| The Soho Girl

Tis the season…

The winter season is a great time for reflection. With our official ‘coming out’ and the new roaring 20s just around the corner, this couldn’t be a more fitting time for us to launch. It’s been a whirlwind of a journey since the summer of 2019 when I took on the challenge of turning my long standing blog into a lifestyle magazine (and accepting that I cannot be the Carrie Bradshaw of Soho)!

That family member for me, comes in the form of my Aunty B. Love her to bits, but she sure knows how to challenge; “But why the name The Soho Girl?” she’s asked me on more than one occasion…  Well, let’s start in Soho, London 2005! Continue reading →
