THE HOUSE OF STYLE - fashion stylist from London

“As a child Marian was fascinated with colour, shape and the varied textures of fabric. Her interests were architecture, poetry and fine art. Whilst still a teenager, she not only exhibited her work in galleries but also styled her first adult client. Unbeknown to her, her career as stylist had begun.
Marian went on to study Fashion design and textiles.
She passionately view’s fashion designs as living art. Thus she styles high fashion in a unique way to interpret it to the masses.
She has styled for editorial print, backstage at fashion shows and offers a personal styling consultation service.
Marian thoroughly believes that one’s style is of the up most importance. She regularly tells her clients ‘You have only one chance to make a lasting first impression. What is your style saying about you?’
She is married and currently resides in London.”

When I first read the ‘House Of Style’ profile, it read something like….. ‘Hello there, my name is Marian and im a ‘BUDDING FASHION STYLIST’, I was like BUDDING?
