House of Colour Magda Kazoli

In the realm of personal style, I emphasize to my clients the undeniable truth – clothing is our daily armour, speaking volumes about us before we say a single word. Consider these key questions: Do you genuinely enjoy your current style? Have you seamlessly adapted to the post-Covid work dress codes, feeling both comfortable and authentic? Are you aware of the power of colours in establishing a visual identity that exudes professionalism and expertise? Do your clothes radiate confidence and your own genuine expression? Is your shopping approach mindful, ethical, and sustainable? If a ‘no’ or uncertain response echoes in your mind to any of these questions, it might be time for a style reboot. Let’s engage in a no-obligation conversation about developing your distinctive personal brand. Remember, the best investment you can make is in yourself.

Extremely excited to announce - and shamelessly promote - my darling Mike's new children's book!
Written and beautifully illustrated by him, it's a lively A to Z animal journal, a book full of humour and characterful images.
In his own words "this book is for students of all ages, and parents, who enjoy learning about the often bizarre realities of the animal kingdom. Through this collection of Fun Facts, this journey provides an education that will bring a broad smile to all who read it. It will help introduce you to the wonders of wildlife, the diversity of our planet and of course the many weird and wonderful facts about the main characters within.
Many of the animals here will be less familiar to some people. We are often unaware that so many are struggling to survive. A lighthearted yet insightful glimpse at these precious creatures hopefully will encourage many to set off on their own journey of discovery. If this book can aid in keeping the conversation going, raising awareness concerning conservation and at the same time provide a little joy for all those who read it... then our animal friends will be very happy campers!"

“I’m fat.” “I’m old.” “I’m not enough.” “I was young once”. These are some of the frequent struggles I hear when working with women my age.
To all the females of 50 years and up, here’s what I say... Most of us are going through the next phase of our lives. We’re at that age where we see wrinkles, grey hair and extra pounds. We see the cute 25-year-old and reminisce. But we were also 25, just as they will one day be our age. What they bring to the table with their youth and zest, we bring with our wisdom and experience. We have raised families, run households, paid the bills, dealt with sadness and everything else life has assigned us. Some of us have lost those who were nearest and dearest to us. We are survivors. We are women. We are class. Even if our bodies aren’t what they once were, they carry our souls, our courage and our strength. We shall all enter this chapter of our lives with grace and pride over everything we have been through and we should never feel bad about getting older. It’s a privilege that is denied to so many.
It’s never easy overcoming our fears.
Yet, the evidence is compelling. Wearing clothes that express who we are, has a remarkable ability to uplift our spirits, and that's a fact. Adding some colour in our outfit, wearing a bit of lipstick, can create a sense of happiness. And when we 're happy, we naturally exude confidence, walk tall, and share our positivity with the world.
So, bid farewell to the shadows and step into the light. What stands before you in this magnificent journey?

This is WHY I love doing what I do.
“I’ve been looking 20+ years for the right image/style/colour consultant because I was looking for one who would fit the profile I wanted, and also, I’m a very demanding person. With Magda, I listened, took notes, recorded, shared stories, laughed, cried, debated, was surprised, was down, was annoyed, was glad, was fascinated, felt intrigue, excitement, amusement, calmness, confusion and lastly, admiration. I think that sums up very well that I HAVE BEEN TRANSFORMED in the most positive way ever imaginable by the none other than: five-star Magda Kazoli. Thank you for all your help!” J. Kowalsky

Here's a striking fact from statistics: "85% of women miss out on significant life events due to a lack of confidence in their appearance." However, you hold the key to change this, starting right now and every day: When you stand before the mirror, take a moment to recognize and appreciate all the qualities you value about yourself. Receive compliments graciously with a simple "thank you" – you truly deserve that acknowledgment. Brighten someone else's day by offering a heartfelt compliment; your words possess the power to profoundly impact them. Begin each day by affirming yourself with this mantra: You are extraordinary, remarkable, and wholly deserving. Always remember, you're not just okay; you are genuinely exceptional.

Choosing your outfits in the morning goes beyond just clothes. What you wear holds the remarkable ability to boost your confidence, invigorate your spirit, and spark joy within. When you feel good in what you're wearing, others will take notice, and you'll also feel a positive shift within yourself.
Sometimes, our clothes carry hidden feelings and memories that affect our choices, without even realizing it. But it’s these feelings that might hold us back from showing the world who we truly are.
If you find yourself uncertain about your style or unsure of what suits you best, it's time to seize control and embark on a journey of getting dressed with intent.

