About Me
An Industry expert, passionate about styling real women.
Working across the fashion industry for over 20 years, I’d class myself as an expert in understanding how to dress women of all shapes, sizes and ages. I have designed, bought & styled clothes for women from their 20’s to their 70’s; styling on fashion shoots, designing & buying for high street retailers.
I personally understand how clothes can have enormous power over how we feel, how we carry ourselves & in particular their impact on our mental health & self worth.
Everyone can fall into a “style-rut”
I am a mum of two, who although working in the fashion industry, fell into a “mum rut” for over a year - whilst sitting on the floor of baby groups playing with my daughter. I want to help anyone who may be stuck in their own rut: whether it’s the “mum rut”, a change in career, a change in body shape, weight or just totally lost your style confidence. Anyone who feels they have lost their identity or their self confidence, you’re not alone!
So why has “The Charlotte Edit” evolved?
3 reasons: My M&S Insider journey, my mental health & doing “my bit”, in the only way I know how, to give my children a planet for their future! It’s been a dream of mine to make women everywhere feel good about themselves, as they 100% deserve to feel. It’s this love of styling that “earned” me the chance to represent M&S as a Stylist on Instagram. Whilst representing M&S I had thousands of chats with followers in particular about 2 subjects:
“How do you style ....?” or “How do you wear X with Y?”
“You make the clothes look so much better than M&S do
..... how can I?”
Giving clothes, & you, the life they deserve
Over 20 years of experience has brought me to this place, a Style Consultancy that offers wardrobe edit and personal shopping services, with two main aims:
To offer my knowledge, experience & expertise to all & give you the confidence you deserve
Keep clothes out of landfill; give clothes the life they deserve making better choices first time when making purchases
"Wardrobe revamps with a conscience: putting people & the planet at the heart of styling choices"
