Her style is a masterclass in balance: dresses that skim her figure, power suits that never feel buttoned-up, and coats that frame her presence, whether she’s stepping into court or slipping past cameras.
Because real power isn’t mute: it’s in how you show up, claim your space, and let your presence do the talking.
You lay out your arguments with unshakable precision, hold your ground in high-stakes negotiations, and walk into rooms where you’re not always the loudest voice, but you’re always the one to watch.
Your reputation is built on intellect, control, and the kind of quiet composure that makes people take notice.
Your wardrobe should be a reflection of the authority you carry every day. A power move in its own right: strong in shape, fluid in feel, and meant to support your presence without ever feeling rigid.
Because when you’re the one setting the standard, everything about you, including how you dress, should say exactly that.
You lead high-stakes negotiations, close multimillion-dollar deals, make split-second calls in court…so why does getting dressed feel harder than your toughest cross-examination?
If you’re like the high-powered women I work with, here’s what you’re probably dealing with:
You’ve worn the boxy suits that hide your shape and the button-ups that gape, squeeze, or swallow you whole. Power dressing doesn’t have to mean rigid, masculine, or uncomfortable. And you’re done settling for clothes that don’t move, work, or lead the way you do.
Your morning’s already a sprint: emails before coffee, last-minute client calls, case updates on the drive in. The last thing you need? A closet of ill-fitting, not-like-you suits that make you second-guess yourself before you’ve even stepped out the door.
Your expertise is undeniable, your presence sharpened by years of experience. So why isn’t your closet backing you up? After winning plenty of tough cases, closing deals, and making high-stakes calls, you deserve more than just ‘professional.’

You’re tugging at sleeves, wrestling with waistbands, adjusting, fidgeting…right up until the moment you step into court or a client meeting.
Then you catch your reflection and think, “Seriously, why does nothing fit me right?”
Kids, menopause, a shifting lifestyle: your body has changed. Maybe your waist softened, your arms lost definition, or your curves settled in places you didn’t expect (or ask for). Totally normal…but equally frustrating when your closet is filled with clothes that fit the old you. Or worse, clothes designed for runway models who have smaller waists than your legal pad.
And yet that’s exactly who the fashion industry designs for. But if most clothes weren’t made for real bodies, does that mean that you and I should settle for feeling ‘meh’?
I wanted to look polished and confident, but shopping was overwhelming. I tried styling apps, blogs, and department store stylists, but figuring it out myself was exhausting.
Then I found Estelle. Now? I know exactly what to wear. My closet is organized, getting dressed is effortless, and I never second-guess how I look.

