FFF LOVES… her quirky and colourful jewellery collections.
What are your staples?
Black leggings, colourful tops and sparkly shoes.
What are your indulgences?
My favourite indulgence is my orange and black Gucci Hobo bag and my Matthew Williamson purple coat with bright pink stitching. I can’t wait until winter to wear it again. My third indulgence are shoes — all shoes: heels, flats, boots. A friend calls my spare room The Shoe Room. So true!
What can’t you live without?
Colour. I very rarely wear all black. Also jewellery.
What is past its use-by-date?
A lot of my wardrobe as I’m a hoarder. My mother had amazing clothes that I would wear today had she not thrown them out. I’d like to keep my precious clothes for my future daughter.
What is your wardrobe craving?
Paul and Joe has the most amazing purple backless dress with silver adornments on the shoulders. It is divine but I am on a self imposed spending ban for a few months!
