Akke Marije van der Werf
Hello, I’m Akke Marije, styliste, and happily married with two sons.
"Aren’t clothes what makes the man (or the woman)? Style is used... to express who you are!"
“As a little girl, I used my mom’s wardrobe to create different combinations and looks. I was fascinated by what clothes can do to change how you feel about yourself and how you are perceived by others. Clothes can make you happy, inspire you or boost your self-confidence.
After studying at the academy for fashion management, I spent five years working as a purchaser for some of the largest fashion brands. I gained a lot of experience, learning about fits, fabrics, styles, trends, materials, brands and collections.
Even though I loved my job, it opened my eyes to a problem that many people have: they often find it difficult to figure out which clothes fit them best. “Who am I and what really suits me?” was a question that I heard a lot. In 2006 I decided to follow my heart and started helping people find the best looks for themselves. It makes me happy when I see people glow when they look in the mirror! Since I started in 2006 a lot of special things have happened. We give advice to many happy (and regular) customers every year. And after all, clothes make the man (and woman), right? Style is used… to express who you really are!” -

Hello, I am Elise, stylist, and married with three children.
"It’s wonderful to see someone light up with confidence..."
“I am a real people-person. Seeing how my clients’ self-confidence grows when they look in the mirror is something I savor! I have 18 years of experience in fashion and styling, and I have deep knowledge of different brands and fits. I stay up-to-date on all the trends and can teach you which styles would be best for you. What your life is like, who you are, what you do and what you want all matter to me.
The joy my clients feel when they look good especially sparks my enthusiasm. That’s something I relish. The right clothing style enhances your appearance and gives your self-confidence an extra boost.” -

Hello, I am Barbara, personal shopper and happily married with children.
"Surprising, sparkling, but still you!"
“I have a lot of experience in fashion as a buyer and professional stylist. All I’ve ever wanted was to share my passion for making people happy with their personal styles. Clothes have a lot of influence on how you feel and how you come across. I can tell you about the best cities, shops, and places for buying fashion. You’ll learn everything about the best styles and colors for your figure, and which collections would be best for you. Surprising, different, and yet always you! My approach can best be described as inspiring, informative, “out of the box” and fun! I really immerse myself in your uniqueness. To see that you’re happy with your personal style is what makes me happy!”

“From a very young age, I’ve been into fashion. During and after university, I was responsible for the purchase and sale of various fashion shops and chains.
Over the course of those years, it became increasingly clear to me that there is great demand for personal attention and expertise in the world of fashion because everyone is unique and has their own individual needs.
I’m on top of styles and trends, have an eye for color, fit, and fabrics, and am particularly attuned to your one-of-a-kind needs.
You can always look stylish, no matter your budget. I’m always familiar with the latest collections and know exactly where to find the cutest items and the best shops. I really enjoy their smiles when my clients see their reflection in the mirror… In 2010 Akke Marije and I joined forces to make even more people happy with how they look.”