Personal style is like a mirror reflecting your inner self. It's not uncommon to feel disconnected from your true essence when what you wear doesn't resonate with your identity and emotions.
Think of an Image Consultant as your friendly guide, helping you find the perfect balance between your true personality, your personal style choices, and what suits your body best.
At House of Colour, we embrace a holistic, psychology-based approach that enables you to express yourself through your clothing in a way that is both authentic and empowering, resulting in genuine joy and confidence.

A great wardrobe isn't about following fashion trends. It's about staying true to your style while being relevant.
I am excited to share the Autumn/Winter 2023-24 Seasonal Style Guide. The main aim is to help you easily find the trends using your existing wardrobe and help you make the trends work for your CLOTHING PERSONALITY (which you can discover in your Image Consultation).

Why should you think about getting an Image Consultation?
Simple: Empowerment.
It's about empowering yourself to fully embrace and express your truest self. You'll radiate unwavering self-confidence. You'll gain a deep understanding of what styles enhance your unique features. You'll educate yourself about the elements that define and elevate your individual identity. You'll be able to craft a more versatile wardrobe with endless outfit possibilities.
It’s also a way to make smarter spending choices that match your style and goals. Plus, you'll save loads of valuable time that you'd otherwise spend sifting through mismatched items. No more getting caught up in fleeting fashion trends. With an Image Consultation, you'll confidently say no to trends that just don't align with your core essence. So why wait? Let's get you on the path to looking and feeling your best!

In the world of fashion and personal style, a capsule wardrobe stands as a beacon of simplicity and conscious choice. It's a mindful, sustainable curation of clothing that not only declutters your space but also enhances your style and overall presence.
In our age of rampant overconsumption, the solution is remarkably straightforward: less is more. By choosing to buy less and invest in high-quality pieces, you not only reduce waste but also elevate your daily style. The key lies in educating yourself about your unique needs – a wardrobe that complements your body, matches your personality, suits your lifestyle, and aligns with your budget.
The transformation we seek starts with a shift in our relationship with clothing. It's about changing our behaviour, making thoughtful choices, and embracing a more conscious approach to fashion.
This is precisely why I'm passionate about what I do. My approach is not just theoretical; it's tried and tested.
I offer education to empower you with the knowledge you need. I offer support to help you change your behaviour and make sustainable choices. Together, we can find a genuine solution to the overconsumption problem, one that leaves you feeling more stylish, confident, and environmentally responsible.

What a great start of the week ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“From start to finish, my experience with Magda was exceptional and I am really happy with the results.
First and foremost, her professionalism and expertise were evident from our initial consultation. Her attention to detail and ability to listen and understand my needs made me feel confident in her abilities.
She made a selection of clothing and accessories that perfectly aligned with my style, introducing me to new brands and pieces that I would not have discovered on my own. I was also impressed with her ability to create versatile outfits with some items from my wardrobe. She showed me how to mix and match different pieces, creating multiple outfits from a few key items.
Furthermore, she was always available to answer any questions, ensuring that I felt supported throughout the entire styling experience.
I highly recommend Magda to anyone who wants to feel good with him/herself and look at his/her best!!”

Hello August, the month that is notoriously dry and hot here in Greece.
As with most southern European countries, this is the time we take our foot off the gas and step away from the "craziness" of everyday life.
For me, now is the perfect moment to relax, recharge, reset and refocus.
August is about paying attention to family and myself. And ultimately, it’s by “turning off” that I believe I'll be able to "turn back on" much brighter when I return. 🌟

New blog article on how to keep stylish during the Greek summer.
Give it a go and let me know in the comments how you choose to stay cool and stylish during hot days!

As my page has recently seen many new friends, I grab the opportunity to shine a light on what I do!
An Image Consultant is NOT:
❌Just about fashion
❌Making you spend money
❌Making you superficial and vain
❌Only for famous people or public figures
❌Only for women
An Image Consultant IS:
✅ Instilling empowerment
✅ Building confidence
✅ Teaching life changing skills
✅ Promoting sustainability by buying less and investing wisely
✅ A game changer for men too
And in my fabulous colleague’s words:
“Working with a stylist isn’t about them deciding what you wear​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​🌈. It’s a collaborative process and keeps evolving.
Think of me as your wardrobe PT.
Yes, you could do it yourself but you get pushed a bit more, which gives better results when you work with a trainer!”

