I’m nervous about working with a personal shopper/image consultant. Is that normal?
YES! Many new clients are apprehensive about meeting Sophia for the first time since they don’t know what to expect.
They may be afraid that she’s going to be critical or judge them harshly. This is normal, but you’ll soon realize, unfounded. Sophia is kind, understanding and a real person just like you. She doesn’t judge, she’s here to help!

What does a personal shopper do?
A personal shopper (PS), also known as a personal stylist in some circles, is the liaison between you and your closet. Our job is to make the connection between you and wardrobe easier by identifying trends, gauging fit, and developing overall looks that work best for you. The goal is to give our clients the proper tools to dress
Our job is to make the connection between you and wardrobe easier by identifying trends, gauging fit, and developing overall looks that work best for you.
The goal is to give our clients the proper tools to dress themselves well every day (and to help with buying gifts for others, travel preparation and dressing for special events as well).
I don’t know what to buy, and I feel lost and overwhelmed when I go shopping. Will SophisticatedPS help me overcome this?
Yes. Sophisticated Personal Shopper makes the shopping process less stressful by helping you choose clothing styles and stores that work for you and we’ll act as a buffer between you and potentially pushy sales-people.
What’s a consultation appointment like?
Typically, appointments are 30 to 40 minutes long. We meet to discuss your individual style, needs, goals, work environment, lifestyle and anything else you believe will influence your wardrobe.
From this discovery process, we then work together to create a custom plan to bring your signature style to reality. It takes several questions to paint a picture of what the “new” you should look like.

I’m in the process of losing weight; should I wait to hire Sofia?In most cases it is better to buy clothes for your current size than to wait until you’ve reached your goal. In fact, most clients find that wearing clothes that properly fit them increases their confidence.
This is motivation to keep moving towards weight loss. Having said that, we don’t work based on your weight, we work based on your body line, your
This is motivation to keep moving towards weight loss. Having said that, we don’t work based on your weight, we work based on your body line, your skeleton and your genes.

What’s is the time commitment needed to complete the process?
This will depend upon the number of services/packages you select. Sofia usually needs a couple of days for both men and women.
What results can I expect?
That can be answered on a number of different levels. Each step you take along the way gives you results – some big, some small that add up to big results as you go along.
Remember, this is not a television makeover show. We’re not going to bully you into making changes. Everyone moves at her/his own pace and that’s absolutely fine. And, to be honest, some changes might come easily and some might take a little more time and practice.
The important thing to remember is that we’re here to help you integrate the changes and celebrate the results. We promise we’ll keep you from making any choices that make you look or feel silly or inappropriate (this is a constant concern for many women and men, especially as they get older or their bodies change).
How far in advance do I need to book Sophisticated PS?
2 – 4 weeks, depending upon the time of year.
If we go shopping, will we go to one store or many? Where are your go-to places to shop?
Great questions…THANKS for asking. You define your clothing budget and then we custom pick the stores that will fit your needs.
