Jamie Oliver's books are the best. I love Jamie. Bless him!

For special occasions, I love pretty dresses - but nothing too frou-frou!

Knitwear can play a vital part in layering. The simplicity of a lightweight cardigan makes it one of the best ways to layer outfits. I love granddad cardis for winter, worn over a vintage lace shirt, waistcoat and full skirt with slouchy boots.

I love how Jamie Oliver makes seasonal, local foods in a rustic way, without a lot of fuss.

I've always loved life, and I've never known what's ahead. I love not knowing what might be round the corner. I love serendipity.

I love exercise, but I find it boring doing the same thing all the time, so I fluctuate between going to the gym, doing Pilates, and taking dance lessons.
