FAQ

Hi, I’m Kristin Bjorge — founder of The Self Styled and your Identity Architect.

The Self Styled is a creative consulting studio focused on personal image, aligned branding, and visionary self-expression. I help individuals recalibrate how they show up — visually, energetically, and professionally — so that their presence reflects their next evolution.

Whether you’re clarifying your visual identity, refining how you present your work, or aligning your brand with who you truly are, my approach blends style, symbolism, and design fundamentals to help you embody your message with clarity and impact.

The Self Styled offers high-level consulting, creative direction, and strategic guidance — but does not provide done-for-you implementation. I equip you with personalized insights, visual direction, and curated resources so you can take aligned, empowered action on your own or with your preferred support team. Styling services are a collaborative, co-creative process that require clear communication and active participation from the client.

Here's how I see it:

• Stylist — Focuses on clothing and visual aesthetics

• Image Consultant — Advises on overall appearance, communication, and perception

• Brand Consultant — Aligns your personal or professional identity with strategy and storytelling

• Creative Director — Oversees the full vision: aesthetic, tone, concept, and execution

I integrate all four. With a background in design, fashion, media, and brand development, I bring a multidisciplinary lens to your presence — bridging your inner vision with how the world sees you.

Yes — currently booking in-person Closet Curation, 1:1 Shopping, and Style Synthesis in Scottsdale, Arizona  (Phoenix Metro). In-person services are available locally through 2025, with a shift toward travel, workshops, and virtual experiences beginning in 2026. 

If you’re interested in a custom experience in another location, please email hello@theselfstyled.com to inquire about availability and travel rates.

Consult & Create, Presence Strategy Session, and Virtual Support sessions are conducted over Google Meet because it’s simple, secure, and doesn’t require clients to create an account. It allows us to connect face-to-face, record notes, and share screens when needed — without the extra fuss.

I work with visionary leaders, founders, and creatives ready to align their presence with their purpose. Some are building personal brands, others are creating businesses, launching products, or moving through major transitions — all seeking more aligned visibility. If you’re ready to step into your next era with clarity and intention, we’ll likely be a good fit.

As an interdisciplinary artist, my work is rooted in design and communication fundamentals, viewed through a psychological lens. With a background in photography, graphic design, and fashion styling, I approach visual presence holistically — considering shape, texture, tone, silhouette, and story. Whether we’re refining a brand identity or evolving your visual presence, my process blends artistry with strategy.

Pinterest is a powerful collaborative tool for visual direction. We may reference Pinterest to refine or inspire your style, brand aesthetic, and creative energy. Many clients use it to gather inspiration images ahead of a session to showcase their current or desired vibe. If you’re a visual thinker, feel free to create a board to share your inspiration with me — or the world!
