Colour Analysis | Personal Style | Makeup | Look and feel your authentic self | Science and psychology-based approach
Find your colours, unlock your style, feel refreshed and boost your confidence
Everyone wants to look great and feel confident, right? Who doesn't?! To do that, you need to know what suits you best for every occasion, for the various roles you have in your life and the different environments you are in. The problem is, it's difficult to know which voices to trust, and that can leave you feeling confused..maybe even insecure. Working out where to start can be really frustrating. Enter House of Colour.
At House of Colour we dedicate ourselves to blending colour science and fashion psychology, empowering you to embrace styling with ease. I believe achieving a wardrobe that boosts your confidence should be straightforward, and fun! It's my commitment to turn confusion to clarity, and insecurity to self-assuredness.
Why Colour Analysis Changes Everything
Imagine opening your wardrobe and loving everything inside — because every colour makes you look fresh, bright, and confident.
That’s what colour analysis does.
Together, we’ll discover the shades that harmonise best with your natural skin tone — the ones that flatter your skin, your eyes, your hair, and most importantly, feel like you.
No more standing at makeup counters feeling overwhelmed. No more buying clothes that sit unworn because they just don’t feel quite right. You’ll know exactly what suits you...and why!
Colour analysis isn’t about changing who you are — it’s about making sure the outside reflects the beauty that’s already there. It makes getting dressed easier, shopping simpler, and at the very least it makes you feel amazing every day.
When you wear the colours that truly belong to you, you don’t just look good — you feel like your best self. And that’s where the real magic happens.
Why Knowing Your Style Changes Everything
Style analysis is all about helping you discover the cuts, shapes, fabrics, and outfit combinations that truly bring out the best in you.
It's not about trends or copying someone else's look — it's about understanding your natural lines, your personality, and making you feel empowered.
When you know your style profile, shopping becomes easier, getting dressed becomes faster, and you stop second-guessing yourself in the mirror. You’ll understand why certain outfits feel like "home" and others just don't — and you’ll have a clear, confident way to express who you are through what you wear.
The goal isn’t to change you. It's to take the person on the inside and help you express that in the most authentic way on the outside, reflecting the incredible person you already are.
When you know your style, you don’t just look good — you feel like yourself. And great things come from that!

A BIT ABOUT ME...
I have been living in Horsham since 2018 and love it! I am married to Luke and have three children - two girls and a boy. Another string to my bow is music and I sing and play piano. I enjoy reading, writing, journalling, staying healthy, friends and gin! I am heavily involved with a local church (Lifespring Church Horsham) regularly leading worship and preaching and I am also Chair of Trustees. I had my own colours done when my girls were little and it was a gamechanger for me on many levels. Wind on a few years and I decided to use this passion for as the fuel for my business. I was previously a family lawyer for 17 years so total tangent but I love it and haven't looked back!

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.
As a client you'll also receive exclusive access to the House of Colour portal “MyHOCLookBook”, which contains inspiration boards and links for clothing items in your colours, plus organised images of clothing from your own wardrobe should you wish to utilise this feature.
Children's Colour Analysis also available - please ask for more details.

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!
As a client you'll also receive exclusive access to the House of Colour portal “MyHOCLookBook”, which contains inspiration boards and links for clothing items in your style, plus organised images of clothing from your own wardrobe should you wish to utilise this feature.
Refreshments and lunch included.

Testimonials
Working with incredible clients is the best part of what I do. Here’s a little glimpse into their experiences — honest words from people who trusted the process and walked away feeling empowered, confident, and more connected to their true selves.
I first discovered The House of Colour through Michaela. I remember going to her beautiful studio to take photographs of her work and over the course of those very first 15 minutes, I was 100% won over! I found the whole concept making so much sense and in my heart, I started dreaming about getting a colour analysis done for myself. I started wondering if I had worn all the wrong colours most of my life! I had worn so much black - my husband James calls me a ninja! I soon had my colour analysis done and it was the most incredible experience! One that connected the dots! ALL my life I had worn Winter colours!!! No wonder I looked so drained when I looked in the mirror .. I am now in the process of adjusting my entire wardrobe and embracing those gorgeous autumn muted tones - so many of those beautiful colours that I had stayed away from thinking they wouldn’t suit my skin tone! It truly was a liberating experience from removing your makeup to seeing the analysis happen and embracing the vulnerable you in that safe space. I cannot recommend Michaela enough. She’s so gentle, kind, beautiful, caring, creative and so good at what she does! Everyone should gift themselves this gift!
