet would look like if you eliminated the clutter of clothing that simply does not work for you. Imagine the savings in time and money (as well as closet space) if you rid yourself of your unmatched, out-of-style, "but it was on sale" clothing. Now imagine the ease of getting dressed each morning knowing that every item in your wardrobe shows you at your best! Let me help you. I partner with my clients to create an attractive image that authentically reflects who they are to themselves and others. Sincerely, ![]() | |
