“Vain trifles as they seem, clothes have, they say, more important offices than to merely keep us warm. They change our view of the world and the world’s view of us.”

― Virginia Woolf, Orlando

The Lady’s Maid has stepped a rather hesitant toe into the 21st century in order to bring you dressing advice alongside some top tips on how best to organise and care for your clothes and accessories. She knows what to wear for every occasion and how to dress to look your best.

After graduating from St. Andrews University with an MA in Art History, Alicia Healey took a summer job working at the Queen’s home in the highlands, Balmoral Castle. She spent the next four years working for the Royal Household based at Buckingham Palace before travelling the world as a Lady’s Maid and PA, visiting locations including Riyadh, Japan, Bali and the USA. Alicia loves sharing her passion for clothes through her Instagram account @theladysmaid where she offers style advice to her followers on what to wear for every occasion. Her book Wardrobe Wisdom was published this October. She has spent the last four years living and working in Monaco and the South of France.
