Several weeks ago, I got to play dress up all day. As a fashion blogger, it’s basically my favorite thing. I was exploring the Liberty Center in Butler County, Ohio (USA) and the ladies at Talbots recommended we make one last stop before heading home. While I was a bit tired from our busy day, my friend Amber and I decided to pop in to see what the shop was all about.

The majority of the shops at the Liberty Center are the typical shops you find at shopping centers. There you can find shops such as Kendra Scott, Forever 21 and H&M. However this is exactly what makes a boutique like Sorella Boutique different. Unlike it’s neighbors, it’s locally-owned.

When I was in the United States over the holidays, I worked with a stylist. In fact, I had some looks picked out for me. Now I know you’re probably thinking “but Nina, you cannot afford that. You work as a teacher.” Well if you work with Talbots, you don’t need to be rich to enjoy the benefits of a personal styling session.

In early January, my friend Amber and I did a little collaboration with the Butler County Visitor’s Bureau. Part of that visit included shopping at the Liberty Center. Our first stop was Talbots, of course. The ladies working there were so nice and told me about a personal styling service they offer. Basically if you’d like, you can make an appointment with them. They pick out looks based on your style and you try them on. It’s perfect for people who either hate shopping, don’t know what wear or simply want to change their style. It’s completely free as well (although I’m sure the ladies are hoping you’ll take at least a few pieces home with you).
