It takes a special person to help others find clothes that make them feel their best. Kathleen hasn’t just helped me to create outfits, she’s built my self-confidence. Her focus as a stylist isn’t to sell pieces of clothing, it’s to create a sense of self, while also thinking about how to create a sustainable and long lasting wardrobe. I couldn’t be more grateful for meeting this incredible human.

Kathleen’s work is not just about clothes, it’s about identifying and amplifying the way you want to show up in the world. With her expertise, she empowered me to experiment with styles that help me feel more myself. I love that she pushes back against fast fashion by showing us how we can use used clothing and restyle rather than discard our own older clothes. In a world that tells us to hate our bodies, she helped me feel more powerful in my appearance.

I’ve loved using all of the LateBloomer options, which for me started with a closet review. I needed help sorting through what I had and, more importantly, identifying my favorite pieces and why I loved them. We made room in my closet for all the new clothes Kathleen found for me, and built a cohesive closet filled with items that all feel like my favorites

Kathleen has an incredible eye for secondhand (read: affordable) designer pieces and unique thrift store finds. Before I started with LateBloomers, I never once had luck finding something that I loved AND fit me at a thrift store, and now I have suitcases brought to my door of the coolest stuff that (almost) all fits me!

Ever since Kathleen started styling me, I’ve constantly received compliments on my new clothes. Not just “love your shirt” (which, yes, I do get), but ones like “that outfit is so YOU” and “you look so confident wearing that blazer”. Kathleen has transformed shopping from something that I dread (lack of success, feeling like I’m too big for the clothing I like) into a fun, positive experience. Kathleen constantly finds pieces that I feel comfortable wearing, that fit me just right, and that elevates my style without making me feel like I’m wearing someone else’s clothes.

Tackling your closet—let alone figuring out your style—is intimidating. For me, between COVID, becoming a mom, and just life, it was also emotional. I’m so grateful to Kathleen for her kindness, patience, and communication in helping me find ME.

Kathleen makes fashion accessible, achievable, and fun! By helping me identify just a handful of new staple pieces – both secondhand and new, Kathleen helped me unleash a new sense of personal style that has given me a newfound confidence. And I’ve done so without breaking the bank!
