My first job was a film called 'Storm Damage' for the BBC. I was 16 and working with really respected British actors. I didn't have an agent at the time, and it kind of threw me into real acting.

It's not exactly under the radar, but when I'm in London, I love to visit Liberty. It's my favorite department store, and they have a room entirely dedicated to chocolate and truffles.

Mascara is my daily essential. I pile it on top and bottom lashes during the day. If I'm going out, I'll add the individual Eylure lashes at the outer corners for more drama.

I like shopping from the comfort of my bed whilst my husband is asleep beside me.

Creating a character is about what they look like. The look speaks volume to the audience.

I'm terrible at posting regularly; I don't deserve the blog success!

Topshop makes the best skinny jeans for my shape. I order online or stock up when I'm back in London.
