TESTIMONIALS
Let me tell you how much fun I had working with Cristina. While I'm known for thinking outside the box in my professional life, when it comes to fashion and wardrobe, not so much. Add to that some weight fluctuations I've experienced over the past year and I was at a loss for how to spruce up my wardrobe. Enter Cristina and her magic. In less than an hour, Cristina mixed, matched and styled over 25 outfits from clothes already in my wardrobe, and she sent me links to additional fashion staples to add to my closet. Cristina showed me how to have fun, how to mix-and-match, and how to tailor clothing to fit my body type. I am inspired now and feel confident in how to choose pieces and create outfits that reflect my personality and inner style.

I had an amazing experience with Cristina!! She is someone who is so passionate about her work in that she listens to what you want and transitions that into amazing choices to just walk into a dressing room and try on. Cristina picked about 12 dresses for me to try on for my son’s wedding. I had no idea what I was going to wear! Her choices were spot on, making it very difficult for me to choose, but I finally did. She gives you excellent feedback and doesn’t sway your opinion. I’m so excited with my choice! She also gave me great ideas on all the accessories needed down to shoes and makeup!! I can’t thank her enough and will look forward to using her service again!

I worked with Cristina to style some outfits for an upcoming photo shoot. I knew the "look" I was going for, but needed the magic touch to bring it all together, and Cristina did just that! I would have never put together the pieces she saw in my closet and I was stunned that she was so quickly able to achieve the outfits I wanted. It was such a huge relief to have her eyes on my wardrobe and her honest opinion on what would work on camera. We also worked together on styling some pieces to "up level" my closet, and I swear I've never received more compliments than when I wear something she found for me. I'd HIGHLY recommend her if you struggle with outfits - she knows her stuff, and her enthusiasm and excitement about making sure YOU are feeling your best makes the entire experience a blast!

Working with Cristina is like putting on a silk robe. She just makes you feel so relaxed and happy about the process of style. Styling yourself should come easily, right? It wasn’t feeling that way for me. I was so uninspired with my with my wardrobe and realized I had reverted to wearing the same jeans on a daily basis. Cristina walked me through the process of looking at the clothing in my closet and helped me style them in new, refreshing ways with my own shoes and accessories. She was instrumental in helping me understand basics and how to style them, and also helped me shop for pieces that would round out my closet, all without breaking the bank and staying within my budget. I highly recommend Cristina. Her essence for fashion and helping women find their own personal style is refreshing and invigorating for the soul.

I’ve worked with Cristina at Stella and Dot for almost a decade and have witnessed first hand her huge passion and enthusiasm for fashion, beauty and helping women confidently rock their personal style. She has a huge heart, makes you feel comfortable being you, and encourages every woman to add a little sass to their style and proudly own what you’ve got! I couldn’t recommend working with her more. You’ll leave not only more stylish, but ready to conquer the day!

I feel lucky to know Cristina in many different ways: A fashion consultant, a business woman, a collaborator and as a friend. We have worked together, but really, is it work when we are having fun? She is always available to send me recommendations, which are always right on point. She listens and empowers you to become the best version of yourself. Her sense of style is matched only by her kindness and genuinity.

I’d like to give a shout out and thanks to Cristina for teaching me how to do my own makeup for a wedding I’ll be attending in Spain. She taught me techniques on how to apply it by doing one side of my face and letting me do the other, so I could practice with her. She is a seasoned veteran in the fashion and beauty industry and is exceptionally talented. If any of you ladies need guidance or inspiration with makeup or fashion, I strongly recommend her!

I called Cristina because I had 2 speaking engagements coming up and wanted to amp up my wardrobe. Not only did she help me pick pieces from my closet, but also gave me a shopping list (and feedback while I was shopping!) of pieces that would not only take my current outfits to the next level, but also be building blocks for years to come. She not only helped me with my specific needs, but helped me understand how to better accessorize and finish outfits. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to take their style to the next level.

Cristina was amazing! I have been staring at my overcrowded cluttered closet for years and really needed a closet detox. Cristina was able to help me sort through clothes, bags, and shoes and help me part with them, as they truly were not serving me. As a person who loves fashion too, I was a little lost as how to navigate dressing into my fifties. Cristina was able to inspire me with new, fresh and exciting looks! Pairings I never would have thought of myself. She showed me that my closet had so many great pieces already in it and inspired me to shop in my own closet rather than spending money on new clothes I really didn’t need. She built up my confidence and got me excited to dress up!
I feel like I have a whole new wardrobe and I can actually see my clothes, shoes and bags, because they are organized and color coded. Thank you so much!!!!!

I contacted Cristina to help me with wardrobe options for the upcoming photoshoot for my business website launch, and also to provide makeup services on the day of the shoot. I had never worked with a stylist before and I found Cristina very approachable, practical, and fun to work with. In addition to making the process as simple and easy for me as possible, she made me feel at ease and about my appearance and confident that the looks selected would suit me and work well with my website's design and style. Cristina also respected my budget and checked my comfort with pricing throughout our time together. Cristina's makeup work made a tremendous difference in how my photos looked as well. Cristina is a true professional and I am so glad I worked with her. I would happily work with her again for my next big event or website refresh!

Cristina is such a pleasure to work with on all things fashion and beauty. She truly listens to your concerns and gives feedback about products, whether it’s skincare, makeup, clothes or jewelry. She’s my go to when I’m not feeling confident about pairing jewelry with an outfit or if I just want some guidance on an overall look for an event. I ask countless questions and about how to use certain products or what she would recommend and she’s always there with a quick and caring response that helps solve my problem. I’ve had the pleasure of sitting with her for a makeup lesson where she literally taught me step by step practices and how to experiment with new techniques. I love following her posts and recommendations for up and coming style trends, too, because she always breaks it down into simple “how to” without making it overwhelming. I cant say it enough, I love working with her to capture my best looks!

