'Dress shabbily, they notice the dress; dress well, they notice the woman' (Coco Chanel)
confident colour, style every day ...
That doesn't mean sticking to a rigid set of colours, or buying expensive clothes, or this season's 'must have' items, but understanding how your clothes can harmonise with your colouring, shape, personality and lifestyle.
Self-confidence is the best outfit, and you can dress well in jeans and a tee shirt when you understand what works for you. You can look great and feel confident to express who you are in an instant through what you wear, wherever you are, and whatever you are doing.
I offer colour analysis, style, makeup and skincare, and help with managing your wardrobe.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO KNOW FIRST? Here is my ABCDE of the well-dressed woman to start you thinking
appropriate for the occasion
It makes sense for what is in your wardrobe to reflect your lifestyle and how much time you spend doing different things. Think about how you can use pieces of clothing you like differently

balance your bodyline
Sort out the fabrics, shapes and combinations that work with your shape, height, scale, proportions. This is the information in a Style Consultation, but you can start by assessing whether you have straight lines (you need straight cuts) or curves (fabrics should skim).

complement your colouring
A Colour Consultation will identify a palette of great colours, and also show you how to make colours in your wardrobe but not in your palette work for you. The closer a colour is to your face, the more important it is (and this includes what's on your face - see makeup here). If you don't know your colouring, start with a good neutral and work accent colours around it. Each item should go with 3 others (use this guide for shopping too).

doesn't look dated
An organised wardrobe can be easily updated by adding one or two pieces a season. If you love an item, it may be worth hanging on to, as trends are sure to reappear in a few years. As a general rule though, if it makes you feel frumpy, ditch it!

expresses your individuality
When an item ticks all the boxes but you still don't reach for it, it may be that it is just out of harmony with your personal style. This is where all consultations start, because WHAT YOU WEAR reflects WHO you are.
