As a sleep consultant, I’m all about reducing stress wherever I can. And lately, my closet? A hot mess.
Between Zoom calls, filming content, and in-person events, I was stuck in a rut, rotating the same 5 outfits and quietly panicking before every shoot.
I didn’t want to keep buying clothes I’d wear once. I wanted smarter fashion that felt aligned with my lifestyle, so I booked a styling appointment at Armoire’s Seattle store.
Walking Into Armoire’s Seattle Store Felt… Peaceful?!
No joke, I walked into Armoire’s boutique in Pioneer Square and immediately felt my shoulders relax—no clutter, no chaos—just clothing neatly hung like they want to be touched.
It’s the opposite of your typical overstimulating retail experience. I was greeted with a smile and offered sparkling water (yes, please) before my stylist walked me through how it all worked.
There was no pressure to “buy,” no overwhelming racks to sift through. Just a conversation. A few Pinterest vibes. Not to be dramatic, but I wanted to move in.
The Styling Session I Didn’t Know I Needed
My stylist asked about everything—no judgment. No pressure. Just real questions about my life and what I needed my wardrobe to do.
I told her I needed looks that could handle a day of client calls, still photograph beautifully for social content, and wouldn’t wrinkle just from looking at them sideways.
She got it. And more than that, she pushed me—gently!—to try things I never would’ve picked off the rack myself. A cream-colored structured vest, I ended up loving. A floral midi dress that somehow felt cool instead of cutesy. A blazer that actually fits my shoulders (bless).
Everything was handpicked for me by a real stylist, not an algorithm.
Try-On Heaven (and Yes, the Lighting Was Great)
I don’t know who designed the fitting rooms at Armoire, but they deserve a raise. The mirrors were flattering and honest (a rare combo).
No clutter. No awkward “where do I hang this” moments. Just a cozy, low-pressure space to play with style.
We mixed and matched six high-quality, well-fitting items that could go from coffee runs to camera-ready. I left with a capsule wardrobe that actually worked for me.
Every piece felt high-quality, flattering, and easy to mix and match. I walked out with six looks that were basically plug-and-play for events, content shoots, and everyday life.
Why Rental Just Works for Me
As someone in front of the camera a lot, I need a closet that keeps up. But I don’t have time (or space) for a million one-and-done outfits.
That’s why Armoire’s rental plans are a game changer:
- The 4-item plan is just $89/month—you can rent four pieces and swap every 30 days.
- The 7-item plan starts at $99 for the first month, then $129/month, with swaps every 30 days.
- The Unlimited Plan gives you six items at a time with unlimited swaps for $149 the first month ($249/month after).
And get this:
✅ Free shipping & returns
✅ Cancel or pause anytime
✅ Free personal stylist support
✅ Coverage for minor damages
✅ Access to their full inventory
And let’s be honest—knowing I’m reducing textile waste by renting instead of buying makes me feel even better about the whole thing. Sleep and sustainability? Sign me up.
Would I Recommend It? Absolutely.
I walked out of the Seattle store with a spring in my step (and a blazer I’m obsessed with). If you’re a creative, a professional, or tired of feeling “meh” about your wardrobe, I highly recommend booking a styling session.
Especially if you’re in Seattle—go in person. It’s worth it.
So yeah, I’m obsessed. And I already booked my next swap. Learn more about Armoire’s Unlimited Plan and see what a stress-free closet feels like.
