Make It You is the podcast for ambitious professionals and entrepreneurs who are ready to align who they are with who they’re becoming.
Hosted by Tannya Bernadette — Founder & CEO of The Closet Edit, a Seattle-based luxury personal styling agency serving clients nationwide — this show explores the intersection of personal style, leadership, identity, and visibility.
With over 17 years in business and features in Real Simple, KOMO 4, Seattle Magazine, Bustle, and Buy Side WSJ, Tannya brings real-world experience to conversations about confidence, reinvention, and building a life that feels as powerful as it looks.

Because how you show up matters.

This timeless collection of pieces you can mix and match for your life. Can you recreate this? It's such a trending topic to live life like a minimalist and have this small collection of pieces but what does that look like in real life?
This topic came up on TikTok, and I couldn't help but think about how unrealistic it is to believe that you can hold onto something without changing or wanting to change. I like mixing it up with other things, such as food, exercise routines, and morning rituals. I get a solid routine for a bit, something happens, or I want to try something new and replace what I was doing. I go through phases where I'm obsessed with peanut butter and jelly (in it right now). I've gone through a ton of peanut butter the past couple of months, but it's a phase, and then I find another snack to replace it that I love. I get bored.
The definition of a capsule wardrobe feels so limiting. Even the word capsule sounds like you are stuck in this tiny thing and can't get out, expand, or grow from there or you'll burst.
When I work with clients, I like to replace this wording with creating a foundation for your wardrobe. It feels freer and more solid—something you can have as a base and grow. Every new client I work with aims to create an excellent foundation for your wardrobe. With clients I've worked with for years, it's just maintenance here and there to make sure the pieces still fit their body and lifestyle.
Here are the 5 truths about a 'capsule wardrobe.'
