My Story
​

Jana Coke, Founder & Stylist 
I didn't set out to become a wardrobe stylist.  My dream career as a teen was to become the PR director of a major fashion brand. The idea of being surrounded by beautiful clothes and being a BOSS sounded exciting and glamorous. After attending FIDM in Los Angeles, my career begin as a department manager for Nordstrom.  I put my Marketing degree to use as I worked alongside the department's buyers in inventory planning and budgeting.  I learned the difference between a customer and a client and established a solid book of business. A cross country move to New York City to attend LIM College for an additional degree solidified my interest in entrepreneurship. My high school dream career switched gears when I decided at age 23 to launch a direct-to-consumer handbag company. ​

​I loved working 1 on 1 with my clients! Getting to know their style preferences and creating a bag that was to their exact preferences was a joyous experience. It was more than just a service. It was becoming a ministry. 

While my handbag business grew, I jumped into the wholesale side of the fashion industry, eventually landing a boss gig as the Director of Merchandising for a luxury jewelry brand. It was a very stressful position that challenged all my knowledge in financial forecasting, product development, and business development.  In 2007, I left that company and transformed my handbag business into a wardrobe consulting  agency.

 My desire to see women walk in their confidence, to provide solutions they didn't believe were possible is what confirms my identity as a personal stylist.  It is my calling and my ministry. I hope to one day make you feel glamorous in beautiful clothes!
