Create a Versatile Wardrobe

Sessions include:

Seasonal colour analysis including a colour fan with fabric swatches.

Body shape and style analysis to discover your Clothing Personality

Bespoke shopping recommendations.

Practical tips to shop smarter, more mindfully, reducing decision fatigue.

Advice on hair colour and jewellery.

An introduction to skincare and makeup.

I believe your wardrobe should support the life you live right now. Having items that mix and match frees your time and provides easy outfit options. We have amazing tools such as Colour Analysis and Personal Styling that help you achieve the goal of having a wardrobe full of clothes you love to wear.

Discovering your undertone (warm or cool) is a game changer for choosing clothes and makeup. Clients say, 

"I feel so much more empowered with my wardrobe"

"I'm choosing colours I wouldn't have dreamed of before"

"I can't thank you enough"

There is a lot of misleading information online! Our process is NOT our best guess based on vein colour or eye colour, it is a deeper level assessment of your natural undertone that leads us to work out your best colour palette.  It's a process refined over 40+ years, based on colour science.

Once you have your colour palette the next step is to delve into style. This is where we identify your Clothing Personality (aka signature style) and discover the clothing shapes, fabrics, prints and details that align with your body shape. We also look at how to express your personality through what you wear, leading to an authentic and confident image. This is where the true transformation happens!

We have fabric swatches in our colour fans, high quality style materials and give you personalised shopping recommendations via our style portal. This brings it all to life for you and shows you where to find your best looks.

Clients tell me the biggest shift is not just in how they look, it is how much they enjoy shopping and feel that getting dressed becomes more effortless.

Who are my clients? Professional women and men, mums, brides-to-be, students, and anyone looking to elevate their style, shop more sustainably and know what suits them.

About Me

I have been a House of Colour consultant since 2019. Prior to that time I was a busy working mum with little time to spend on myself. 

My wardrobe was filled with clothes and yet I was wearing the same outifits on repeat. Shopping was random, rushed and last-minute!

Discovering House of Colour changed everything.

I have helped hundreds of women and men across Essex, London and the South-East find exactly what works for them. Every single session still reminds me how important this work is.

Watching my clients  embrace their potential and burst with confidence is everything to me. I run my sessions from my light and bright studio space in Hutton, CM13. It is private and welcoming wth easy parking available nearby.

Closest station is Shenfield on the Elizabeth Line or Greater Anglia route.

Clients say it best!

"I had an amazing day with Kelly - she was kind, friendly, and clearly very knowledgeable when it came to how to understand which colour season worked best, and going through the style session. I liked that for the style session, she took a more holistic approach and was really attentive to some of the thoughts I had on my personal style and how these worked together, and helped suggest different ideas which were both items or styles I would gravitate to, as well as those that might stretch me a bit but offer a nice change to my wardrobe. The colours analysis was really interesting and I feel excited and confident in approaching shopping with my new palette- thank you so much Kelly!" Tanya

"I recently had a Colour Analysis with Kelly. She is clearly a master of her craft and answered all of my questions! I really felt like I was in safe hands throughout the whole process. The analysis felt thorough and Kelly was really considerate of my style and made tips on how colour can relate to style choices. Her suggestions in the HOCLookBook so far have all been fantastic. I feel much more empowered with my wardrobe since my Colour Analysis!" Matthew

"Thank you for a wonderful day. Honestly I can’t explain how much I loved it! I haven’t stopped smiling. I went shopping with my daughter today and didn’t really buy much but just enjoyed browsing for my colours. I picked up a t shirt in navy and pair of comfy shorts in soft white. I can’t wait to sort my wardrobe out! Although I may have to book in for style asap!" Rachel

"I have recently had a colour consultation with Kelly. Kelly was very encouraging and professional. I am someone who struggled to know what clothes to buy and after my time with Kelly I came away with increased confidence. I feel excited to wear colours that I would not have even considered before. Would highly recommend." Sarah

 FAQs

Will you tell me that I can't wear black?

