Wardrobe Review
This part of your consultation involves expert assessment of your existing wardrobe pieces by colour and style and accessories. You are probably one of the many women who wear only 20% of their wardrobe 80% of the time, so would you like to make more wearable outfits without spending a fortune?

You will be expertly guided around suitable shops and stores trying on outfits that were identified by us during the pre-shopping period after the wardrobe review and before the shopping trip.

Typical duration is 3-4 hours.  *Venue dependent on day of the week and client profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I've previously had a colour and style session with another image coach, does that mean I can still use your services or will I have to be 're-done' first?

A: If you have already learned this valuable information from a previous image consultation, you are more than welcome to use our Wardrobe Management and Personal Shopping Service - but we guarantee our service will be different and touch you on a deeper level than you ever thought possible!

Q: I had my colours analysed over 15 years ago by another company, do your colours change as you get older?

A: Not necessarily. What happens is your skin tone will lose it's pigment and fades, just like your hair colour does, so actually, it's vitally important to use your best tones/shades/intensities next to your face to rejuvenate your appearance!  We do 'refresher' sessions especially for those of you who want to re-visit what you were taught first time around, with lots of extra tips and inspiration.

Q: I'm on a limited budget at the moment, but still want to look good, what would you recommend?

A: Mindful of the current climate, I have planned monthly "Looking Good Made Easy" 1 day workshops which are designed to inspire, educate and motivate you to explore how you can use colour, style and your personality to enhance your appearance. These are interactive and fun, with like-minded women sharing some girly time and learning from each other as well as us! Go to our Workshops page for more.

Q: How much does x, y, z cost?

A: We are frequently asked this question as an initial enquiry. Of course we understand you have to consider the financial implications of investing in calling in the experts, but just think about that for a minute... When you are serious about losing weight, you join a slimming club or a gym which costs to achieve results... When your car goes wrong, you take it to the mechanics at the garage, which costs to fix it....  When your marriage ends, you consult a solicitor as they are the experts in family law.  So, why do we dither when it comes to deciding on investing in ourselves?  

Trust me, it is THE most worthwhile money you will ever spend (even before you go shopping!) as the advice enables you to:  save money, time and frustration on how you want to look and we show you how to spend wisely and get maximum value out of all your purchases.  So, no more unworn items in your wardrobe with the tags still on, no more need to have more than 1 wardrobe, no more keeping items that don't suit or fit you making you feel depressed.  We help you to express the 'real you' of today, regardless of age, shape, size, challenges and, hopefully inspire you to continue doing this for the rest of your life!  The results can surprise you.

Q: Your website seems to be geared towards females. Do you help us style challenged guys out too?

A: Of course we do!  Especially if you are looking to impress for a job promotion or a first date - we can guide you through colour and style decisions that will create the best impact for these situations. Once you learn about the psychology of colour, you will never look back. We know you guys love to utilise these subliminal messages to get you what you want. Give us a call, we'll make shopping easy!

Q: We are 4 friends who would like to learn about which colours suit us together - do you offer this?

A: Yes, the maximum group size we recommend is 3 which may take up to 5 hours. We usually conduct these at our home based studio and provide you with light refreshments to keep you going. You can also try on pieces from our unique clothing range too, so it may take slightly longer!

Q: I live a long distance away from you but would very much like to arrange a consultation for you to help me. I'm particularly interested in the capsule wardrobe building element. What are the options?

A: Over the last 6 months or so we have been travelling far and wide to meet the demand for our style coaching services due to the popularity of our sister site mycapsulewardrobe.  It makes sense for us to come to your home, as we can get to the nitty gritty of reviewing your current wardrobe and also demonstrate colour and style analysis.  This will involve buying a complete package and also incurs travelling expenses.  The other option is for you to bring your wardrobe to our studio and also be able to shop from our unique clothing collection before hitting the High Street. There is a Travel Inn less than half a mile away with competitive rates and adjacent restaurant. We also offer weekend consultations so you can always travel with your partner and make a weekend of it!

Q: I'm thinking of consulting an image expert for help with my style but am worried that I will be over styled beyond recognition - I don't want to end up like those ladies on the TV who, when they do a re-visit, have reverted back to their 'safe' clothing choices. Do you have clients I could talk to that explain how the process worked for them?

A: Very good question, I'm glad you asked. Reading client testimonials on screen doesn't always provide you with the confidence that they are all true!  Yes, we have plenty of real clients who are more than happy to chat with you and discuss their Style2you experiences. We are proud to say we have plenty of loyal clients that use our Wardrobe Review and Personal Shopping services twice a year to keep them stylish and confident.

Q: I live in Spain but would like some online or over the phone advice - can you help and if so how does it work?

A: We are up to date with our technology so currently offer S.O.S (Style on Skype) where we can give advice with a webcam and help you with your challenges and dilemmas. We also offer a Virtual Personal Shopping Service after this where we send you images of items that will suit your shape and colouring and style personality - all this without having to come to the UK. 

If you have any other questions you would like answering that haven't been covered above, please contact us - we'd love to help you 'glow with confidence'.
