I would describe my style as colourful and fun. I’m really into wearing bright pink at the moment, and I’m currently lusting after a pink oversized blazer by Jacquemus. 

Five things everyone should have in their wardrobe are some leather trousers, a good pair of boots that are both comfortable and stylish, a colourful bag to add some personality to your outfit, a great blazer and some fun heels. If I had to pick one though, it’d be the leather trousers. I couldn’t live without them and they go with anything bright. 

My favourite boots I’ve worn this season are an old By Malene Birger pair, which have been so practical this winter. However, I’ve still got my eye on the chunky Bottega Veneta boots…

Don’t be afraid to try out clashing colours – sometimes the ones that shouldn’t work really do.

Small brands I’m loving right now include Yuzefi for their bags, and another brand called Mach & Mach, which has a really pretty selection of blazers and dresses. 

My latest purchase was a pink Saks Potts coat – I wanted it for ages and finally got it on sale.

My tip for wearing brights is to start by sticking to one colour, and combine different shades. When you’re more confident, don’t be afraid to try out clashing colours – sometimes the ones that shouldn’t work really do, so experiment with different combinations. 

As much as I love colour, I prefer black for the evening. You can’t beat a black suit or little black dress to feel powerful and sexy – I usually add a red lip to complete the look.

My number one style rule is to have fun with what you wear. Try not to think about what others think is cool, and wear what makes you feel good, instead.

It’s important to have some great accessories. I’m a firm believer that you can never have too many pairs of shoes, and my favourites right now are some metallic pink heels from Zara. I’m also loving belts to add interest to my outfits, and I try to invest in designer handbags. My most expensive purchase was my Celine bag, but it was so worth it. 

One of my favourite brands is The Attico – I love following them on Instagram and want everything they create. For style inspo, I’m a big fan @styleheroine. Her images are always so creative. 

My number one style rule is to have fun with what you wear. Try not to think about what others think is cool, and wear what makes you feel good, instead. I like to tailor my pieces so they’re more personal, and also combine vintage with high street so my outfits feel more unique. For me, that’s what really makes great style.
