NEW YORK (WABC) -- Many celebrities walk the red carpet, looking stunning and putting the fashion world on notice.

And they often attribute their amazing looks to their personal stylists.

Now you too can have a personal stylist, right at your fingertips without having to spend a fortune.

"I look at these celebrities and I just don't know how to do it for yourself, I don't have a lot of time to do that," said Diana Melencio of the web site, OKMyOutfit.com.

She's not alone. Very high-paid stylists pull together the best looks, but what if you could get the same results at a fraction of the price?

"It's the thrill of the chase, we have this amazing hunt presented to us," said stylist Samantha Brown. You may think she's out of your league, but you're wrong.

Your in is OkMyOutfit.com, where a team of three highly acclaimed stylists will custom build a look for you. First you create a profile, what you like, your budget, the occasion and they take it from there.

"I'll go through and search depending on price point and what you need, and try to find the right pieces for all the criteria you've given me," said Samantha.

The creators are John Orekunrin, who has a background in tech, and Diana, from Wall Street. Both love fashion.

"We wanted to create something that would be a resource for us, that was affordable and allow anyone to look their best without the work," said Orekunrin.

Upload a photo, pay $10 and a stylist will give you feedback. Pay $25, and they'll shop for you and create a look book.

It works. Just ask Luis Rodriguez. He's 28 and needed something to wear on an anniversary date with his girlfriend.

"I wanted to obviously go for something a little more romantic because I was taking my girlfriend to a dinner," he said.

And after a stylist came up with his outfit, the result was: "This time it was even more put together than usual, she was like wow, it was awesome," he said.

And I used the web site to find a romantic dress for a first date. Now wish me luck!
