About

Hi! I am Danielle Gayle-Laidley, the owner and founder of The Chic Glamist. The Chic Glamist was created due to a deep desire to fulfill my purpose of inspiring others to be glamorous, stylish but yet focus on mental health. Throughout all of my adolescence and adulthood people have come to me for style tips or life tips. I feel the need to share my skills to more than just close family and friends.

The word glamist is a word I created due to me being a mental health therapist as well as a stylist. I decided to combine the two because through my encounters with others I see a deep need for so many who struggle with confidence, style, and also just advice on getting through day to day life stressors. SO many people have no idea that your mood and style are often connected. When you look good you sometimes start to feel good and I often have heard people tell me "I felt good so I decided to dress up today". Most people never make the connection.

I was driven to create because at some point in life we all experience hardship and challenges. We all need some inspiration and empowerment. There's nothing better than living your best life and looking and feeling damn well doing it! Everything that you need in life you already have it in you. Its time to tap into it!
