My latest pet portrait drawn in pastels of Molly, a 3 month old Jack Russell puppy. I chose this particular photo of Molly to copy as it was all about the look in her eye. It leads you in and shows her character. When I am commissioned to do a pet portrait I want to show the dog’s personality.
I get invited to many product launch parties, but as I prefer a few early nights, as I’m no longer in my 20’s or 30’s or 40’s……..!…but when I receive a launch party invite that is cryptic, I take interest.
My invite only told me that all will be revealed after (a men’s barber shop haircut if wished (obvs, if you are a man), cocktails, canapes and a sit down 3-course dinner cooked by a top chef before the big reveal, it seemed churlish not accept.
Well it’s Lynx, which has had a 33 year history of helping guys feel more attractive, in countries around the world.
It’s interesting that my own lifestyle business www.cerilcampbell.com and my book “Discover the New You” are all about helping men and women look and feel their best from inside out with confidence and individuality.
The same message as Lynx’s new campaign.
#Lynx #findyourmagic expansive new range of grooming products has a £13m campaign to give guys the tools to be their own person. To express their male individuality. This campaign champions male confidence, acceptance, and individuality. Lynx’s research showed that 9 out of 10 women find guys most attractive when they’re comfortable being themselves. But male perceptions of what makes them attractive are still shaped by outdated labels and expectations. Guys continue to feel huge pressure to appear to be that manly stereotype which affects their confidence. I’m not surprised that only 15% men in most countries feel they’re less attractive than they actually are.
I am quoted in this feature from the March issue of The City Magazine.
I believe you only get one chance to make a best first impression, so when presenting your property for high end rental, it is important to create best use of space and light in how you style and furnish it.
How you live day-to-day in your property may not offer exactly the lifestyle a One fine Stay guest rental imagines or aspires to.
Sometimes a de-clutter or a subtle re-style or tweak may make all the difference.

When Liberty X were runners up in 2001 on ITV’s “Popstars The Rivals ”
I was the 1st person to style and create a cohesive image for them to move forward in their music career as a chart topping band.
I worked together with them on their hairstyles, clothes and public image.
Here are how Liberty X looked before and after my 1st styling session

My beautiful Isle of Wight seaside house is featured in the August issue of “25 Beautiful Homes” magazine which is out now in July.
I have lovingly interior-styled this family home over the last few years, and completely re-designed the garden into a tropical oasis around the swimming pool and poolside cabins,
But the time has now come to sell up and move on and to find a new design and build project in Bembridge,IOW for my family and I to live in.
This property is also featured on Rightmove and Zoopla and Jenny Turnbull Estate agents

With the success of my Ceril Campbell, Style Your Life, lifestyle and celebrity style business spanning 30 years, where I created style transformations for A-list stars including Ringo Starr, Darcey Bussell CBE, Zara Phillips and Serena Williams and consulted for style projects to worldwide brands such as Sony, Schwarzkopf, Deloitte and the BBC, I found clients were asking me to add Interior design, Property build transformations and Home-staging to my lifestyle services. So I did!
The same design criteria apply in creating a stylish lasting first impression that wows.
Whether it’s for the actual client personally, or for their property.
Their home is an extension of their personality.
I like to understand clients’ lifestyle, budget, goals and aspirations.
Their requirements in what they wish to achieve with my expertise and within budget.
I work with proportion and balance, light and shade for a successful end result of best first impressions.
First impressions are all important.
The art of Illusion is also key.
Room interiors and body shape proportions both need clever tricks to enhance and disguise and create balance in designing the overall look and the final dressing.
North or South facing rooms, and our facial skin tones both require specific colour choices to reflect light and enhance.
I also take the following into consideration:
A property’s current value and likely end value before and after build or staging.
A property’s location. It is pointless to overspend on building works if the property value is capped, due to where it is situated.
I can improve a property’s value with a small or big transformation, according to budget and time,
working with an architect and builders on a design and build project
or
with an instant style makeover or simply a de-clutter.
or
with home staging, and creative use of furniture, furnishings, artwork and accessories,
I can make a dull space interesting, demonstrate how a large empty space can be divided into living areas, how a tired unloved ex-rental property can be shown to be once again to be a desirable comfortable family home that is attractive to buyers, at a premium price.
Home staging, furnishing and styling an empty property to sell, offers prospective purchasers a glimpse into how they could live in this property.
My transformations are never impersonal or formulaic, but offer warmth and individuality, showing an aspirational lifestyle appealing and targeted specifically to the likely property applicants in each area.
