Women of 2012

 Sky Ferreira- talented, beautiful, stylish and fun to follow on Tumblr

Lana Del Ray- the one and only. Provided the soundtrack to my life in 2012. As beautiful in person as she is in photos

Cara Delevinge- Model of the Year, joker (remember the Panda costume?) and everyone's favourite girl crush

Stella McCartney- launched a fragrance, designed the British Olympic uniforms and was named Bazaar Designer of the Year. I greatly admire her unwavering ethics, refusing to use leather or fur in any of her designs.

Annabel Crab- combining politics, cooking and journalism on my favourite show Kitchen Cabinet.

 Gold medal winning British Heptathlete...that's seven sports. SEVEN! An inspiring new role model.

Julia Gillard, first female PM of Australia- I certainly don't agree with all of her politics (I am a staunch supporter of Marriage Equality), but there's no denying she kicked some ass with her speech on misogyny and sexism from the opposition.

 My Mum Rosanne- the woman I inherited my love of clothes from. We haven't lived in the same place for 10 years and in that time she has made herself a beautiful home, worked with the elderly as a volunteer in their homes and built a network of amazing friends. May she reap all the rewards she deserves in 2013.
