A Few of My Favourite Things

My Energy
Fun, confident and naturally flirty. I love good conversation, playful chemistry and someone who knows how to make me laugh. I’m genuinely happy doing almost anything with the right company — although I do have a soft spot for someone who can make a good plan. The best dates are thoughtfully planned with just enough room for a little spontaneity along the way.

In My Everyday Life
I’m a very social girl, so you’ll usually find me spending time with friends, cooking a feast for everyone or heading out for a long walk. On a normal day, there’s probably a Pilates class somewhere in the mix, alongside studying, working and quietly building towards some pretty big goals for my future.

I love keeping my mind stimulated and always having something to work towards — but I’m equally devoted to good food, good company and an unapologetically long sleep-in when I get the chance.

My Style
Very much girl next door at heart and usually down for whatever the day brings. That said, I love an excuse to dress up. Give me a beautiful dress, heels, my signature polished makeup and somewhere fabulous to wear it all, and I’m very happy.

I love being relaxed and effortless during the day, then getting completely dressed up for you at night.

At the Table
Food is one of the quickest ways to my heart. Japanese will always be a favourite — sushi and sashimi are very much my love language — but I’m equally happy with an amazing steak or discovering simple, delicious dishes from cuisines all over the world.

Add champagne, beautiful surroundings, plenty of conversation and a dinner that somehow turns into hours, and you’ve pretty much perfected my evening.

Little Luxuries
Pink or red roses, delicate gold jewellery, beautiful lace lingerie and a gorgeous fragrance will always make me smile.

My fragrance taste leans floral, warm and a little intoxicating. Louis Vuitton Les Sables Roses and Jo Malone Red Hibiscus are favourites, alongside Maison Francis Kurkdjian Oud Satin Mood, Parfums de Marly Delina Exclusif and Frédéric Malle Portrait of a Lady.

I have a weakness for thoughtful details — especially something you chose simply because it made you think of me.

Dream Cities
Tokyo for the food. Paris for the romance. New York for the energy. Monaco for a little glamour. Italy for long lunches, beautiful coastlines and la dolce vita. Greece for whitewashed islands, endless blue water and dinners by the sea.

And perhaps most exciting of all? Somewhere completely new that neither of us has experienced before.

Dream Stays
Aman Tokyo overlooking the city. Hôtel de Paris Monte-Carlo for a glamorous little escape. The Ritz Paris or Cheval Blanc for a few indulgent days in Paris.

Or forget the city altogether and put us in an overwater bungalow in the Maldives, with nothing around us but you, me and the ocean.

My Kind of Escape
Barefoot on a tropical island one week, dressed up somewhere fabulous in a new city the next. I love beautiful hotels, long dinners, room-service mornings and having the time to actually enjoy where we are.

My favourite thing when I land in a new city is to drop my bags, put on something comfortable and just start walking. No strict itinerary — exploring little streets, finding hidden spots, stopping somewhere that catches our eye and getting a feel for the city as we go.

I love having a beautiful plan waiting for us that evening, but leaving the day open enough to see where it takes us.

The Dream Date?
Take me somewhere beautiful, have a plan, order the champagne and make me laugh. Then leave just enough room for us to change our minds, stay for another drink or end up somewhere we never planned on going.

The best dates are the ones we’re still talking about long after we’ve checked out.