A star among pebbles… Standing out is not a bad thing; it’s about being able to peel back the layers imposed by external pressures of society, well-meaning family and friends and discovering how to present yourself confidently, authentically and unapologetically.
Start to dress more visibly, start to dress to express!

The Barbie movie premiered a few days ago, and if you exist in the same world I do, you must have noticed that the pink-tinged excitement infiltrated the world, from memes to red carpet looks to endless brand collaborations.

“I first learned about HoC as a postgrad student in the UK. That's when I first embarked on my transformational journey with colour and personal image. What a revelation it was! Soon I started feeling more confident and happier, and my friends noticed the difference. Fortunately, upon returning to my hometown Athens, I found Ms. Kazoli. After just our first meeting, I became a fan. Magda knows her stuff! Not to mention she's a wonderful person, genuine, and friendly. The Style Development Class helped me develop my style even further. Magda clarified all the "grey areas" I still had about how to dress and live in focus. And it was a fun experience too! Working with Magda and doing the HoC classes has transformed my life. I can't recommend her highly enough!”
Very very touched, a heartful thank you Eleanna!

Μοτίβα και εμπριμέ: μπορούν να βάλουν τη σφραγίδα στο προσωπικό στυλ!
3 είναι τα βασικά σημεία για να επιλέξετε αυτά που σας ταιριάζουν:
1. Χρώμα - Η Χρωματική Ανάλυση καθορίζει τα καλύτερα χρώματά σας και σας δίνει περιγραφικές λέξεις καθώς και το προσωπικό σας χρωματολόγιο, ώστε να γνωρίζετε την ιδανική χρωματική παλέτα για τον υποτόνο της επιδερμίδας σας.
2. Κλίμακα - μικρή ή μεγάλη; Μικρή που δείχνει κομψή ή μήπως σας”μπουκώνει”; Μεγάλη που προσθέτει θετικά έμφαση ή υπερτερεί και σας εξαφανίζει; Η Ανάλυση Προσωπικού Στυλ καθορίζει ξεκάθαρα την καλύτερη για εσάς - και σας έχω έκπληξη… δεν βασίζεται πάντα στο ύψος/μέγεθος του σώματος!
3. Ενδυματολογική Προσωπικότητα - Η Ανάλυση Προσωπικού Στυλ διευκολύνει την επιλογή των εμφανίσεων που σας ελκύουν και σας κολακεύουν.
Όταν κατανοήσετε αυτά τα 3 βασικά σημεία, τα μοτίβα και εμπριμέ γίνονται ένας δημιουργικά διασκεδαστικός τρόπος για να προσθέσετε ενδιαφέρον και αντίκτυπο στην εμφάνισή σας!

"Η κατανάλωση υφασμάτων στην Ευρώπη έχει τον τέταρτο μεγαλύτερο αντίκτυπο στο περιβάλλον και στην κλιματική αλλαγή μετά τα τρόφιμα, τη στέγαση και την κινητικότητα.

Γνωρίζοντας ακριβώς τι σας ταιριάζει, μπορείτε να αγοράζετε λιγότερα, να κάνετε καλύτερες επιλογές και να δημιουργήσετε μια βιώσιμη γκαρνταρόμπα που σας εκφράζει και "δουλεύει" για εσάς σε κάθε περίσταση και δραστηριότητα.

Supporting people to express their authenticity and individuality through personal style can be a powerful way to help them feel more confident and comfortable in their own skin. Personal style can be a form of self-expression that allows individuals to communicate who they are and what they stand for without having to say a word. And it is not just about fashion and clothing; it can encompass a wide range of choices, including hairstyles, accessories, makeup, and even home decor. All of these elements can work together to create a cohesive and unique expression of an individual's personality and values.
Ultimately, supporting people to express their unique visual voice, involves creating a safe and welcoming environment that encourages self-exploration and creativity. It's about empowering people to be themselves and to embrace their unique qualities, whatever they may be.

Happy Greek Orthodox Easter!

Καλή Ανάσταση!

