Maria was fantastic, she took the time to understand what I was looking for. She challenged me in a constructive way, clearly knows her stuff. She made the whole process very easy and I'm delighted with my new wardrobe

Hi, I'm Maria
“Personal styling is more than just clothes. It’s a journey, and sometimes an emotional one.”
I’m Maria Pastor, a Personal Shopper and Stylist with the luck to say this is my dream job.
For me, styling is about much more than clothes. It’s about helping you feel understood, confident and comfortable in what you wear, whatever stage of life you’re in.
I work with women and men across a range of styles and budgets, helping you make better choices, shop with purpose and feel more confident getting dressed every day.

I booked a personal shopping package with Maria as I was preparing to return to work postpartum and felt completely unsure about what suited my body or what my style even was anymore. From the start, Maria was incredibly thoughtful and thorough. Our initial call helped her really understand what I was looking for, and I felt listened to straight away. We then spent a half day shopping in London, and she found some beautiful pieces that work perfectly for everyday wear but can also be dressed up when needed. What I appreciated most was that she encouraged me to try things I would never have picked for myself and they ended up being some of my favourite items. I’m so happy with what I’ve come away with and feel much more confident in my style. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Maria and will absolutely return when I need a refresh. Thank you, Maria!

Thank you Maria for a lovely experience, and your excellent advice on all things menswear. I had a lovely experience. Maria is very knowledgeable and patient. I was taken to a number of shops both high street and some towards the higher end and at no point was there any pressure to buy anything. I was given tips on how to wear and colouring advice that perfectly suits me. I would have no hesitation to thoroughly recommend her.

Maria helped me find 2 dresses, 1 skirt, 1 cardigan, 4 T shirts and 1 jacket in the space of 3 hours! She is so easy to talk to and she understood my worries about my body shape. Not only that, she also showed me how to style my clothes so that I would look even better! She doesn't push her views onto you but simply wants you to be happy with your choice. I felt free to say, "I don't like it" even when Maria thought a piece of clothing suited me. It is rare to find all this in one personal shopper. I highly recommend her. Tammy xx

Questions, answered

- £185 for up to 3 hours of shopping, including a telephone consultation, a video call and shop research. With an Outfit Planner it’s £275 (7 outfits) or £355 (14 outfits). A wardrobe edit at your home is from £185.

Garden Party Outfits: What to Wear This Summer
You've been invited to a garden party this summer, and suddenly your wardrobe feels completely useless. Everything is either too smart, too casual, or that dress you love but have never actually worn anywhere. Sound familiar?Here's the thing: a garden party is one of those occasions that sounds simple but asks a lot. You need to look lovely, stay comfortable on grass for three or four hours, and somehow account for the fact that British weather will do exactly what it wants regardless of what th

How to Do a Wardrobe Edit: The Method I Use With Every Client
The first thing I notice when I walk into a client's wardrobe is the smell of fabric. Cotton mostly, sometimes wool, occasionally the faint chemical sweetness of something that's been in a dry-cleaning bag for two years and never come out.Then I start looking. And what I see is almost never what she sees.She sees a problem. I see a story. The jeans at the front that she pulls on every Monday. The dress with the tag still on, four rails back. The cardigan she wore in her old job in a city she doe

5 Style Mistakes I See All the Time (And the Easy Fixes)
Before we go anywhere, I want to say one thing: this is not a finger-wagging post. I am not here to make you feel silly about what's hanging in your wardrobe. The common fashion mistakes women make are not character flaws — they are completely reasonable patterns that come from busy lives, well-meaning advice, dressing rooms with terrible lighting, and a clothing industry that doesn't make any of this easy.I've made every single one of these myself. I see them every week with clients who walk in