To feel at ease in your clothes, you don’t need a different body. You just need clothes that get yours.
The secret’s simple: balance. Layering pieces that define where you need it, choosing tailoring that flatters without squeezing, and going for fabrics that skim, not cling.
That’s The Hourglass Method: a way of dressing that naturally creates shape and highlights you at your best.
The moment you start dressing this way, you’ll go from counting the minutes till you can peel off your clothes, to lingering at the mirror, thinking, ‘‘Damn, I look good.”
“Seeing myself in a structured jacket instead of an oversized cardigan was a wake-up call: I finally saw myself differently. I’ve always had big arms, but after seeing myself in photos, I realized I don’t need to hide them…I need structure.”
“Blazers always felt stiff and wrong on me. Turns out, I just needed a different silhouette and better proportions.”
Pants that fit in the hips but gape at the waist.
Even out your proportions: opt for A-line skirts & wide-leg pants that flare gently from the waist down
Button-ups gape at the chest but feel loose everywhere else
Draw attention downward: choose prints or bold colors, or anything that adds volume to the lower half
Dresses often look shapeless instead of defining the body
Create curves where you want them: choose wrap dresses and belted styles in soft, drapey fabrics
Tops that fit your bust are too
loose at the waist
Follow your curves: choose structured tops and balance fitted pieces with softer, more fluid bottoms
The Hourglass Method: How to Dress for Your Shape (Without a Tape Measure) is waiting in your inbox, ready to take your outfits from ‘meh’ to magnetic (without squeezing, pulling, or second-guessing).
A no-math, no-measuring trick that instantly reveals your proportions, so you finally get why some outfits work (and others don’t).
Small styling shifts = huge visual impact. Find out exactly where your body needs more structure (upper or lower) and how to style accordingly, so you never again look at a photo and think, “Ugh, why did I wear that?”
No more shopping for what looked good on a 5’11” model with a totally different frame. These 4 smart adjustments make clothes fit and flatter your shape, so you finally wear outfits that feel like they were tailor-made.
The mix-and-match essentials that take the guesswork out of getting dressed, so you’re out the door in minutes.
These colors match your energy and presence, but when it comes to your most flattering shades? That’s where a professional color analysis comes in.
It’s the difference between a ‘nice outfit’ and ‘Wow, you look amazing.’ A pro analysis pinpoints the exact tones that make your skin glow, your features pop, and every outfit feel like an instant confidence boost.
Now that you’ve got the power players in your closet, let’s put them to work.
Whether you’re presenting a case, steering a tough conversation, or heading straight to dinner from chambers, this is how you walk in: clear, collected, unmistakably in charge.
Stride in, papers down, eyes up. Before you even speak, they already know: you mean business.
Tailored pantsuit + structured silk blouse + structured leather bag + pointed-toe heels
They were ready to push back…until you walked in. Now? Every word, every move, holds their attention.
Structured power dress + belted trench +
sleek minimalist heels
Dinner, gala, drinks? No outfit change needed. You command the room long before the first toast, and long after you’ve left.
Tailored straight-leg denim + fitted knit + camel wrap coat + pointed toe flats
Coffee run, errands, impromptu brunch: you’re out the door in five…but it looks like you planned it days ago.
Your quiz results just confirmed what you had a hunch about…but maybe couldn’t quite put into words:
You’ve earned the reputation, the credibility, the expertise. But when you run through those drawers and hangers, does your wardrobe really match the woman who built it all?
That blazer you want to love? If you have to tug, adjust, or second-guess it in the mirror, it’s not power, it’s hesitation. And hesitation is not your brand.
Presence isn’t about disappearing under stiff blazers and stifling suits. It’s about owning your space: sharp, strong, and as feminine as you want to be.
You need to look unshakeable and undeniably credible (because you are) without wasting brainpower on ‘What do I wear?’
You want clothes that feel like you, fit like they should, and make you feel like the one in charge before you even speak.
You want to feel amazing in your skin NOW, not ‘someday’ when your body changes. Your wardrobe should reflect that: intentional cuts, flattering silhouettes, zero room for settling.
Right now, it’s a time-sucking, confidence-killing battle.
But imagine this instead:
Your wardrobe is precision-built: zero fluff, no wasted space. Every piece fits, flatters, and sculpts your shape.
You reach for an outfit, slip it on, and head out the door with no tugging, no last-minute swaps, no second-guessing.
You walk into a courtroom, a conference, or a coffee shop, and the compliments follow: ‘That outfit is perfect on you’ and ‘Wow, where did you get that dress?’
Panic-buying a blazer that ends up buried in your closet after one (ill-fitting) wear.
Scrolling for hours through 24/7 options just to pick something ‘safe’ that still feels off.
Waiting for a ‘someday’ body to dress like the woman running the show now.
That’s what I do. I take your wardrobe (the good, the bad, the ‘I want to love it, but…’) and turn it into a lineup that fits your life, your body, your authority. TODAY.
And it starts with a 20-minute, no-fluff styling consult.
Why getting dressed feels like a high-stakes case you didn’t sign up for. We’ll pinpoint exactly why your outfits feel off instead of giving you that ‘Damn right, I’m in charge’ confidence.
How to close the gap between what’s in your closet and the presence you bring to the room. We’ll figure out why your wardrobe isn’t backing you up, and what you need to have clothes that fit, flatter and match the woman you are today.
The exact next move to turn ‘Nothing in my closet works’ into ‘This is exactly it.’ You’ll leave with a clear plan to build a lineup that turns heads and makes getting dressed the easiest thing you do all day.
Whether this is the styling support you’ve been missing, or you’ve ever wished for a styling expert who gets the world you move in, this is your chance to see if I’m that person, risk-free.
I’ll show you exactly what working together looks like, including my 5-minute mix-and-match system that makes outfit decisions so simple, you’re out the door in minutes: heels clicking, bag swinging, mind on the day ahead.
She found the perfect outfit, completely on brand, and it made me feel great.
Better yet, she was there each step of the way, helping me swap out pieces until everything was just right.
My satisfaction was her top priority, and that made me feel like a million bucks!

