"...So many times friends ask me what I think they should wear to a special event or where to shop for clothes. One night while out with my friends, we had been talking about possible new careers and one of my girlfriends (and she knows who she is) suggested I become a fashion stylist. She knows how much I love clothes and shoes and helping people. I researched the subject and determined that I wanted to work with people to help them find their own personal style. It's not about trashing you or your current wardrobe like you see on television, (remember TV needs to be entertaining) it's about exploring you and what you would like to achieve with your look.

There are so many areas in life where we want to look our best -- at the office, on a date, on vacation, when we have our photo taken, for a fancy black tie event. Why struggle going it on your own when you can have your own personal stylist!..."

ABOUT STYLE MATTERS

Jackie Rogers received her certification in Image Consulting in New York City over a period of two months and decided to start Style Matters. Jackie believes style really does matter in every aspect of our lives; not only in what we wear, but also in our homes and how we interact with one another. She believes that when you look good, you feel good and that she can help you coordinate a great wardrobe to take the stress out of having a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear.
