Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Michelle Goldfarb. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.

Michelle, thanks for joining us, excited to have you contributing your stories and insights. Naming anything – including a business – is so hard. Right? What’s the story behind how you came up with the name of your brand?

It all started with a dinner party.

The place I attended after college was a fashion school called, Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, for short FIDM.

I graduated in fashion design back in 2009. Fast forward a few years, I then met two talented designers from my school, whom ended up becoming instant friends.

What I recall, during that same year they were having people over for a Friendsgiving. I was so excited to join and I always loved meeting new people.

At the party were some other designer friends, along with the dean of FIDM, Who happened to became a mentor to this couple. She was a cool spunky red head with sharp fifty style glasses and impeccable style. We ended up sitting next to each other at the table.

From the praise of her teaching style to all the relationship and astrology talk, I really got a chance to gain insight that night about my role model in a more personal level than in years past.

That night she gave me a gift that I was happy to receive. . It was a light bulb moment of mixing my two passions together of both fashion and astrology and hence the start of my company Closet Charmer.

As always, we appreciate you sharing your insights and we’ve got a few more questions for you, but before we get to all of that can you take a minute to introduce yourself and give our readers some of your back background and context?

I am a professional astrologer and I’ve had a real love of learning about the human psyche.

I love fashion/style! My education includes a textiles program and a continuing education in Fashion design education. I have worked in both small boutiques and large corporations and most recently as an executive stylist at the iconic brand Macys.

Im known for my style and it changes, periodically, honestly by the moon. Which is how I help my clients.

I give my clients practical solutions on how to help their wardrobe through the lense of astrology.

The birth chart is a blueprint of who we came here to be. I use this as a particular guide to help dress my clients into their true personal expression. This helps them become the more authentic version of themselves. They then are able to expand further in the world.

Is there a particular goal or mission driving your creative journey?

My mission in Closet Charmer is help woman expand in the world through their creative expression. I use astrology to accomplish this goal, getting to know my clients on a deeper level and can assist with helping them find their unique voice.

Any advice for growing your clientele? What’s been most effective for you?

My clientele has mostly come from word of mouth.

I have done many style events both locally and in near by states. Where I have partnered with different brands in the fashion industry.

I am also active in social media. Mostly instagram and tik tok.
