About The Author

She’s a size 28, but the best description for her is pocket rocket: she’s short (5ft), but drawn with Beryl Cook brushstrokes.

I founded Pocket Rocket in August 2009. Fashion has always been a huge passion of mine despite not fitting in with the acceptable standard.

I am a fiercely comitted feminist and HAES advocate, although I keep the blog mostly free of politics – this is my happy place!

I also enjoy bad action films, karaoke and music. I consider myself a riot grrrl.
