WARDROBE PLANNING AND STYLING
It Changed How I See Getting Dressed
"The consultation has changed everything I thought about what I wear. I am finding it much easier to choose styles that I know will suit me. My first purchase made me think 'wow, this does work.' I cannot thank Hayley enough for the confidence and clarity it has provided me and I would highly recommend to anyone."
It Was Transformational
"After being recommended to see Hayley by several different friends, I was so glad I booked. She got me out of a style rut that had been lasting literally years and bringing me down.
I used to love shopping but in the last 5–10 years I had gradually had less and less success with it. I dreaded it to the point I'd been struggling for clothes to wear day to day, let alone for special occasions.
Hayley showed me which colours suited my skin tone best and talked me through styles that would work for me. It was transformational. I would highly recommend opting for a shopping trip with her too if you have been struggling for a long time- it helped me get out of my old rut. Now shopping is fast, easy and even fun. I can spot clothes that will likely suit me while still on the hanger. Thank you, Hayley!"
A Breath of Fresh Air
"I was really struggling with all the clothes in my wardrobe and how to match them together. The Wardrobe Consultation was a relaxed and enjoyable experience. For anybody thinking about booking- go do it! It's like a breath of fresh air to your old wardrobe!"
Like Having a Fashionable Friend
"I met Hayley at a time when I was going through a lot of transitions in my career and adjusting to life as a working mum. This, coupled with post-lockdown life, meant I basically lived in leisurewear. I felt a bit lost and didn't know how to get out of the rut. Hayley helped me to understand the colours and styles that suit me. I'm loving wearing things that I wouldn't have considered for myself. Going through my wardrobe with her was like having a really fashionable friend around. I couldn't recommend her highly enough."
Shopping Complete in Under an Hour
"I have never been much into makeup and clothes. I have always tried to look like I haven't tried. That was fine until three things happened: I had kids, I turned 40 and I started my own business. I realised that my 'effortless' style was now just boring and unadventurous.
Hayley came over to my house and understood me completely. Days later I received my boards with all her suggestions of outfits. I LOVED the way she did this- all I had to do was click on the link and order the clothes online. My shopping was complete in under an hour. She has introduced me to new styles and I now have the confidence to wear them, and shown me brands that I had been unfamiliar with but will now become some of my staples."
I Now Shop Like a Hot Knife Through Butter
"Hayley has transformed the way I see clothes and the way I shop! Gone are the sweaty, bad-tempered shopping trips resulting in feeling bad about myself. I'm now sweeping through rails of clothing like a hot knife through butter! Selecting my wardrobe takes a fraction of the time because I know exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you Hayley- I'll be back for a wardrobe declutter!"
A Wise Investment
"Hayley instantly puts you at ease and is extremely approachable, professional and knowledgeable. She has renewed my love of clothes and shopping. I will no longer be wasting money on spontaneous purchases that don't ever get worn- a very wise investment!"
PERSONAL SHOPPING
She Knows Me So Well
"I’ve shopped with Hayley twice a year for the last few years. I used to dread shopping, it was a stressful chore for me and my husband. Then I met Hayley- I have never had so many options! Each time I see her she picks something new which I’m not initially sure of and then it becomes my favourite item. She knows me so well! During our last shop I was worried I had not given her enough direction as I’d been so busy at work, but she found me some amazing pieces- she’s a miracle worker! I now have plenty of choices for any occasion I may have. My husband loves it and looks forward to my fashion shows after Hayley’s been!"
Everyone Commented How Put Together I Looked
"I went on a girls holiday after a Shop and Drop with Hayley, everyone commented how put together I looked and admired my outfits! Ive never felt so comfortable and confident! I love everything and had outfits to wear for each occasion and now Im back home"
My Hayley Pieces Are Always My Most Worn
"Ive shopped with Hayley for many years and she always manages to find me pieces that I’d never have thought of. She picks Wild Cards which Id never have considered on the hanger but work brilliantly- my Hayley pieces are always my most worn! I will never shop by myself again!"
More Choice Than I've Ever Had
"Before I met Hayley I was stuck wearing the same 5 pairs of joggers from Sainsbury's (which my husband threatened to burn!) and scraggly t-shirts. I never felt nice. Then I met Hayley and I have never had so much choice. I really struggled with finding bottoms that fitted me- now I have a selection for all occasions. I no longer stress about going out as I always have something to wear."
COLOUR ANALYSIS
It Seems So Obvious Now
"I first met Hayley at an event she was doing, offering colour taster sessions. I decided to book in for a full colour analysis to find out more. I’d looked at drapings online and tried to work out what season I was, convincing myself to be a winter- how wrong I was! It was clear during the session that I looked much better in autumn colours. I’ve gradually embraced this in my clothing, replacing the previous bright winter colours I used to own and feel so much more like me. I love all the deep rusts and mustards, it seems so obvious now how well they work on me!”
I Now Know Why I Was Stuck
"It actually opened my eyes to how I choose colours- including in my house! I feel like I understand so much better now why I was stuck. I've been trying to choose colours that I love to see on my mum, thinking that just because she's my mum, I can wear them too. But nope! So now I get why clothes have been making me feel so 'wrong'. Gosh, this is going to help me so much- faster shopping trips too!"
It's Amazing What Wearing the Right Colours Can Do
"I first met Hayley a few months after my husband died. I had no confidence and it had been years since I seriously went out to buy clothes. I felt like Hayley was a real friend to me. She was very knowledgeable in colours and what suited me and turned my life around. I would recommend her 100% to anyone who wants a good kickstart in life. It's amazing what wearing the right clothes can do."
It Explained Everything
"I’d worked with a Personal Stylist before but never had a Colour Analysis and felt it was a missing piece. So I went to see Hayley because I liked her personalised approach. It was eye opening! When I saw the drapes and the effects of the different undertones of colours on my skin I was shocked. It explained why I never felt quite right in the pieces I had bought in the past. No more mistakes for me now!"
Inspired to Use My Palette
"I had a Colour Analysis session with Hayley which was excellent and I highly recommend her sessions. She is knowledgeable, person centred and supportive. It was great to learn more about colours and outfits that suited me. I feel very inspired to use my colour palette to enhance my wardrobe.Thank you so much Hayley."
