There are two things that immediately attract me to a startup, especially a tech startup:
- An idea that makes you go, “Why didn’t I think of that?”
- A female leader (or leaders)
So naturally, my interest was not only piqued, but entirely captivated by a new tech startup out of Brooklyn, NYC – Style for Hire. Style for Hire is a genius idea, a business that brings you a network of personal stylists nationwide who are handpicked by fashion maven and “What Not to Wear” veteran Stacy London. From close audits to personal shopping in a city of your choice, whatever your needs might be, Style for Hire will do the work for you. They’ll find a stylist in your area, one who works for you, allow you to interview/speak with the stylist before you begin, and pay easily through their channels to ensure your experience is streamlined and easy as pie.
Whether you know it or not, you might just need a style pick-me-up. But the hardest part is knowing who to reach out to and how to begin the relationship. Style for Hire does it for you. Check them out on their website by clicking here to learn more about them and find a stylist in your area. Do it! If for no other reason than to support women who have A) a great idea and B) ummm…are women.
