Mels Story

Mel’s story – as seen in Hub magazine in June 2011

“When I met Claire at one of her ‘Style Up’ parties I wasn’t sure what I was letting myself in for, but my wardrobe most definitely needed a major overhaul.

I was stuck in a fashion (or I should say unfashion-able) rut!

I am a busy mum of two, like every other mum juggling so many things: building a business, home, health, schools etc etc. I was having a sartorial identity crisis, with no time to solve it.

What look exactly am I trying to achieve here- ‘yummy mummy’ or pre-children old idea of an image in my head of ‘trendy thirty something’ rock chick, which is no longer relevant?

I also had a wardrobe rammed full of irrelevant never worn clothes which made it impossible to find the ones I could actually wear, and the ones I should have worn were; well, you have heard the phrase “saving for best”. But best never came! I think a lot of women probably can relate to these issues.

I was compromising in all areas! Claire made me realise every day is best! Wear those heels you hardly ever wear, the posh jackets and dresses. After spending time with Claire I got to realise what suits me, what doesn’t. She is honest and tells you the truth about your look, which you can never get with friends or husbands, I have found! Vitally important!.

I know my colours now- which is just such an investment- no more bewildering shopping sprees opting for impulse purchases for colours which don’t really suit me and sit unloved at the back of an already crowded pile of non-suiters! Now I know precisely what colours I need, I am less of a random spray pellet type shopper and more of a heat seeking missile! It has saved me money.

I feel confident in my choices, and so much more at ease with my outfits. Claire has an uncanny knack of being able to find (on the shopping trip I did with her) the perfect match of clothes which will inspire you, make you feel happy and confident with your purchases. She has helped me develop a certain look which is unique to me and to see what suits me and helped me to believe more in my own creative style.
Now I know how to achieve what I want.

I was a perfect case for Claire to solve!”
