Please note: This is an online event.

Rebel, mother, adventurer, antique jewellery dealer, model – Sarah Jane Adams burst into the spotlight when she started the hashtag #mywrinklesaremystripes on Instagram and went viral on Ari Seth Cohen’s renowned Advanced Style blog. In her beautiful, life-affirming new memoir, Life In A Box, she tells her story through a lifetime’s collection of rare pieces and worthless objects, as well as personal photographs and effects from her ‘estate’.

We are so excited to host a conversation between Adams and Cohen (Advanced Style, Advanced Style: Older And Wiser and Advanced Love) about the memoir and about the deeply personal connection that we have with our belongings.

This is an online event and free to attend. Please book here, and you will be sent a unique Zoom link.