I'm giving you tools, not rules! If you have a favourite colour that is not part of your best colour palette, we'll look at how to make it work.

Do I need to replace my whole wardrobe?

Not at all. You’ll learn how to use what you already own and gradually add new pieces. There is usually a way to make something work, even if it's not your best colour.

Can I do this if I’ve dyed my hair or gone grey?

Yes – your natural undertone doesn’t change, so your palette remains relevant with your natural hair colouring. If you dye your hair I will be able to advise you on which shades work best for you.

What if my favourite colours aren’t in my palette?

In every palette there are blues, greens, reds, yellows and plenty of neutrals. There’s always flexibility – I’ll show you how to adapt and make colours work for you. Did you know that true red is a universal colour? if you think that you can't wear red - you most certainly can!

Do you offer online services?

For style analysis, yes it is possible to carry out a session virtually so we can link up from anywhere in the world. For colour analysis, the answer is no. Our process is thorough, based in science and only carried out in natural daylight. Sessions are detailed and give you a thorough introduction to colour, an analysis of your undertone, a makeup demonstration and identify your 'wow' colours. Think of it as an experience and one you will always remember!

What payment methods do you have?

Preferred method is via bank transfer. Card or Stripe payments also accepted. If you need to spread the payment we can discuss the options.

Where are you based? 

Sessions are held from my home studio in Hutton, Essex, CM13. The nearest station is Shenfield (Elizabeth Line/Greater Anglia). I'm a short taxi ride from the station or a 25 minute walk. No parking restrictions in the road so it's very convenient to park nearby. I can also travel to you so please enquire about how this works.

What other services do you offer?

I offer colour analysis reviews (aka colour re-rate), group colour sessions, advanced colour and style, online shopping, wardrobe edits. Bespoke sessions can be arranged if you would like to combine services.

If you have a special occasion such as a wedding I offer a full range of services for the bride, groom, MOB/MOG and bridal party members.

My Services

Colour Analysis is just the beginning! I offer a full range of personal styling services for women and men including advice on choosing glasses.

Colour Analysis

Transform getting dressed everyday into an effortless and joyful experience with our life-changing colour analysis.

Through precision-dyed drapes and my expert training, I provide you with invaluable insights of knowing your season; a palette of colours customised to your unique undertones. Our approach is inclusive, serving people of all ages, races, ethnicities, and genders, ensuring that your season remains a timeless guide throughout your life.

Experience the three essential components of our colour sessions:

First is our world-class, scientific draping process that we have refined for excellence and accuracy over the past four decades. Next, I will provide advice on jewellery, watches, glasses, and, when applicable, hair and makeup based on your season. Our makeup eliminates the guesswork, enhancing your natural beauty with colours perfectly suited to you. Finally, we’ll dive further into your season as we identify the best colours for both your casual and professional life, uncovering your collection of WOW colours.

You will leave your appointment equipped with a fan of your seasonal swatches and a tailored brochure filled with personalised tips and reminders specific to you, empowering you to confidently shop for and wear your new colours!

For optimal accuracy, arrive at your analysis without spray tans or makeup. Your privacy is paramount, so no photos will be taken or shared on social media without your consent.

Colour Analysis sessions delivered on a 1:1 basis £295. Discounts available for group sessions (A group can be up to six people)

Colour Analysis for children is available for ages 13 and under at a special rate of £110 (or £165 with colour fan).

Style Analysis

Discover the science and psychology behind personal style by unlocking the power of you. During a style analysis, I'll empower you to seamlessly combine your inner self with your outward appearance, so you can step out into the world radiating confidence as your authentic self.

We consider your proportions, personality, and preferences to give you a style framework - we call this a “Clothing Personality."

You will confidently know which fabrics, prints, patterns, accessories, necklines, details, and silhouettes flatter your unique body architecture best. By integrating your personality into this framework, our style analysis transcends mere fashion guidance, going a step further to help you identify how you feel in different styles and pieces, ensuring that your wardrobe not only reflects your style but also represents your individuality.

