What is your ethnic heritage?
I am Filipino, born in the United Kingdom I grew up in West London, city girl through and through (although the countryside is my sanctuary) I know London like the back of my hand, like a black cab knows his street postcodes. I am as Filipino as I am British, in equal balance.
Both of my parents were of Filipino descent and were one of the first generation Filipinos that arrived in the U.K, and what a life did they build up for themselves here.
Best and not so great thing about being a Mum?
Parenting is life affirming and humbling, but if I had to think of the not so good factors are definitely the tantrums and melt downs! The fact that I still feel like I am in the Twilight Zone after five years. Lucky to have a good kid, the stresses that can come with parenting – I got you!
What is your ultimate life hack?
In every situation, keep calm and carry on.
What are your favourite brands or places to shop your under 10 items per season?
I trawl vintage and charity shops in and around London when I am lucky to spot one for pre-loved items. Whilst I still champion shopping high street and appreciate high luxury brands, I gravitate towards Uniqlo for basics, the umbrella of brands such as HM, COS, Arket and other stories. Isabel Marant, Acne Studios, and Sezane are hand picks of my favourite High-end Fashion brands that make quality and functional pieces – all investments in your closet.
I have a never ending romance with style, one hundred percent get the chic style genes from my Mum.
Best thing about being British Filipino in London?
Not only do I get to enjoy the plethora of Filipino cuisines in London, but love that there is massive community here in the U.K like one big family in unison, definitely feels nostalgic 
One piece of advise to stay stylish but on a budget?
Keep to 10 items or less every season and repeat.
We should think more about…
The planet and being more resourceful, think what kind of world we would like our kids to live in? *just a thought*
Stuck on a desert island what one item would you take with you?
Music and headphones I couldn’t live without music my Spotify playlists galore! or my APX 6oo electro acoustic guitar.
One of my first romances in life is the one I have with music <3
A thing worth knowing is…
