style twists classic
Eclectic yet classic with a playful bohemian twist is how Id describe my style.
fashion thinking elegance
I think fashion can always date, but I think if a woman has elegance, she doesnt date.
antiques pieces favourite
My favourite finds are often antique pieces with a history.
beautiful thinking clothes
Lingerie is my next love after clothing; I think it is what is worn underneath that really inspires a woman to feel beautiful in her clothes - that inner, secret glamour.
morning eggs oil
I get up between 6:30 and 7 A.M., and my morning routine is always the same: hot water and lemon, eggs on toast and rose oil on the face.
clothes mood
Clothes can transform your mood and confidence.
healthy trying care
I try to take care of myself, and I lead a healthy lifestyle.
secret lingerie glamour
Lingerie is that inner, secret glamour.
morning morning-person persons
I'm a morning person, really alert.
heritage stay-true brands
You have to stay true to your heritage; that's what your brand is about.
ripped school sorts
I was always in trouble at school for what I was wearing; I was never made a prefect because of the way I used to dress - I ripped my tights, my skirts were too short, all sorts of things.
buying haunts love markets specific usual
I love trawling through markets and vintage shops, and I make super-quick decisions about buying clothes. I also have my usual haunts I go to when in specific cities.
behave cut home industry known people pieces
I don't think many people would think I'm a designer. I behave in a different way. I'd get knocked down and cut to pieces if I went home and flounced about; this industry is known for the flounciness, but I've got my feet on the ground.
cutting drawing hours knew room sit trouble
I always knew I wanted to create. I used to sit in my room for hours drawing and making things. I once got into trouble for cutting up my mother's lampshades to make a dress. I was three.
