Ceri Hughes has lived and worked in London as a Business Management Consultant for ten years, and the city slicker lifestyle and the capital's style is evident in her clothes.
Would you say that living in London has influenced and shaped, your closet?
To some degree yes it has. I think you do tend to dress differently in a city, but also because of my work, that's also obviously influenced my choice of clothing - office work, formal wear, that kind of thing. I have two closets - one closet containing work clothes - suits mostly, and another closet holding my 'real' clothes, the things I wear in my spare time, and both closets differ quite substantially from each other.

As a woman in the world of business, do you make a special effort to ensure that your suit isn't too low cut or your skirt too short and so on?
Yes. The business world is still very much a male-dominated environment isn't it, and even though that's started to change to some extent I wouldn't want to be going to work dressed in something inappropriate - you don't want to draw attention to yourself for the wrong reasons do you!

Ceri on her first suit...
I tend to wear mainly suits to the office, and this is the first suit I bought for work, so ten years ago. I remember buying this suit, I went to Hobbs with two friends and they sat in the changing rooms advising and deliberating on the different suits - and they chose my first suit for me.
Ceri on her 'own' clothes...
Most of the things in my 'own' clothes wardrobe have come from Whistles, I love their stuff.
Your closet is extremely tidy, everything's colour coded -, even your undies!
Yes. I lke everything to be neat and tidy and orderly, because it tends to reflect on the state of my life as a whole. If this is a mess then my life's a mess, but if this closet's in order, my life's in order!
