Meet Nicola

“I am deeply passionate about helping women embrace their changing body shapes with confidence. I believe that every woman deserves to feel empowered and beautiful, regardless of their size or shape. My mission is to provide personalized styling solutions that not only enhance their appearance but also nurture their self-esteem and body positivity”

On leaving university with a BA(Hons) degree Fashion Merchandise Management, I entered the world of Buying and Merchandising. After the birth of my first son then relocating to the Middle East in 2009, in order to transition back into work, I gave myself a confidence boost by gaining a Diploma in Fashion Styling. From there I never looked back, owning my own Styling Practice working with personal clients, still shoots for media production projects and wardrobe styling for Sky News Arabia and Rotana TV.

Fast forward 2023 and entering middle age, my love for fashion has evolved into giving confidence to women who are going through peri and menopausal changes while acknowledging the effects fashion has on the environment.

I understand that our bodies evolve over time due to various factors such as age, lifestyle changes, and health fluctuations. Rather than seeing these changes as obstacles, I view

them as opportunities to explore new styles and celebrate individuality. Through attentive listening and understanding, I work closely with my clients to discover their unique preferences, lifestyle needs, and comfort levels. Whether it's finding the perfect outfit for a special occasion or revamping their everyday wardrobe, I prioritize their comfort and confidence above all else. By offering personalized styling tips, body-positive encouragement, and practical fashion advice, I empower women to express themselves authentically and fearlessly through their clothing choices.

Let's embrace your uniqueness, celebrate your strengths, and adorn yourself with confidence and grace. LET’S STYLE YOUR STORY

Virtual Styling

Is finding time to hit the local shops an issue? Or do you simply find shopping from the comfort of your own

home a luxury, but could possibly be a returns disaster waiting to happen? The virtual styling packages are for you.

‘Am I too old?’

Mary Lowman, 39, a computer sales representative from a London based software company, recalls the day over Summer when she went shopping for her holiday denim cut off’s. She used to ask herself whether her legs were long enough or slender enough for shorts. This time the question was; ‘Am I too old?’

Many women reaching the age of 40 may feel self-conscious about how they dress due to societal expectations and perceptions surrounding aging. Additionally, changes in body shape and a desire to embrace a more sophisticated style can contribute to heightened self-awareness when it comes to fashion choices.

If this is you, the Ultimate Wardrobe Edit may be the answer to all your prayers. During our time together we explore colours to embrace or avoid, look at your current body shape and discuss what you wish to achieve when it comes to your style identity. We take the day to day stresses away by categorizing your wardrobe to become more manageable and most importantly, we cleanse ourselves of all those items that do not serve you at this time in your life, and create new and exciting outfits from your current wardrobe.

‘My body did not used to look like this’

Annabel Bonnington, 47, a housewife from Derbyshire is at her wits end with her Menopasual symptoms. Consistent weight gain, changing body shape and constant hot flushes. Once a lover of fashion investing in high end brands, good quality fabrics and dressing for the occasion, she now grabs for a legging, cotton t-shirt and denim shirt trio.

Like Annabel, a significantly high number of women experience unpleasant symptoms due to changes in hormones. With a body that is unrecognizable to what is your norm, self confidence and self-esteem can take a real beating.

I cannot help with your symptoms but I can help you embrace your new body shape. The Style and Shop package looks at your current wardrobe to understand which versatile pieces are missing to help create stylish yet practical outfits. On our shopping trip we will look at comfortable fabrics to address temperature fluctuations, look at flattering silhouettes to disguise your hang ups and accentuate your best bits. Most importantly you will have the support in navigating fashion challenges associated with Menopause. Emphasizing the positive aspects of your appearance to ensure you feel good about yourself.

‘Going back to work after 22 years and have no idea what to wear’

Lynne Stanford, 52, a fully trained solicitor from Swindon chose to put her career on hold when having her children, now aged 18 and 21. With both now fully grown adults, Lynne is due to re enter the workforce in a well respected Law firm. Whilst she is excited about this major life changing event, Lynne cannot help but feel overwhelmed and anxious about her appearance and non existent work wardrobe.

With The Ultimate Transformation Package, we got back to basics and I supported Lynne as she made the very daunting transition from stay-at-home mum, to high powered career woman.

Not only does this package inspire a new style personality and analyse your colours and body shape, but the trio of shopping experiences that follow, will ensure you are building a working capsule wardrobe for each coming season.

‘I just don’t know where to start with my sense of style,

or lack of!’

Deena Choudray, 42, a single mother to three children, works full-time in social care and plays chef, cleaner and taxi service to her growing brood. With no time for herself, her once enviable wardrobe has dwindled to an array of fast fashion online purchases with no real direction.

Deena’s sister jumped to her rescue and purchased the Stylist Starter package’ as a gift for her birthday. After a wonderful consultation with Deena her mind was put at ease with a plan of action and the first steps we needed in place, to ensure she was on the road to a style recovery.

You too can start your style journey with this package. Let’s start with a blank canvas and let the story unfold.
