Elizabeth Lau - Fashion Designer

Skin care: Eve Lom cleanser and Dr Hauschka day oil. 'The ingredients are plant-based and natural.'

Mascara: Maybelline Sky High Curves. 'It's cheap, cheerful and I throw it away after a few applications.'

Lipgloss/lipstick: Prescriptives Moonbeam Reflective Gloss. 'It makes my lips sparkle.'

Perfume: Chanel or Guerlain. 'My favourite is [Guerlain's] Champs-Elysees - it smells so happy and feminine.'

Dresses: 'My favourites are a Vanessa Bruno jersey dress and a cute little polka-dot silk slip by Laundry Industry.'

Jeans: Chelsea Garb, Marithe + Francois Girbaud, Sass & Bide and Michiko Koshino. 'I tend to go for flattering cuts and quirky details.'

Tops: 'Usually cheap finds from Topshop and my own cashmere knits. I love soft cashmere when it's cold.'

Shoes: Japanese-Brazilian designer Chie Mihara. 'Her shoes are kooky and complement everything I wear.'

Mobile phone: Motorola Razr V3 flip phone. 'It's a bit trendy, but it was free.'

Last book read: This Little Piggy Went to Prada. 'It is filled with cute rhymes about fashion and shopping. It was a present from a former intern who drew the beautiful illustrations for the book.'

Most valued possessions: 'My photographs and love letters.'

Never leave home without: 'My Roxanne bag, sketchbook, Filofax and a packet of tissues - a habit I picked up in Hong Kong.'
