My Life As A Stylist

Being a Stylist is first and foremost about helping people feel good about themselves and giving them the confidence to dress in a way that works for them.

For some the thoughts of dressing and shopping is overwhelming and fills them with dread, to the extent that the nearest thing that fits will do! You might be stuck in a style rut wearing and buying the same things over and over, or you may love fashion and time is your enemy. All this results with clothes in wardrobes that don’t quite work, don’t quite excite and largely go unworn.

As a stylist I help women from all aspects of life, gain confidence in fashion because I believe fashion is for everyone. I show you the tricks of the trade, the do’s and the don’ts that simplify getting dressed.

Setting up my business in 2019 after a lifetime in the Fashion Industry I offer women my amazing Wardrobe Makeovers, Personal Shopping, Fashion Master Classes and Online Consultations. I also work in schools and with the Dept. of Environment promoting sustainability and creating awareness of the impact Fast Fashion is having on the environment.

What I didn’t expect as a Stylist was the honesty, the openness, and the vulnerability women displayed. It became about trust and allowing me in, to tell their stories which enables me to really understand their needs and wants.

If you’re at the stage where a pileup on the bed is the norm, you feel the need to constantly shop or whatever your trying isn’t working then it’s probably time to seek the help of a professional stylist.

As a stylist it is my job to form a strategy for you for shopping. Knowing what you need to buy gives a focus to shopping. When you can visualise how you want to look and know the pieces you need to achieve your look, is what saves time and money and makes the shopping experience more enjoyable because your in control!!!……….that’s the gift of a professional stylist.

A professional stylist might sound very grand, very city slicker, very expensive but actually like any other service it’s a service now readily available to women who would love to hand over the task to a professional stylist who takes delight in sorting and styling wardrobes.

When you embrace the idea of a stylist coming to your home you will be excited for all the possibilities and will have a new focus on you, and what you want to get out of it.

Knowing your body shape and what clothes best flatter you is a great starting point. Over a coffee we will discuss all this and more including the looks you want to achieve which will help simplify shopping for you and most importantly guide you when we are working through your wardrobe.

Together we will work through every item in your wardrobe deciding what to keep and what needs to go. This is the toughest part of the journey. Clothes have an emotional attachment and letting go can be hard even when we don’t wear them anymore.

You can create a memory box for loved pieces you don’t want to part with and keep in a safe place…out of the wardrobe!!!!

Creating space by decluttering will enable you to see exactly what you have and gives a sense of calm and order.

At this stage the guilty pleasures, the repeat buys, the impulse buys, the gaps, the clothes with tags on and how you shop is clear to see. This revelation often catches you unaware of your habits but great for moving forward.

After all the hard work we can now begin to style and make outfits giving you lots of tips on making your clothes super versatile so you have clothes for all the different areas of your life. I will show you how to dress up/dress down, get looks that work for you.

If we are missing some of the key basics (which I will go through with you) that enables you to mix and match and create great smart/casual outfits, I will note these missing essentials and add them to a shopping list along with anything else you need.