For this appointment, you’ll bring 5–10 items from your closet that you LOVE and 5–10 that make you wonder why you don’t feel good when putting them on. Together, we’ll use this information to help you discover why you gravitated toward and loved certain pieces and what it is about the others that weren’t working for you, saving you time and money in the future! At House of Colour, we believe clothing needs to be adjusted to you, not the other way around. It is our goal to make sure you feel your most confident as who you are and how you look right now.

You’ll leave with a book with detailed information specific to you that we’ll fill out during the appointment and a Clothing Personality card with keywords that will help guide you when shopping. If you’ve already had a colour analysis, this card can be inserted into your fan which will make shopping easy and efficient!

Style Analysis sessions delivered on a 1:1 basis £375. Discounts available for group sessions. A group can be up to four people) 

If you would like a style refresh or a bespoke session, contact me for details.

Advanced Colour Analysis

This appointment is ideal for those seeking to refresh or delve deeper into their seasonal palette. Together, we’ll discover your best neutrals and explore an array of colour combinations, empowering you to curate a capsule wardrobe that brings joy with every wear.

Experience tailored makeup recommendations, including your perfect lip colours, and receive expert advice on hair shades that perfectly harmonise with your palette.

You’ll also unlock the full potential of MyHOCLookBook as we guide you through organizing your wardrobe, identifying styling gaps, and igniting inspiration to experiment with new pieces.

Advanced Colour sessions are available for women who have previously had their colours analysed. There is a strong focus on makeup as well as how to combine colours effortlessly. £250 per three-hour session. Best taken as a 1:1 service. Maximum two people per session. 

Wardrobe Edit

This appointment is designed to apply all the knowledge you gained in your colour and/or style analysis and appointment and apply it to your own wardrobe. Together, we'll filter through the pieces you don’t wear so you can donate or resell them, keeping your closet free from clutter so you can better mix and match pieces in your wardrobe to create more looks with fewer items.

This process liberates your closet from clutter, empowering you to effortlessly mix and match pieces to unlock endless styling possibilities with fewer items.

2.5 hours minimum starting from £199. 

Personal Shopping

My House of Colour personal shopping service will make finding new clothing, shoes, jewellery and accessories hassle-free. As your personal stylist, I will be offering you my time, via this service, as your very own personal shopper. You can personalise how I use this time so that it is completely tailored to your objectives and desires.

Whether you are looking for the perfect outfit for a special event, refreshing your wardrobe for the latest season, or just want expert guidance on how to continue looking your best, my personal shopping services are shaped around you and your goals.

There are a number of ways for you to personalise our House of Colour personal shopping service, for example:

  • We can shop together in person
  • I can conduct online personal shopping for you, buying items that I know work with your unique features, characteristics and personality
  • I can undertake online personal shopping for you, saving items I believe would illuminate you and you can browse and buy at your own pace later.

Having my colours done, ‘analysed’, by Kelly was one of my most magical experiences! 😊✨ The session was so gentle and insightful and I left feeling inspired and lifted (a feeling that’s especially powerful as I’m quite a timid person who often struggles to dress myself in things that brighten me). Something that is really special too is that I now have a fan of my colours and the support of Kelly moving forwards in finding my style! If you are thinking about getting your colours done, or employing the help of a stylist (Kelly), please do - Kelly is amazing and the session(s) will be so, so worth it!

I had my colour session with Kelly Caira earlier this year. It was an eye opening experience that changed my perspective on my styling with colours. What a difference it makes if we are wearing certain colours, how it emphasis and elevates our facial features. Kelly gave me my colour palette that I carry on every shopping trip. Thanks for my wonderful session Kelly. Highly recommended!

My friend and I spent a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon on Friday learning about our colours - which ones we should be wearing and which ones to avoid. Kelly is very professional and thorough, taking time to explain everything and answer our questions. Her studio is cool, calm and welcoming, especially on such a warm afternoon! The cold drinks and tasty treats were delicious thank you. I now feel inspired to sort out my wardrobe, go shopping and learn more about the make-up I should be using too. I highly recommend a colour consultation with Kelly.

