Mission:

To ensure individuals and organizations understand the power of a polished presence and how to achieve it

I started styling because I wanted people to feel good, and one of the easiest ways to feel good is to look great! Every time I see a client and they’ve got that natural confidence, I know part of that is because they know they’re wearing the right thing that works perfectly for them. Looking good adds pep in your step, more umph to your stride, and more confidence in your strut…and isn’t that what we all want?!

Monica Barnett Chief Image Curator

As Seen in Real Simple, Vogue and Lucky Magazine; and on WUSA9, and Good Day Washington Monica Barnett has over 12 years of styling and branding experience and has been featured on many stages around the world but the focus is always on the importance and power of the first impression. Across Ms. Barnett’s distinguished career as a wardrobe stylist, she has had the privilege to partner with major corporations to fine tune their employees’ style and brand; and the opportunity to work with corporate executives, politicos, and world class athletes. The goal is always to develop a more intentional approach of curating one’s outward appearance to align with one’s lifestyle and aspirations.

Blueprint for Style’s philosophy is “when you look good, you feel good; and when you feel good, other people notice.”

Client Testimonials “I had the pleasure of meeting Monica Barnett almost seven years ago when she came to talk with an intimate group of AfricanAmerican ‘Rising Stars’ within Deloitte.

She spoke about the nuances of style and considerations as we moved up the corporate ladder— she nailed it!… Most recently, Monica participated as a speaker at the Women in Construction conference (two years in a row) and the 200+ attendees including myself were captivated by her ease, professionalism, ability to engage the room, and the tactics and strategies she conveyed. Even a year later, people remembered her and approached her quoting from her presentation—that’s powerful! Having interacted and experienced Monica across many years and several different formats, I can say unequivocally that she’s the real deal. Her

“passion for fashion” and her ability to share her knowledge and experience in a relatable and relevant manner puts her atop my list when thinking about the power of personal branding and influencing your interactions with others.”

Senior Manager, Deloitte Financial Advisory Services

“We asked Monica to work with us to create custom training & professional development seminars for our staff focused on the importance of image and tactics to better align personal style with the company’s corporate vision. Our goal was to ensure we leveled the playing field on understanding professional dress. She ‘knocked it out the park’ - the survey results indicated that she was professional, well prepared, presented relevant information, and clarified a number of misconceptions. In addition, we asked her to conduct an Internship Training program to provide strategies for our interns

to be better prepared for the real world and, again, she was terrific... We have been working with Blueprint for Style since 2011 and will definitely continue to utilize her services.”

Comcast Cable, Division Vice President of Human Resources

“After spending way too much time digging through a closet to put together outfits that were just okay, I finally looked to Monica for help. She listened, and was clear about what was not working for me and why. I waited way too long and wasted a lot of money before calling Monica.”

Linda H., Utah

“I can’t say enough about Monica’s wonderful service! I had met Monica at a presentation she gave about style at Georgetown.

Her presentation was engaging and witty and very insightful compared to your standard ‘dress for success’ presentation.”

Chris C., Washington, DC
