Description

In this episode I go on a style journey with Broadcaster and Amnesty Ambassador … the human ray of sunshine that is Vick Hope. Vick is one of the most joyful and positive women I have met in a long time. Chatting to her I wished that my 21 year old self could have been a fly on the wall for the conversation and taken on board some of her wisdom. Her sense of self and acceptance of who she is is inspiring …(not hard, I hear you say, when you look like she does), but like every woman I know, we all feel we could be better at this, or life would be easier if we looked like that…yet Vick has reached a place of loving life, and all its imperfections, and her joy is simply, and beautifully, infectious. We talk about how she didn’t feel like she fitted in growing up, then felt like a fish out of water when she went to Cambridge University, and how she had been “a bit unkind to herself”, before finding herself when she moved to London. She clearly loves fashion and shares anecdotes of being inspired by her mother, clothes swaps at Uni and dressing for her different broadcasting roles which to date have been many and varied included presenting Crufts, the Paralympics, and boxing, to co-hosting the Baftas and the Brits…she is about to be a guest presenter on Pointless and currently hosts the Drive Time Show on Radio 1 with Jordan North…and so much more…her life is clearly a happy whirlwind, and she is joyfully embracing every moment…in a word…inspirational.
