Errol K’s Summary
My professional experience involves walking with my clients through major stores or small boutiques, helping them shop - helping her/him find that next piece (or entire wardrobe) to complete or create that certain look. Sometimes the client just wants an opinion while they're shopping. . .someone there to offer advice.
Whether I'm in the dressing room folding a hem or tucking in the shirt as they stand looking in the mirror, the ultimate goal is making them look their best.
From shoes to belts to hats (or a new wardrobe closet to put them in, yes - sometimes even furniture), I'm able to offer the client different options.
