I've had the pleasure of working with women just like you to transform their confidence and their personal and professional lives in Melbourne and
around the globe.
Working with Lucy was nothing short of transformational. And I continue to find all the lessons learned to be applicable to so many other areas aside from the obvious.
After a few consecutive whirlwind years—full-time postgraduate studies, returning to work, working from home, repetitive lockdowns—my sense of style and fashion identity were in desperate need of attention. Historically, when choosing attire, I resorted to what was easiest, readily accessible, wrinkle-resistant—the chore of filtering through my wardrobe was often too overwhelming with too many non-options cluttering. I am an organised person, though when it comes to planning outfits, I had been neglecting the importance and deprioritising simply as I found it to be too much a hassle at the end of the day. Pulling together outfits were ad hoc, more function over statement, and more stressful than enjoyable. There were far too many yoga pant and t-shirt days than there should have been, seeing as how I wasn’t practicing yoga at the time.
Working with Lucy was nothing short of transformational. And I continue to find all the lessons learned to be applicable to so many other areas aside from the obvious. For instance, I was especially intrigued with the colouring session. And was surprised to find my ideal colour palette (of which I was completely unaware of beforehand) had subtly come up in different areas of my interior design style organically as well. I had no idea why I gravitated toward certain colours more frequent than others, though once Lucy shared further on how it all works, it all made sense!
My other favourite session was the wardrobe clear out. It was life-changing, and that is not an exaggeration. Lucy went through all items, made recommendations and I never once felt shamed or pressured to do away with clothing no longer suiting my style/who I had become. It was exhilarating!
We discussed, at length, what our clothes and style say about us, and how to command more presence and stature through style choices.
I’m continuing to work with Lucy after having finished the VIP series. I am continuing to learn and become more comfortable in making choices myself, though still prefer to wean off slowly from Lucy’s guidance!
Lucy’s approach and program is an absolute must for women in the workplace and especially in corporate environments. After choosing to make the investment in myself, I realised just how dire and necessary it was, notably coming out of lockdown(s). This experience is one you’ll never forget or regret! Take the leap and enjoy!

Chief Commercial Officer
It's taken the stress and anxiety out of my day and I know what will make me look like a million bucks in front of whoever I have an audience with that day.
I had my half year performance review last year and my national manager advised that he wanted to put me forward for a promotion, but also commented that whilst he has full confidence in my abilities, he got the impression that I lacked that confidence in myself. He wanted to see me start putting myself out there more at the leadership level, so that when he did put my name forward, it'd be easier for him to sell that story for me.
It had been a long time since I'd invested in myself and taking the leap and signing up for your program definitely shifted my mindset that I am worthy of investing in myself. After completing the program, it's become quite obvious to me that it's really important to show up for myself every day. I think as a female working in the corporate world and a banking environment, you want to be noticed and promoted for your merits, you don't ever want to think that you're just making your way up the chain due to looks. So, I kind of downplayed that and just wanted to get by on my knowledge and know-how, which is important. But you taught me that people wil take a mental snapshot of you, and that really stuck with me. I really wanted to leave people with great snapshots of myself.
This program was new to me, but I was really pleased to find out that how I'm showing up now and how I'm presenting myself to others today is the me that has been there all along. You didn't turn me into something that I'm not. I'm not wearing things that I wouldn't be comfortable in, you took the time to give me the space and the permission and the time to get really introspective.
I'm definitely getting noticed. I have a renewed sense of confidence in how I look, and I know that I can walk into any boardroom or on to any virtual call and I belong there and I look like I belong there. And that confidence has really pushed me to take a few leaps and put my hand up up to lead some key initiatives within the bank, and the leadership team has noticed. I've been asked to present to management on some of those projects and I know that my name's circulating in that space, which is a great thing. My goal to build up my brand and establish a presence is definitely on track.

It was one of the most memorable and valuable experiences I have undertaken to invest in myself.
I never thought I would engage a stylist until I met Lucy. It was one of the most memorable and valuable experiences I have undertaken to invest in myself. Lucy is incredibly professional, authentic and warm. The entire process was a pleasure and I can’t recommend Lucy enough.

I keep getting compliments about the way I look and dress and owe the time we spent understanding my shape and style!
I am forever grateful for Lucy's professional styling services - I've gone from lacking confidence in what clothes and styles suit me to enjoying online shopping and creating outfits which show off my body shape and show off my personality.

Lucy really sees you and is able to craft and articulate your authentic self in a way no one has done before.
My confidence has increased so much, it's impossible to imagine a time before working with Lucy. I feel I've discovered myself in what I wear. There is now a connection with who I am and my clothing. My experience has been freeing and I'm slowly building a wardrobe that fully captures my personality and what I'm comfortable wearing.
Previously, I'd struggled to match my clothing, to have a cohesive wardrobe and being conscious of what I was wearing. Now, all of a sudden everything is starting to match and looks great together. I've transformed internally - I know more about what to pick, what captures who I am and what to wear for a particular situation to communicate the messages I want.
I'm more conscious and mindful than ever before. I've gained an awareness of how to feel my best and connect my personality to what I wear. Lucy matched everything to my personality, my authentic self, how I like to dress and what I enjoy wearing. She found all of the puzzle pieces I couldn't see and fit them together. It's truly a magical experience.
Lucy really sees you and is able to craft and articulate your authentic self in a way no one has done before.

