It is Q4. Your calendar (professionally and personally) is filling up with moments that matter. Year end budget presentations, board meetings, client dinners that could make or break deals. These aren’t just meetings. They’re visibility moments. The kind where people remember you (or they don’t).

The black suit feels safe, but boring. The dress feels too “trying.” You end up wearing the same thing you wore last quarter because you just don’t have time to figure out something new.

After a decade in corporate and now styling women at the top of their fields, let me tell you… You don’t need an endless wardrobe for these moments. You need pieces that feel powerful, not performative, every single time.

I’m giving you the exact formulas for the three most common high-stakes scenarios you’ll face between now and December 31st.
