5 Reasons to hire a personal stylist!

I’m writing this blog post for those of you that have considered hiring a personal stylist but you still aren’t sure. Here are my top 5 reasons to consider a styling service…

1. Confidence 

The number one goal! 

My clients gain confidence to introduce new colours and styles into their wardrobes and within themselves. I love hearing from my clients after we’ve worked together! We all get stuck in a rut and tend to keep buying the same over and over.  Have a look in your wardrobe - what do you keep buying that you really don’t need anymore of? The same jeans?  Stripey t-shirts?  I will gently shake things up for you, creating a fresher version of you. I’m not trying to turn you into a fashionista - but I can help you feel more current and modern and you will feel a new confidence. 

2. Rediscover your wardrobe

I will show you that you have more in your wardrobe than you think! My clients are always wonderfully amazed after a session. The aim of my wardrobe edit service is not to throw everything out! (Unless it needs to go!!) I will look at what you have and pull new outfits together. I will teach you style tips. I will photography the outfits and email them to you with notes. I will identify what is missing and send you my suggestions. Of course any pieces that have come to the end of life will be dealt with accordingly ie. charity shop, re-sell or bin. 

3. Shopping just got more enjoyable! 

Shopping can be fun and stress free I promise! Trawling through the shops can be a nightmare and if you really hate it then I suggest you work with a stylist. I do a pre-shop specifically for each of my clients. I will narrow down a selection of clothing/accessories based on what we have discussed for your needs and present you with an edited choice. Some clients prefer to stay in the changing room throughout a shop and some like to browse with me - both are completely fine. The budget is set by you beforehand - I work with all budgets and shop accordingly. 

4. Honest opinion

I am not working to hit any targets in a store. You will have my honest opinion whether something works or not. I want the items you purchase to be perfect for you and to last beyond one season of fashion! We will shop at stores perfect for YOUR individual brief. 

5. Save money

Long term you will be saving money as you will no longer have items never worn with tags attached, items that don’t fit or items not serving your shape or colouring. Panic buying will be a thing of the past as you will have a bespoke wardrobe perfectly curated for your needs. Once you have a good understanding of your body shape and which colours are your best you will be well equipped for any future purchases that you make. 

LAST BUT NOT LEAST IT’S A FUN PROCESS!
