“My job is to help you curate a wardrobe full of pieces that you love, and that love you back.”

About me

I’m Laura, and I take the stress out of getting dressed.

As a mom of three boys, I understand how quickly life changes, and how easy it is for your own style to end up at the bottom of the priority list. Our bodies, lifestyles, and priorities evolve, and suddenly we find ourselves with a closet full of clothes that no longer feel like us.

As a wardrobe consultant and colour analysis expert, I believe great style isn’t about chasing trends or owning more clothes. It’s about understanding what works for you. I help women discover the colours, shapes, and styles that flatter them most, creating wardrobes that feel effortless, intentional, and uniquely theirs.

My clients include doctors, teachers, executives, entrepreneurs, retirees, busy moms, and women simply looking to reconnect with themselves through their wardrobe.

The most rewarding part of my work isn’t hearing that a client’s closet has changed, it’s hearing that they feel more like themselves. Because that’s what great style should do.

Common questions

Wondering if this is for you?

Do you only work with people who are a size 2?

Absolutely not! I work with real women of all shapes, sizes, ages, and stages of life, from petite to plus size and everything in between. There is no such thing as a perfect body. The secret isn’t changing your body, it’s understanding how to dress your body. Once you understand what works for you, getting dressed becomes so much easier, and so much more enjoyable.

Do I need a big budget?

Not at all. One of the biggest misconceptions about working with an image consultant is that it means buying an entirely new wardrobe. In reality, we often begin by making the most of what you already own. When shopping is part of the process, I work within your budget, and many clients actually find they save money because they’re no longer buying clothes they don’t wear.

Why work with an image consultant?

Style isn’t about following trends, it’s about understanding what works for you.

When you know which colours complement your natural features, which silhouettes flatter your body, and which styles reflect your personality, getting dressed becomes effortless. Instead of standing in front of a full closet wondering what to wear, you’ll have a wardrobe filled with pieces that work together and make you feel confident every time you put them on.

My goal isn’t simply to help you shop or create beautiful outfits, it’s to give you the knowledge and confidence to make better style decisions for years to come. You’ll learn how to recognize what suits you, avoid costly shopping mistakes, and build a wardrobe with intention rather than impulse.

With years of retail experience, a deep understanding of personal style, and the belief that what we wear communicates who we are before we ever speak, I help women create wardrobes that feel authentic, functional, and uniquely their own.

The “why” behind every recommendation

“Think of it as learning the ‘why’ behind every style recommendation. Once you understand what works for you and why, you’ll have the confidence to build a wardrobe that continues to evolve with you.”

The difference

How is an image consultant different from a personal shopper?

A personal shopper helps you buy clothes. An image consultant teaches you why certain colours, silhouettes and styles work for you.

My goal isn’t simply to create great outfits for today, it’s to give you the knowledge and confidence to make great style decisions for years to come. By understanding your colouring, body shape, lifestyle and signature style, you’ll learn how to shop smarter, build a more intentional wardrobe and feel confident every time you get dressed.

Because clothing is made in standard sizes, but people aren’t. Once you understand what works for your body, colouring, lifestyle, and personality, you’ll never look at shopping the same way again.

Your wardrobe should make your life easier, not leave you feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, or unsure of what to wear. Stop settling for “fine,” “okay,” or simply “on sale.”

And here’s the truth: your body is not the problem. Often, it’s simply that your clothes were never chosen with you in mind.

Not sure which service is right for you? That’s what I’m here for. Tell me a little about your wardrobe, your goals, and what’s been frustrating you. Together, we’ll determine the best place to start.
