Who/what inspires your style?
In the past few weeks off duty models have definitely influenced what I have bought and looked for in the shops. Models like Freja Beha Erichsen, Irina Lazareanu and Lily Donaldson are totally along the lines of my kind of style. Other than that I spend hours on various blogs looking at other peoples outfits and where they find inspiration. I have to say my biggest inspiration of this year is rock and roll- It's so easy to move from a very laid back, basic look to ultra glamorous and yet they are equally as effective. I just try to avoid any throwing of t.v's out of hotel windows!
Do you find your style changes a lot?
I would not say it changes a lot. I've worn skinnies with a t-shirt/vest and boots for the longest time now most days. I guess it depends how lazy or bothered I'm feeling when I wake up-sometimes it will be a lot sloppier, sometimes it will be dressier. I am one of those people who is always wearing some variant of the same style outfit, just in different shades of grey!!
Do you have any favourite styles?
Aside from the obvious of my own personal style influences, I do like the vintage-esque kind of androgynous look that some girls take on. The Fearne Cotton/Alexa Chung kind of style. it would never work on me but I definitly appreciate it. I actually really like it when girls are the complete opposite of my style too-ultra feminine , very dainty looking-It is always so charming to see when its done properly.

Who are your ultimate fashion icons?
Going to take this answer as people in the industry who are icons for who they are and what they do and have achieved. Emmanuelle Alt, whose personal style is impeccable and is also such an amazing stylist. Just look at any Isabel Marant and Balanciaga show of late. Hedi Slimane who single handedly revolutionised modern day menswear with Dior Homme.

Finally ..How important is fashion to you?
Fashion is the singlemost significant part of my life. I eat breathe and sleep it. It is my career ..it determines the outcome of so many choices I make- if I did not have fashion I do not think I would have anything.
