Here’s my Q&A w/ the lovely Amelia Eaton, Co-Founder of The CHICago Life Blog:

Heidy Best is the woman behind one of the top fashion consulting companies in Chicago, BECLOTHESMINDED.  Not only has Heidy specialized in women’s wear for over 12 years,  she also has an extensive personal styling portfolio including Kelly Clarkson, Leann Rimes, Tim Gunn, Jonathan Adler, and Dr. Oz to name a few.  Heidy’s passion has always been helping make women look and feel special at every age, size, and lifestyle. Her ability to mix and match pieces to create  entire different looks gives her clients full range of their closets.   Heidy’s love and expertise is demonstrated by dressing women for special events and galas. Her specialties include: organizing client’s closets, wardrobe styling, and personal shopping. She also offers services to brides, expecting women and moms on the go.  In addition to starting her own business, Heidy had a successful career in personal styling at Neiman Marcus, where she developed a client base and even traveled to New York and assisted in the buying department for eight years.  Most recently, Heidy was with Armani.  Naturally, we couldn’t wait to get Heidy’s thoughts on what women will be wearing this fall, so we met the stylist at one of our favorite boutiques, Edith Hart, to browse the racks, talk trends, and get Heidy’s take on fall fashion…

But Best’s favorite part of the job is dressing women for galas and other major events. With Chicago in the midst of party season, we turned to the stylist to talk fashion and favorites in her Wicker Park neighborhood.
