Geographical Location of Stylists
It is the purchaser’s responsibility to ensure that they are both in a geographic area serviced by My Style Companion and in a position to receive the services purchased. The purchaser must be in a position to receive the services purchased and expect to allow a Style Companion access to their wardrobes, clothing and accessories wherever they may be located in the home. If the purchaser is unable for any reason to allow their Style Companion access to their wardrobes, clothes or accessories it will deemed to be a cancellation, however My Style Companion may provide an exchange of services at their discretion.
Currently My Style Companion operate within the North West region of the UK, mainly Cheshire, Manchester, Liverpool, Wirral, North Wales, Chester, North Wales, Lancashire and Merseyside as well as some areas in Staffordshire. This list is intended as a guide only, so please contact us to check if we provide services in your area, as we recruit new stylists and personal shoppers regularly through our training programme.
My Style Companion cannot accept responsibility for those booking or purchasing services online without checking with My Style Companion if that area can be covered. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to make these checks before purchase.

Travel Expenses:
Travel expenses for our stylists may be extra if the client is based outside of areas covered by our stylists. These are charged at 40p per mile return journey. The agreed amount is to be paid to the stylist on the day. If you are buying any of our personal styling services as a Gift Voucher you can pay for the travel expenses yourself - please inform us if you wish to do so at the time of booking by emailing us or calling us. We will make every endeavour to match you with a stylist based close to you if possible to keep travel expenses to a minimum.
If My Style Companion is unable to fulfil an order due to geographic location, a refund will be offered subject to our cancellation terms.
If for any reason you need to change the date of your appointment, My Style Companion are happy to reorganise appointments to suit you within 1 month of the original appointment, however this is subject to availability so there may be a wait involved. If you need to reschedule, there is no charge for up to 2 reschedules, however payment must have been provided in full to reschedule.
If you call to reschedule, it would be great if you could have your diary to hand to get another date booked in. If you reschedule your appointment more than twice, you will then be subject to a £25 rescheduling fee for every additional reschedule.
In the unlikely event that we should ever need to, My Style Companion reserve the right to reschedule appointments with clients. Should this unlikely event occur, My Style Companion will make every attempt to find another appointment that will suit the client equally as well.
We will deem you to have made a cancellation if you fail to confirm and / or attend a pre-arranged appointment OR inform us you no longer wish to have an appointment with us anymore. Cancellations must be sent via email to info@mystylecompanion.com or in writing to:-My Style Companion 6 Heyden Close Macclesfield Cheshire SK10 3GJ
If you do have to cancel your appointment for any reason at all, please try to let us know as soon as possible as you may incur charges.
Cancellations of appointments, bookings or purchases are subject to a £10 administration fee from the time of purchase, up until 14 days before the date of appointment.
14 days or less prior to the appointment date cancellation will incur a £50 charge.
Cancellations of appointments or bookings less than 7 days in advance are charged at 50% of the price of the service, plus any travel or accommodation expenses that have been incurred.
For Style Consultations, Wardrobe Consultations, Personal Shopping services and Online Personal Shopper, you may be asked to complete a client profile form to assist our stylists and ensure that on the day of your appointment, you get the most from the time with your personal stylist. Upon confirmation of your appointment, when payment has been made in full, you will receive instructions on how to complete your client form, which can be done via email or post or over the telephone.
There is no need to do any preparation before your appointment. Your Style Companion will do all the work! All that we ask is that you keep all of your clothes in the wardrobe as they are; but perhaps bring shoes and accessories in to the same room as your wardrobe, so that your style advisor can see everything you have to work with.
Some clients in the past have had a good clear out of their wardrobe before we arrive; and although this is absolutely fine, you may want your style advisor to check over everything before it heads to the charity shop, just to ensure you aren’t parting with something that could be revived!
If you have seen any particular outfits or pictures in magazines that you like, feel free to collect them in order to show to your stylist when she arrives.
For personal shopping services, wear comfortable clothes that you can get in and out of easily; as you will be trying a lot of different outfits on! If you have had a wardrobe or style consultation beforehand, it is always worth asking your stylist if you should wear anything particular (as she will know the contents of your wardrobe).
Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes either as you will be doing some walking. If you are looking to purchase something in particular on your shopping trip that you haven’t already discussed with your stylist, let her know in advance of your personal shop together.
Last but not least – bring an open mind and trust your Style Companion! They are there to work FOR you and WITH you and get you the results YOU want. Don’t be afraid to be honest and open about what you want to achieve and then trust their expertise – you won’t be disappointed.
Online Personal Shopper
Our online personal shopper service is intended to provide you with ideas and inspiration for outfits for special events and occasions. For £50 you will receive five outfit options by email. Before conducting online personal shopping, we require a full length photo of yourself by email along with a returned client profile form, which you will receive upon booking. My Style Companion can not conduct the online personal shopper service without the photo and client profile form that must be provided.
Post Service Support
Depending on the service your personal stylist or shopper has provided, she may feel it appropriate to follow up your session with some further advice or style suggestions via phone or email. If you have any questions for your personal stylist, you may drop them a line by phone or email for some advice during her hours of work, where she will be happy to respond your query.
Gift certificates may not be exchanged for cash in either full or part and are only redeemable in the geographical areas outlined unless confirmed in writing by My Style Companion.
