Frequently Asked Questions

Who are your services for?
Everyone! Our service is for everyone, regardless of age, size, occupation or ethnicity, including:

• University students entering the work force
• Men and women wanting to dress more professional
• Career women entering motherhood
• Mums returning to the workforce
• Baby boomers and retirees looking for a style change
• The self-employed wanting a unique look that works for them
• Corporates wishing to provide grooming training to their staff
• Those who have experienced weight gain or weight loss
• Anyone who hates shopping or struggles putting an outfit together or accessorizing
• Or you’re simply stuck in a style rut, and don’t know what suits you or what you like.

Do you have a certain style that you get all your clients to follow?

No, every client is unique, and the recommendations we make are tailor-made for you and you alone.

I’ve already had my colours done. Do I need to get them done again?

No.  if you’ve had your colours done through another company, and providing that you’re happy and comfortable with the season they have put you in, there is no reason to have this service again.
Confidence and Style can offer you other services so you can carry on with your style journey.

 

Where do you take clients personal shopping?
Together we’ll work out the best shops to shop at depending on your style and budget. We shop in the stores that are going to get you the best result for your money.

Do you need to have a lot of money to go on a shopping trip?

No. When we meet with you & make your shopping list it’s you who sets the budget for your shopping trip. We then work within that budget – which means we go to the stores that fit; be that high-end designer boutiques, cheapie chain stores or a mix of both – we’ve even shopped at second-hand stores and Dressmart. Generally, to get a great result we encourage you to set the budget as high as you can, because that way you are getting the best value out of working with a stylist. Of course, “as high as you can” is different for everyone; we’ve worked within really small, tight budgets and with ‘no limit’ budgets and the result is always magic.

I’m losing weight – shall I wait until I reach my goal before coming to see you?

No! Whatever weight you are you want to look fabulous. We have lots of services that make absolutely no difference whether you are plus size or petite – like a Colour Analysis or Make-up Lesson. Body Shape Analysis is about your proportions not your size. Some things will never change – the length of your torso, length of your leg, your neck length etc. Even when losing significant amounts of weight most people will find their basic frame shape stays the same – so it’s worth knowing how to dress the body you have as you work toward the body you want.

.

Are you going to throw everything out of my wardrobe?

No. Most people have some real gems tucked away in the wardrobe that they can use as building blocks to create the looks they want. We work with you to establish what is working for you, and make a plan for you to build on. We try and create a wardrobe that fits you & your lifestyle – so yes, we usually do get rid of the pieces that just don't work for you.
