What kind of hostess are you? Are you very last minute or planned to the last detail?
I’m super organised, so ideally I like to plan, but equally I love a last-minute challenge!
How do you like to decorate your table? We imagine it is beyond chic!
I would like to think that I am a minimalist when it comes to decorating a table but having said that there’s nothing I love more than to go all-out and showcase more is more!

What do you like to wear when entertaining guests? Do you have a go-to uniform?
My go-to uniform for entertaining guests would be a tuxedo suit with statement jewellery to elevate the look.
What would be your go-to dish to cook if KOIBIRD came for dinner?
I make a mean roast potato, so probably a typical English Sunday roast chicken with all the trimmings!
Best styling advice you’ve ever been given?
Don’t overcomplicate or overthink your outfit!
If we looked in your handbag, what treats (or horrors!) would we find?
My Rodial Lip gloss and probably dog treats for my puppy Dolly!
Do you like a good book or prefer a podcast?
I LOVE a podcast!
Which podcast are you currently listening to?
On Purpose Jay Shetty
Not Perfect by Poppy Jamie
We Can Do Hard Things by Glennon Doyle
What’s your favourite restaurant of all time?
Nobu!
Where is your favourite place to go ‘out out’?
I don’t like clubs but I love nothing more than having a spicy margarita in the Ladder Shed at Chiltern firehouse
Name one place you’ve never been to but would like to visit.
I would love to go to Mexico and stay at Las Alamandas
Lastly, have you been naughty or nice this year?
Sadly my “naughty“ years are over!
