Alyssa has been putting looks together since her days of playing dress-up in her mom’s closet as a little girl. Mixing and matching pieces became an obsession, and she started dressing her friends and family. Watching their faces light up, she knew she wanted to work as a stylist. Alyssa’s goal with new customers is to make that initial connection, so she can help them shop as a trusted friend as they express themselves. “Be you, no matter what,” she says. “Remember that style is what you make out of fashion.”
