English Version | Mirror, Mirror on the wall

As children, it was often our mothers who had the (difficult) role of choosing what we were going to wear and, although we didn't always agree with their choices, this was a concern that wasn't on our to-do list. The years have passed and today there are inevitable doubts that haunt our mornings: from “I don't know what to wear”, to “I wonder if this pattern is still popular”, including the classic “I love these jeans but I don't know if they suit me”. If we can't have a mother who advises us twenty-four hours a day (if we didn't value her as children, today we'd give anything for her advice), perhaps the ideal would be to have a stylist who lives inside our closet to help us with these indecisions on the spot. For the time being, this wish cannot yet be granted - at least for common mortals - but there is a solution that can make everyday life easier and is just a shopping center away.

With these questions in mind, and knowing that they are common to most women, NorteShopping and CascaiShopping have teamed up to create the A Moda ao seu Serviço (Fashion at Your Service) initiative, with specialists ready to answer all the questions that plague us. Through image consultancy, with closet makeovers that consider the style and colour palette best suited to each of us, the professional stylists promise an exclusive and personalized experience that will make fashion dilemmas a thing of the past.

The initiative promoted by these shopping centers includes, in addition to image consulting, personal shopping sessions, coloring consultations and image teleconsultations. At NorteShopping the program runs from April 19 to June 9 and at CascaiShopping from April 19 to June 2, with times varying depending on the service chosen. Bookings can be made via the app by selecting the “book fashion services” icon and voilà, a one-click makeover awaits. The program with all the details and timetables can be found on the respective centers' websites.
