Hey followers! I don't post much on Facebook anymore. Head to on Instagram or Adele Leahy on Linked In to stay up to date!

Ollie and I attempting to be serious during the photo shoot couldn’t be.

It’s inevitable when I’m in someone’s personal space that we connect and something funny ends up happening that results in big cheesy grins like this.

A lot of people are worried about what the dynamic would be like with a personal stylist. It’s normal to feel concerned.

“What will she think of my wardrobe?”
“Will she tell me I’m gross?”
“Will I feel judged?”
“Will she put me in clothes that I don’t like?”

So, yeah, these are the things people tell me that held them back from reaching out. For about six months. Six months!

Instead of allowing the unknown overwhelm you from making a step forward with your personal styling journey, imagine this:

We have a chat over the phone for about 15 mins first. You tell me what you want.

Then we meet at a cafe and have a chat about what you want.

Then we do a wardrobe audit and you tell me what you want to get rid of.

Then I do a pre-shop for you, pick you up and you tell me what you want to wear.

I act as a guide and a coach, but at no point do I coerce or override your wishes.

Many times you have all the things inside you, it’s my job to mine them and reflect them back to you, offering some tidbits along the way. Most of the time, I’m guiding you back to yourself by reminding you how deserving you are of choice, beautiful clothes and knowledge. Now.

Plus, we giggle. A lot!

Here’s Ollie. Doesn’t he look like a gem of a human? That would be cos he IS. Exactly one hundred years ago I was Ollie’s manager in a team I ran at the City of Perth. He trusted me to mentor and promote him. He has a stunning work ethic and leadership attributes.

When he entered his first body building competition, I went along to support him. And when I needed a manly face for Aesthetica, he generously obliged.

From the very beginning, it’s been important to me that Aesthetica looks after men as well as women. The challenges each gender face when it comes to style, clothes and confidence are equally compelling.

In many ways, it can be harder for men to connect with their style because well, have you noticed the percentage of male-oriented stores vs female oriented stores? Fashion is one of the few areas that women probably have more choice than men do so it poses an interesting situation.

Also, in a hyper macho culture like Australia, men are typically socialised to blank their feelings. A large part of connecting to style is connecting to self. If society says this isn’t ‘what you do’ then it can feel foreign and typically we avoid the things that feel foreign.

So, enter Ollie, the male face of Aesthetica. Once again, he trusted me to guide him through a styling process by experimenting with new looks that allowed him to see a different version of himself. He was curious, willing and held lightly the idea that his current clothing choices were the only clothing choices for him.

It’s a delight to look after all my lady clients and see them transform. It’s mesmerizing to watch men drop into a safe space and start to have fun with clothes. A lot of men have a lot to say about clothes and I consider it part of my calling to welcome this and in so doing kick in the dick this ideal that men shouldn’t have emotions.

We are all human. We all feel. We all have identity. We all have clothes. They are all inextricably linked, regardless of your gender.

Another super fab thing about being an MC? I get to wear statement pieces like this.

Locally designed and made by the magnificent queens at , this unbelievable dress was all my embroidered fabric and classic tailoring dreams come true.

Now when I say locally designed and made, Bridget allowed me to come to her house and get a fitting. The stunning velvet belt didn’t quite fit me so she had her fabulous team whip me up a custom-sized belt. I swung by an Italian nonnas house to pick it up.

It was a beautiful experience by passionate women who wanted to make sure I was my most confident self on the night. And, I was.

Thank you Bridget and team ❤️

It’s me. Hi. I’m the stylist. It’s me.

Hi! I’m Adele. I’ve been a stylist for three years after starting my training with the Australian Style Institute in 2020. Aesthetica Styling kicked off in 2021.

I’ve been a project manager most of my career. I sing in a choir. I play the ukulele. I’m currently training to swim to Rottnest.

What makes me a good stylist? Let me let you in on a little secret; it isn’t because I know the current trends or where you can get a second-hand authentic Gucci bag. It’s because you’re safe with me. It’s because I hold space for you. It’s because I take you on a journey you were intuitively hoping for but don’t know what it looks like.

Our style is deeply personal and most of us have a crisis of confidence when we consider it. Most of us feel like we should be better at it but don’t know how. We get stuck.

I’m a great stylist because I connect with you where you’re, wherever you’re at. In the same way my swimming coach lays out the path for me to get stronger, increase my endurance and improve my technique, I lay out the path for you to understand your signature style. Consider your buying patterns and make some accessible changes that can revolutionize your life.

Styling is so much more than clothes. It’s about how we see ourselves. It’s about offering ourselves the gift of self love by presenting a projection of ourselves that is more accurate to who we are.

For these types of journeys, it’s so much more enjoyable when we have someone showing us the rope and being our guide.

Thats me. Hi. I’m the stylist. It’s me ❤️

✨ WEDDING/EVENT MC SERVICES✨

Here I am MC for a wedding reception held a The Old Laundry. It went beautifully, the newlyweds delighted to have a large burden of organisation and live event management taken off their hands for their special evening. It was my pleasure to bring warmth, connection and fun through solid planning and great stage delivery ❤️

Here’s your list of event things to think about (that often get missed):

🤔tone and talk - will your MC provide a match for the vibe and language you want to hear at your event? Will they be inclusive and interesting?

🤔event run sheet - do you have one?

🤔 speeches - who will wrangle your speech givers so they are ready stage left on time?

🤔 Who will coordinate with kitchen, band and everyone else to make sure timings are staying to schedule?

🤔 What if stuff goes wrong? A speaker breaks, caterer wants to be paid now, a drunk family member wants to do a speech. Who is going to manage these things?

🤔 Thank yous and acknowledgements - have you included them all?

The key to a smooth, super fun night is detailed planning and contingency management. Oh yeah, then there is that elusive and difficult skill set of being a compelling and entertaining public speaker. I’ve been doing this for 15 years, let me take care of the details so you can be present with your guests and enjoy every minute.

I can’t really tell you what’s happening in this photo…the only explanation is that when you’re with people who see you and love you for who you are, it is the most validating, fun, life-affirming and wondrous thing around. Smiles and laughter are sure to abound.

This was earlier in the day yesterday, prior to me hosting the wedding reception of a pair of beautiful friends of mine who got hitched yesterday.

My internal feels were adequately expressed by the joy, life, colour and lightness of this beautiful dress. Every time I wear it, I feel such a light and lovely form of myself, heavily aided by the accessory of friendship I am always surrounded by.

Thank you for bringing me so much joy
