"I'm writing to say Thank you' on behalf of Caroline, Iris & myself (and, of course, Barbara) for a really useful and enjoyable morning last Saturday. We all found it very interesting and have each spent time since looking closely at our wardrobes! I confess I have several black polo necks, which are now an endangered species destined for the charity bag.
You'll be pleased to know that we went shopping in Boston Spa on Saturday afternoon with our swatches, and we all, except Barbara, managed to buy something. I bought a v-neck sweater with a shawl collar in a camel shade with gold thread, Iris bought an aubergine jumper, and Caroline bought a red shirt and a bright pink wrap - colours she wouldn't have bought in the past -so we're taking the lessons to heart.
My only problem seems to be that M & S's Per Una range is currently full of the colours in my swatch - so I'm itching to spend lots of money!"

"Having completed an Image Profile, Wardrobe Assessment and 2 shopping trips, I wanted to write and thank you for transforming the way I think about clothes, what suits me, what, and how to buy both clothes and accessories. What a revelation!
My first meeting with you at your studio was for the Image Profile which covered everything from my personal image, colour analysis, body and face shape came at a time when my self confidence was very low (having gained some weight, leaving me feeling shapeless and unattractive). Your non-judgemental, friendly and encouraging attitude at that meeting made me realise that there was something I could do to find my own identity once again.
Our subsequent meeting to carry out a Wardrobe Assessment left my wardrobe bare, but with a shopping list of items needed and a date for a shopping trip!! On both our shopping trips, you have gently encouraged me to try items which normally I would have ignored and to methodically go through reasons to buy or discard without letting my heart rule my head. Combine this with the knowledge of your subject and a whole lot of patience has resulted in a brilliant new wardrobe.
My partner (who paid for my sessions with you as a present), was rather sceptical at first, but now looks upon it as an investment, as he can see the results, not only in what I buy but the confidence in knowing that what I buy and how I wear it works for me.
Once again Sally,
I can only thank you and look forward to our next shopping trip.
With best wishes " L. Banks
