In this episode of Style Chat, stylists Sarah Liller and Tami Daylami unpack one of their favorite topics in fashion: style icons—what they are, how to choose one, and how they can help you define your personal style.

They explore why it’s not just about copying your favorite celebrity, but about finding someone whose vibe, body type, or coloring reflects aspects of your own essence. From Kate Moss to Sienna Miller, Audrey Hepburn to Serena van der Woodsen, Sarah and Tami break down the common threads of iconic style and how to borrow what works (and leave the rest).

You’ll learn:

• How to identify your style icon(s) and why it’s okay to have more than one.
  
  
• Why body type, facial features, and even hair texture can influence what style inspiration works best for you.
  
  
• The real secret to a capsule wardrobe—and why those Pinterest-perfect beige collections aren’t cutting it.
  
  
• How to take inspiration and turn it into a wearable, personal, and stylish wardrobe that feels like you.
  
  

Plus: the blazer breakdown (Kate Middleton vs. Kate Moss), the “cocktail attire” myth, and why thrifting with your style icon in mind can be the most fun way to build your closet.

Tune in, laugh along, and walk away with practical tools for discovering your style essence—and how to dress for it with confidence.

In this heartfelt and info-packed episode of the Style Chat Podcast, professional stylists Sarah Liller and Tami Daylami break down what personal styling really means—and why it has nothing to do with red carpets or celebrity wardrobes.

Whether you're someone who hasn’t shopped in years and lives in a work-from-home uniform, or your closet is overflowing with clothes you don’t know how to wear, this conversation is for you.

Sarah and Tami take you behind the scenes of their personal styling processes, including:

• What personal styling actually is (spoiler: it’s not just for celebs)
  
  
• Why personal style is deeply individual—and emotional
  
  
• How they assess a client’s needs, closet, lifestyle, and personality
  
  
• The importance of building a wardrobe that works for you, not just trends
  
  
• The transformation that happens when you feel seen, supported, and styled with intention
  
  

They also dig into the emotional side of style—how shame, guilt, and indecision can make dressing harder than it needs to be, and how working with a stylist can be an empowering, judgment-free experience. Plus, they share real-life stories from clients who rediscovered confidence, creativity, and ease in getting dressed—often by using what they already had.

From closet cleanses to curated shopping trips to creating outfits that actually work for real life, Sarah and Tami offer a grounded, thoughtful, and accessible look at how personal styling can help anyone feel like the best version of themselves.

Whether you're style-curious or ready to take the plunge with a stylist, this episode will inspire you to see your wardrobe (and yourself) in a whole new light.
