7 Reasons Why You Need To Spend Time With A Personal Stylist

A Personal Stylist - it sounds like the sort of thing celebrities have doesn’t it? Well, it’s true, they do… We stylists are not, however, only for the likes of the rich and famous, and actually many of the reasons why they like to have them, are as relevant to you and me, as they are to them! For example...

• They like to look their best (who knows when a stray camera will pop out?!)

• They are busy, and they want looking good to be quick, easy and effortless

• They want to feel confident

• They want to know what suits them, so when they are buying clothes, they make good choices (and they need the people who dress them to also know this)

• They want to save money (OK, I don’t actually know if that’s true, but if I were a celeb, I still wouldn’t want to be wasting my money on clothes that didn’t suit me!)

Do all these things sound relevant to you too? I thought so… So, whilst at first glance, you might think hiring a Personal Stylist is extravagant or unnecessary, actually when you’re thinking about your own wardrobe, if any of the above sound like things you might also want, then investing in time with a Personal Stylist could have a really positive impact on you.

Let’s start by dispelling a few myths about Personal Stylists…

• We tell you you can’t wear black - nope! You can wear whatever makes you happy, however we’ll give you some insight in to what colours really boost your complexion so you can make informed choices

• We grab at you and say ‘you’ve got great boobs, show them off’ - that does make for good TV, but again, nope! We do want to help you accentuate you best bits however, and create a balanced overall look

• We’ll declutter your wardrobe and throw loads of things away - well, a wardrobe edit is partly about decluttering, but it’s much more than just a clear out

• We will recreate you in our own style - I mean, sometimes I do think an army of multiple versions of me would be kind of cool, it does also sound a bit weird… This isn’t about my style, it’s about yours!

So what will we do? Our job is to help you connect with your own personal style, so you understand what suits you, and you feel confident on the inside and look fabulous on the outside.

And why should you work with a Personal Stylist…?

1. You want to look your best - Working with a Personal Stylist will help you understand some key points that go a long way to looking your best - the colours that suit your complexion and the styles that suit your body shape, along with a better understanding of your own personal style. Once you know these, you’ll know how to dress best for you

2. You are busy, and you want looking good to be quick, easy and effortless - Imagine a beautiful, tidy wardrobe filled with clothes that you know suit you, which you know how to mix and match to create lots of fabulous outfits… OK, now imagine how easy and effortless getting ready will now be. A Personal Stylist will help you achieve this wardrobe haven!

3. You want to feel confident - A Personal Stylist will work with you to help you nail your own unique style - how you dress is a statement about who you are, and once you understand your Style Personality, you’ll know the clothes that make you look and feel great, and you’ll have the confidence to express the real YOU!

4. You want to know what suits you - Spend time with a Personal Stylist and you’ll know what palette of colours suits your complexion, you’ll understand some simple ways you can flatter your body shape and you’ll have the confidence to buy clothes that you know suit your personality and your lifestyle. It is amazing how much easier shopping and getting ready in the morning becomes once you have these tools!

5. You want to save money - Can you honestly say there are not things in your wardrobe that you bought on a whim but have never worn? Working with a Personal Stylist will help you stop making those mistakes so you’ll end up spending less on clothes you don’t wear. You’ll be able to walk into a shop and immediately disregard the pieces you know aren’t right for you. Online shopping becomes so much easier as you can filter out everything that you know doesn’t work. You’ll know what pieces are worth investing in and you’ll make every item you own work much harder for you. Well, would you look at that - you’d benefit from working with a Personal Stylist every bit as much as a celeb would! In fact, you deserve the celeb treatment too… Which leads me to my final couple of points

6. You deserve to spend time focusing on yourself - I’m not going to suggest a Personal Stylist is the same as seeing a Therapist, but it is therapeutic! Investing time in yourself to learn about your own personal style is so beneficial - particularly if it’s been holding you back consciously or subconsciously. Getting back in touch with yourself is important. Spending time with a Personal Stylist is to invest in your own self confidence and self esteem - tell me, is there anything more important than that?

7. You’ll feel stylish, sassy and you’ll get loads of compliments - Wearing your best colours brightens your complexion, gives you a healthy glow, and reduces lines and shadows. Wearing clothes that suit your body shape, your personality and your lifestyle will make you feel confident in your look, and have you holding your head up high. It will get noticed! You will hear ‘you look great’ a lot more often! Need I say more?!
