A few weeks ago, Farfetch asked me to share a woman who had inspired me. To celebrate International Woman’s Day, I decided to share how Audrey Hepburn has inspired not only my style but my confidence. I remember I watched Roman Holiday with my parents and was immediately enamoured by Audrey. Through the years, I delved further into her chic style but also into her life. If there was ever a woman who showed you that you could have it all, she was it. I share more about this in my interview with Farfetch, which you can read here.

I loved the way Audrey styled gingham, a pattern that I also adore. I knew I had to incorporate it into my style. She was also the queen of monochrome dressing, so, of course, I kept my look black and white. Add a pair of movie star glasses, and I felt as glamorous as she was.

It would be crazy for me to write this post about a woman who inspired me without addressing what has happened in the world this week. We started the week celebrating women worldwide, which was quickly followed by the unfortunate and heartbreaking news of Sarah Everard in the UK. Most recently, I’ve been shocked and horrified by the attack on 8 Asian American women in Atlanta. This has really highlighted for me how it’s not just about taking style inspiration from the women I look up to, but strength and courage as well. Call out your friends and family, educate yourself and others, and most important speak up, because we are all strong women, and we are in this together.

Welcome Back to The Silk Sneaker

I’m baaaack.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the last time I popped on here to say hello may have been.. November of 2020? Much like everything else in the year that shall not be named, things were sporadic, uncertain and there was a lot of soul searching, 30 second dance routines and bread baking from the confines of our homes. (You can hear “I’m a savage…” playing in the distance as the soundtrack to this part of the post). But here we are, a new year, a new season and things are finally starting to feel better.

This is the part of the post where we all touch wood, say a prayer, and send the good vibes out there. 

I went on a bit of a journey this last year, with my Instagram, my presence online and what I wanted to share with you all. In many ways it brought me back to the same place that I was when I first started my blog. To inspire and create a community of global women through a personal lens on style, while creating a beautiful everyday. So here I am, back again, ready to share, but this time while being unapologetically myself. Some would say that is great progress 😛

So, stay tuned for lots of style inspiration, while I share what’s happening over here in London at TSS HQ, while also trying to figure out why Gen Z’s don’t like the 😂 emoji or Harry Potter. Some mysteries may never be solved I guess. 

Welcome back to The Silk Sneaker.

Now officially a Mrs!
