How it works

01. CONSULTATION CALL

Start by signing up for a complimentary 20 minute video meeting with Sylvia to discuss your styling objectives and ask any questions you may have.

02. CLOSET EDIT

A closet edit is optional, but a very useful starting point for a style update or overhaul. Ridding clutter and reorganizing the items in your closet will give you clarity, and allow Sylvia to assess your wardrobe needs and offer useful styling advice.

03. Styling Advice + Sourcing

You can book an appointment for wardrobe planning, styling for a specific event, building a capsule wardrobe, packing for a trip, and more. Sylvia will provide customized shopping lists with links to recommended purchases upon request.

Sylvia’s sense of style is impeccable: always classic with a bit of modern chic. She helped me and my husband overhaul our closets and worked with us to pinpoint our specific needs.

Sylvia has helped me step out of my comfort zone and is a source of counsel when I think I’ve put something fabulous together and she “gently” steers me in the right direction.

24 hours in #Amsterdam 🌷 It was a quick trip w 24 hours in #Amsterdam 🌷
It was a quick trip with my boys, and train delays (hallo swan on the railroad track) and crazy weather (alternating sun, rain and hail storms) cut into our sightseeing options. Luckily, I had about an hour to snap some pictures of the pretty canals.
Back in DC and grateful for some family time in Europe, regardless of how short it was ❤️
Beach getaways make me happy ❤️ Btw, this sue Beach getaways make me happy ❤️
Btw, this suede Will jacket from @sezane is the perfect transitional packing piece. It’s just as good over a t-shirt as a sweater, so it works for every season and destination. 
I’ll link it and other outfit details in stories. It’s often sold out but you can add it to your stock alerts. It’s a signature style that will surely be available in time for holiday gifting - treat yourself! 😉
Bon weekend x #sezane #sezanelovers
Sprezzatura 🇮🇹🍋 That’s the vibe at th Sprezzatura 🇮🇹🍋 
That’s the vibe at the new @stephen.starr and @nancysilverton Italian restaurant @osteriamozzadc .
Set in an iconic Georgetown location, it’s a master study in casual elegance and elevated simplicity. The decor is sophisticated without being stuffy, and the cuisine - I’m calling it “rustic with a twist” - is authentic without being basic.
My kind of place 😉 #osteriamozzadc
Boots made for walking in the color of the season Boots made for walking in the color of the season 🍷
#AD Whenever I travel to Europe, I always pack a pair of @inez boots because they’re stylish yet comfortable enough to walk around on cobbled streets all day. These beauties from the fall collection are no exception.
Just the right heel and the perfect burgundy hue for maximum effect with minimal effort. I can’t tell you how many compliments I got when I wore them in Paris and London!
I’ll link them in stories, and you can use code SylviaC15 for 15% off of your order. Happy shopping x
