Brooklyn-based stylist Liz Teich has been styling for brands and advertising clients for more than a decade. Recently, Liz has incorporated personal styling and closet cleansing services, which has proven to be a life-saver for busy moms in New York, just like herself.

Liz’s passion for fashion started as a child when she created custom dresses for her Barbies or designed new looks with her favorite toy, Fashion Plates. As a Gemini and natural communicator who loves people, she was practically born for the role. Liz’s style philosophy? “Clothes should make you feel confident and like you can take on the world,” says Liz. “If it doesn't, it's not worth wearing”. Her go-to fashion staple is a great jacket or blazer to transform any look, and she swears by felt hangers to streamline and organize a closet. “I like to set up their closets like I do for my shoots ̶ items separated by category and then in color order from light to dark.” She’ll even take photos of complete looks and organize them on her clients’ phones in seasonal albums to make the getting-ready morning dash a bit easier. (Talk about the VIP treatment!)
