I’m an author and award-winning journalist, writing about fashion, food, pop culture, travel, feminism and life, for people like Sunday Times Style, Grazia, Refinery29 UK, Cosmopolitan, Stylist, easyJet Traveller, Foodism, Delicious, The Telegraph and The Guardian.
My debut novel Preloved was published by Simon & Schuster in April 2023, and (as The Second Chance Store) in the US by William Morrow on in July 2023. My first book, What Would The Spice Girls Do? was published by Transworld in 2018, followed by How To Break Up With Fast Fashion, published by Headline in 2020. In 2021 I also contributed to This Is How We Come Back Stronger: Feminist Writers On Turning Crisis Into Change. I pop up semi-regularly on podcasts and radio, and occasionally on the telly.
I've also worked extensively as a commercial copywriter, for the likes of LEGO, Sainsbury's, River Cottage, The Flour Station, British Gas, Betty.me, RED Valentino, BBC, Channel 4, O2 Magazine and Tesco, on web copy, social media content and digital strategy. These days I focus on working with ethical and sustainable fashion and lifestyle brands.
From 2002 onwards I was a columnist for The Worthing Herald, which they were kind/desperate enough to let me carry on doing every week for 11 years.
If you'd like me to write anything for you, please drop me a line here or send a pigeon towards east London.
