“I had a colour analysis session and honestly it was amazing! She was so warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable from start to finish. Not only did she help me discover the clothing colours that actually suit me, but she also gave amazing advice on jewellery tones and makeup colours that bring everything together beautifully.

I'd been stuck in my “sad beige mum” era for far too long, and this experience genuinely brought some life and confidence back into my wardrobe. I now feel excited to get dressed again and finally understand why certain colours never worked for me.

Such a lovely experience — I left feeling uplifted, confident, and much more like myself again. Highly recommend to anyone considering colour analysis!”

“I've enjoyed wearing colour for a while now but never really known which colours suited me best. Having my colour analysis done with Pilar was such a fun experience with friends but the knowledge I've come away with has been great!

I went to a ball recently and bought a new pale blue dress… a colour I would never normally wear. I got so many compliments!

I then went to a wedding and wore an orange dress worn a few times… looking back at photos from the two events the pale blue suits me way more! It makes me look younger because the colour suits me better!!!

When I shop now I get out my colour chart and choose new colours with utter confidence!! So happy to know more about colour!!

Thanks Pilar, highly recommend!”

“I could not recommend this experience with Pilar more! Having undergone chemotherapy earlier this year, my appearance has altered and I'd lost some of my confidence. Having been in a headspace where my appearance needed to be the least interesting thing about me, I wanted to step back into having fun with my appearance, and using colour to reflect my mood and lift my spirits. This was exactly what I needed- I now know what colours suit me, what make up colours to choose, and it's allowing me to build a capsule wardrobe knowing that all the things I own go together and are interchangeable.

Pilar is fantastic at what she does, she has a real flair and eye for colour, and just makes the whole experience so much fun. Thank you again!”

“I had a really lovely morning with Pilar. She was warm and bubbly and quickly put me at ease before beginning the draping letting me see for myself what colours worked for me.( I look ten years younger with the better colours- the difference was then unbelievable). We then explored which colours combined and worked well together and she suggested some base items I might find helpful in my wardrobe, mentioning shops currently having clothes and styles that might suit me in these colours. She also showed me which colours I am better avoiding ( or not wearing near my face).

We finished with talking about makeup and she encouraged me to try some new lipstick shades.”

“I left my colour analysis with Pilar feeling really uplifted and more confident in myself. It's so much clearer now which colours actually suit me and make me look brighter and more alive. Pilar is down to earth, warm and approachable and her passion for colour and how it can change how you look and feel is infectious.”

Pilar repliedThanks Linda, I'm delighted you enjoyed the Colour Analysis and you looked so fabulous in your bright spring shades!

“I visited Pilar with my sister for a colour analysis session. We have a brilliant time with Pilar, she's really knowledgeable and guided us with enthusiasm through the experience. We both left with a swatch of colours suited to us, and far more confidence to pick clothing in bolder colours! I would definitely recommend if you're looking for a fun activity which helps you to dress and feel more confident. Pilar is also super friendly and welcoming, making you feel at ease through the process.”

“When I had my consultation with Pilar - the first thing that 'hit' me was Pilar's passion and enthusiasm. Immediately, I knew I was in safe hands.

Pilar not only did my colour analysis but she also addressed my wardrobe - which by all accounts needed it!

Following my consultation, I was given a 'summer colour chart' - I never shop without it. It has made shopping a much more enjoyable experience, as I can discount so many clothes because they're not my colour.

Now when I go out, I often get compliments about how well I look - and this is all to do with the colour that I am wearing.

Pilar is such a positive, bubbly person - she makes you feel a million dollars. I would recommend her input to your wardrobe and your clothing choices.

It will revolutionise your shopping experience.

Thanks so much, Pilar.”

“Pilar was warm and welcoming.

I thoroughly enjoyed having my colours done. I was so surprised by what suited me, and it's filled me with confidence to put some colour back into my wardrobe.

Lovely I could take a friend along too.

Highly recommend if you're not sure what colours to wear, Pilar is so professional and friendly and gives lots of food for thought.”

“Pilar's enthusiasm and experience shone through as she guided my 5 friends and myself during a colour matching evening. Lots of honest advice on colouring and we now each use our palette to help guide our clothing choices. Really helpful advice on what shades to focus on and brighten up our 40s!”

“I can't recommend Pilar enough. She's warm, fun and extremely passionate about what she does. She's not trying to tell you not to wear your favourite colours, she's showing you colours that suit you. That light up your face and enhance you without the need for make up. I love wearing black and my colours are Autumn colours. Pilar has shown me what shades are right for me as well as how to wear them together. Since seeing Pilar I've had a wardrobe clear out and I'm more mindful now when I'm shopping. Avoiding buying colours that drain me. Thanks Pilar”

“Was so excited to have my colours done and I was not disappointed. Pilar was a warm and caring person with a great deal and fun and professionalism. There were colours I never knew would suit me. I have recommended her to all my friend and I am now just looking at clothing that I know will suit me. One last pleasure was Hector the dog. A real character. Thankyou Pilar. Xxx”

“Pilar has spoken at our client's events in the past and shows an infectious enthusiasm for helping people to make the most of their existing wardrobes, restyling clothes, helping you find your capsule wardrobe with styles and colours that really suit you. She helped me cull an overfull wardrobe, helped me understand which styles made me look slimmer or accentuated the better bits of my figure. It was a really positive experience, really good fun. Pilar's brand is all about making you feel more confident and happy.”

“I went to Pilar for a colour consultation with my friend and we had an absolute blast! Pilar is a lovely lady to spend an afternoon with, and my friend and I left with some fun new colours to try out for ourselves, some of which were quite surprising. I can confirm that since our afternoon with Pilar we have both been shopping and bought clothes in our recommended colours, even the surprising ones, and are very much enjoying them. Would recommend to anyone wanting a fun afternoon out.”

“To say the experience was transformative would be an understatement. For the first time, I felt empowered to step out of my comfort zone — and the compliments haven't stopped.”
