Dear Catherine,

I came back to civilisation last night and got to open up all the bags we filled on Friday – I LOVE my new wardrobe, thank you so much for all your time and expertise and for making the whole experience so fun as well! You’ve really given me a huge amount of confidence in what I can wear, and I can’t begin to tell you what a difference it’s made to me. My fiancé is also a huge fan –  he says (and I agree) that you’ve picked things which I would never choose for myself, but which actually make me look more ‘me’!

I’m taking only a few items back, and am planning to buy some more of the Zara trousers and &OS shirts in other colours especially; I’m also writing a J Crew shopping list for when I’m in the US this summer as you suggested!

Huge thanks again,
Claire

Hi Catherine,

Thank you so much for such a great day yesterday. It was so much fun and I love all my new clothes. It was so lovely to get to a shop and have everything ready to try on (most of the time!!). The most difficult part was that I liked almost everything you chose. I regret not buying the black dress and I’m going to order it online later! I’m also going to keep an eye out for the red dress going in the sale.

Thank you again, both Amy and I have a brilliant day,

Thank you Catherine,
I really enjoyed yesterday. The photos are very useful as a point of reference as there was a lot to take in while we were going through my wardrobe.
I will get the orange jacket and try on some bomber jackets.
I am genuinely really looking forward to reading your summary.
Thanks again, it was lots of fun and I’m feeling energised about my wardrobe again.
Have a great weekend.

Thank you for my new capsule wardrobe – with clothes for work, going out and for time spent with my young son and ideas on how I can interchange different pieces to make completely different outfits. The report that you compiled, after our (much needed) ruthless session with my wardrobe, was great and gave me ideas of how to wear my remaining wardrobe differently and how to layer items together.
Our shopping trip today was brilliant – from the clothes already being ready in the shops before we visited, to your real time additions whilst I was in the fitting rooms. I felt completely at ease and your mantra of me having “to love it” means I know I will wear everything that we bought today.
In fact I have already passed on you name as a recommendation to a lady on the train who was amazed with the bags of clothes and my time spent with you – she thought I was a very lucky woman to have such an experience and I wholeheartedly agree!
Thanks again
Sarah

Hi Catherine,

I’m so sorry for the delay in replying to you. I’ve been wanting to say a huge thank you since yesterday. I really appreciated all of your help and advice and I have come away feeling much happier so much more confident.

I will definitely stay in touch and thanks for the photos of the dresses, the one with the tulip skirt looks amazing!!!

Thank you again,

Emma

Thank you so much for our fab day along the Kings Road. I eventually put everything away yesterday evening after a
manic weekend. My cousin who is really into her fashion, blogs etc thought the purchases were great. I wore the brown ankle boots to lunch with jeans, my burgundy J Crew long-sleeved top and ZARA casual faux-leather jacket. Felt great to have some new things!
Thank you also for all the links to clothes. I am about to look up where there is an All Saints as the things that you have selected look great. The scarves look lovely – the Tina Sparkle one you picked has lovely colours and presumably with go with lots of the things I have – I got a bit overwhelmed looking at all the options on the Hayley Menzies site!

Hope you had a fun weekend.

Hi Catherine

Thanks a million for all your help and suggestions yesterday. You are just brilliant at what you do and you are really helping me to not be afraid of colour and try things that I wouldn’t normally go for. My previously black/grey wardrobe is nearly gone! I realise that I am a tricky customer at times so thanks for bearing with me.

All the best for Christmas and see you next year,
Carolyn

Good morning.
Aside from how insanely hot it was in the stores yesterday I had a great day.
Thank you for you time and help.
After looking through the pics I decided I didn’t like the green dress on me.
I’ve gone from having a hard time getting dressed because I didn’t have anything to having a hard time because I just can’t decide!
Will certainly be in touch for another shopping trip.
Thank you
Kiley

I’m so very happy that you contacted me Catherine!!! It means to world to me!

The wedding was absolutely perfect. Nicole (the bride and my daughter) was absolutely beautiful. I’ll never, ever forget that day and the whole weekend. I’ve attached a couple pictures for you. I love, love my dress. My brother took one picture of me and said that I looked just like Audrey Hepburn, although I’m pretty sure that I’m far from looking like Audrey Hepburn!!! lol  If you lived in the USA, you would have LOTS of business because I told everyone how absolutely wonderful you were….helping me find my dress and shoes.  I stayed in my shoes from 2:00 until 9:30 before I put the flat shoes on. PERFECT!!!

Morning Catherine!

I had an amazing day again. My family loved the clothes – mum LOVED the J Crew stuff! They were amazed at how everything went together. Am looking forward to sorting my wardrobe this week.

Have bought a couple of pairs of the new balance shoes and also the handbag so look forward to them arriving tomorrow. Will call and try and order the dress. Fingers crossed!