FW, Horsham
I had such a brilliant time with Michaela doing my colour analysis. Michaela was really helpful and talked through the process so that I understood how it worked and what she was looking for. It was a really interesting process to determine my colour season. Once we determined my colour season it was fascinating seeing some of my favourite colours but also a few which really surprised me. It was great to try the House of Colour make-up range too and to try some lipsticks which I never would have had the courage to try before. It’s definitely given me a new sense of adventure and a confidence to try something new, now that I know what colours compliment me and work well together within my colour season. Michaela gave me lots of really helpful tools and tips and I had such a fun time with her.
PP, Horsham
I visited Michaela for a colour analysis recently and had a great session. She spent time explaining the theory, then used the drapes to find out if I was warm or cool. She spent time finding my perfect makeup and then my wow colours. The studio was light and airy, she provided drinks and biscuits and made me feel really welcome. Just a lovely person! I went away with lots of information, my colour swatches and personalised ratings. I would recommend the experience to anyone. Thanks Michaela!
LD, Lancing
Michaela was full of knowledge, she was very good at explaining the process and a great host. It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon and I left with a new found knowledge of what colours work best for me.
TW, Horsham
Thank you for an amazing session! It was really fun and inspiring. And relaxing! What a treat!
NP, Horsham
Michaela was great. I really enjoyed the session and learnt a lot. Michaela was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and professional. She even provided snacks to meet my dietary requirements. I would not hesitate to contact her in the future for further advice.
RE, Horsham
I had a wonderful experience with Michaela! She was very welcoming and friendly, it felt like an open environment where you could ask many questions and asked your opinions as well as informing you of hers. Would definitely recommend!
JF, Crawley
Thank you so much for the colour analysis session last week which was so helpful and, to be honest, more useful than I dared hope!
CB, Crawley
Had a thoroughly enjoyable morning with Michaela learning the basics of colour theory, finding what works for me and learning why that one blue dress has been lurking in my wardrobe, unworn, for the best part of a decade, as well as debating the big issues of the day (no, sadly authority colours don’t seem work on kids; we’ll agree to disagree on yellow). Not only is Michaela super knowledgable, but brilliant company too. Would recommend.
DV, Haywards Heath
Michaela very quickly made me feel totally at home and comfortable, which is important if somebody you have only just met is going to be in your personal space for several hours. She is personable, very easy to chat with and talks you through the process as she is trying the different colours. Michaela isn't afraid to say if she is getting mixed messages with the colours and needs to try a slightly different approach. The time went very quickly, which is always a good sign, and I came away with lots of really useful information about which specific colours and jewellery colour I should wear if I am trying to look my best. A really pleasant and useful session.
EW, Haywards Heath
I had such a good day with Michaela reviewing my colour and style which I first had done many years ago. It was a lot to do in one day but as a refresh doing both together worked well. Michaela is very knowledgeable and has a lovely, calm manner which enables a client to trust the process as it's not always easy looking at yourself in a mirror! I would wholeheartedly recommend a visit to Michaela to anyone interested in exploring this life enhancing experience.
LC, Chichester
I had such a wonderful time at my colour analysis session. I arrived to find a beautiful studio with snacks & an offer of a drink as soon as I arrived. Michaela took the time to find out more about me and what I hoped to discover. It was then explained exactly how the session would work. I went with an idea of what season I was and I was totally wrong. Michaela explained and showed me why Summer was my season and I could really see it. It was eye opening and fascinating. We then spent some time looking at and trying on make up to suit my season - the lipsticks were a particular highlight as I never wear lipstick and the difference the right shade makes is unreal. The colour fan is so helpful when choosing new clothes & I’ve really enjoyed wearing colours I would never usually choose. Michaela’s love for what she does shone through and I left feeling amazing. Thank you so much, it was a wonderful few hours xxx
NP, Horsham
Absolutely amazing experience. Michaela is very talented in discovering what colours suit you best and takes you through a journey of self that is really inspiring.
LL, Horsham
We had a session for a birthday party and had an amazing day. The 3 of us meant that Michaela had her hands full - with 3 different seasons 😊. Thank you for yor patience and advice. It's changed our perspective on what to wear and what colours we would like to surround ourselves with.
SL, Horsham
I was absolutely delighted with the sensitivity, professionalism and enthusiasm Michaela showed in helping draw out how I can use a tweaked range of my Spring colours to make the best of me as I am now. There was no sales pressure either, just an honest explanation of the costs of her services and the Makeup options. I left the session feeling it had been time very well spent indeed and far more confident in making the best of my refreshed colour knowledge for this new season of life I am in. I hope to return to discuss a style refresh with her in the months ahead to help me make a 'good change' in my wardrobe as I adapt my choices in the future to better suit a very busy retired life rather than a very busy professional one.
