Sasha Wilkins is an English fashion editor, broadcaster & journalist. She is the founder of LLG Media which encompasses her award-winning lifestyle blog libertylondongirl.com and her social media consultancy business, LLGConsults, which works with global luxury brands and agencies to enhance their online presence.

Sasha won both Blogger of the Year last November at Red magazine's Women of the Year awards, which honour British women who have shown "impressive talent, success and imagination in their fields of work", and Fashion Twitter Feed of the Year at Marie Claire's Online Awards. She can currently be seen fronting the AW11 & SS12 advertising campaign for Hunter Boots in magazines including British Vogue, Elle and Grazia.
Sasha has been blogging since 2006, although she took a year's hiatus from the online world in 2008 to work as executive style editor on the launch of The Wall Street Journal’s WSJ magazine in New York. Her most recent forays into social media include the award-winning LLG Twitter feed, which has over 48,000 followers (she is one of The Independent's100 Most Influential Britons on Twitter), and the LLG Instagram and Tumblrs, which are photo diaries of her life.

Writ¬ten anony¬mously for three years until Sasha came out as the author over a three page inter-view fea¬ture in British Grazia in Feb¬ru¬ary 2010, LLG covers subjects as diverse as architecture, food, fashion, beauty and philanthropy, as well as its author's thoughts on, well, everything. Positioned as the Insider's Guide to Everything on the Inside, if you want to know where to go, where to stay, what to do when you get there and what to wear whilst doing it all, then LLG is the place to visit first.

After starting out as a glorified coffee fetcher/second assistant at British Conde Nast, Sasha has worked as a senior magazine editor on both sides of the Atlantic, written for publications including The Sunday Times, The Observer, Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, Red, Condé Nast Traveller, Vogue.com and The Evening Standard. Her TV & radio appearances include BBC Radio4's Today programme & Woman's Hour, the News at Ten, BBC Breakfast, Sky News' Jeff Randall Live, CNN, BBC World Service, BBC Worldwide & BBCNews 24 amongst many others.

"Sasha is an example of why writers, editors and producers should be natural digital media pioneers – but very few have shown the curiosity, skill, drive and tenacity to use the incredible new tools at our fingertips."
Elisabeth Murdoch. Judge at Red magazine's Women of the Year Awards
