Fashion often dictates and defines the choices we make about our appearance. This season’s colour, cut or convention, if they are out of harmony with our natural colouring and body shape, can undermine our self-confidence and suppress our natural energy and enthusiasm. I use style and image to help you express positive emotions, to connect freely with aspects of your character through the look and feel of your clothes, caring for your hair and the innate beauty of your gestures, facial expressions and movement.
Over the past twenty years, I have explored the transformative power of image consultancy and personal styling with many glorious people. I have seen how a person’s self-belief can be strengthened by their clothes and colours that harmonise with their physical being and personality. It is a thrilling journey to experience and to witness!
My work can begin with a photo-shoot, a fun process that offers insights into your emotional world, dreams and aspirations. It continues with a close look at your present style and moves forward to provide a Colour Analysis consultation. The essence of transformation also informs my Holistic Styling consultation, Introductory Make-up Course.
I will help create your new look by choosing the cosmetics, clothes and accessories that ideally complement your nature, providing support as you discover the styles, make-up shades and colours that suit you best. My approach, which works for individuals and groups, draws on the knowledge and expertise of Colour Me Beautiful, one of the world’s leading image consultancies. It also stands on my long experience of working closely with individuals to maximise their potential and help them flourish.
