When I was on tour in Australia and New Zealand late last year, my last stop before coming back to London was Sydney. I’m used to my haircut clients arriving ridiculously well dressed and I often have serious envy over their beautiful outfits. But one of my absolute […]
I’ve always loved feminine, lacy lingerie and in the last couple of months, I’ve really enjoyed getting a little bit more adventurous during photoshoots and shooting more lingerie sets. My most recent photoshoot was with Tigz Rice for UK brand Harlow & Fox. Harlow & Fox are a […]
