Personal Style and Authenticity Abroad | Ep 37
Mickelle sits down with Jeanina Zgirie, a personal stylist with a unique perspective on blending fashion and place to help people evolve their personal style again and again, especially in times of transition. Originally from Romania, Jeanina shares her journey from a small town upbringing to building a career in Amsterdam, exploring how fashion became a crucial part of her self-expression. She reflects on growing up during a transitional period in Romania’s history and the role of resilience and adaptation that shaped her identity. Moving to Amsterdam was a transformative experience for Jeanina, offering her a fresh start and the freedom to reinvent herself—a journey she now helps her clients navigate as they adjust to life in a new city or chapter of their lives.
Jeanina and Mickelle talk about the concept of personal style as a language, a way to tell one’s story. Jeanina explains that style should be an intentional reflection of who we are, not just a response to trends or external expectations. She shares her approach to helping clients evaluate their closets with care, keeping only pieces that reflect their true selves, and guiding them to explore local boutiques or vintage shops in Amsterdam that add layers of personality to their wardrobe. Jeanina believes in the importance of curating a closet that feels like an art gallery, encouraging people to make thoughtful choices rather than quick, unsustainable buys.
As a Peregrine one’s wardrobe can reflect their cultural heritage while adapting to a new environment or lifestage. Jeanina emphasizes the power of clothing to express individuality and how she assists people in finding that balance between blending into their surroundings and standing out. She also notes Amsterdam’s diverse and expressive fashion scene, which welcomes personal creativity and experimentation. For Jeanina, styling is more than clothes; it’s about helping clients navigate their inner transformations and outwardly reflect their evolving identities.
