PUER DEORUM




puer deorum creations are my favourite discovery of 2020. their new approach to hats and accessories is really fresh. i discovered shop puer through fantastic toiles a beautifully curated shop by nasir in forest gate. fantastic toiles is already iconic and in my opinion the most authentic and exciting thing to come out of london for a long time.”

CLAIRE BARROW





don’t even get me started on claire barrow. claire is an incredible artist, innovator as well as being such a sweetheart. i love collecting claire’s unique designs from hand painted leather garments to hoodies and hair accessories. i stan <3”

ED MARLER





in my opinion ed is one of the most talented people i know. he designed all of my magdalene tour costumes and made the majority of my red carpet and glam looks in the magdalene era. ed has a unique talent to combine the old with the new. i don’t know how ed combines 17th century grandeur with his proud british working class upbringing but he does and it’s fabulous, it’s authentic and i’m so grateful to have worked so much with ed! you constantly inspire me, i love you!”

CONNOR JOSEPH







connor is my go to for unique and personalised accessories. so chic and refined. connor uses skin textures and body moulds to make the most beautiful jewellery!”

OTHER COUTURE




other couture has made all of my grills to date! handmade unique grill perfection! other couture can make all of your dreams come true from opals to black diamonds, so creative and beautiful! other couture almost gives michèle lamy a run for her money.

FANTASTIC TOILES




my favourite place in london. fantastic toiles is not just a shop it’s a hub of exciting new artists and a place where people can go feel a part of something. i adore nasir mazhar who founded fantastic toiles, i’ve worn his amazing creations for years.”

BODY BUTTER LADY



a real find. found this amazing black owned body butter company at a stall at a melrose market in la. the man at the stall explained that the shea butter was from senegal and was so pure you could eat it ha! i was sold and have been using it ever since.”

LIHA




my best friend suz put me onto this brand because it’s from cheltenham and hackney and that’s where immm frrommmm, both places, they are far apart whoaaa. coincidence. but actually, wow what amazing products i love their scents using tuberose and lovely natural oils. liha candles are so special they feel very magical and smell divine. black owned and full of the purest and most wonderful ingredients for your beautiful skinnn.”

HOUSE OF MATRIARCH



many of you have been patiently waiting for my magdalene perfume. a scent that i made with house of matriarch creator christi. christi’s scents are truly sublime, her knowledge of oils, spirituality and holistic medicines make her fragrances more of a day to day self love ritual than a lil spritz. i can’t wait for you to experience our magdalene fragrance it’s truly one of a kind.”

ORGANI GROW HAIR CO



this black owned hair company has been my saviour over the past couple of years. i never thought i would be able to experiment with my texture of hair and it stay healthy. but if you are wondering how i have been able to explore copper to bright orange to golden looks over the last two years and still have hair on my head, i owe it all to organi grow care! i initially found this company when i was recovering from fibroids. black girls need to be especially careful as a lot of our hair care products contain ingredients that are bad for our womb health. organic hair care is only full of natural ingredients, yay!”

SKIMDO




curl perfection for all curl patterns, this skimdo product is amazing and the method suggested when using this product can keep curls sweet for up to 4 days! it’s got a lovely fresh scent and although it holds my curls it’s remarkably light and not to oily. black owned and magical.”

one of my besties eloise found a love of candle making this year and her candles are sooo amazing. my favourite is eloise’s love-in candle. i burn them when i need some quiet time.”
