Founder and Training Director

Students can choose from the 1-Day Stylist Training, 2-Day Color Analysis Training, 3-Day Fashion Stylist & Color Analysis Training, 5-Day Personal Stylist Training, 7-Day Image Consultant Training, or the comprehensive 2-Week Image Consultant & Personal Stylist Training.

The three-color rule is a simple outfit-building guideline: limit a look to three main colors for a cohesive result. This can include a dominant color, a supporting color, and an accent. Neutrals such as black, navy, denim, cream, or metallics may function as part of the palette. Color analysis helps identify which combinations and accent shades are most flattering for you.
