STYLE | CONFIDENCE | RENEWAL
Your closet may be having an identity crisis.
You don’t have to.
You’re not dressing for the life you used to have. You’re dressing for the life you’re creating.
Let’s rediscover your style, reclaim your confidence, and have a whole lot more fun with the woman you are now—and the woman you’re becoming.
"Style is the doorway. Self-discovery is the conversation."
There's more possibility in your closet than you think.
Let's find it together.
You can love your clothes and still feel a little lost in them.
Or stare into your closet and think, "Honestly? I don't like a damn thing in here." Sigh.
Sometimes it’s hard to pinpoint what’s missing. You just know that the clothes that once felt so right don’t feel quite like you anymore.
Maybe your body has changed or your work has changed. You’re dating again, starting something new, or finally making a little more room for yourself. Perhaps you’ve spent years dressing for a workplace, a role, or everyone else’s expectations - somewhere along the way, parts of you got tucked away, too.
So you reach for the familiar things because they’re easy, even when they don’t excite you. Or you buy something lovely, bring it home, and think, “Now what?” Another beautiful top, but still no outfit. Ugh.
You might even tell yourself you’ll figure it out when you lose the weight, have somewhere to go, or feel more confident.
If any of that sounds familiar, I get it. I’ve had my own “Who is THAT in the mirror?” moments (and they haven't always been fun). I know how unsettling it can feel when getting dressed, something you once enjoyed, or maybe didn't even give much thought to - becomes one more thing you can’t quite figure out.
You deserve to feel good in your clothes now—even while you’re figuring out what comes next.
Maybe you’re craving more ease, a little polish, or a playful detail - or you're curious about letting your feminine, sensual or adventurous side out to play. You get to choose. And that side of you? I bet she'd love an invitation. ;)
Let's make getting dressed feel good again.
I start with the whole YOU: your personality, your body, your life, and what makes you feel beautiful, confident, and at ease.
Together, we’ll uncover your unique Style Recipe, connecting what you want your clothes to express (and feel like) with the right fit, proportions, and little details that bring it to life. That becomes our guide as we put your outfits together, so they reflect your personality and feel right for your life.
Starting with you and your Style Recipe is the key to making sure you feel like YOU. Not me. Not the client I worked with last week. YOU.
Then, we’ll explore what’s already in your closet and try fresh combinations, adding a few unexpected details and a little encouragement to experiment along the way. There may be a few “Wait—I can wear those together?” moments as you discover what works, why it works, and how to make your own.
We'll give your wardrobe a little more intention - and you a whole lot more breathing room. Ahhhh.
Imagine having outfits ready for the life you’re living, and saying “YES!” to an invitation without the “But what will I wear?” panic. Getting ready can be part of the fun.
Less time wondering what to wear. More time living the life you want.
My favourite part is that moment when you catch your reflection and think, “Oh, THERE I am!” You feel seen—even if, for now, it’s simply by the woman looking back at you in the mirror. And this time, you don’t just recognize her. You’re excited about who she’s becoming.
Style that inspires without intimidating, with space to have a little fun with who you're becoming.
Life just got a little more interesting! ;)
Hi, I'm Leslie.
Certified Image Consultant. Wardrobe Stylist. Make-up Artist. Certified Perimenopause & Menopause Coach.
And a woman with a changing body, a new chapter, and absolutely no intention of fading into the wallpaper.
I’ve spent more than 20 years helping women feel confident in how they show up. Today, I work with women 45+ whose bodies, lives, or priorities are changing — and who want their style to feel like them again.
My training as a Perimenopause & Menopause Coach has given me an even deeper understanding of just how much can shift during this stage of life — our bodies, our confidence, our roles, our priorities, and sometimes even the way we see ourselves.
And yes, I’m right here in this more interesting age, too. The changing body. The new chapter. The feeling that there’s more of you waiting to come out.
One of my favourite moments? When a woman lights up at her reflection—and starts seeing possibilities again.
My own style? Sophisticated, but not stuffy. Feminine, but not precious. Contemporary, but not a slave to trends. And always a little unexpected. ;)
Your style will have its own story. Together, we’ll find the clothes, combinations, and little details that make you think, “Mmmmm. Yes. That’s me.” And maybe a few that make you smile and say, “Oh, I didn’t know I had that in me!”
Because this is definitely a more interesting age!
SERVICES
Style that starts with YOU.
For decades, I’ve worked with women and their wardrobes — and along the way, I’ve developed and refined a Style Discovery process designed to uncover something much more interesting than what you should wear:
What feels like YOU.
Before we meet, you’ll complete a few guided Style Discovery exercises. Then we’ll explore what they reveal together — what you’re drawn to, how you want to feel in your clothes, and what you want them to say about you. I’ll ask questions and we’ll find those common threads. I promise, there’s usually something interesting hiding in there. ;)
Together, we’ll turn those discoveries into your personal Style Recipe — a collection of words and ideas that becomes our North Star for everything we do. We’ll explore how clothes interact with the body you have right now, and where you might be ready to stretch your style a little.
And then we get into your closet.
