Spree with Me founder Imogene Whittle says: “Our goal was to create a marketplace of personal stylists to teach women how to dress and be confident while supporting local designers.”
Imogene says it's a service she has wanted in the past while on holidays. “I hate getting stuck in the tourist traps when on holidays, and I have thought how wonderful it would be to meet a like-minded local to guide me and to introduce me to local designers, and show me the unique boutiques in the area.”