I received the colours, style and makeup session as a gift, and had an amazing day with Kelly - she was kind, friendly, and clearly very knowledgeable. The colours analysis was really interesting, and left me feeling a lot more confident on how I could try to incorporate bolder colours into my wardrobe, seeing the difference it could make to the way my skin and eyes looked! With the style session, I felt I already had an idea of what I enjoyed wearing, but working through the different styles with Kelly was really eye-opening on identifying how my wardrobe fits into these. I liked that she took a more holistic approach with this, and was really attentive to some of the thoughts I had on my personal style and how these worked together. She helped suggest different ideas of things I could try to suit my body shape and style, which were things I would gravitate to, as well as those that might stretch me a bit but offer a nice change to my wardrobe. I left feeling excited and confident in approaching shopping with my new palette and ideas of style- thank you so much Kelly! Would definitely recommend either session to anyone!

I recently had the most wonderful shopping experience with Kelly.
Kelly has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to colours, brands, fabrics, and overall quality. What I admired most was Kelly's ability to introduce me to pieces I wouldn't typically consider – I've discovered a whole new set of possibilities and combinations that have elevated my wardrobe.
Kelly’s gentle and encouraging manner made the entire shopping experience not only enjoyable but empowering too. Kelly's warmth and enthusiasm made her an absolute joy to shop with. It's clear that she's not just good at what she does; she's exceptional.
I highly recommend Kelly – you'll walk away not only with fantastic finds but also with a newfound confidence in your style. Thank you, Kelly!!

I first had my colours ‘done’ 15 years ago, so this re-rate by Kelly was a good chance to see if the years, and going gray, had changed things! Still an Autumn but it was still really useful to be reminded of the better combinations for me. The make up is great - so useful to get a perfect match in daylight. And access to the colour fan and look book is great too for future shopping. Would totally recommend going to Kelly she makes the whole experience enjoyable & rewarding.

View Testimonial

I reached out to Kelly during a transformative phase in my personal and professional life. With the need to enhance my professional speaking skills and engage in more face-to-face networking opportunities, I was anxious about my fashion choices post-Covid. As I've grown older, my body has matured and evolved, leaving me uncertain about what truly complements me and how to project myself best as a confident, empowering businesswoman.

So, I seized the opportunity to spend a day with Kelly, sharing my wardrobe's inner workings.

Throughout the process, she maintained an approachable, empathetic, and encouraging demeanour. Together, we meticulously reviewed my existing clothing collection, and shortly after our session, Kelly presented me with invaluable suggestions for new additions and styles tailored to my personality and goals.

We also delved into colour analysis, granting me the confidence to discern which hues complemented my skin tone and which ones to embrace in my clothing choices. Kelly thoughtfully documented each step, providing visual evidence of the transformations we were achieving.  What fascinated me most was the scientific approach to styling, which I had never previously been aware of.  Kelly not only shared her magic, but she also helped me to understand the skills and tools I could use to develop my wardrobe, always knowing that she would be available to support me, offer advice and suggestions, and come on a shopping trip when I am preparing for a significant event.  With my book coming out later this year and my professional speaking events increasing I anticipate working with Kelly throughout the development of my business.

I wholeheartedly recommend Kelly's services to anyone seeking a confidence boost, whether for business branding, re-entering the dating scene, or simply rejuvenating their wardrobe.

Booking a session with Kelly allows you to discover which clothing enhances your presence, gain expert insights and suggestions, and boost your self-assurance.

I had a great session with Kelly and came away having learnt a lot!. She made the whole experience really enjoyable and practical, explaining not just which colours suited me, but how to actually use them when putting outfits together.

The timing couldn’t have been better as I had to pack the following day for a work trip and holiday. It genuinely helped me look at my wardrobe differently, and I ended up rediscovering clothes I’d completely forgotten about..

Kelly also took the time afterwards to put together lots of useful examples and ideas in my Lookbook, which has been really helpful for inspiration.

A brilliant experience and I’d definitely recommend Kelly to anyone wanting to better understand what colours work for them.
