“It’s exciting. Once they do it, they get their own swagger”
– Bette Lord Hillman
​​Balance Between Presentation & Personality
“Rachel” was a Realtor who was having a hard time getting her career to the next level. She knew she had an aggressive personality that sometimes gave her clients the wrong signals. Rachel approached her image and wardrobe consultant Bette Lord Hillman with her concerns. Bette helped Rachel to soften her look to create balance between her presentation and her personality. Rachel’s new image engaged her clients in a whole new way, which increased her sales.

An Authentic & Exciting Wardrobe Discovery
“Kim” was a very intelligent, young medical student who found it difficult to be taken seriously. Because of her wardrobe, people treated her more like a personal assistant than a doctor-in-training. “People will naturally assume the lowest common denominator,” says Bette.
​
Kim hired Bette as her personal shopping consultant, and Bette introduced her to stores with a solid professional look. Together, the two chose a wardrobe that Kim found authentic and exciting. As Kim earns her degree, she projects confidence, and people now address her with the respect she deserves.

New Suit Pays Big Dividends
“Al” was hired by a major newspaper for his first IT job after graduating college. After a year, he received a call from a headhunter for a larger firm. He scheduled an interview and then went shopping for an interview suit with his image consultant. The new suit she advised him to buy gave him the look of success. He went on the interview, was offered the job and a $30,000 pay increase. He didn’t want to leave his old job, however, which was closer to home. When he told his employer, he was offered a $30,000 to stay. Al still believes the new suit was partially responsible for his $30,000 raise.

Wardrobe Upgrade Leads to Lasting Love
“George” wanted to attract more love to his life. He was mourning a relationship that had drifted because it had grown stale, and he hired Bette to update his wardrobe.
“Sometimes you can add a splash of color that happens to be the latest shade for the season, and, suddenly, you’re back on trend,” said Bette.
She worked with him, choosing designs and colors that were attractive for his coloring and build. The effect was brilliant – George began to exude confidence and attract what he desired. He’s now in a loving relationship.
