Sarah is awesome and I highly recommend her. She has such great fashion sense she can achieve the impossible - making me look stylish! Wearing suits and jackets that Sarah has created for me, I get stopped in elevators, hallways, and on the street and told how great my suit or jacket looks. I get stopped and asked who my clothier is, who designed my suits. | | I've even been stuck in traffic when someone in the car next to me commented on how awesome my jacket looked. Total stranger, in another car, how does that even happen? | | Not only do other people notice, but I feel great wearing my suits and jackets. They fit well and are comfortable and unique, with a little hidden flair and high quality, I feel great and enjoy wearing her suits.'

I've had the pleasure of working with Sarah since October 2011. | Although, I'm at a point in my career where I don't have to wear suits daily, or ever, Sarah has made shopping for my basics such as slacks and polos quick and painless. Sarah understands what I like and uses that to select garments that best fit my day to day life style. She selects my outfits so they coordinate and are up to date, and I no longer have to think about if my shirts match my slacks. And the quality of the clothing is just a added bonus!'

Sarah Slaper is a pleasure to work with, laid back, and very professional.

I had heard of Tom James Company, but really did not know anything about the professionalism of its representatives or quality of its clothes. As a practicing attorney for over 40 years, (I was) completely 'old school' about dress code and wear a coat and tie to work every business day, (I) hate to shop, especially for clothes, and had not bought a suit in over eight years because my regular store closed and I didn't like what the department stores were offering. Sarah proceeded to educate me about men's clothing and how to rebuild a business wardrobe that is a pleasure to wear, fits me in all respects, and looks great. Sarah tracks everything I've purchased to make sure nothing is duplicated. None of them look alike and each has some specific feature or purpose that makes the suit or sport coat special. I look forward to deciding what to wear each day and feel very confident in my new collection of suits and sport coats. We're not done rebuilding my business wardrobe; but we've.'

Ms. Slaper is a consummate professional when it comes to consulting on how to build out a well-diversified business wardrobe. She works hard to understand her client's preferences and is equally adept at helping to expand one's tastes and push you outside of your comfort zone (for the better!). Her work is top-notch and the suits themselves are extremely high quality. I highly endorse her and her qualified team.'

I am sure I am speaking implicitly for many of Sarah's clients that she is a fabulous clothing advisor. While she certainly responds elegantly to your tastes, I have on many occasions been advised by her to try more daring colors and patterns or cuts than my traditional wardrobe, and on most of those occasions, she and I have had a short debate about whether I would feel awkward or out of character in the new duds. Instead, once I got them my character moved into the clothes and was feeling pretty buff and stylish. I now have the majority of my wardrobe from her, accumulated over a handful of years, and I always receive compliments on them. She is also fun and gets to know you personally, beyond your clothing needs, so there is a nice relationship to enjoy.'
