Q&A
You never leave home without…
A notepad and pen, hairbrush and water bottle.
What inspires and influences your style?
At the moment I am quite inspired by old Hollywood actresses such as Elizabeth Taylor, Lauren Bacall and Audrey Hepburn. It wasn’t who they were wearing, but how they wore it, with such poise and grace.
What are three basics you must always have?
A leather jacket from All Saints, Rag & Bone jeans and Marc Jacobs sunglasses.
How would you describe your personal style?
Simple and edgy. In my day to day life I’m not a girly girl, I love over sized t-shirts, lots of leather and a good pair of boots.
You always splurge on, and you always save on…
I splurge on bags…It’s a real problem. Strangely, I save on shoes.
Your fashion spirit animal would be?
I think I would be a giraffe because I’m tall and awkward, but man, do I love pulling off a print!
What is your favourite outfit you have ever worn?
Probably a black and white striped ‘Nicholas’ dress I wore to the BAFTA tea party recently. I rocked it with a red lip and felt so old Hollywood chic.
Your fashion motto is…
Your style represents who you are as a person…don’t try to be someone you’re not.
You #1style tip is…
Never take your heels off when your feet hurt…it’s never a good look!
