My guest this time is Erica Davies - a former fashion editor who has worked with some of the UK’s biggest newspapers, magazines and brands…She founded the hugely popular blog the-edited.com and now has an audience of more than 200,000 followers on Instagram. She’s passionate about encouraging women to make bold, confident and happiness-inducing choices through their clothing and interiors, and her most recent book, Style Chapters, was published earlier this year…and would make a fab Christmas present if you still have any friends or family members to buy for!
We talk about
- where the inspiration for the book came from
- Erica’s advice for changing body shapes in midlife and rethinking what might have worked for us before but doesn't now
- Insider fashion editor tips for figuring out what is flattering - for example for anyone feeling ‘tummy-self-conscious’
- Her advice for getting out of a 'style funk'
- Getting the best out of second hand/preloved shopping
- Tips for staying chic whilst dressing to cope with menopause symptoms
- Dopamine dressing and being more playful with our fashion choices for increasing our confidence
- And just for fun, Erica’s three ‘Desert Island Dresses’ that she’d pick if she could only keep three…
