I'm a middle aged guy working in automotive design — creative, well-established, and recently back on the dating scene after a long relationship ended. I’m ready to start fresh, meet new people, and ideally find a meaningful connection. But before I dive in, I’d like to update my look and build a personal style that feels more modern, authentic, and attractive. I’m looking for someone — preferably a stylish, confident woman — to help me explore and refine my image. Think of it as a style reboot with someone whose perspective I value (and whose taste I’d want to impress!). You don’t need to be a professional stylist — just someone with good instincts, an eye for fashion, and the honesty to tell me if something looks good (or not). What I'm thinking: - Start with an initial consultation — 2 to 4 hours - Rate is $50/hour, negotiable depending on time and scope - If it works well, this could become a recurring thing over the next few months We can go through my current wardrobe, hit some stores, talk grooming, maybe grab coffee — whatever helps me feel more confident and dialed-in. Open to suggestions. If you're interested in helping someone turn a corner in both style and outlook — or know someone who might enjoy doing this — drop me a line. Bonus points if you like design, have a sense of humor, and aren't afraid to say "nope" when I try something bad.