Because great style doesn’t have to begin with a shopping spree. Most women already own far more possibility than they realize. I'll bet the same may be true for you.
We’ll uncover your wardrobe rockstars, experiment with new combinations, play with the little details that change everything, and create 25–30 outfits you can’t wait to wear — for your real life, your plans and the places you want to go.
And I won’t just show you what works. I’ll teach you why. Why that proportion makes you feel fabulous. Why the piece you never reach for doesn’t quite feel right. Why one little tuck, cuff, layer or accessory suddenly brings an outfit to life.
So you leave with more than great outfits. You understand your style better, get more from the wardrobe investment you’ve already made, and feel confident choosing what earns its way into your closet next. And the most incredible part? Feeling more like yourself than you ever have.
Less wasted money. Less wondering what to wear. More confidence in what you already own — and in what you choose next.
Not my style. Not someone else’s style. Yours.
With room for the woman you’re becoming.
*Services are available in-person or via on-line consultation. Please inquire about the format that's right for you.
Shop Your Closet
$799 + tax
Your closet has a few tricks up its sleeve.
THIS IS FOR YOU IF...
Your closet is already full of good clothes — you’re just not getting enough from them.
Maybe you keep reaching for the same handful of outfits. You own pieces you love but never quite know how to wear. Your body or life has changed and some of your old formulas aren’t working anymore. Or you simply know there’s more possibility hanging in your closet than you can see on your own.
You don’t need to start over. You need a fresh set of eyes — and a plan.
Four hours together in your home, focused on making the most of what you already own. We’ll rediscover forgotten favourites, find fresh combinations, solve those “Why don’t I ever wear this?” mysteries, and create outfits for the life you’re actually living — and the things you want to say yes to.
You’ll understand what works and why—so you can keep the possibilities coming long after I leave.
YOUR EXPERIENCE INCLUDES:
- Your personal Style Recipe — Your Style Recipe becomes our guide for everything we do together — and a tool you can continue to use long after I leave. It helps me style you in a way that feels unmistakably you, and helps you make more confident choices for yourself: what belongs in your wardrobe, what might stretch your style in an exciting way, and what to leave on the rack.
You’ll also receive your Style North Star Summary — a handy at-a-glance guide for your phone that you can refer to when you’re shopping or getting dressed, so you can keep coming back to your style, with room for the woman you’re becoming.
- Understanding your body — as it is right now. We’ll explore your proportions and how clothes interact with your body, so you understand why some pieces sing and others just... don’t. You’ll discover the silhouettes, shapes and details that help you feel fabulous — without a list of outdated rules about what you “should” wear.
- The little tricks that change everything. We’ll play with shoes, accessories, proportions, tucks, cuffs, layers and those small styling adjustments that can take an outfit from “fine” to fabulous — so you know how to recreate the magic yourself.
- Your wardrobe rockstars. We’ll uncover the pieces that already work beautifully for you — including a few hidden gems you may have completely underestimated — and find fresh, sometimes unexpected ways to wear them. You may be surprised by just how much possibility is already hanging in your closet.
- 25–30 outfits you can’t wait to wear. Together, we’ll create fresh combinations from the clothes you already own — for your real life, your plans and the places you want to go. We’ll photograph every one, so when you’re wondering what to wear, the answer is already waiting for you.
- Your personalized Style Guidebook + Outfit Lookbook. Everything we discover comes home with you — your body and proportion guidance, illustrated examples of the shapes and styles that work beautifully for you, and photos of the outfits we create together. It’s your personal style reference to return to when you’re getting dressed, deciding what to buy, or need a little inspiration.
Because remembering every fabulous combination? That’s what the book is for!
- Two weeks of follow-up style support. Trying a new combination? Wondering whether that lovely top will actually work with what you own? Send me an outfit photo or shopping link, and we’ll talk it through. I’ll explain what works, what you might adjust, and how it connects to your Style Recipe—so you can keep building confidence long after our closet session!
We’ll also decide what stays, what could use an alteration, and what’s ready for its next home — and create a focused shopping list for any gaps we uncover.
More possibilities. Less guesswork. And a closet you’re excited to get dressed from!
Your Complete Style Rediscovery
$1,995 + tax
“Where do I start?” to “Oh, THERE I am!”
THIS IS FOR YOU IF...
Something bigger has shifted.
Maybe it’s your body. Your career. A relationship. The way you spend your days. Or perhaps nothing dramatic happened at all — you’ve simply changed, and somewhere along the way your wardrobe stopped feeling like you.
You’re not just looking for a few new outfit combinations. You’re ready to understand what works for you now, rediscover what feels like you, and thoughtfully build a wardrobe that supports the life you’re living — and the one you’re creating.
You’re not looking for a whole new you. You’re ready for your wardrobe to catch up with the woman you’re becoming.
Your Complete Style Rediscovery begins with the full Shop Your Closet experience — because before we decide what you need, we’re going to discover just how much possibility you already own.
Then, with your Style Recipe as our guide and a clear understanding of what’s working, what isn’t and what’s genuinely missing, we’ll thoughtfully fill the gaps.