SW, Horsham
I had a great experience with Michaela in her studio. I was made to feel very welcome and Michaela took the time to explain in detail what colour analysis was all about. She was very patient and very knowledgeable. I learnt a lot and enjoyed some me time. I highly recommend a session with House of Colour and let colour give you a lift!
SS, Steyning
Thanks for the confidence to wear such a bold colour, it's starting to filter into my wardrobe more and I'm loving it!
HG, Horsham
My 2 daughters and I spent a lovely afternoon with Michaela. We felt welcomed, comfortable and at ease. The whole experience is both enlightening and enjoyable. Since our sessions, I have had the occasion of testing new outfits while shopping and I have gone for colours I would have never bought before.
VF, Horsham
I'm so glad that Michaela walked me through the process. I am feeling so confident in myself and she really answered my questions fully. I have also recommended a couple of friends see her - they loved my photos and what I shared and I feel confident in trusting my friends and loved ones in Michaela's capable hands.
CH, Brighton
The session was really interesting, fun and informative. I loved finding out the history and how it started. Michaela was so knowledgeable about all the colours and matching them, and also making sure I could see the differences. I feel like it really goes into detail with your makeup and subseason.
LG, Horsham
I had such a great colour analysis. I came out on a high and very inspired!
NW, Hove
I spent a great day with Michaela & our session took in colour, makeup & style. Michaela was so enthusiastic & supportive right from the start. She explained clearly the concept of HoC & which colours, look & style were appropriate for me. Our day together has given me a solid foundation on how to rebuild my wardrobe after feeling stuck in a rut for so long.
CL, Hove
My session was definitely inspiring throwing up some colour surprises. I am looking forward to using my colour swatch to assess my current wardrobe and add in some new Spring/Golden Spring pieces.
LL, Angmering
I had a wonderful 2 hours with Michaela reviewing my colours and makeup, originally done over 30 years ago. She is professional, kind and enthusiastic and spent a lot of time ensuring that the colours were exactly right for me.
EI, Horsham
My colour analysis session was so much fun. Michaela is warm and welcoming, and is extremely knowledgeable and talented. It was worth every penny. I left on a complete high, and with focus and excitement to create my perfect wardrobe. This has been a huge confidence boost, I'm so glad I invested in myself. Thank you Michaela
LG, Horsham
Got given a Colour Session as a Christmas present and what a fantastic gift it was. I didn’t know much about how colours can change your entire appearance (and how you feel) but Michaela transformed how I look at my wardrobe in just a few hours!
She shared so much interesting wisdom about colours, our attractions to them and how we all feel about them, before showing me my colours. Wow. What a difference it made!
Her enthusiasm and passion was clear and she made me feel very at home. I’d say what she does is akin to magic - bringing your features to life in a way that I did not realise clothes could do.
I’d highly recommend Michaela to anyone looking to find the spark of magic in their wardrobe and style!
Thank you 🙏
NK, Horsham
Michaela was fantastic - She combines a wonderful mix of colour theory with hand on assessment to help you understand what your best colours are and why. It was a wonderful experience to do with my mum & sister - we had such a blast, Michaela made us feel at home instantly and we left feeling so inspired to be able to bring out our best sides moving forward. Would highly recommend!
FM, Switzerland
I have been wanting to do a colour analysis consultation for years and Michaela exceeded every expectation. My wife gifted me a session and I am so grateful that Michaela walked me through my colours. She was kind, empathetic, professional and showed a detailed level of expertise. She challenged me when I thought I was a certain season and showed me why - never failing to answer my questions. I cannot recommend Michaela more.
LN, Brighton
I just wanted to thank you for giving ______ and _______ such an enjoyable time when they came along for their colour session with you. They both came home full of ideas and said how much they had enjoyed their time with you.
Thanks again for your help when I was looking to arrange this as a gift for them, and for hosting an event they clearly both thoroughly enjoyed.
JA, Epsom
Michaela was fantastic, she took the time to listen to what I needed from the session and gave me that and more! She explained everything so clearly and her genuine excitement for helping me discover my colours really helped inspire me. She went above and beyond and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.
EB, Horsham
My colour analysis session was truly inspirational from start to finish. Starting from an in-depth explanation of the colour wheel and ending with the discovery of my ‘wow’ colours, Michaela has given me a newfound confidence in myself and my wardrobe that I can take with me into my future!
