Hi, I’m Krissy, Eliza’s fashion editor. I oversee all things fashion here, so expect stylish edits, expert shopping advice, and chic inspiration from us. I’ve worked in fashion for a decade, and the high street is my Mastermind subject. Helping you build an expensive-looking (but affordable - win win) wardrobe you can humblebrag about is my aim. By day, you’ll likely catch me in a blazer (from Arket, probably), jeans and a great bag (IMHO), and by night, I love a mini dress with strappy heels. I wear enough gold jewellery everyday for around three people, swear by bronzer year round, and I’m always wearing Charlotte Tilbury’s Very Victoria lipstick.

Hi, I’m Chloe! I’m a petite gal at 5ft1in, but you won’t catch me shopping in the petite sections. My style icons have always been the Olsen Twins and Rosie Huntington-Whitely. I like to think I know a thing or two about nailing the art of the elongated physique, so I'll help you find the perfect pair of jeans without the dreaded ‘homemade cuff’ or expensive seamstress trip.

Hello, I'm Sidonie and I've worked in the fashion industry for about six years, I am also sport (specifically netball) and DIY obsessed. Oh, and tequila. Preferably in the form of a spicy marg. I'm immediately drawn to anything with oversized collars, frills and puff sleeves, but will spend most of my time in different iterations of the white t-shirt, blazer and straight legged jeans look. I'm a bit of a bargain hunter - I love to find the latest Bottega bag lookalike on the high street and am currently scouring the second-hand realm for my first taste of old Celine.

I’m Lottie, Eliza’s Fashion Content Creator, helping you to shop the high street smartly and find forever pieces so good you’ll want to wear them again and again. I am a bit of a fashion chameleon, so one day you’ll see me in monochrome and the next bright pink. Mixing classic styling with the occasional trend and twist, from my go-to ruffle blouses and flares, to oversized blazers and skinny jeans.

At heart I’m a total magpie, which is typical fashion journalist behaviour – I’m always on the hunt for new jewellery brands and you’ll rarely catch me without my bling. I love finding sustainable swaps and I am currently searching for the perfect pair of leather trousers. Platforms are my most recent favourite revival trend - and I insist on wearing them to parties even though I'm 5ft 10in.

I’m Hannah, Eliza’s MD. I look after the commercial side of the business and work with beauty and fashion brands who want to create branded content with us. I would describe my style as fairly smart with a splash of leopard print and the occasional bonkers pattern. I come into my own in summer months as I love a dress and sandals combo. I have recently discovered Thought The Brand and I’m excited to take some of their new dresses out for a spin.