I am a mama of 4 kiddos and one of them is a newborn. I have been feeling so stuck on what to wear! I am not fitting into my pre pregnancy clothes, and maternity clothes are starting to make me look frumpy. I didn’t want to spend a ton of money, but had to do something if I was going to leave the house and feel somewhat good about doing so. I love Cristina’s style, her love for fashion and just her overall energy! I love seeing all of her posts and she always looks adorable! I thought to myself, if anyone can help, she can and I messaged her the next day. We chatted for about 10 minutes about what I was looking for, my style and my budget. Cristina sent me a shopping list with direct links to shop and she nailed it! She selected a variety of pieces and stayed within my budget. It was so easy to click the links and made it so much less stressful and overwhelming. I am so happy and will be scheduling a shopping trip once I am back to my pre baby weight. Thank you, Cristina!

Cristina is an amazing stylist and a true pleasure to work with! She is quick, responsive, creative and truly good at what she does. We had an intro call to discuss what I was looking for, which was a lot, honestly, and she took all of that information and sent me soooo many suggestions for tops, belts, skirts, pants, etc! Especially considering it was the first time we worked together, she really understood my style, what I looking for, what I didn’t want and based on all of that, she totally delivered and saved me a ton of time, which was awesome! I will definitely rely on her in the future and totally recommend her to any other ladies who want to love their closet!

I had a great experience with Cristina! I lost a substantial amount of weight, had a business trip coming up and absolutely nothing to wear. Cristina knew exactly where to look for those designer brands I love, for a bargain! Upon my arrival to the store, she was ready for me with a dressing room full of clothes to try on! She really listened to my likes, dislikes, picked clothes that flattered my body and stayed within my budget. I highly recommend Cristina. I am amazed by the amount of time, money and frustrations I saved. Best of all, it was such a pleasure and so much fun shopping with her. I will definitely be working with her again!

Cristina and I have been working together for 7 years. She is a dedicated business woman and it has been my pleasure working with her. Cristina is professional, insightful and dedicated to her craft. She earns the trust of her clients through her honesty, integrity and her knowledge of the business. Cristina is up to date on fashion and lifestyle trends and shares them in a warm and inclusive manner. You always feel like you are in good hands when Cristina is taking care of you. Her bubbly personality will draw you in and make you feel like she is the friend you have been waiting for in life.

I have learned so much about lipstick colors and applying lipstick (my favorite thing ever) I have also had the pleasure of hosting a Stella and Dot trunk show, which was a huge success, but the best thing you have done is to give my husband pointers on what to get me for Christmas. The jewelry you helped him select was “me” right down to the jewel; You always help me get out of my comfort zone. Before meeting you and learning about Stella and Dot, I never would have worn statement necklaces. Now I am confident and wear them all the time. I never used to wear dainty necklaces and because of you, I am now wearing those, too. You are such an inspiration and someone I can turn to for style.

I had the pleasure of working with Cristina on two occasions for my business branding photo shoots. Her enthusiasm is unmatched and she really understands how to elevate your look; She pushed me out of my comfort zone and took my photos to another level. In addition to helping me choose my outfits, Cristina is a whiz with makeup application; She came to my house to apply my makeup prior to my photo session. She knew exactly how to make everything pop, without making me look overdone. She is super fun to work with! She loves all the glitter and glam and adds that special touch to everything she does!

I can’t stop looking at my closet! It feels like those movies where they take the woman and make her a princess with a makeover! You were so professional, mixed with the perfect combination of fun. I HATE shopping and have always said I wish my closet could just be magically filled with clothes. Well, you did that! From our initial call, to the closet clean out and then the shopping, everything was easy, comfortable and perfect. I’ll use your tips and tricks; You have given me a whole new set of style know how. Your services were more than worth it, and I will be telling everyone they have to do this!

I recently hired Cristina to help style me for a branding photo shoot that I worked on for my home-decorating business. From the initial conversation, I just knew she was a perfect fit. As a small business owner and mom of three, I didn't have a lot of time to spend trying to figure out what would look best in photos and I didn't have hours to spend trying endless clothes on. In one visit to my home, she shopped my closet, and styled looks that I didn't even think to pull together. It was fun, fast and efficient. She styled my outfits from head -to-toe and I loved that she pulled from what I already had. We made a small shopping list and then she found all the items for me and within my budget. All of this was done weeks before my photo shoot so I felt prepared and ready to look amazing! She went above and beyond and you truly can see her work comes from the heart. She is very talented, professional and honest. Every girl needs a Cristina! She is totally worth it!"I feel like I have a whole new wardrobe and I can actually see my clothes, shoes and bags, because they are organized and color coded. Thank you so much!!!!!

I am someone who used to feel so up on fashion and trends, but as I got older, I felt less secure in what I was wearing and how things looked on me. I recently launched a new business and initially wanted some help from Cristina to pull some looks for a photo shoot. Once we had our initial consult chat, she said first things first, let’s “shop your closet” before we purchase new clothing. Within just a couple of hours, I had so many new looks to wear using pieces from my existing wardrobe. Some items I swore off and didn’t feel great in, but Cristina showed me an updated way to style them and helped me feel confident in the way I was wearing them again. Plus, styling shoes and accessories and pushing me out of my comfort zone on that end was even better! I am excited for her recommendations and for her to help me shop for some updates and and new basics I need now to really round out my closet, so in Cristina’s words, I can love my closet again! I am already on my way there and feeling more confident in styling myself with all the tips and tricks she shared with me.
