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

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

Buying a Christmas present for a man is hard. Ask him what he wants and you'll hear "nothing, honestly", and the usual answers (another jumper, another bottle of aftershave) are forgotten by February. Here is a gift that isn't: a personal shopping experience with a Personal Shopper & Stylist, who helps him find clothes and colours that suit him and shows him how to wear them.

How to Shop Bicester Village with a Personal Stylist
Bicester Village can be a brilliant day out, or a very expensive one. I've seen both. The difference is almost never the budget. It's whether you arrive knowing what you need, what suits you and when to walk away.
