I started my own fashion magazine when I was ten years old and although circulation was limited, it showed an inherent passion for writing and for fashion. I studied in Florence during my GAP year where my ambitions for a career in fashion were consolidated somewhere between the Prada boutique and Italian Vogue. So, my University dissertation traced the aesthetic development of fashion photography and I continue to hoard books on the subjects of design and photography.
Upon leaving university, I began a four-month internship at The Times, under Lisa Armstrong and Carolyn Asome in the fashion department, where I had my own beauty pages. From then on I worked consistently at a selection of regional and international titles, as well as doing freelance beauty and fashion writing, both online and in print. I have also worked as beauty editor for a number of titles, a role that I am equally ardent about, and have acted as a fashion consultant and writer for a number of retail websites.
I now work as Fashion Co-ordinator at Vogue.
