An interactive workshop experience with personal stylist Emma Shoe, sharing her expertise on how to create a wardrobe you'll truly treasure! How To Create A Wardrobe To Treasure............ Do you have a wardrobe full of clothes that you don't love? Do you have lots of things hanging in your wardrobe you never or rarely wear? Do you mostly default to the same few outfits all the time? Thinking you'd like to have less stuff, but value what you do have more? Keen to discover more planet friendly ways to update your wardrobe? This group styling experience is for you if you answered yes to any of these questions. During the workshop, we will share wardrobe treasures, discuss personal style, look at shape and colour and more sustainable ways to create your wardrobe. You'll get the opportunity to 'play' with creating outfits and experiment with new looks for your own wardrobe. The practical and tangible outcomes you'll experience from this workshop include: How to edit what's in your wardrobe. Emma's approach to eliminate regretful shopping mistakes and binge buying. The flat-lay method to create outfits and plan looks. How to create your wardrobe of treasure. Why and how to embrace the circular fashion model. Access to Emma's black book of favourite pre-loved treasure troves. About Emma: Emma (Shoe) Reed is the founder of Styling You Well. She is a former shoe designer turned personal stylist and image consultant. She has over twelve years expertise styling women, transforming confidence and mindset to elevate professional presence. Emma's clients are entrepreneurs, creatives and leaders, professional women dealing with major life changes or transitioning from experiences like the menopause, divorce, illness, promotion, career change or returning to work post maternity leave. Kind words... "Emma is a fantastic personal stylist. She put items together that I never would have thought of myself. This is her unique gift. She has great knowledge of body shapes and made suggestions that were really flattering. She is also a master at accessorising. I would highly recommend her if you need some styling support." "I took the opportunity in lock-down to take a hard look at my personal style - or perhaps lack of personal style is a more appropriate phrase! Having left corporate life behind a few years ago, I felt I knew how to dress smartly and I LOVE my jeans and gold trainers but I knew that there had to be something stylish yet relaxed that looked AND felt great...I just couldn't seem to find it alone. Cue Emma. I'd attended one of her Capsule Wardrobe Styling sessions in Hampton which opened my eyes to the possibility of having a small but hard-working wardrobe with the right accessories to make it feel fresh. So, I booked in for Emma's virtual styling session which was a revelation! I quickly understood why I didn't feel (or look) great in certain pieces and which styles and colours really work/don't work for my body shape and skin-tone. I also realised that I'd been stuck in a colour rut for quite some time. It was time to say good-bye to black. It also became obvious during the session that there were giant gaps in my wardrobe - mostly due to my overly-enthusiastic Marie Kondo-style clear outs! My interest in shopping for clothes has been renewed - I feel like I have a better idea of what I should be looking for which makes it all so much easier and more fun. I'm also feeling much braver with colour. I can't wait to take Emma shopping with me in real life. She knows her stuff and she's also great fun to be around." "Emma was such a joy to help me go through my wardrobe and get me interested in clothes again. She was kind, honest, practical and had a very stylish take on my limited wardrobe. I trusted her judgement implicitly and was buzzing after our session. Highly recommend Emma for her professionalism and empathy plus the fabulous outfits."
