A New Avenue
Posted by Alexandra Evjen on February 8, 2010 | 7 Comments
At the very end of 2009, I left all of you with, basically, a big question mark as to where my future in the fashion industry was headed. School, for the most part, is out of the picture. However, that is NOT going to stop me from doing what I feel I have been “called” to do. In fact, continually ignoring this passion seems like it’s almost in direct disobedience to my soul. So, what am I going to do?
Well, I would like to become a stylist/image consultant/personal shopper to the average man or woman. Without recognizing it, this is a service that I have done for my friends and family since the age of 13. From applying wedding makeup to telling my mom she had too much black in her closet, my fashion advice has been flowing freely.
It energizes me to think about making your closet organized, making your shopping experience enjoyable, creating outfits that express who you are with the clothes that you stare at every morning while saying, “I have nothing to wear,” helping your confidence shine with flattering makeup and/or helping you venture out into other styles that you have always admired but thought that you could never pull off.
So, in order to do this I need something from you. I need you to take one minute to answer ten questions. If you are feeling extra generous, I would love for you to pass this survey along to your friends and family. It doesn’t matter if you live in Arizona or not. I would just like to get a feel of whether or not people would be interested in this service.
Okay…ready…set….go! Click here to take survey

I could have used this service on Saturday to keep me from having the ‘i don’t know what to wear’ argument with my husband. we intended to go to breakfast but ended up in time for lunch. this happens all the time.
Is this kind of like “what not to wear” I have been nominated mult times.
amber – totally! i would make a photo board for you to hang in your closet of all the outfits. then you wouldn’t have to think about getting dressed in the morning. you would just have to worry about your clothes being washed.
yasmine – definitely like what not to wear, but it’s not just for the fashionably challenged. it could even be for the fashion lover that gets tired of her wardrobe.
Alex! I’m so proud of you for doing this! How funny that 1. You sent me the link for TomKat and then I got hired and 2. I texted you just last week saying you should do EXACTLY THIS and you were already on your way! Ha! Are we kindred spirits or what? I can’t wait to see you finally living out your passion- school or no school, you’ll be so great at this! Love you, friend!
thanks, andrea! i love you so much! we definitely are kindred spirits! i’ve always thought that.
i will be one of your biggest cheerleaders!
and i was just telling adrian i can totally see you on the morning shows here doing segments on your wardrobe advice!
i am so excited to see what happens with this!
alex – so… you are calling me fashionably challenged?