Your work. Your weekends. That dinner invitation. The trip you’re planning. The opportunities you want to say yes to. We’ll build your wardrobe around the life you actually want to be dressed for.
YOUR EXPERIENCE INCLUDES:
- Everything included in Shop Your Closet: We’ll start with the full four-hour experience — rediscovering your style, understanding your body as it is now, uncovering the possibilities already hiding in your wardrobe, and creating 25–30 outfits you can’t wait to wear PLUS your personalized Style Guidebook + Outfit Lookbook. .
- A shopping plan with a purpose. Once we know what you already have, we’ll identify what’s actually missing — and prioritize the pieces that will make the biggest difference for your lifestyle, your wardrobe and your budget. No shopping just for the sake of shopping.
- Shopping, without the overwhelm. Armed with your Style Recipe, your shopping plan and everything I’ve learned about you, I’ll do the hunting first — sourcing pieces specifically for you through a mix of online and in-store research.
Then, where it makes sense, we’ll spend 3–4 hours shopping together, trying things on, experimenting a little, and finding the pieces that earn their way into your wardrobe.
- Bringing it all together. Once the new pieces come home, we’ll meet again for a final 60–90-minute closet session and put them to work. We’ll mix them with what you already own, create even more outfit possibilities, and make sure those carefully chosen additions don’t just live in your closet — they earn their place in your life.
- A full month of follow-up style support. Your new pieces are home. The outfits are photographed. And you’ve got me in your corner while you make it all your own. Send me outfit photos, shopping links or those “Does this work?” questions for practical feedback that helps you understand your choices and grow more confident making them yourself.
A wardrobe that feels like YOU. Outfits you can’t wait to wear. And the confidence to show up fully—as the woman you are and the woman you’re becoming.
Don't see quite the right fit?
Not every style challenge fits neatly into a package. Maybe you have a special event or trip coming up, need help preparing for a new chapter, want some focused shopping support or a make-up lesson — or, simply have something different in mind.
Let’s create a styling experience made to measure for you.
Tell me what you need, and we’ll start there.
Second Act Style
Your next chapter deserves a style all its own.
Something exciting is taking shape: a small-group style experience for women 45+ who are ready to find their style again—and discover what else might be waiting to come out and play.
We’ll explore what feels like you now, try fresh possibilities with clothes you already own, and stretch your style comfort zone a little. I’ll guide you through it with practical styling know-how, plenty of encouragement, and other women who understand the changing-body, changing-life feeling of “Oh good. It’s not just me!”
Room to experiment. Permission to surprise yourself. And more ease getting dressed for the life you want to live.
More confidence. More self-expression. And a whole lot more fun getting dressed.
Details are still coming together. Want to be among the first to hear?
Give your next event a little style—and something to buzz about.
I speak about style, confidence, and finding yourself again when life changes — bringing practical insights, a fresh perspective and a few dressing-room stories of my own.
Expect practical ideas, honest conversation, and a few laughs of recognition. “Oh, you too?” We’ll explore how clothes can help us express who we are now — and feel ready for what’s next.
My aim? Women leave feeling seen, encouraged, and excited to try something for themselves. Recognizing, “I can do that!” Yes, you absolutely can.
Speaking engagements and workshops are tailored to your audience. Let’s talk about what would resonate with your group.
Creating a Beautiful Life
What would make your life feel more beautiful to you?
Not more impressive.
Not more productive.
Not more perfectly put together.
More yours.
On December 2nd, join us in Calgary for an evening built around a simple idea:
What if creating a more beautiful life isn’t about adding MORE — but becoming more intentional about what’s already there?
Because somewhere along the way, life changes.
Our bodies change. Our relationships change. Careers shift. Priorities move. The things that once fit — sometimes literally — don’t always fit anymore.
And yet we can keep moving through our days surrounded by habits, belongings, clothes and patterns that belonged to an earlier version of our lives.
Creating a Beautiful Life is an invitation to look again.
At your mind.
At your presence.
At your home.
At the life you’re already living.
Not from a place of What do I need to fix?
But from a much more interesting question:
What would make this life feel more like mine?
Three women. Three different areas of expertise. One beautifully connected conversation.
Your Presence — Leslie Woods
Does the way you show up on the outside reflect the woman you’ve become on the inside? We’ll explore what happens when your clothes, your body and your life have changed — and your style hasn’t quite caught up. This isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about rediscovering what feels like you now, and dressing for the life you’re creating.
Your Mind — Cicilia Hartley
What if some of the things keeping you stuck aren't conscious choices at all? Cicilia will take us inside the hidden brain patterns influencing our relationships, confidence, health and success — and what becomes possible when those patterns begin to change.
Your Home — Cindi Banman
What we keep, what we release and what surrounds us every day matters. Cindi will explore how our physical spaces can support the lives we want to live — or quietly steal our peace.
Different areas. Same bigger idea:
You don't need to be someone else to create a more beautiful life.
Maybe you simply need to be more intentional with the one you already have.
Come for an evening of conversation, reflection and fresh perspective — and leave with new ways of looking at what’s already in your life.
And because beautiful evenings are even better shared...
