Testimonials

As the mother of two small children I needed help with a very limited post- pregnancy wardrobe and equally limited opportunities for shopping. I wanted to know what clothes would suit my transitioning shape and then find some way of actually shopping for them.

An Image Update with Samantha solved both of these issues brilliantly. Not only did she suggest styles and colours that would suit me but when it came to shopping Sam was a dynamo. I needed to be time efficient, work to a budget and make successful purchases and that's exactly what we did. I've never enjoyed shopping so much!

My wardrobe is now beautifully arranged (by Samantha) and full of pieces, old and new, that work together to form so many different looks, which Sam put together during the wardrobe styling & incorporation. And this, together with the way Sam suggested I apply makeup, saves me precious time in the morning.

What I loved about Samantha was her ability to're-style' me without compromising my personal comfort which is why I would recommend her as a stylist to absolutely anyone.

I recently had an Image Update with Samantha from Show me the Style. Not only was the whole process loads of fun, I now have the knowledge to pick up outfits that look great on me and no longer go home with nothing, with an awful feeling about myself. I never say "I have nothing to wear" anymore because Samantha has taught me how to mix and match all the old in with the new and use everything in my wardrobe. I know the Image Update has equipped me with tips and tricks I can use for the rest of my life and will also save me loads of money. The best money I've ever spent. Thanks Samantha!

Morning Samantha

Just a quick note to say how much I enjoyed & learned from my Personal Shopping/Style Session with you. Since our shopping experience - Friends & Family have commented on my choice of outfits as well as mentioning how much they would enjoy having a session with you.

I found you to be very easy going and this made my Personal Shopping/Style Session heaps of fun and honestly I could have stayed and shopped with you all day. I don't think that I have laughed so much whilst shopping. For my Personal Shopping/Style Session I wanted at least one outfit for work and one casual outfit and I wanted to do this on a budget. With your help I managed to do this ( I managed to get at least 2 work outfits and a few casual outfits) all within my budget!

Look forward to seeing you again over the winter months.

Thanks & Regards

Dear Samantha

Thanks so much for meeting with me today - I really enjoyed our session and there were heaps of great tips, tricks and ideas that you passed on, which will be of great use to me. It's exactly what I was hoping to get out of today - so thank you! After I write this I intend to write down all of the things I learnt today and use them as my style guide when shopping.

I am a woman in my mid 60s, recently retired, and felt I wanted to start on this new phase of my life in a very positive way - determined not to be a drab old lady!

Sam was recommended to me by a former workmate and the adventure began.

Our first meeting was to choose new glasses for me, something I hate doing because I'm as blind as a bat without my glasses and always have to rely on a sales assistant to guide me. I could hardly believe how quickly she found the perfect style, I love them.

Then it was the wardrobe cull and organisation - what fun! I actually didn't have to discard much but I loved the order in the wardrobe. Once that was done we were set to purchase a few extra pieces to tie it all together (very budget aware), get the makeup and then do the final wardrobe coordination and the make up lesson. I have to tell you, I think I look a million dollars these days.

I would recommend Sam's services to anyone who is feeling a bit jaded or just thinks they could do with a little bit of help with wardrobe or makeup, or just wants to be the centre of attention for a brief while. You will be just as delighted as I am, I'm sure.

Originally mildly optimistic about the benefits of style advice, I am now 100% enthusiastic. Samantha has helped me understand not only what suits me and my life but also what I need to look for, what I need to hang in my wardrobe and how to put ideal outfits together.

Samantha is smart, talented, very dedicated and professional. I will be back for more 'style' support in the future.

I recently completed an "Image Update" with Sam. What an experience - my wardrobe is now streamlined; everything in it fits me and looks good!

The first session, going through my existing wardrobe, inspired me to get rid of many clothes I was hanging onto that I was never going to wear again. The shopping trip provided me with some key pieces.After spending time with me before the personal shopping, Sam had an insight into my lifestyle and style preferences. The last session, integrating the old with the new, was particularly important; it gave me the final boost of confidence to mix and match.

The make-up session provided me with straight forward advice - although I'm not convinced I'll ever master the dreaded eyeliner pencil!

I can't recommend this package highly enough. If you feel that your style needs a total overhaul or just some tweaking, this is the way to go. Sam is passionate about what she does and is genuinely interested in improving your style and self image. And if that isn't reason enough, you'll have tons of fun!!

Today I looked great. I am able to say that with confidence because of my recent Image Update with Samantha of "Show Me The Style".

I've worn the clothes I had on today many times in the past but I can honestly say that I've never felt as good in them before. The transformation in my self-confidence is amazing. I walked out the door this morning knowing that I looked terrific.

The first and most important thing that I learned from Samantha was to dress for my shape. After losing 40 kg and toning up considerably at the gym, I had to relearn what suited my body shape. Samantha showed me that choosing clothes that were the right style, colour and length for my body would help me to look good in all situations.

The Image Update involved three sessions. At the first one we went through my wardrobe together, getting rid of a few disaster items and sorting my clothes into groups. Samantha explained to me why certain styles worked better for me than others. I started to understand what it was about some of my favourite clothes that made me love them and why I avoided wearing other outfits. An added bonus was that my wardrobe was organised in such a way that I am able to quickly see what's there and decide what I'm going to wear each day.

During this session I learned to look at my clothes differently. Samantha helped me to see that the blouse I wore today would look fabulous with my olive suit. I discovered that wearing the matching belt, which I usually left in the cupboard, would emphasise my waistline. Samantha suggested that simple accessories could make a huge difference as well. By the end of the session, even though I hadn't spent a cent on new clothes, I felt as though I'd gained several new outfits.

After reviewing my wardrobe and finding out more about my lifestyle, Samantha came up with a recommended shopping list for me. It included a mix of casual and business clothes, underwear, makeup, shoes and accessories. I worked out a budget and we went shopping. Shopping with Samantha was a relevation.

It was a fabulous fun-filled experience. I was amazed at how quickly we were able to find the clothes and accessories we wanted. Knowing what to look for saved so much time, she also gave me lots of tips.

With Samantha's encouragement I've learned to venture out in fashionable high heels instead of wearing flat granny shoes. I've rediscovered jewellery and am learning to wear makeup again. Samantha says all fabulous outfits start with good foundations I now wear a flattering waist shaper that makes such a difference to the way my clothes look.

After the shopping expedition Samantha helped me to integrate my new clothes with my existing wardrobe. She also showed me how to apply my makeup. It was such fun!
