Service

What happens in a Wardrobe Wake-up?

First of all, I write to you to confirm the appointment and ask you how you spend your time, for example, work, leisure activities, hobbies, travel, domestic, gardening, family, holidays. The idea being that you spend your money on clothes for activities you spend most of your time doing.

Then I visit you in your home and we go through your clothes and accessories, looking at colour and style, filtering out anything that doesn’t fit you, what can go to the charity shop. I also give my recommendations on appropriate necklines, fabrics, and patterns which would best enhance your shape, style and scale.

I then organise your wardrobe in a way that works for you. There are various ways to do this, for example, by colour, purpose, season, or style or any combination of these. So, you could have a wardrobe divided into seasons (spring, summer, autumn, winter) and then within those seasons, subdivided accordingly. I then follow up with a letter summarising your colour and style and make some recommendations as to the gaps in your wardrobe and useful websites to look at.

As part of the service, I can also take other items to the charity shop, saving you even more time and effort. In this respect, and more, Wardrobe Wake-up is a very unique service.

My tips to dress your best...

❤ Wear colours and styles that suit you.

❤ Get organised! The best advice I can give is to decide the night before what you want to wear the next day. Saves huge amounts of stress in the morning!

❤ Note the right neckline and fabric to suit your face and body shape.

❤ Be aware that our eyes are always drawn to horizontal lines, for instance a low hemline will make you seem shorter, and if your hem falls on your widest part, that will draw attention to it.

❤ Notice that light colours come forward and dark ones recede.

❤ Spend your money on clothes where you spend most of your time.

❤ When buying separates, ideally, they should go with three other items already in your wardrobe, be suitable for three different seasons and three different occasions depending on how you layer them and what accessories you put with them.

❤ Wear your best clothes more often!

Testimonials ★★★★★

“I recently underwent a ‘Wardrobe Wake-Up’ from the lovely Carole Greenland, and boy did I need it. I knew I had a pile of clothes in my wardrobe that didn’t suit me, and even though I wasn’t wearing them, I just couldn’t throw them out! It’s been very cathartic to work with Carole and clear out that stuff.

Carole was brilliant and put together outfits I never would have considered; she has bought to life tops and trousers I had long buried under other clothes. I now have a whole ‘new’ wardrobe of outfits from my existing clothes.

It’s not often I buy new clothes, mostly as I just don’t enjoy it and can never find anything I really like, so Carole has recommended a whole load of stores I’ve never heard of whose styles and colours fit perfectly with what I am looking for.

We had a great afternoon discussing styles, colours, shoes, accessories and even make up – I never thought I would enjoy it so much, it felt like a real treat.

Carole has followed up our appointment with a very thorough email outlining all that we ‘discovered’ with a whole host of links to stores and her recommendations for a few essential purchases that I can’t wait to go out and find.

Thanks Carole for an extremely enjoyable and highly beneficial afternoon!

I can highly recommend Carole if your Wardrobe needs a Wake-Up too!”
