In this episode of Style POV, I’m joined by JenniLee, a New York-based stylist and image consultant whose work has spanned red carpets, major fashion publications, and now—real wardrobes for real women. She’s styled icons like Lauryn Hill, Scarlett Johansson, and Greta Gerwig, but what truly sets her apart is her belief that fashion isn’t just about what you wear—it’s a way to come home to yourself.
After two decades in celebrity styling, JenniLee shifted her focus to everyday women navigating life transitions and craving clarity, confidence, and ease in their wardrobes. Through her bespoke programs and signature Spark Framework, she helps clients use style as a form of self-care and intentional living.
In this episode, we unpack why getting dressed can feel especially overwhelming during big life changes, how to create more with less, and what it looks like to get dressed from a place of story, not just strategy. JenniLee also shares two practical tips you can try today to start making your wardrobe work for you—not the other way around.
If you’ve ever felt like style was something you had to chase—or if you’re looking to build a wardrobe that reflects who you are now—this one’s for you.
