Find out what influences the influencers when we are joined by two of our favourite bloggers, Instagrammers and fashion experts, Erica Davies and Alex Stedman (aka The Frugality), to discover – among many other things – the books that helped their careers, those they would take to a desert island, what they read in childhood and what they are reading to their own children now.

After becoming Fleet Street’s youngest-ever fashion editor at The Sun aged just 24, Erica went on to work at LOOK magazine and the Mirror before launching her blog The Edited in 2012, the same year that fashion stylist Alex, then the style editor at Red magazine, set up her award-winning blog The Frugality.

They will be in conversation with The Home Page co-founder Jessica Jonzen in the stunning setting of Henley’s River & Rowing Museum.
