The most surreal feeling. But so, so good! 🥰

They’re finally here. After two years of work, planning, writing, editing and (impatiently 🥴😂) waiting, my second book YOU DON’T NEED MORE CLOTHES is finally in front of me and in my hands. 🥳

It’s such a special moment and I can’t quite believe it, especially as a few years ago I wasn’t sure whether I’d ever write anything again. Let alone a new book.

Thank you so much to everyone who has already pre-ordered the book or supported me along the way. It means so, so much.

Next job, to get all of your lovely copies signed… ✍️😂❤️

YOU DON’T NEED MORE CLOTHES. Out 12th September. Pre-orders are open. Link in my bio.

THINGS I HAVE LEARNT FROM MY STYLING CLIENTS...

Since graduating as a personal stylist with the London College of Style back in 2020, I have worked with the most incredible women on their personal style.

Whether it's been helping them to discover their best colours or working with them on their wardrobes, I can hand on heart say that it's been an absolute pleasure to meet such brilliant, funny, clever, kind, wise and beautiful women.

I don't know why - I'm lucky I guess! - but I always seem to have attracted the best women to work with and for that, I'm incredibly grateful.

Hopefully over the years, I've taught my clients a thing or too. But one thing, I've never really mentioned until now is how much my clients - indeed many of you perhaps even reading this - have also taught me.

So here goes...

Working with hundreds of women on their personal style has taught me that:

Style isn't really about the clothes. It's about confidence, identity, self-expression, self-love, how we see ourselves and also, how we want to be seen.

I've learned that many of us are own harshest critics, when we should really be our own best friends.

I've learned that many of us cannot see our own beauty and that we carry around stories that others have created about us, instead of creating our very own.

I've learned that when a woman really wants to change, absolutely nothing can stop her. Such is the force of the feminine.

I've learned that when women help each other and truly connect, truly anything is possible.

I've learned that sometimes it's not the clothes that are the problem, it's how someone feels about themselves or has been made to feel.

I've learned that often it's the little things that can have the biggest impact. A beautiful colour that enhances a woman's eyes. A simple French truck. An unexpected pairing.

I've learned that every single woman wants to be appreciated and loved for who they are. To be truly seen and valued.

I've learned that there is no cookie cutter formula to looking good. (And thank heavens for that!)

That we are all different and that figuring out our own unique authentic style is where the magic really happens.

Whether you're cool or classic, eccentric or feminine, loud or quiet, bold or shy, personal style belongs to EVERYONE, regardless of age, size, job role or budget. And that the really fun part is that you get to make it your own. (Always.)

Six years of styling, hundreds of clients and I'm still learning!

So to all of you whom I've had the pleasure of working with and getting to know - if you've ever trusted me with your wardrobe, getting your colours done or simply helping you to make the most of what god has given you, I just wanted to take a moment to also say THANK YOU so much.

Working with women on their style has and will continue to be always a privilege, teaching me more than you'll ever really know.

THANK YOU!!! 😘 I'm back from our final holiday in France and just wanted to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to to those of you who have already pre-ordered my new book 'You Don't Need More Clothes' and for those of you who have been in touch to wish me well with it.

It really is so, so appreciated. ☺️

Pre-orders are absolutely critical to a book's success and make an enormous difference to the visibility of a book in the publishing world (which is notoriously hard and competitive) so every pre-order that comes in, is special.

As an author with an independent publisher, it means ever so much so thank you.

If you haven't had a chance yet to pre-order a copy of my new book, but would like to, there is still time.

You can order your copy here. 👇Plus, as a special thank you, you'll also get a limited edition gift too with the book.

Finally, I'd be so grateful if you could help me share news of the book far and wide. A quick like, comment or share costs nothing, but really does make a difference in helping me to reach more people on social media.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. 😘

📚 I’m so excited to share that pre-orders for my new book, You Don’t Need More Clothes, are now open! ✨

This book has been such a personal project for me and a real labour of love.

It’s everything I believe and have experienced about authentic personal style. It’s about understanding what makes you feel like you, rather than constantly feeling that the answer is to buy something new.

Because great style really isn’t about buying or owning more. It’s about knowing yourself, trusting your instincts and making the most of what you already have.

If you’d like to support the book early, pre-orders are now open.

Plus, as a little thank you, there’s a special limited edition free gift included with every pre-order too. ✨

It would mean so much to me to have your support at this stage and I really can’t wait for you to have the book in your hands.

Pre-order your copy now. ☺️🤍👇
