My HOC Story:

I was first introduced to HOC colour and style analysis myself 30 years ago as a client. I was working in TV and realised there were things I needed to learn. I then immediately realised I had found the last part of my marketing jigsaw, how to market people! I became a consultant with House of Colour later that year back in 93 buying my franchise and training. This has been one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I have great personal & corporate clients and I love to see the WOW factor transformations & hear the success stories, business and personal, when clients become all they are and can be, when they know how!

I am passionate about the life-changing benefits it brought me and love to create the same for my great clients.

This is why I now specialise in People, Brand and Media Image.

Let the House of Colour experience change your wardrobe and your life as it did for mine:

Services

As a image consultant with 30 years of experience, I offer a complete range of services and can personalise a session to suit your individual preferences

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.

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!

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.

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.

Client

I just wanted to say thank you. I've been slowly changing all my new purchases to align to the colours you showed me and this Christmas it was time to invest in my first lipstick. I always felt a bit of a fool wearing lipstick so steered away from it but I gave my boyfriend the colour book and let him loose. I've never had so many compliments!

We were absolutely delighted to have Linda Whetherly join us as our Guest speaker yesterday. There is a wealth of knowledge, experience and psychology behind the techniques and information that Linda shares. There was a lot of invaluable information that could make a massive difference. I'm sure everyone who attended will agree that this was a fascinating subject, and what we learned can be used in our business immediately. This was borne out in the number of questions and the discussion that went on right through lunch and even continued after the meeting ended.

Next time we meet you won’t recognise me … Thought the psychology of image was extremely interesting and very powerful. Great to meet you and hope we get the chance to work together again soon.

PS Every HR Department I work with needs this!

Linda, I had meant to get round to this a week ago. But on top of the official feedback (which I hope that you got back) that your session was extremely well received by all delegates and rated very positively in the feedback ...  I wanted to express my gratitude for your impact on me personally. Those few hours have had a bigger impact on me than any other single event in my life for some years. Somehow by giving a name to the contradictory sides of myself and therefore, in a sense, resolving the conflict, it was like flicking a switch in me ... and has given me the confidence to 'wear my own clothes' as it were. But far more importantly it has given me a massive boost in self-belief to do concrete things to fulfil my vision for myself. Anyway, look forward to meeting you again at the March course and again a really big thank you.

Dear Linda, I wanted to thank you for an excellent day. I took away a lot more than I expected and am so pleased to have such clearly defined areas to work on and (I hope!) now the tools to accomplish my goals with. It was very satisfying to feel such a marked change in my confidence and presence. Hope to work with you again in the future.

I had such a great time with you and have begun my wardrobe cull, and it's going really well. They were some dresses I was holding on to for a few years that I've not worn as they didn't look right and they are all the colours I shouldn't be wearing, so it's the perfect way to get rid of them.

Now living in Dorset but will see you when up in your area. For me, you’re the best and I wouldn’t go anywhere else! I have always (many visits) found you to be very professional and inspiring. You’re a great role model and really walk the talk – a dramatic classic right? Your advice has changed my life! Saved thousands of pounds over the years and helped me to make the most of my appearance. My 1st visit was about 27 years ago, and here I am, still using your eyeshadows!
