Work on your closet
Everything I'd tell you if I were standing there.
Fifteen years at a consignment counter taught me that the closet problem is almost never a shopping problem. These are the ways I can help with it — on your own, or with me in the room.

If you're not sure where the problem is, start here. It takes a few minutes.
Which S do you need most?
A short self-assessment against the 4S Framework. It tells you which part of your closet to deal with first — and your results come with What Your Closet Is Telling You, the one-page workbook I'd walk you through in person.
Take the quiz →Do it on your own.
Self-paced, yours to keep, go at whatever speed the week allows.
The Closet Edit
About 45 minutes. The 4S Framework applied to your closet, the seven categories everything falls into, and a bonus Payback Plan module: exactly what to consign, what to sell online, what to donate and what to let go.
Get the Closet Edit →The Outfit Edit
You don't have nothing to wear. You have a closet full of pieces you love that you never combine. A repeatable way to build outfits from what you already own — without buying more, hiring a stylist, or starting over.
Get the Outfit Edit →The Life Edit
Six modules, and it goes well past the closet. For people who finished the Closet Edit and found it was about something bigger.
Go deeper →The Closet Edit tells you what stays. The Outfit Edit is how to wear what stayed.
Do it with me.
When you'd rather not do it alone — or you've started three times and stopped three times.
Power Hour with Ellen
One to one over FaceTime, in your closet, for an hour. You hold things up. I tell you what I'd do. You pick your time straight after checkout.
Book a Power Hour →The In-Home Closet Edit
Four hours, one to one, in your actual closet. You get a personal resale plan — what to consign, sell, donate, let go — and I take the consignment-ready pieces back to the shop with me.
The in-home edit →Every one of these ends the same way.
With a pile of clothes you're finished with, and gaps where things used to be.
That's the part most closet advice leaves you holding. I don't, because I own the shop that takes it.
Book a drop-off for the pile. Your split starts at 35% and climbs with what a piece resells for. Then come and look at the floor — name brands at 50 to 75% off retail, turning over constantly.
Clearing your closet and filling it are the same conversation. They always were.
