Big and bold
“I love wearing bold patterns, it’s such an easy way to make a statement – and more wearable than you think, particularly if you keep the tones muted. These pieces are two of my favourites: they’re both head-turning in their own way, but if you’re not a top-to-toe print kind of person, then the shirt worn with jeans is perfect.”

Autumnal tones
“I love the more tonal colour palette of autumn and this skirt and dress show it off perfectly. The dress is a gorgeous, traditional mix of russet orange and black whereas the skirt’s rich jewelled tones are a beautiful 2019 update. Also, for anyone who thinks they’re too curvy for slip skirts – I did too until I tried this one on. Man, was I wrong! Just goes to show it’s worth trying everything. You never know when you’ll find something incredible.”
