ALL OF THE COOL GIRLS — think Gigi, Kendall Jenner and Margot Robbie — have been spotted in One Teaspoon’s effortlessly cool denim, so it figures that the label’s founder and creative director Jamie Blakely knows a few things about style — as told to Renata Gordon.

The hardest working item in my wardrobe is … my mens’ Gucci sneakers.  I bought them 12 years ago and only wore them for a while and then dug them out a few months ago. It’s rare that I give them a day off.

My most recent purchase was … a big black pool table. We’re renovating a 110-year-old cottage in Yamba and we’re building a fun room.

Avalon is a perfect summer location, according to Jamie Blakely.

Three items every woman should own are … plenty of jeans, for every occasion, great sneakers so you can get stuff done and a giant handbag to put your life in.

Shoes over bags because … bags you don’t change as often, but I can wear a different pair of shoes with every outfit.

My make-up MVP is ... Invisible Zinc tinted moisturiser, that’s the only thing I use every day.

My ultimate skincare saviour is … Environ. Any of their products are great.

Coffee over tea … Always.

My comfort food is … I’m not really a comfort food kind of person but I’d probably go for wine before comfort food.

My signature scent is ... Tom Ford Patchouli Absolu. I love it.

Bistro Boulevard is a favourite.

My favourite Sydney spot is … Avalon. It’s where we live and in our eyes you just can’t beat it. Of course there are lots of places I love to visit in Sydney but to live where you love is pretty damn lucky.

I’m a regular at ... Bistro Boulevard, a French restaurant in Avalon, that’s been there for 35 years. It’s an institution.

I’m currently binge watching … Orange Is The New Black. I have calmed down on the binge watching lately and can I tell you it feels great, so I’m limiting myself to one or two episodes a night. Takes discipline, that’s for sure.

I’m Instagram stalking … my buddies. I don’t get time to check in all the time so I go in and check in on what they’re all doing.

If my life had a hashtag, it would be … #noplanb
