**I always come back to relaxed tailoring with a bit of a tomboy edge.** I’m happiest in jeans, a men’s-style shirt, an oversized blazer or a big coat. I need clothes that let me move, feel comfortable and look effortless at the same time. Neutrals are my foundation, and every now and then I’ll add a bit of colour. I don’t gravitate towards dresses, tight silhouettes or anything overtly sexy – structure and ease are what make me feel like myself.

**Trends only interest me if they work with what I already love.** I’ve always been drawn to that unfussy, masculine-leaning Paris-meets-New-York vibe – think Emmanuelle Alt’s ease mixed with Lauren Hutton’s polished nonchalance. I like pieces that age well – great denim, beautiful tailoring, classic shirts and boots you can actually walk in.

**I’ve always been confident with my style.** I was a total tomboy growing up and constantly borrowed my dad’s jackets. That instinct never left me. My confidence really came from realising I look and feel my best when I dress for my own life. I’m tall, I walk everywhere and I need clothes that work with me, not against me. The moment I stopped forcing myself into things that weren’t very “me”, everything clicked. My style has been consistent ever since.

**Clean, uncomplicated pieces are what I gravitate towards most.** For me, minimal dressing comes alive through shape, proportion and texture. Oversized tailoring, great denim, a men’s shirt with a lived-in feel, a big coat – then maybe a subtle check or a Fair Isle knit to break things up. I tend to stick to neutrals but a flash of red can completely shift the mood. When the fit and quality are right, even the simplest outfit feels more intentional.

My wish list is full of [Loulou Studio](https://www.louloudesaison.com/en-gb?srsltid=AfmBOooMNdaAtiufBo7llBpLTXkgbIuZ58vd3ybQ987f48TXYjexLR3q), [Khaite](https://khaite.com/?srsltid=AfmBOooIAT080V0WmBTZzF_KVN2f0fCyVjcQzOFvK72UKlnV4nFHR1jk) and [Rohé](https://roheframes.com/en-uk).

**Chasing trends dilutes your personal style.** The magic happens when you know what works for you and build from there. If a trend fits into your style, great. If it doesn’t, leave it. Dressing becomes easier and you end up looking confident – not like you’re trying too hard to be “of the moment”.

**A great coat is my forever essential.** It has to be long, with enough shoulder room for layering. I want something with presence that still feels effortless – something you can throw over anything and instantly look put together. And I’m always wrapped in a huge scarf at this time of year. I love a big one that can double up as a blanket when I’m travelling.

**I always start with the trousers or jeans – they set the tone.** In winter, I slip into a kind of uniform: jeans, boots, a great sweater, a long coat and a big scarf. It’s reliable but still feels considered. Once the base is there, I tweak proportions or textures depending on how I feel. It takes the stress out of getting dressed.

**Invest in a Chelsea boot, a great coat and a strong pair of sunglasses this winter.** Boots anchor an outfit – they’re practical, chic and go with everything. I love mine from [LEGRES](http://legres.net/). Sunglasses also finish a look, even in winter. They’re the quickest shortcut to looking polished. I wear my [Alaïa](https://www.maison-alaia.com/en-gb/cat/gifting/?utm_source=google&utm_source_platform=SA360&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=A-AALHQ-UK-EN-BR_BRAND_PURE_EXACT-BRST-FY25-MTP-MULTIPLE_COLLECTIONS-SN-AUC-PU-LXA-GG-BR-RICEMVS1XFZ&utm_id=11083454829&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=11083454829&gbraid=0AAAAACPkAuIZJTqftDqpjY72Vnn9T2iiV&gclid=Cj0KCQiAosrJBhD0ARIsAHebCNoVfU_mU2LllDfHemWS1NR4QC4DtlUGY22YUH78h_5vTzMV3Gc62PsaAq3eEALw_wcB) ones constantly.

**Kate Moss will always be my style icon.** She’s a built-in style compass for so many of us: instinctive, cool, effortless. On Instagram, I follow [Josefine Jensen](https://www.instagram.com/josefinejean/?hl=en-gb). She does that Scandi minimalism with just the right amount of opulence – polished but never precious.

**Minimal style becomes so much more interesting when there’s one focal point**. That can be an unexpected texture, an unusual silhouette, a saturated accessory or a sculptural earring. Keep the base familiar, then let one detail shift the whole conversation. It’s about contrast, not clutter.

**I naturally gravitate towards neutrals**. When I want to shift the mood, I reach for red, burgundy or army green. They behave like elevated neutrals – rich but grounded. I treat colour as an accent: one piece that stands out against a quiet backdrop. It keeps the look cohesive but gives it personality.

**For date night, it’s all about elevating familiar silhouettes**. A sharp jacket with great trousers and a heel is my go-to – relaxed but polished. For bigger events, I love a tuxedo. It’s timeless and confident. I’m also drawn to head-to-toe white or cream, especially in interesting textures. And in winter, velvet is my weakness. Accessories always do the heavy lifting – they can transform even the simplest look.

**I will always shop on the high street**. It’s that balance of practicality and discovery. You can find genuinely great pieces that work in a real wardrobe without the pressure of a big investment. The high street is perfect for testing ideas – a new proportion, a fresh colour, a fabric you’re curious about. And sometimes you come across those unexpectedly brilliant pieces that become real workhorses.

**High-street cashmere is where it’s at.** H&amp;M’s premium line does a brilliant cashmere blend jumper every year – I buy it in multiple colours. The prima cotton turtlenecks are staples for me too. I also bulk-buy the [Topshop](https://topshopperformance.sjv.io/Z69qjX) premium white tees – they’re thick and perfectly boxy. And high-street denim can be fantastic – especially Zara; when it gets a fit right, it’s so spot on

**ARKET is having a moment right now.** I found an incredible velvet overshirt that I’d been searching for forever. COS is also brilliant for evening; the shapes always feel architectural and refined. And H&amp;M has really surprised me – especially its tuxedo trousers. If you size up, the silhouette becomes instantly chic.

**Always look at fabrication and fit.** Fabrication is key – natural fibres, weighty blends, dense knits, cottons that hold their structure. Finishing matters too: clean stitching, proper hems, good hardware. And proportions are everything. Classic cuts with a subtle twist age beautifully. I buy high-street pieces deliberately and with consideration, the same way I would anywhere else.

**Finally, shop the men’s section – it’s one of my best hacks.** The fabrics are often better and the cuts naturally give you that effortless oversized silhouette. Tailoring is another game-changer. Small adjustments can make a huge difference. It’s all about intentional proportions and thoughtful textures.
