Caption tips: What to tell your coach
1) Occasion: WHERE you are wearing your outfit?
2) Vibe: WHAT you are going for?
With this information, your style coach can personalize their feedback to your lifestyle and your goals. It also helps you become more intentional about your outfits. If you can’t define your desired “vibe”, check out our style aesthetic analysis for help in clarifying your style direction.
Caption tips: What you can ask your coach
-
How can I make this outfit more...?
You know what doesn’t feel right- so ask your style coach to help you make the outfit more wearable for you. Do you want the outfit to be more comfortable, more youthful or more edgy? Are you looking for a way to make the outfit more weather-appropriate or work-appropriate? Giving your style coach a sense of your goals will help you get the most useful feedback possible.
-
I don't know what that item is. Can you send me an example?
Don’t be embarrassed if you don’t know what your style coach is recommending- it’s hard to keep up with all the fashion lingo! If you don’t know what an item is, feel free to ask for an example. Your style coach will share an image and you will go “Oooohhh.” Problem solved.
-
What kind of ... would I pair with this outfit?
We do recommend sending in a complete outfit photo, but it’s totally fine to ask about an element you’re unsure about. Maybe you love the look but you’re not sure what kind of bag goes with it. Or maybe you’ve nailed the top and bottom but need help with the jacket. Feel free to ask for your style coach’s input on finishing your look!
-
I wouldn't wear ... Is there anything else you'd recommend?
If your style coach recommends something that isn’t really your style- feel free to ask for a different recommendation. Your style coach will get to know you and your style persona over time. If you’re not sure what vibe you are going for- consider our style aesthetic analysis to help you clarify your style direction.
-
Does this item/outfit look outdated?
Your style coach is well-versed in what is modern and current. If you’re on the fence about a specific item or outfit, get your style coach to weigh in on how to modernize it.
-
Do these colors wash me out?
Although your style coach won’t do a full color analysis on each outfit (check out our color and body type analysis for that), she will be happy to weigh in on the colors you’ve chosen for your outfit- especially up near your face. Be sure you have good lighting if you want input on color!
-
Should I buy this?
Trying on new items you’ve purchased (with the tags on) and getting your style coach’s input is a great way to use the Style Club. Your style coach can make sure that it fits with your style goals and is flattering, before you add it to your wardrobe
-
How could I style these pieces differently later?
Sometimes we do need that one-off dress or suit for a special occasion. But you can actually style those formal pieces differently and wear them in your everyday life! Your style coach has a zillion outfit ideas just in their heads- so pick their brain on how to do so!
-
What type of ... should I look for?
If your style coach recommends an item, but you’re getting lost looking for one, get a more specific recommendation! They can easily recommend a silhouette, style, or color that would work well with your outfit and save you lots of scrolling time.
