I think a very common misconception about we beauty editors is that we simply absorb information from brands and regurgitate it. What ever happened to good journalism? is a question I find raised on social media all too regularly. Often, people feel betrayed by beauty editors, especially when you’ve parted with your hard-earned cash to buy […]
Suffice to say; I have a pretty big thing for shoes. A fashion editor who loves shoes? Go figure! But out of all the items you can decorate your wardrobe with, shoes are the piece that I find the hardest to resist. Sizing is seldom an issue with shoes, for one, and eleven years into […]
Once we hit the March 1 milestone, mentally, I left winter behind and went full throttle into spring. Even if the weather takes some time to catch up, it’s never too early to be experimenting with your new-season looks, and I’ve been putting in the hours, refining my wardrobe for spring so that you can […]
If you were to ask any fashion person what the most iconic British coat is, they will no doubt say the camel Burberry trench coat. Loved, and worn by everyone including Kate Moss, Sienna Miller and Alexa Chung, the coat dating back to 1869 deserves its crown. Now, every fashion house creates iterations each season, and […]

I love a versatile and rotational staple like this, and as we slowly make our way into spring, it’s the perfect […]
I might not have much in common with Katie Holmes, but we are the same height (5’9″), so I have a feeling she could relate to my neverending quest to find flats that are actually cute. But tall girls are far from the only people who want the practicality of flats without sacrificing style. French girls like Leia […]
As an editor, it’s my job to be impartial about the fashion I showcase to you. Not everything is necessarily something I would personally wear—I’ve been trained to look beyond that; to instead seek out impressive finds that’ll work for different people and styles. This is perhaps the biggest difference between editors and influencers—a question […]
The best leather jackets can be found in many places. They are the ultimate jacket for looking super cool when you need to take your outfit from zero to 100. Not only does such a key piece journey with you, looking good no matter what the trend climate may dictate, but the right one will also […]
At this time of the year, many of us overhaul various areas of our lives. Spring cleaning now applies to everything, from our homes and wardrobes through to our emotional boundaries and social media follows, and there’s something about the warmer weather and gloriously long(er) days that brings out the urge for pro-active change.
