I used the woman who did my colours.

She charged per hour, we did 2 hours. Initially I was a little disappointed because she didn't come up with anything earthshaking, but actually when I think about it, in those 2 hours I got lots of different work outfits that I actually wear, whereas usually I go shopping and can take 2 hours to buy a top that I end up not liking.

I did, for my 40th birthday. She is an independant stylist, tends to work at either Bluewater or Westfield. I spent 5 glorious hours with her, BEST money I've ever spent. Would love to do it again!

I used one once. Instore. It didn't end well. We argued a lot. She was strident and tended towards the "Eastern European Hooker on a Motorway" look. Grin

I used the one at Selfridges. Never again. The man wouldn't listen to what I wanted and spent the whole time putting me in voluminous frocks when I prefer something fitted as I have a defined waist, big boobs and big hips. When I said to him I'd prefer something fitted he said he was trying to hide my hips as they were a "figure flaw". Bastard.
