Bianca,
"Teen Confidence & Budget-Friendly Wardrobe"
"Pensy is amazing! She took my shy teenager shopping and helped her find confidence and affordable, stylish clothes. Pensy's fun, relatable approach made a huge difference. My daughter left feeling beautiful, confident, and excited—even ready for ball dress shopping! Pensy's service is worth every cent for the boost in self-esteem alone."
Sheryl,
"Gifted Styling & Thrift Shopping Experience"
My daughters gifted me a personal shopping trip with Pensy—what an incredible experience! Over coffee, we discussed my style and goals. Pensy helped me break free from outdated fashion rules and shop smarter. She found stylish, high-quality pieces at thrift shops that I never would have picked myself. I left with a wardrobe I love for only $204! I now feel confident, stylish, and excited for this next chapter of my life. Thank you, Pensy!"
Jessie,
"Rediscovering My Style and Myself — Thanks to Pensy"
“I’d struggled for years to express my own style — until I booked a Style & Shop experience with Pensy. In just 4 hours, she listened, styled, and gently encouraged me to try new things until I truly felt like myself. I went home with 16 beautiful, coordinated, op-shopped summer and winter pieces that fit perfectly into my wardrobe. I can’t stop smiling — totally worth it in every way. Thank you, Pensy, for teaching me so much and supporting me to be myself -

"A Gift for the Next Chapter: Confidence and Style for a New Graduate
"I received a gift voucher from my parents after I graduated, and it was honestly one of the best presents I could have asked for. I had no idea how to dress for the next stage of my life. Pensy helped me figure out my personal style and guided me through the process of choosing clothes that made me feel confident and put-together for interviews and my new job. The experience was empowering, and I finally understood how to dress for success without sacrificing my personality. I can’t thank my parents enough for this thoughtful gift, and I’m so glad I invested in this consultation. It made such a difference in how I see myself and how others see me."

"Adapting to Life in NZ with a Style That Fits"
"I found Pensy online and wasn’t sure what to expect, but something told me it was the right choice to book a consultation. Moving to New Zealand and starting a new job,
I needed a wardrobe refresh but didn’t know where to start. Pensy made the entire process easy and fun! She helped me redefine my style, creating outfits that fit my body, my new life, and my new workplace. Now, I feel confident and stylish every day. Booking with Pensy was absolutely worth it!"

"Maximise Your Closet
with Pensy"
"I had so many clothes that were practically new, waiting for the 'right occasion' that never came. Pensy showed me that some things weren’t really my style — and that it’s okay to move on. With her colour advice and smart suggestions to fill the gaps, I feel excited to get dressed every morning!"
Helen,
"Confidence in Every Outfit"
"Pensy helped me finally understand why I wasn’t reaching for certain pieces in my wardrobe — wrong colours, wrong fit, or just not really my style. Letting go felt easy once I knew why. Now, every outfit I wear feels like me, and I’ve had more compliments than ever!"
Angela,
"A Fresh Style
Without Starting Over"
"I thought I needed to buy a whole new wardrobe, but Pensy helped me make the most of what I had. She spotted the pieces that weren’t working because of colour or cut, and suggested just a few key additions. Understanding what suits me made it so much easier to let go of the clutter — and I love my new, refreshed style!"
Virginia,
"Confidence, Style, and a Fresh Flair for Life"
"Pensy absolutely knows her stuff! She inspires confidence, style, and a fresh flair for life. With an unmatched eye for detail, she brings out the best in you — helping you discover new colour, style, and inner confidence. Her passion, high skill, and precision have not only inspired me but so many others to step fully into who they were meant to be."

"A Lifeline During a Career Crossroads"
"After quitting my job to travel and volunteer, I found myself lost and unsure of how to transition to a new career path. I struggled with stress, confusion, and low self-confidence, facing 'imposter syndrome.' Pensy offered free coaching during my unemployment, helping me navigate not only my career but my personal growth as well. Thanks to her guidance, I gained the clarity and confidence I needed to start my own freelance business. Pensy’s dedication to her clients, even without financial gain, shows how deeply she cares about helping others succeed."
Annet,
"I felt like shopping with a long-time friend — relaxed, fun, full of laughter, zero judgment"
I had the most incredible day with Pensy. We started with a full colour and style analysis, which was eye-opening and so empowering, and then headed out shopping. What truly impressed me was how quickly she understood me — not just my style goals, but my preference for recycled fashion. Without hesitation, she took me to the biggest second-hand clothing shop in the Waikato, and together we built an entirely fresh, cohesive wardrobe that feels authentic, flattering and completely “me”.
Colleen,
"Embracing My Body
and Style"
Pensy helped me love my body as it is. She showed me how to style what I already owned, making me feel slimmer and more confident. I didn’t have to buy a whole new wardrobe—just added a few key pieces and received countless compliments!”
Tracey,
"Confidence for a New Beginning"
Pensy helped me find the perfect wardrobe for my new job. For the first time, I received a compliment from a complete stranger on my outfit! She helped me choose the right style, colours, and deals—highly recommend Pensy Style!
Chani,
"A Fun and Transformative Colour Party Experience"
We had such a fun and empowering time at Pensy’s Colour & Style Party! My friends and I discovered our perfect colours, played with outfits and makeup — and left feeling fabulous. Even my 72‑year‑old mum gained new confidence, and a teen in our group walked away glowing. Pensy’s advice helped us refresh our wardrobes without needing to buy everything new. It was lively, insightful — and truly uplifting.”
Trish ACE Student
"A real boost — I rediscovered my true style and confidence.”
"Attending Pensy’s Style & Confidence Workshop at Fraser ACE was a game‑changer. The session was so much more than a styling class — it blended style advice with self‑esteem and body‑confidence coaching. I walked away with practical tools, real understanding of what suits me, and a refreshed mindset. It wasn’t just about clothes; it was about feeling good in my skin. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a confidence boost."

"Inclusive, empowering —
perfect for our diverse team."
We invited Pensy to lead a style‑and‑confidence session for our team — people of all ages and backgrounds — and the response was overwhelming. Her presentation felt inclusive, empowering and relevant. Staff left feeling renewed purpose, more confident and seen. Great for schools, workplaces or groups wanting meaningful impact."

"A Gift That Changed
More Than Her Wardrobe"
​
'I gave my mum a style session with Pensy for Mother’s Day, and it was the best gift I’ve ever given her. She’s always done everything for everyone else — this was finally something just for her. Pensy helped her rediscover her spark, feel beautiful again, and enjoy getting dressed in the morning. It wasn’t just a makeover; it was a confidence boost that touched her deeply. I saw my mum walk taller, smile more, and feel proud of who she is."

Jo,
"A Gift I Didn’t Know I Needed"
"My daughters gave me a voucher with Pensy for my birthday — I honestly didn’t know what to expect. I would have never bought something like this for myself, but I’m so glad they did. From the first consultation to shopping together, Pensy helped me rediscover my confidence, update my style, and feel like me again. I left feeling chic, comfortable, and proud of how I look. It was more than a makeover — it was a gift of self-worth. Thank you to my girls for thinking of something so thoughtful."​​

"We gave our mum a gift voucher to go shopping with Pensy for her birthday — and it was the best present ever! Pensy completely refreshed her look, blending chic and sporty in a way that made Mum feel stylish and seen. She was glowing, and we were thrilled. Mum loved it so much she’s now booked a wardrobe reboot to complete the transformation. Seeing her this happy and confident was the real gift."
