STYLE INSIDER: NATALIE SALMON
Whose personal style inspires you?
I have so many vintage references I keep looking back to which totally influence my style; Lee Radziwill, Marchesa Luisa Casati, and Bianca Jagger among them. I also love current French style icons, Caroline de Maigret and Carine Roitfeld.
How are you spending your extra free time around the house?
I did a calligraphy course a couple of years ago and have really gotten back into it, I thought it would be a totally useless skill but there is something quite soothing about it. I bought a book called Calm Calligraphy and practice from that whenever I have a break from work.
Natalie Recommends...
The one gadget you can’t live without?
My Series 5 Apple watch
Home workout of choice?
The 7 Minute Workout app and online Bodyism classes.
Favourite shopping app?

Favourite way of staying in touch with friends and family?
Houseparty app
Apps just for fun?
I would recommend trying Drest, a mobile fashion game where you get to play virtual stylist and Pret-a-Template, an app you can use to draw fashion sketches.
Do you have TikTok and should we all get it?
