Styling is my passion
Looking good, feeling good and helping others are the real reasons why I love this job. I am fortunate to work with a wonderful team of women, who have the same passion and share the same goals.
Styling REAL women for decades
“It's a common misconception to think that you have to be a size 8 woman wearing designer clothes to look stylish. That's not the real world and it's certainly not my world. Looking stylish is all about choosing the right clothes to fit your body shape, developing a capsule wardrobe suitable for your lifestyle and finally accessorising to complete the outfit. The result? Look great. Feel confident and finally have something to wear!”
I am a Personal Stylist with 20 years' experience styling the everyday woman. Driven by the belief that maximum style can be achieved with minimum effort, irrespective of lifestyle, body shape and budget, my approach to styling REAL women with REAL lives can be truly transformational.
Unlike other courses, I firmly believe we need to embrace all aspects of being a REAL woman - not a supermodel! Whether you are tall, short, curvy or shapeless, I guarantee I'll not only make you look good, but feel good too.
So, if you love style, love shopping and love helping others and would like to have a go at running your own business, OR are interested in styling yourself, then please get in contact or book yourself on our course - I promise you won't regret it!
