Fashion Make-Over Morning at Cavells
09 November 2010
We have just hosted a fun and informative 'make-over' morning at Cavells. The day started with coffee and biscuits and was followed by a talk from Rosie, our in-house stylist. Rosie talked about fashion, and our approach to it here at Cavells. She discussed an article she had read "describe your style in three words" - and how from initially coming up with "short, chubby and frazzled" she eventually realised she could comfortably settle for "on-trend, creative and casual". Tips for putting the "three words" into reality were firstly pick a colour palette that works with our skin tone, dress appropriately for your age and occasion and lastly always use your style to express your personality.
Tiffany Ross, buyer for Cavells and Cavells South Street, followed Rosie's talk with a quick chat about the buying side of the shop, and a little about what goes on behind the scenes.
Two members of our staff from the offices upstairs had bravely volunteered to be used as the "before and after models" - happily they were both thrilled with the results. They were dressed in two outfits each - one casual and then a party outfit. Their hair had been cut, coloured and styled by award winning hairdressers Simon Cawthorne and Suzi Smith, make-up artist, had done their make up. As you can see from the photographs the transformation was a huge success and interesting for all the audience to see.

One lucky lady in the audience was very happy to find she was sitting on the "golden ticket" - a voucher for Cavells - which I am sure she will have no problem spending!
The rest of the morning was spent shopping in Cavells, followed by a delicious lunch at Hambleton Hall.
