Firstly, I introduce you to the concept of colour ‘seasons’ and explain how each season corresponds to different tones and shades. This helps set the foundation for understanding which colours naturally enhance your features.

Next, I guide you through a short questionnaire so that I have got all the information that I need to ensure a worthwhile appointment for you. I then use a set of seasonal colour drapes to see how various shades look on you and I carefully observe which colours complement your skin tone, eyes, and hair.

After analysing the results, I show you which season you belong to and show you which colours complement your skin tone, eyes, and hair. This means that you will gain a clear understanding of your colour palette, allowing you to make informed decisions about what to wear.

We then have some fun exploring the full range of colour drapes in your season, discussing which basics and neutrals are essential, how you can mix and match, and what you personally prefer, along with how these colours apply to make up and jewellery choices.

Lastly, after answering all your questions, I provide your handy colour swatch and talk you through how to use it, so that you can eliminate any colour uncertainty.

This is easy – you absolutely do not because I will not be assessing what you have turned up in! However, I do ask that you do not wear anything that is high-necked, as that might get in the way of the colour drapes. I also ask, if at all possible, to come without makeup (but a little bit of mascara won’t hurt).

I send an information sheet that covers all this prior to our appointment.

After a colour consultation, most clients feel excited about their newfound understanding and colour choices, and actually want to have a clear out that makes sense because most women only wear about 20 to 30 percent of the clothes that they own, so there is always scope for a cull.

As part of the consultation, I will talk you through how to make the most of what you have in your wardrobe. We will definitely be working towards a cull so as to simplify your options and to learn what goes with which. The aim is to have easy outfit choices once we are finished and a lot less clutter.

Your colour season remains unchanged as you age; however, sometimes it helps to go for less intense versions of the colours that you have always previously worn.

More often though, you might have been wearing colours from the wrong palette, and they are way less forgiving on older or ageing skin, so the clash stands out more. Wearing the colours from the right season for you can make a huge difference.

Finding your style personality is a good start, and I can help you figure that out with questions about your lifestyle needs and what image you want to present.

Once we know this, looking good is about getting clothing that is the right colour, shape, and fit for your figure in line with your style personality.

If you are a current or previous client – yes. If you have something in mind but are a little unsure, get in touch and we can do a short video call so that you can show me your outfit.

I will give you my advice, and if you need more help with shopping or a look book, we can arrange that, too.