SENIOR SERVICE DESIGNER
My experience has been life changing and I greatly valued your care and wisdom.
Before working with Lucy my style was hit and miss, a little confused and I didn’t feel confident. During the program, I had so much fun exploring my style type and colour palette. The wardrobe day was liberating – both to clear the clutter and learn that I had a number of great combinations already in my wardrobe – I was
re-inspired.
Most fun was the shopping day. I LOVE all of my pieces. For the first time I have come home with quality key pieces that fit properly, are timeless and I can wear with multiple combinations.
My confidence and attitude has evolved since finishing the program and it’s not overwhelming any more to dress in a way I feel great for work and play. Lucy is passionate about making you the best version of yourself in a safe and fun environment. I feel confident and empowered! It’s such a great gift you can give to yourself – loved the whole experience and am truly grateful.

Lucy taught me how to present myself in new ways that align with my vision for my business and for my own personal look.

MARKETER & BUSINESS OWNER
As a little girl, we get so many messages about what suits us - from our mums, sisters, aunties- and I learned that what they say isn’t always right! Lucy showed me how to choose prints, colours, cuts and shapes that actually work for me.
Previously, I thought a stylist would recommend only top-end, super expensive brands that seemed unattainable. That just wasn’t the case at all. Lucy opened my eyes by suggesting new brands that I’d never considered before, and also including amazing pieces from brands I’ve loved and worn for years.
Together, we defined the look and feel that I want to show the world as a successful entrepreneur. This has been such an enjoyable, insightful experience and I highly recommend it to anyone who’s struggling to work out what to wear to work.
Knowing what brands to buy, how to put an outfit together and wear it with confidence has really changed my life.
Before working with Lucy I was wasting money on clothes that didn’t fit well or highlight my best features. I didn’t feel my best and this came out in a lack of confidence in both my corporate and personal life.
Defining my personality has meant that I can articulate my style and therefore be targeted in the brands I buy. This combined with knowing what suits my body shape and colours has helped me buy the right things and not waste money.
I now receive so many compliments on my styling and wardrobe so I walk a little taller and can face into my leadership role with my head held high. Working with Lucy helped define a brand of style for me and now that’s the basis I use to dress every day.
I now have a wardrobe that I wear (and enjoy wearing!) everything in it. You won’t regret the investment in yourself and it will save you money in the long run!

I now have a clear direction for what looks best on me.
After finishing up a corporate career, I simply had no clue when it came to my wardrobe. Enter Lucy! Lucy realigned my wardrobe to my lifestyle and showed me what to wear and how to wear it. She demystified my figure shape and my personal colourings. She took pieces from my existing wardrobe and reworked them back with new items that she recommended. I now have a clear direction for what looks best on me, what my wardrobe truly contains, and what I will look for in future clothing purchasing going forward. Sincerely thank you Lucy – you are terrific!

Consider it an investment in your career that every successful professional needs - and deserves!
After fifteen years in a corporate environment, I realised my wardrobe style needed to evolve and I was tired of opening my wardrobe each morning feeling uninspired and no longer clear on what actually suited me.
Enter Superstylist Lucy who has helped me to get completely refreshed and sorted. She has a knack for cutting through and figuring out what’s required to make you look and feel fabulous (and let’s face it, we all need a secret weapon!). The end result has been liberating and empowering! I now have clarity on what really works for me and I’m continuing to work with Lucy on injecting new pieces into my wardrobe and experimenting with fresh colours and pieces. I regularly have people comment “wow, that colour looks amazing on you!”
It has been such a positive experience. A huge thank you to Lucy for making it such a positive experience, she is a wonderful and skilled professional stylist.

Lucy was a dream! Like a little shining fairy godmother sent to calm me and guide me through the process!
I was feeling great about life and enjoying my career more than ever however I felt my drab wardrobe didn't match my positive state of mind! I was desperate to feel good in my appearance. The whole process was so enlightening. There's a real science behind selecting the right clothing and I loved the journey of educating myself as much as I enjoyed the shopping! It has given me a real lift and feeling of much more self pride and confidence. It is well worth the investment. I believe everyone who is confused in styling can definitely benefit from this whole experience.

I now have a more confident approach to life and style with a wardrobe to match.
I needed a life and style refresh! I was stuck in style wilderness with a wardrobe full of black, grey and navy but always nothing to wear.
Lucy was so helpful and amazing at listening to me, understanding where I was at, where I wanted to be, my personality and articulating the challenge. Lucy’s process is enjoyable and went beyond what I wore. I learned so much which I can now apply to all facets of life and wardrobe.
If you want someone to go on a journey with you, to articulate where you are and where you want to go and help you understand and build your own, unique image - Lucy is your person!

I feel more confident, more sure about what I wear and what I buy and am less overwhelmed by my wardrobe and shopping.
Lucy is warm, engaging, knowledgeable and very easy to work with. She makes you feel very comfortable in the process and paces your needs and experience very well. Her gentle, warm and fun approach makes it very easy to be open to learning to gain more confidence in what you wear and what really suits you and why.
Before meeting with Lucy I knew I had some basic skills in styling myself but I lacked completion of outfits, would buy things I wasn’t sure about and would wonder why even though I liked a certain look it didn’t flatter me. Through Lucy’s process of colours that complement me, body shape identification, wardrobe decluttering and shopping to fill in the gaps, I feel more confident, more sure about what I wear and what I buy and, am less overwhelmed by my wardrobe and shopping.
It has been truly beneficial for me to work with Lucy and I would highly recommend her.

LEADERSHIP COACH
Lucy has an incredible eye for style and an understanding of her client.
Before style and colour coaching with Lucy, I was unclear about the colours and styles that suited me best. I now have a much greater understanding of what works best for me, and a clearer sense of my own style and how to create that.
This knowledge has been a time and cost saving, as I now go shopping and put together outfits with more focus, and don’t waste time considering options that are less flattering to my shape or colouring.
My advice for you if you are thinking of working with Lucy is to go for it. You will learn a lot that will have a positive and inspiring impact, both on a practical and emotional level.
