My personal journey
I was a Manager in the NHS for many years and often went to work feeling uncomfortable with the way I was dressed, wearing what I thought I should to try and ‘fit in’, with beige neutral tones and ‘frumpy’ suits.
I met up with a friend of mine who looked fantastic, and she told me about House of Colour. On her suggestion I made an appointment with my local House of Colour consultant and WOW – what a transformation!! I found out I was a Sultry Winter and should be wearing strong clear contrasting colours like emerald, fuchsia, electric blue, black, charcoal, navy, burgundy and forest green and best of all, I looked great in pink lipstick! I was rated in my colours and found out which were my absolute best.
How things changed at work; suddenly people were interested in my opinion, I started receiving compliments telling me how well I looked, asking whether I had been on holiday, had I been on a diet. It really boosted my confidence and within 6 months I had a much higher profile.
A few months later at my Image Class I discovered I was a ‘romantic classic’ which meant that I should wear classic clothes but with softer lines for work, going more ‘dressy’ at home to reveal the real me. Again this increased my confidence so I felt I could do anything I set out to do. People treated me differently and seemed to value what I had to say. What was even better was that I saved MONEY and TIME when I went shopping because I could easily ignore clothes that were not my colour or style, so REDUCED my wardrobe but in fact had MORE to wear!
I passed my ‘secret’ on to people I knew who went on to take the same journey. I was so inspired by the obvious changes not only in me but in them too, that I decided to train to become a consultant so that I could pass this knowledge on, to show others how powerful this journey of colour and image can be whatever your lifestyle. If you feel great and look your best you put a real value on yourself. Through my experience I learned that in order to reach your potential the best investment you can make is in yourself.
Please do give me a call to find out more, or perhaps come to one of my introductory evenings (run on the first Thursday of each month) and enjoy a glass of wine, meet new people and learn more about what colour can do for you – I think you will be surprised!
