This last email for the year seems to always be my favourite to write and send. Even after 13 whole years of what once felt like blogging, now a monthly style update, I love reflecting on where it all started and everything our small but big-hearted styling business has achieved over the year.
Running a styling business, solo is hard! I share many of the same challenges that many of you do. Feeling like we don’t have enough hours in our day, not stopping to celebrate the small wins when we should and being overwhelmed with that work-life balance!
Flying solo also means I continue to focus on your PERSONAL success, without distractions.
I want to say thank you! Thank you for being here. While it’s natural for some to come and go, many of you have been here from the beginning. It brings me such joy to know many of you use my Style Culture Styling newsletters, the shoppable mood boards and what I post to inspire and build your own personal style and brand.
And for sharing your style goals and ideas with me, your feedback is always heard!
I’m so grateful that we have such a strong community that helps to keep me focused, humble and energised throughout the year. And always have our styling clients and subscribers like you, top of our minds when making decisions.
2024 is set to bring an exciting new chapter for Style Culture Styling and I can’t wait to share it with you all!
2023 Recap…
The Teen Effect!
Reflecting on 2023, it was a privilege to have styled more teenagers than the previous year, which brought the total number nearing the thousand since 2010. It’s amazing to think that my passion for personal style has allowed me to become a trusted voice for parents who want to encourage their teens to embrace body positivity.
Mid Year Pause ♥
One Of My Highlights Included Travelling to Europe Again!
A personal highlights in 2023 was spending a month traveling with my family in Europe. We had a wonderful time revisiting Greece and exploring new destinations in Spain, including the beautiful city of Barcelona. And although I had to take some time off later in the year to recover from an illness and a fractured rib, the memories of our mid-year summer adventures will stay with us forever.
Look Good, Feel Better!
Men’s Styling Package Proves Popular in 2023
Over the last quarter, I was delighted to witness an impressive number of men booking in for my Ultimate Styling & Shopping Make-Over package. This package takes men’s style to the next level by providing wardrobe updates and hair style advice from an industry specialist hairstylist. It’s great to see more men taking an interest in their personal style!
Other 2023 Highlights
Included the Push to Re-Wear What You Have Before You Shop for More!
Over a hundred women enjoyed New Outfits this year styled from their very own wardrobe. Be it a return client or someone new cashing in on a gifted voucher, together we created fresh new looks using clothes from their existing wardrobe. Not only did this save my clients significant amounts of money by avoiding unnecessary shopping, but it also contributed to our planet’s well-being by limiting the amount of additional waste in landfills.
That’s a serious win for me as a fashion stylist that deserves acknowledgement. Let’s continue this positive impact in 2024!
An Exciting 2024!
2024 Is About To Get A Whole Lot More Stylish!
An updated Style Culture Website is hitting the scene in January, bringing with it a much-requested service “Stylist in Your Pocket”. Perfect for those who need their fashion fix and advice on the go. Stay tuned for more details!
Furthermore, I will continue to play an essential role as your stylist, offering personalised one-on-one styling consultations to help you look and feel your best.
