What Clients Say About Laurie

Mary McDonough's Story

Laurie Chesbrough is amazing and all I can say is CALL HER! You can't get her into your closet fast enough! There are so many facets to Laurie's One-On-One makeover and it's so much more than I could have anticipated . I am so happy with the results and already feel more confident. It was great to know why I gravitated to certain types of clothes but never managed to buy the right ones. Somehow, I would end up with a bunch of random looks that weren't "me" or were somehow "just not right". Laurie showed me the "how" and "why" of my own instincts and used her expertise to make my clothes work.

My own experience with Laurie resulted in an external style change that was achieved through her remarkable care and insight. It's incredible how Laurie individualized her work to create a new, comfortable, revitalized, and inspired me. It wasn't just about colors, measurements, sizes or discarding the old, it's SO MUCH more.

Throughout my career I've worked with costumers, stylists and designers but none of them could have done what Laurie did for me. And, don't confuse Laurie with these people, she is completely different. "Wardrobe professionals" often want to make you into their idea of you---to put you in a "current" look that's actually not authentic because it's not YOU. Laurie's specialized approach is a whole person experience. It's about your whole life and achieving your authentic style. She took ME and made ME better. She listened closely to find out exactly who I am. Her knack for identifying me, who I am, and what's comfortable for me made all the difference.

P.S. Miraculously, in one hour, she had my fiancé's "work look" completely overhauled. He's grateful and so am I. He's now getting compliments at the office and even had someone ask him if he had a job interview!!!

Jenni's Story -"I've Been "Lauried!"

"Lauried v. 1. Allowing the expert Laurie Chesbrough to present the best of your physical person. 2. The process of being transformed. 3. To emerge as a completely pulled together person and professional with a style that truly suits you as an individual.

I am quite pleased to announce to any and all that I have been Lauried in the last 2 months. What does this mean? First, see the definition above. Then, let me explain… I own a multi-million dollar business. I am incredibly excellent at what I do, and have been doing it successfully for over a decade. I am also a very happy wife and mother of two middle school children. The one thing in my life at which I felt I was not excelling was in the way I presented my personal being, myself, in both my professional and personal worlds. I did not know where to seek advice on how to be a better version of myself in the physical sense.

I heard about Laurie Chesbrough and her service as an image consultant and decided to give it a try. In a matter of weeks, Laurie completely transformed me into the version of myself that I have always wanted to be. I now look as confident, sharp and pulled together as the work that I do. And this new version of me is completely in harmony with the work I do and the life I lead.

Several months ago, I was hired by a competitor to present some seminars at an international educational event, and I considered this to be quite a feather in my cap. I just returned from this event, where I met with many of my peers for the first time since my transformation. I floated through the event on a wave of comments along the likes of "you look so incredible/happy/young/alive/fantastic, what is going on?" My presentations were rock-solid, and knowing that I was looking as good as my information only improved my ability to deliver at crunch time.

Being Lauried has changed my perspective of who I am, for myself, my family and for my industry in a manner that is having ongoing benefits. I am thrilled with the new me and am enjoying these benefits wholeheartedly and on a daily basis!"

Allan's Story - Electable Style

"On election day I had one of the most powerful politicians in the state of Massachusetts pull up next to me. He rolled down his window and said good luck to me. As I was thanking him for his kind words, he said "no matter what happens today, Jay, you look great!"

"I thought back for a minute and said to myself Laurie is the real deal! Laurie is Laurie Chesbrough who is my fashion "Guru". She has worked all over the country and now is based out of the east coast. She made me, a jeans and t-shirt guy into a first class local politician with the clothing styles she has dressed me in. She is the best in the business, make no mistake. I think back quite frequently to that day and say to myself "thanks Laurie, you’re the best."

Carol's Story - Ageless

"After a 23 year career in the field of law, I found myself involved in my retirement years. With those years came the opportunity to become involved in a California cosmetics company. For the next five years I spent my time building a $5 million dollar business -- from one lifestyle extreme to another. My closet was brimming with unused three piece business suits - I then went to Chico's expandable specials as I was traveling all of the time. I was feeling less and less "glamorous" and more and more "matronly" as time passed."

Enter Laurie Chesbrough who took me from a 60 year old "expandable" specialist to a thong wearing "diva" who is looking like someone in her middle 50's if not less. Laurie took me out of my "matronly" ways to my cinched waist, sling belts, modern "chic" look. What she did for my self-esteem is indescribable -- not to mention my business associates and customers who want to "dress like me", be me at this age.

Laurie is professional, energetic and has a feeling for not only style but has the ability to match one's personality to the way they should be styled - thus the transition in how they feel about themselves as well as how they carry themselves.”

Don's Story – Less is Better

"I've always worn clothes well. Everything fits perfectly, right off the rack. And that's the way I've dressed - right off the rack. I always looked good and felt good, but something was missing. Then Laurie entered my life, and my closet. Out went the old conservative suits and baggy jeans; replaced by STYLISH new things. It only took a few items to dramatically change the way I felt - new Lucky Brand jeans, a new suit, a few ties, new shoes. Mostly she worked with what I had and brought it together and made it so much better. I have never felt so good in clothes or confident in the way I look in them. Rack Man to GQ in one easy transition - Laurie is a magician!"

Jackie – Fashion Fun

"Laurie makes fashion fun and effortless. I haven’t had a bad clothes day in 3 years, since meeting her. I always know what to wear and feel confident, beautiful, and appropriate while still pushing boundaries in fun and smart ways. Laurie has remade my closet from top to bottom, from funky casual to the most impressive professional clothes.

The "return on investment" for the Laurie experience is much higher than I was achieving myself. Unlike many other fashion consultants, she’s not pushing a particular line or style of clothes. She advises for the whole "portrait", including jewelry, shoes, and bags. I buy fewer pieces that are timeless and wear all of them. I also waste no time (that’s none) shopping for clothes anymore; as a professional woman and mom, I appreciate anyone who saves me time. That alone would be a worthwhile cost savings, but the fun is what really drives value from Laurie’s work. For the first time in my life, I consistently get compliments and questions about my clothes (where DID you get that?!). I’ve never had that eye for fashion, but Laurie is my ticket to the club. PRICELESS."
