Color My Closet

interview with Lauren Battistini

What inspired you to start this business?
Lauren Battistini

It all happened quite unexpectedly. My friend was sure she didn’t have anything to wear in her closet and was concerned about having to spend a ton on new clothes. I went to her house for moral support (laughs) while we rummaged through her closet. A few hours into it I had discarded half of her clothing but managed to create over 30 new outfits with what remained! Drawing from my experience in color analysis and cosmetics, I also told my friend what colors look best on her. It was she who suggested that I do this for a living, so I really have her to thank! What most inspired me to start this business was seeing my friend walk with that extra ‘pep in her step,’ knowing that she looked stylish and put together. That sparked my passion for helping other women look and feel their best.
