The beginning

I've been fortunate to do a lot of things in my life. I've lived on 2 continents, I've seen poor people begging on the street as well as the rich in their luxurious homes.  I've worked 2 jobs concurrently and in a lot of different fields; retail, hair modelling(if you know me, you'll realise the irony of that), telemarketing (yes, I was one of those people that called you up in the middle of dinner to ask you if you wanted to renew your Vodafone contract ;) ).

I was also fortunate enough to attend University (first girl in my family to actually complete a degree) and even started my own multiple location business.  These things weren't easy and I learnt a lot of things along the way. Each experience, each event, each twisty turn added something to my personality and oddly my sense of style.

I went from geek to sophisticated woman. It wasn't easy and it wasn't even something deliberate but something organic. If I dressed a certain way people spoke to me differently and treated me differently. I learnt quickly that dressing well got you more respect and attention.

Having worked in the fashion industry for 10 years, you learn a thing or two. Mainly what looks good. And what doesn't. But that also comes from a personal sense of style. Everyone should know what their style is and what makes them look good. That's where I come in
