Restyled by Joanna – Confidence, Style, and the Art of the Thrifted Glow-Up

Sometimes, confidence doesn’t come from spending a fortune. Sometimes, it comes from a rack of secondhand jackets, a splash of hot pink, and one woman’s mission to help you see yourself a little differently.

That woman is Joanna LaFleur, and on Sunday, June 8th, she’s throwing a launch party in Ann Arbor to celebrate something bigger than fashion. She’s launching a brand. A movement. A business with heart and heels. Welcome to ReStyled by Joanna—a new concierge thrift styling service built to help women look amazing, without spending a million bucks.

Her launch party will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. at Office Evolution (455 E Eisenhower Pkwy, Unit 300, Ann Arbor), and it promises everything you’d hope from a glam, girly kickoff: styled thrift looks, mini makeovers, a DIY bracelet bar, drinks, snacks, giveaways—and what she calls “serious slay energy.”

But beneath the sparkle is a service that’s deeply personal. After navigating major life changes of her own, Joanna launched ReStyled not just to help women dress well, but to feel well.

Her message is simple: you don’t need to be rich, trendy, or fashion-savvy to look put together. You just need someone who understands your style, your stage of life, and your story. Joanna is that someone.

She offers a range of services through her website restyledbyjoanna.com, including:

  • Solo Slay Styling – curated thrifted wardrobes tailored to your personal aesthetic
  • Thrift & Try – in-person shopping sessions with Joanna as your style guide
  • Group Glow-Up – private styling parties for friends ready to refresh their wardrobes together
  • The ReStyled Closet – a curated thrift collection available both online and in-person

Joanna’s ideal client? A busy woman in her 30s to 50s who loves the idea of thrifting but doesn’t have the time—or the styling know-how—to make it happen. These are women juggling kids, careers, maybe a little self-reinvention, and zero extra hours in their day.

“They want sustainable fashion and better prices,” Joanna says. “But they don’t want to spend their Saturday morning elbow-deep in clearance bins.”

What they want is someone like Joanna, who can pull together outfits that feel effortless, elegant, and uniquely them—all from secondhand racks most shoppers would overlook. It’s like having a personal shopper, but with a conscience and a creative edge.

Joanna’s business is grounded in her belief that fashion should be accessible, sustainable, and joyful. And on June 8th, she’s inviting the community to come celebrate that belief with her.

So if you’re free that evening—and even if you’re not sure what “serious slay energy” is—drop by. You might leave with a new look. Or maybe just a little more confidence.

Either way, Joanna will be there, cheering you on.
