“I felt so comfortable with you because you were so kind and gentle in your approach. Not once did I feel embarrassed (despite wondering if I might feel this before we started; with my wardrobe normally feeling rather tired and a bit random and yours being so fabulous!)”

“It’s been a very stressful few months where life has had to very much revolve around my young children and to have a whole afternoon dedicated just to me and to upping my confidence and giving me outfits and ideas for my wardrobe was so so special.”

Today has been soo helpful - I'm usually really bad at visualising and putting outfits together so today was such an eye opener to see the different outfits that can be made from the clothes I already have!

The outfits were so me and made me feel so confident. Can't wait to hit the shops to see what else is out there that will make me feel good about myself

“From the start I found your advice really interesting and eye opening. I’ve got rid of a few more items today that don’t spark joy/don’t leave me feeling amazing when I wear them. I think I found it hard at first to part with some stuff but looking back on the photos and the experience of the afternoon I have been left feeling so much more excited and invigorated about my current wardrobe than I ever thought possible!”

“Before starting the personal shop Katie sent me several questionnaires which were really in depth and contained lots of images with different styles. I recorded the styles of clothing that I liked and disliked, choose colours that I typically wore, highlighted some of my insecurities and chose celeb styles which inspired me the most.

When I got to town I was so amazed to find that Katie had already been to all of my favourite shops and hand selected a rail of goodies. To me it felt like Christmas! It was so exciting to see every individual piece that was chosen, and I couldn’t wait to try it all on. It was clear that Katie had really studied the questionnaires and put together outfits that were a little out my comfort zone but not too crazy.

Katie had a really good eye for what would look good on me and managed to pick out great pieces. Never in my life have I owned a pair of flares, I had always been dying to try some on but being a curvier girl with a big bum felt I’d be drowned in them. After our first 2 shops I’d already bought 3 pairs of flares, we styled them with a plain tee, some accessories and a cute pair of kitten heels and I honestly felt a million bucks. Nobody ever has the patience to shop with me and she honestly gave me so much confidence and inspiration. She taught me a few tricks and rules such as different tucks, which I literally use every day now!

I absolutely loved my personal shop. I was given some really good advice, and it has really changed the way I shop. I'm super happy and feel like a totally different person with new confidence in the new clothes. I would definitely use this service again.”

“Thank you @katiemaxwellstylist for making me feel like a lady.”
