Today we’d like to introduce you to Chantal E Alston

Hi Chantal, thanks for sharing your story with us. To start, maybe you can tell our readers some of your backstory.
Seven years ago I was in a toxic verbally abuse ‘s relationship, I was constantly being called ugly, not even referred to my name for five years . I felt like I was losing myself and my identity. At this time I found and fell in love with being in front of the camera and utilizing it as a free space for me to create and enhance and love myself. 5 years later I have walked to New York Fashion week in 2019, Walk in front of Cynthia Bailey at women’s empowerment, numerous publications, And also international publications.
One passion has led to the next. After modeling for 6 years, One of my acquaintances had asked me to style her for a photoshoot. This sparked and open a new light for me. I had always loved fashion and I had styled myself for almost all my photo shoots and it never clicked until helping somebody else. Already a closet hoarder and Had multiple sizes that I fluctuated between. I am now able to dress and style people of all sizes, And genders with my large inventory or styling them with their closet or shopping on a budget. I genuinely get a joy out of helping somebody and adding confidence just with clothing and a couple accessories. People don’t realize it doesn’t take much to add a little confidence to your outfit, but once you do, the power is unstoppable.
With my services I help people glow and grow and feel good about themselves and their outfits. Styling is truly a confidence booster and I’d love to help.
