Do you want to Retain your Customers?
It’s been two years since COVID, and how our lives have changed; from how we work, to even how we shop and buy our clothes. Everyone it seems is now shopping online. It took a while for people to get a hang of it, ordering the wrong sizes, wrong styles, and colours...
What should I Wear on my Dates?
As Personal Stylists we get a lot of different requests, but I have to say my most common one is from single ladies (and a few men) asking for my advice on what to wear on those all-important first few dates. The dating world is ruthless and competitive, it only takes...
How Virtual Styling has become the Norm
When I first started Virtual Styling my clients all those years ago it was a matter of convenience, either my clients couldn’t get to me, or it was a last-minute request. Of course, they would have preferred to have a one-to-one Personal Shopping experience with me in...
Do you have a Unique Selling Point?
If you’ve been thinking about becoming a Personal Stylist you’ve probably checked out your competition, as in who else in your area is offering Personal Styling services. If there are quite a few, you’ll either be happy to see people are actually doing for a living...
Are you Ready for your own Make-over?
It’s funny, women who want to become Personal Stylists don’t think they need a style make-over. That would be silly, right? They’re the stylish ones, people should be coming to them to get styled. In fact, when I speak to potential delegates, 9 out of 10 times they...
Give the gift of a new Career

You shall go to the Ball
How would you like to be a stylish fairy Godmother to your Personal Styling clients? Clients who want an outfit for a night out but haven’t got a clue where to start? Perhaps their party dresses no longer fit (blame it on Covid) or despite having loads of clothes...
Why is the Hourglass Frame so Alluring?
When you become a Personal Stylist, you’ll soon realise what connotations the Hourglass frame holds for your clients. You’ll see them beam with pride if you tell them that’s their body shape or you’ll see the disappointment all over their face when you advise them...
The Most Important Skill every Personal Stylist needs
Hands down the most important skill every good Personal Stylist needs is to know is how to correctly define their clients body shape. I’m highlighting correctly because so many people get it wrong. I can’t tell you the number of women I’ve met who have been told by...
Do you know the Key Accessorizing Rules?
Before I became a Stylist, I bought a lot of accessories. I don’t just mean bags and shoes but jewellery too: statement earrings, necklaces, chokers, bracelets. If I liked it, I wore it and paid zero attention if the items suited me or not. This was of course prior to...
Just Smile for the Camera and be Yourself…
Easier said than done right? Especially if you don’t like getting your photo taken. You’re self-conscious and you’re faking your smile so when the photographer says “relax and be yourself’ you want to scream, wanting the whole experience to be over immediately! This...
Can You be an Inspiration to Your Peer Group?
At the end of the 5-day Train to be a Personal Stylist course we have a one-to-one business planning session and one of the questions I always ask is: Who do you intend to style now that you’re a trained Personal Stylist? The answer I get is always the same: “Men,...
