HIRE ASHLEY

about

ashley

I've always believed that the most interesting wardrobes are built over time, not bought all at once. A great pair of jeans, a vintage belt, an unexpected accessory, or a piece from a designer you've never heard of. It's often the combination of familiar favorites and something a little unusual that makes personal style feel effortless.

As an Austin-based personal stylist, I love discovering under-the-radar designers, sourcing hard-to-find pieces, and helping clients develop wardrobes that reflect their individual tastes and lifestyles. My approach is less about following trends and more about finding the pieces you'll reach for again and again, with a few special things mixed in.

Whether we're rethinking what's already in your closet, sourcing something specific, or building a wardrobe from the ground up, my goal is to make getting dressed feel easier, more interesting, and entirely your own.

Because personal style is always evolving, I also offer annual styling memberships with seasonal wardrobe updates throughout the year. It's a way for us to build on what you already own, thoughtfully introduce new pieces, and keep your wardrobe feeling fresh and relevant.

I also share my latest discoveries, favorite finds, and current obsessions through my Substack, Smooth Boot Edit—a little window into everything that's catching my eye.

I work with clients in person in Austin, virtually, and through travel appointments where I come to you. If you are interested in travel rates, please get in touch at ashley@kakigaines.com
