Ever wondered why you have three versions of the same top but want to buy another? Or why some shop mirrors are more flattering than others? And whether we really only wear 20 per cent of our wardrobe 80 per cent of the time?
Emily Stott is passionate about high street fashion. Her Saturday morning shopping trips as a child led to jobs both on the shop floor and in the offices of upmarket stores. But it was while writing about fashion brands for magazines and simultaneously spying as a mystery shopper that she gained a whole new insight into fashion retail. Now a stylist, Emily Stott writes with warmth and wit on the pleasures of dressing up, the trials of growing up and learning how to shop for yourself.
Full of insider knowledge, Shopped is a funny and engaging story about the pursuit of style. You'll never shop in the same way again.
Emily Stott was born in London, and has been an actor and journalist. In between acting jobs Emily worked on the House of Fraser shop floor and then at the head office of Thomas Pink, before deciding to train as a personal stylist. She also has many years experience as a high end mystery buyer. Always a keen and eagle-eyed shopper, Emily is passionate about the British high street. She lives in Battersea with her son.
