What you love about motherhood?
It is a love affair
What you love about your career?
It keeps me creative, challenged and thinking.
Your AW13 style picks…
For off-duty weekend wear? Shirt and trousers tucked into ankle boots – all by Chloe
For 9-5 chic? Sweatshirt, sheer skirt and mid-calf boots – all by Givenchy
Failsafe beauty products? YSL liquid eyeliner, YSL Babydoll Mascara and Bobbi

Brown brunette eyebrow pencil
Daily rituals that keep you balanced? Time with my son every morning, being a goofball.
Best family holiday? Patmos in Greece
Top hotel for weekend break without kids? Alfonso XIII in Seville
Your idea of blissful ’selfish’ time alone? A night out with the girls followed by sleeping in (partner takes over baby) followed by coffee in bed and a long hot bath.
