Where do you go for fashion inspiration?
I go to Pinterest because there are so many different options on there and it gives me lots of ideas. You search for one thing and it leads to so many other suggestions. I use Pinterest for fashion inspiration as well as home décor inspiration. I literally spend so much time scrolling through it!
Who is your celebrity fashion crush?
My celebrity fashion crush is Sarah Ashcroft because she has so many different looks and I have been following her for a few years now. When I see her styling clothes that I would not usually go for I actually end up loving it because of the way she styles it. Clothes that have been styled well by someone give a completely different look than seeing it just hanging on a clothes hanger.
What are your current daily outfits like?
Because of lockdown things have changed so I go from wearing comfy tracksuits all day to fully dressing up in different outfits like skirts and leather jeans with heels. I’ve recently been ordering a lot of different styles of tops like cut out ones that are super short. I like trying to make a big change to an outfit with a small difference. To be honest though through lockdown comfy clothes are definitely the way to go.
How would you describe your personal style?
My personal style is really different and there isn’t one particular look that I go for all the time. I’m a mix of trainers and heels I love both and could never choose which I prefer. I am the same with my outfits I love tracksuits as well as going out dresses and skirts. I think having a mix of styles for different situations and events really works for me and I love the change. My favorite colors to wear at the moment are brown and beige. There are so many different tones within these colors so you have so many options.
How has your personal style been impacted by the pandemic?
Obviously, there is nowhere to go so I have not been dressing up as much as I would like to, I have been wearing more comfy clothes than before. Even though I have been ordering a lot of new clothes a lot of them have not made it out of the house yet. I have put so many different outfits together in my head that I want to wear out to certain places when lockdown is over.
If you could only wear one outfit for a week what outfit would that be?
If the outfit was based around the snowy weather, we have at the moment it would be a white fluffy coat with beige leather jeans. As well as a white pom pom hat and the mocha Jordan 1s I’d probably take white gloves because my fingers are always freezing off in the cold.
If you had to style an outfit inspired by West Sussex what would that outfit look like?
It would definitely be browns and neutral colors because the Ashdown Forest is based here and would be an inspiration In this area.
What’s the best fashion advice you’ve received and who was it from?
The best fashion advice I have received is from my friends when we talk about the outfits we love and it is to co ordinate something within your outfit to make the colours match, but you do not need to coordinate everything.
Do you have any personal fashion rules when putting an outfit together?
My fashion rule is that I only wear a thong because seeing a visible panty line is never a good thing! I also find them comfiest.
What’s been your most exciting moment since becoming an influencer?
I’m still building my following on my account but I am finding the most exciting thing is all the lovely comments from girls supporting me as this makes me really happy and feel confident.
