Alison G – a Mining Engineer

Sophia Loren Quote

As a busy Mining Engineer spending much of my career on mine sites, I don’t often practice wearing anything that is not designed for work.

Now that I perform management roles, presenting at conferences and boards,  I lost weight and needed a new wardrobe with a new enhanced style that reflected these changes in my career.

I walked into a clothing retailer in my casual clothes and met Avra. Without me saying a word, she started to suggest great combinations of dress, hair, jewellery and colour to reflect my work requirements.

I am grateful for the stylish makeover Avra achieved for me. She is very positive, creatively focused and personable. Avra brings out the best in anyone and is always working with you. I would recommend her anytime…..

I had a very important job interview coming up and wanted to look my best.

Avra not only picked out some fabulous outfits for me, but helped me to understand “why” these outfits worked for my body shape and style

Her knowledge of fashion and her combination of care and humour allowed for a fun afternoon of styling – plus the final outfit had me so confident that I landed the job with no stress! Avra, who will treat you as a friend, not a customer, is a fabulous stylist.

I highly recommend anyone thinking of working with her.

Janice  M – a medical professional

I am a busy medical professional with two young children. When I looked in my wardrobe I felt totally uninspired but lacked the time and energy to change the situation.

Totally against my norm, I arranged for Avra to visit my house and give me some tips about how to change my wardrobe and achieve a look that fitted my style, body shape, and budget. (I met her just once!)

I loved that Avra took the time to get to know me, and my fashion style. (I didn’t even know how to articulate what I liked, or that I even had a “style”!).

Incredibly, Avra set about the transformation and turned a session looking at my old clothes into a very enjoyable evening, seeing potential in what I already own.

Now I can go shopping with more “direction” in a fraction of the time I did previously. Avra boosted my confidence in being my own “fashion stylist”, able to choose clothes and accessories that I like and which suit me and….. have fun whilst at it!
