About Megan Kristel

Megan Kristel, President of Kristel Closets, Inc., has spent years helping clients just like you look and feel their best. With a focus on your needs, Megan helps you discover your own unique style. As matter of fact, Megan's motto is simple:

Look your best to be your best.

Her trademark philosophy is: Whether returning to the workforce, working toward a promotion, or improving your personal life, how you present yourself is how you will be defined. Your personal and corporate "brand" or "image" is your most effective tool whether your goal is to sell yourself, express yourself or  to feel better about yourself...it's the one tool that you completely control.

"I've  learned from  real women  what they expect from their image," says Megan. "Working with clients in a direct and intimate way is incredibly rewarding. It's  really powerful how a simple change of wardrobe, color or understanding of body type can transform people and how they feel about themselves."

With a background in corporate retail, Megan knows a thing or two about clothes, having spent time as a buyer for Charming Shoppes before becoming Women's Fashion Buyer and General Manager for the acclaimed Suzanne Roberts Boutique in Philadelphia.

Before she built Kristel Closets, Megan bought and developed products and programs at the home shopping powerhouse, QVC.  Today, Megan serves as the Media Image Expert for Furia Rubel Communications, Inc., preparing  Furia Rubel clients for on air presentations and public appearances.  She is a partner to the Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corp, and provides personalized shopping "tours" for visitors to Philadelphia.  She is a local go-to media expert, working with area news and radio stations.....and most recently, she was selected by City Explorer TV to serve as the local fashion expert for their work with the Four Seasons Hotel as they develop their information channel specifically featuring Megan and area retail.  As a public speaker, Megan's sell out workshops incorporate her trademark humor and disarming nature with real life advice and practical solutions.

About Béke Beau

Béke Beau began her journey in beauty in New York as an apprentice to celebrity make-up artist Laura Geller. She was introduced to a broad range of make-up application techniques, including bridal, print and television, and had the opportunity to work with celebrated actors, including Audrey Hepburn and James Earl Jones. She then became associated with friend and make-up artist Kimara Ahnert, well known for her elegant studio on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Béke continued to work on high-profile events, such as the weddings of actress Catherine Zeta-Jones and pop star Joey McIntyre. She was honored, as well, to do make-up for VIPs like Tipper Gore, Judith Nathan Giuliani, and legendary Vogue contributing editor Rosamund Bernier.

With an Ivy League education, Béke is characteristically philosophical about the power of the makeover: "I love what make-up does when it’s done beautifully, that is, it boosts confidence and promotes a positive attitude, inspiring a woman to feel more powerful. I am passionate about my role in each transformation."

Béke is a business member of the Society of Wedding Planners, the Main Line Chamber of Commerce, and she teaches courses on make-up application at Main Line School Night. Béke is also a member of the Harvard-Radcliffe Club of Philadelphia.
