Let me help you develop, define and enhance your image and individual style. My aim is to understand you, your lifestyle and get you feeling and looking great.

My service is exactly what I call it ‘Personal’.

DETOX     DE-CLUTTER    RECYCLE    RE-WORK    RE-DISCOVER

A major step your wardrobe makeover is to clean out your existing wardrobe and eliminate all the things that are of no use to you.  Make this a habit at the beginning of each season.

ITEMS TO KEEP:

No Alterations required.
Fit with your personality and lifestyle.
Flatter your figure and make you feel good.
Key capsule pieces.  
Statement and Classic trends.
Clothes that actually fit.

ITEMS THAT REQUIRE ATTENTION:

Fallen hems, missing buttons, zips etc.
Require minor alterations.
Items that need another purchase before it can be worn.

ITEMS TO DONATE TO CHARITY OR SIMPLY DISCARD:

Too small or too large.
Out-of-date clothes.
Stained / marked / worn out / torn and exhausted.
Any items that are uncomplimentary or simply don’t fit your current lifestyle.
Unworn for Three years.

QUESTIONS ASKED:

Have I worn it in last year?.
Does it flatter me / Do I feel good when I wear it?.
Does it actually go with other items in my wardrobe?.
Does it still fit me?.
So, now lets get organised……………………………….

I will arrange items and organise into sections

Work / Casual / Weekend wear / Evening wear / Occasion wear

Remove those items not in season and either store or pack away until next season, this will give a clear view to have to wear and will allow remaining clothes to breathe and not get crushed or damaged.

I will show you how to correctly hang and fold clothes, remove items from wire hangers and replace them on hangers specifically designed for the type of garment.  These felt hangers will allow garments to hang in their natural lines and minimise the need to re-iron your clothes.

MAKE A WARDROBE INVENTORY OF WHAT IS NEEDED:

This list will become the basis from which you will determine your clothing needs.  List items to co-ordinate with items left in wardrobe this will include a list of accessories.

All clothes that require alteration wont be placed back in wardrobe.

Identify the essentials, basic tees, blazer, new jeans, white shirt, belts etc etc.  Think back to the step where you evaluated your lifestyle and ideal wardrobe, and use this information to decide which types of items would have the biggest impact on your look right now.

Clear the clutter, this is important step in the process of reorganisation.  In every wardrobe there are clothes with invisible, guilty tags attached to them.  They lie in wait to remind you of how much money you paid for them and how few times they have been worn. These clothes will actually cost you money and they take up valuable space in your wardrobe. I will put items in your wardrobe into categories.

• Start by working on the area of your wardrobe that you’re the least happy with; with just a few simple tweaks, you’ll see the impact immediately.  Let me guide you and help you achieve the perfect wardrobe. Give you honest and realistic style advice on what suits your body shape with fun, quick tips.

YOU WILL LOVE YOUR CLOTHES ALL OVER AGAIN.

Most clients will look to enlist my help as a personal shopper, following on from a ‘Wardrobe Detox’ consultation, to find them the missing pieces to complete their whole outfits.  Your wardrobe will be organised to see what you have and what you need.  A personal shop is also a fantastic solution for those individuals who require specific items, or for those who have little to begin with.  It is now time to bring together for a complete and functional wardrobe.

In advance of our appointment I will perform a ‘pre-shop’.  This involves me performing research and visiting all stores and boutiques to find and reserve key items required to complete your wardrobe and look.  My relationship with the various stores allows me to where possible book private fitting rooms for our appointment.  This means the clothes will be waiting when we arrive for you to try on immediately. 

During a personal shop, we will purchase key and capsule pieces which have been identified as missing from your existing wardrobe that serves your lifestyle and enhances the image you wish to present.  You will also be introduced to styles / colours and collections that suit you.  It is literally an education on how and where to shop.  You will have new knowledge on how to put outfits together and what to wear for an occasion.

• Show you where to find the best pieces in terms of quality and price.
• Save you money and introduce new ways of shopping with no more ‘sale’ purchases and impulse buys.

Everyone has individual needs and expectations that’s why I offer a free, no-obligation, One hour, consultation so I can get to know you and really understand your requirements. I will then highlight how I can support you in your personal transformation and outline the costs involved. I am totally independent and objective and not affiliated to any shops. I promise I will save you time, money and you are under no obligation to buy.
