The most important thing I’ve learned is to remember what I have at home before purchasing new items.

Adam, tell us about yourself?
I work in Banking, I love to travel far away and local, to relax in the sunshine or to explore and to try out new places in the city! I enjoy checking out new bars, new restaurants, the theatre, art galleries & concerts you name it. I also work out at my local gym, I love nice walks and the countryside is so refreshing when I get to escape busy London. I want my personal style to reflect my personality and to be suitable for my lifestyle.
How did you decide to book a style session for the first time? What did you want to achieve? Tell us more about your Personal Style Story London
I love new clothes and style, but I don’t always get it right putting the right shoes with the right trousers or the right top under the blazer. Also, my job in banking is very dynamic which means I don’t have much time for shopping. So I decided to take professional advice so that I could maximise my look without wasting time shopping or money on clothing I won’t wear. I prefer to spend my free time enjoying new restaurants, doing sports and travelling while trusting my stylist to source the best outfits for these occasions. That reason was more than enough for me to book a style session with a personal stylist.
You also had a professional photoshoot with us to update your business and personal portfolio. Did you enjoy the photoshoot?
I loved the photo shoot, it made everything I had learnt and gained from the styling session come to life. It also boosted my confidence in reminding me that I can look great now I know what to wear, when and how! 🙂
“The photos from the photoshoot in London also came in handy for linkedin and dating sites as I’m captured happy and at my best!”
What is your ideal personal style?
I like to think I’m stylish, I often wear smart casual as the dress code at work is a little more relaxed than suit and tie. I do wear a range of suits for the more formal occasion, but when I’m not in work I aim for the casual, comfortable but trendy look to go along with my personal style story London.
How working with an image consultant changed the way you dress?
I now have a better sense of what colours work well together when and how, same for mixing up smart and casual for a more dress down office look. The most important thing I’ve learned is to remember what I have at home before purchasing new items. I’m getting better at not duplicating, but maximising compatibility of 1 new item with my existing clothes to make up multiple outfits. I’m also feeling much more positive about the way I look, I have a newfound confidence.
” Comfort is key for me, but I also like to look smart and well put together to reflect my position at work.”
Accessories are a vital part of men’s style – the finner details such as belt, frames, watch and pockets square elevate your style.
To who you would recommend booking a styling session?
I would recommend my stylist to anyone. I would recommend to everyone who wants some advice and guidance but already dresses well – a personal stylist will give you a fresh perspective on items that suit you but you might have never thought of before. If you want to understand more about fashion and feel more confident in what you wear or to want to be pampered for the day looking great by the end of it.
What do you like most about working with a personal stylist?
Talking is good in any situation. Being able to seek expert fashion advice is also something which gives us reassurance and this is the best part about having a stylist. Advice and support is ok to hand to keep in with trends but to also get value for money. My stylist is on hand for seasonal wardrobe reviews or the odd styling session online or on the highstreet throwing in time for a coffee or prosecco. So the services offered suits me perfectly.