To στυλ δεν καθορίζεται από το νούμερο που φοράμε.
Το προσωπικό στυλ είναι ένας μοναδικός τρόπος έκφρασης και δεν πρέπει να περιορίζεται σε (ή να καθορίζεται από) κοινωνικά πρότυπα ή συγκεκριμένα μοντέλα ομορφιάς. Σε όλ@ς αξίζει να νιώθουν υπέροχα και να δείχνουν φανταστικά ανεξάρτητα από το μέγεθός τους.
Με χαρά αποδέχτηκα την πρόσκληση της για να συμμετέχω στο 1st Beauty Festival που διοργάνωσε εξαιρετικά το .
Μια αίθουσα κατάμεστη από υπέροχες κυρίες, που μυήθηκαν στον κόσμο των χρωμάτων, της χαράς και της αυτοπεποίθησης.
είσαι μια άψογη οικοδέσποινα, κορίτσια του με σκλαβώσατε με τον ενθουσιασμό σας, το χαμόγελό σας, τη ζεστασιά σας.
Ένα μεγάλο ευχαριστώ από καρδιάς, να είμαστε όλες καλά και να ξαναβρεθούμε σύντομα!

Απόψε στην Κέρκυρα!

1ο Beauty Festival: Γιορτάζουμε τη γυναίκα! Εμείς στο Oxygen Plus στα 21 χρόνια λειτουργίας μας στην Κέρκυρα, έχουμε σαν μοναδική αποστολή μας να βάλουμε στην ζωή των γυναικών, την ....

… ´Ελα όμως που αν η επιδερμίδα σας είναι θερμή (έχει κίτρινους υποτόνους) χρειάζεστε το ξανθό ντορέ (χρυσαφένιο) και όχι το ξανθό σαντρέ (ασημένιο);;
Γενικευμένες συμβουλές, παρόμοια editorials, influencers κτλ προτρέπουν ως επί το πλείστον σε μη κολακευτικά αποτελέσματα (εάν κατά τύχη δεν είστε μέσα σε κείνες που τους ταιριάζει) και οδηγούν σε πεποιθήσεις που πολλές φορές δημιουργούν ανασφάλεια και έλλειψη αυτοπεποίθησης. Τα μαλλιά σας, αποτελούν μόνιμο αξεσουάρ πάνω στο κεφάλι σας! Το σωστό χρώμα θα σας πλαισιώσει αρμονικά και θα σας χαρίσει υγιή όψη και φρεσκάδα, ενώ το λάθος (βάσει των υποτόνων της επιδερμίδας σας) θα σας δείχνει κουρασμένη και "γκριζαρισμένη".
Η λύση; Απομακρύντε τις αμφιβολίες και αποφύγετε τους λανθασμένους πειραματισμούς, ανακαλύπτοντας τι πραγματικά ταιριάζει σε ΕΣΑΣ!
Μπορείτε να ξεκινήσετε με μια απλή ενημέρωση στέλνοντάς μου ένα μήνυμα. Θα χαρώ πολύ να σας απαντήσω.

Calling all blondes | Βρήκαμε τον #1 τρόπο για να κάνεις για το απόλυτο 'παγωμένο' ξανθό χρώμα στα μαλλιά σου Μπορείς να αποφύγεις το ανεπιθύμητο κιτρίνισμα στα μαλλιά αν είσαι ξανθιά και αυτός είναι ο τρόπος.

Είναι αρκετές οι φορές που κάποι@ μου εκμυστηρεύονται το δισταγμό τους να ξεκινήσουν το ταξίδι του Προσωπικού τους Στυλ. Ο λόγος; Φοβούνται μήπως ακούσουν ότι τα κάνουν όλα λάθος.
Θα μου επιτρέψετε να σας πω λοιπόν, ότι η όλη διαδικασία είναι εκπαιδευτική και πολύ υποστηρικτική. Δεν αναφέρεται σε λάθη, δεν στοχεύει σε απαγορεύσεις, δεν κρίνει με αυστηρότητα. Προτείνει μέσα από μια επιστημονικά βασισμένη διαγνωστική διαδικασία τις καλύτερες εκδοχές έκφρασης σε χρώματα + στυλ για εσάς, αυτές που σέβονται και αναδεικνύουν ό,τι σας προίκισε η φύση.
Τολμήστε να πετάξετε! Δεν θα πέσετε… πιστέψτε με, θα απογειωθείτε!