Every time a high-exposure case came up, the kind that wasn’t going to settle, I could just walk into my closet and pull together a polished look in minutes. Everything mixed and matched effortlessly. Zero stress.
Mornings feel different now. I sit with my coffee, read the news, and talk with my husband, without a single thought wasted on what to wear. It’s no decisions. I love it.

As a female attorney who spent 7 years navigating courtrooms, standing under the gaze of male colleagues, and juggling client expectations, I know this all too well: nobody hands you a rulebook for how to ‘look the part.’
The unspoken rules, though? Oh, they’re everywhere.
Too stiff? You come off unapproachable.
Too relaxed? They don’t take you seriously.
Too safe? Ugh…forgettable.
So how do you hit that just-right mix of ‘polished’ but not ‘rigid,’ ‘confident’ but not ‘intimidating’ without wasting hours second-guessing every outfit?
You’re not alone in this, and you don’t have to keep guessing. Let’s do this together.
If, after your styling consult, we both see it’s a fit, I won’t just hand you a list of ‘nice basics’ and send you on your way.
I’ll work with you, for you. We’ll create a streamlined wardrobe that fits your shape, flatters your skin undertones, and frees up your mental bandwidth for the things that actually matter. (Because you have bigger things to focus on than an outfit puzzle to solve at 6 AM.)
Waking up knowing anything you put on works. Just grab, wear, and go.
Owning clothes that mix, match, and move at the speed of your life, from the courtroom to school pickup to date night.
Walking into client meetings, social events, and Zoom calls to ‘You always look so put together! What’s your secret?’
Finally looking in the mirror and thinking, ‘Damn right’ because your wardrobe finally lifts, drapes, and frames you in the best possible light.
You and I both know this: a no-fail, power-packed wardrobe isn’t something you throw together between emails and court filings.
It’s expertly curated and strategically streamlined, so pulling on an outfit is as quick and automatic as grabbing your case files and heading out the door.
If you’re done with mornings hijacked by outfit swaps, last-minute mirror checks, and that ‘Ugh, not this again’ feeling…
…And ready for a system of grab-and-go outfits that fit, flatter, and earn you compliments the moment you walk in…
I style women attorneys who know their wardrobe isn’t an afterthought. It’s a loaded argument, a closing statement, a clear-as-day declaration of ‘I’m in charge’ before they even open their mouth.
Was there a ‘Yep, that’s me’ moment? Or maybe a ‘Finally, someone put it into words?’ Whatever it was, I’d love to hear it!
DM me on LinkedIn with your thoughts. I read and reply to every message.
Or, if you know another woman who keeps waiting for ‘someday’ to find her own badass style, send this quiz her way. Because feeling great in our skin, shape, and style isn’t a future goal. It’s something we all deserve right now.
I was stuck wearing the same outfits over and over. I felt boring, uninspired, and self-conscious at all social events.
Now? People constantly compliment my outfits, and I actually love getting dressed.

When I launched my law firm, I needed a branding video series. The production company handed me a mood board that was totally not me. Estelle took one look and said, ‘I’ve got you.’
She went through my closet, built four distinct looks, and shopped for pieces that made sense for me.
Later, when I did a big branding photoshoot, she styled me for that too. Every piece, every detail, it was all intentional.
Five years on, I still use those photos and videos everywhere.
