Hi I’m Lou the founder of Jade Style Coaching™ and creator of the Colourful Capsule Wardrobe.
Let’s get to know each other a little better, heh?
Fun fact one: Jade’s my middle name. Plus being a shade of green, it seemed the perfect name for a styling business! I absolutely love the colour green, as I’m sure you can tell!
Fun fact two: I’m a certified Style Coach™ and member of the International Association of Style Coaches™ (IASC). As a self-confessed fashion lover, there is nothing more rewarding than helping other women discover their inner style passion.
Fun fact three: I will admit that my wardrobe was so cluttered at one point that my clothing rail collapsed! Oops!!!

Yes that last fact sadly isn’t a joke. I only wish it was!
Let’s backdate a handful of years ago, as I was very much in your shoes. A clueless, impulse buyer who bought clothes on a whim, with little thought to whether they actually suited me.
My closet was crammed. Full of items I hardly wore (if at all), which made combining different, stylish outfits each morning a challenge. To be completely truthful, it always felt like I never had “anything to wear,” only the same, old outfits.
Plus, I dread to think how much time and money I have wasted over the years!
The real turning point though, was completing my Style Coaching™ training and seeing style and shopping through a new lens. I realised that my wardrobe needed order and I definitely wanted an easier, quicker solution to dressing stylishly.
Now fast forward to today. I’ve created my own Capsule Wardrobe that allows me to coordinate many a stylish outfit. And you guessed it – from fewer, quality items that suit my shape, natural colouring, style and lifestyle.
However, I found the old school way of building a Capsule Wardrobe full of neutrals, to be boring and uninspiring. Hmm talk about a lack of personality!
I thought it was time for a reinvention…
A new, more innovative approach to building a Capsule Wardrobe that enables you to have “more fun” with your outfits. Adding a splash of personality and what makes you YOU, so to speak.
When I think back to whenever I shop, the one thing that always draws my eye – is the colour!
Let’s face it, colour is the foundation of our wardrobe and style. The key to how we express our authentic selves, no matter the occasion. So, why wouldn’t we want to add more colour to our outfits?
I’m a huge fan of not just bringing colour into all aspects of the styling process, but simplifying our wardrobes. All without compromising on style and personality!
Hence the Colourful Capsule Wardrobe was born. A capsule wardrobe full of your best colours to suit you, your shape and sense of style. What’s not to like?
So there you have it…I’ve been there done that! I’ve very much felt the frustration! I’ve learnt the tips, tricks and secrets to effortless Capsule Wardrobe styling (so you don’t have to)!
After helping countless women create their dream capsule wardrobe, I can certainly help cross “Wardrobe Revamp” off your list.
Want more proof? Here’s what one of my lovely ladies had to say:
“I contacted Louise following changes in my working life and body weight, which left me with a wardrobe full of clothes that didn’t fit me and that weren’t appropriate for my current lifestyle. I no longer knew what my style was and needed help with developing a new one, dressing to enhance my new body shape and creating a capsule wardrobe from which I could build upon with seasonal items.
Our initial meeting allowed us to get to know each other, before discussing my current style, paving the way for the Defining Your Personal Style session where we looked at my style likes and dislikes, helping me to discover my ”Style Personality”. I really enjoyed the Body Shape Analysis session when Louise identified my unique body shape and gave me great tips on how to enhance my new figure, as well as what items and garments to avoid. During the colour analysis session, Louise used a wide range of colour tools and drapes to identify my colour season, as well as my “wow colours”. I loved the colour swatches she gave me to take clothes shopping. At our final meeting we used a wardrobe inventory checklist to analyse my current wardrobe and make a shopping list of clothes and accessories to suit the new me.
With all our sessions summarised in my Personal Style Development Presentation, which included purchasing recommendations based on my budget and preferred brands, I now have all that I need to shop confidently for my new body shape and style.”
