Intuitive Personal Styling and Guidance

Hi my name is Barbra Horowitz of Intuitive Personal Styling & Guidance. Great news! I am the number one most hired stylist on Thumbtack with over 450 clients🙏just like you, who found me via Thumbtack. You are in excellent hands. Part of my success is I offer my deluxe complimentary Closet Tour which is a 50 minute part phone/part remote look at you, and your current wardrobe. Once we schedule your day and time, I will share how your Closet Tour works. 2025 is the year I celebrate 21 years as a personal stylist. I am offering your first two hours at my 2004 rates of $175 an hour. Over $125 an hour savings. Then enjoy an additional $100 off per hour at $200 an hour. My normal client rates are $300 an hour. Please note if you are being approached with large packages by your other stylist selections, It is not necessary to pay thousands of dollars with lengthy time commitments unless you would like to. Styling with me is quick and efficient with my 3 session process, maybe you only need Step 1. This is why it’s critical to shop from your closet first. Look how lucky I am for when I began my styling career along with my entire body of work beginning at 10 years old.✨ British Vogue covered the launch of my remote styling services in 2008. I am the earliest influencer with over 17 years of remote styling. I have worked in 12 states in person, around the country, and pockets of the world in person, and remote . I worked in NY, and all areas around for over 15 years, flying in for all the end of season sales. I worked in the Bay Area ( I grew up in San Mateo, then San Francisco) for over 10 years in person. Here is my 3 step process. Step 1 RESET*RESTYLE*SHOP YOUR CLOSET Restyle fits in ways you never knew were available to you in your own wardrobe. Text you screenshots for daily wardrobe planning or trips. Release clothing you are attached to but are not sure how to move forward from. Create a list of supplemental shopping pieces (if needed) to elevate, and update your wardrobe and your style. Step 2 CUSTOM CURATED REMOTE SHOPPING Together we send the dressing room to your home of 💯% returnable pieces. I shop for you and you check out. No commitment except to get excited for your FITTING/STYLING session. Shopping sessions are approximately 2-3 hours. No dressing rooms, bright lights, running around your local mall. I can access more options and I shop only on resale/sale for you! Step 3 FUTURE SELF FITTING/STYLING Together we will identify curated pieces with flexibility and longevity in multiple categories for your life. I will take pictures of all completed styled looks, and text you screenshots. Leaving you with the perfect FUTURE SELF capsule wardrobe. Simply wardrobe plan from your phone each day and enjoy the compliments. You can also work with me via text only, if you are just looking for advice on daily outfits. My services include: Conference/Panel/Speaking Date Night Gifting Styling-Birthdays/Holidays Going back to the office - Pandemic/Pregnancy Life Shifts - Divorce to Dating Life Moment Styling/Events Remote Photo Shoot Styling Trip Styling -Business/Vacations About me ~~~~~~~~~ I have been very fortunate to be covered in major press outlets such as British Vogue, Daily Candy, Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles magazine, LA Weekly, In Style - People Magazine/Stylewatch, Pure Wow, and many more. I am one of the very first remote stylists and one of the very first stylists on Thumbtack. I am the published author of Closet Control published by Sterling Press in 2007. I had a very early style podcast produced by California Psychics called Fashion 411 - It’s never just about the clothing. After 8 years of handling and developing top models in San Francisco and Hollywood. Some of these models went on to become huge celebrities today. I began my career at 10 years old at my father’s men’s suit store in the financial district of San Francisco called Executive Clothes. I grew up around a tailor. My family is several generations of dress manufacturers, menswear reps and tailors. I worked in retail for over 10 years for well known retailers such as: Contempo Casuals, Ann Taylor, Nordstrom, Guess, Lancôme. I have a great eye as well as knowing what clothing should cost. I shop clients online through planet 🌎 friendly resale and sale versus retail. My father’s store was high end menswear at wholesale prices. ****************************************** where I share (in my stories) planet friendly style, and styling tips. Congratulations working with me already makes you part of the solution around owning a more sustainable wardrobe for yourself, and our planet. Welcome to the circular economy by Restyling your closet first. Mindfully shopping second. This is exactly how I will curate the pieces that we will acquire for you. Fashion is the number two offender to our environment behind agriculture. I am based at the beach in Los Angeles, California after living in Hollywood for over 15 years. (Now this is the part where if you have never worked with a stylist before you believe the person you hire needs to be in person. Which means the small percentage of you who aren’t letting experience be your compass are not understanding why Thumbtack has presented me to you as “serves your location”) it’s quite possible that you do not have a stylist with my level of experience where you live. People magazine called me Hollywood’s personal stylist. Without a doubt, I have dressed my share of celebrities. Styling is the perfect portal to your intentions and manifesting energy. I will add efficiency and value to your life coupled with immense joy. Your wardrobe tells your story of where you have been, how you were raised, and how your family participated in getting dressed. Your struggle is not imagined. Good news is, fashion and styling are my families story. It’s second nature. It is intuitive for me. It’s 48 of my 58 years. So Why do I have a longtime career as a personal stylist? One word: "Never." "I NEVER would have bought that." "I NEVER would have put that together." "I NEVER would have thought of that" I have consulted for boutiques and was one ☝️ of the very first upcyclers of reworked tee shirts from Goodwill with a Custom cut T shirt line called Rigged Tee Shirt Couture. Traveling the sample sale circuit to Chicago, New York, London, and San Francisco and carried in major boutiques. I was hired by brands like Air Jordan, Forever 21, Nike, Skyy vodka to cut up custom tops from oversized branded T-shirts for the brands guests at launch parties, movie premieres, private parties. Barbra recalls how the people around her inspired the decision to become a professional stylist. “My cousin Betsy came to me one day, explaining, ‘Barbra, I feel good on the inside, I want to match it up on the outside. Can you help me with that thing you do in the closets?’ I answered, ‘The family parlor tricks?’ My mom has been selling her and our clothing way before eBay, and moving furniture and cutting up clothing were sort of the family mantra,” she shares. “Add in my father owning a high-end menswear store at a discount. Watching a tailor custom-fit suits didn’t hurt my understanding for fit as one of the most important elements of style.” According to Barbra, simply style and fashion are about development—what you don’t know, learn, and what you do know, teach. “This is how the family parlor tricks became a business, and a book by Sterling Press called Closet Control,” she says. *interview excerpted from Southbay Magazine non
