I would love to go to Italy, either Capri or Tuscany and I'm taking the Blue Goddess, Lovette and the feather dress.
What advice would you give to someone wanting to start a fashion business?
If you are looking to start your own fashion brand go for it and don't be scared to fail. You will learn more from the lessons that come with failure than the successes.

Probably the Lovette, its just the ultimate forever summer dress!

Spring Flower by Creed is such a beautiful scent, we are so lucky to be doing an in-store collab with them, all their scents are gorgeous, love the NARS mascara and Gimme Brow by Benefit.
