‘Scotland has changed my style,’ says Made in Chelsea’s Georgia Toffolo on her new life north of the border
MADE in Chelsea star Georgia Toffolo has revealed her fashion has changed since embarking on a romance with Scots boyfriend James Watt.
The bubbly reality TV favourite, affectionately nicknamed Toff, has been spending more time north of the border since she started dating James Watt, the former boss of beer firm BrewDog.
The pair met on a blind date in 2023 with 42-year-old James’ down-to-earth ways attracting Georgia to him.
Now they split their time between Georgia’s native London and Aberdeenshire.
And being up north has also changed glamorous Georgia’s fashion sense.
The celeb, who has teamed up with preloved platform Vinted to share her buying and selling tips, revealed she dresses down much more often these days.
Toff said: “I think my fashion has changed.
“Before I met James, my wardrobe was 75 per cent going out stuff, 25 per cent casual, because I lived in central London and I was just generally quite dressy.
“Now that we’ve really split ourselves between Scotland and London, my fashion has become way more elevated cool but casual.
“I’ve still got my beautiful things, and we’re so fortunate. I go to so many lovely places.
“But I’m concentrating on more everyday wear whereas before it was like real showcase luxury.
“I’m 30 in October, so life is moving on. But I think a big determination of what you’re buying and what you’re wearing is actually the way you’re living.”
James co-founded BrewDog, based in Ellon, Aberdeenshire, in 2007. Its net value was put at £1.5billion, with James’s share said to be worth £300million.
And Georgia said it’s not just her own style that has changed. James, who announced he was stepping down as CEO of BrewDog after a turbulent few years in May, has also evolved in the fashion stakes.
But Georgia insists it’s got nothing to do with her. She said with a laugh: “All of his friends and his family take the mick, and there are always comments being thrown around like, ‘Oh I bet Georgia bought those for you’, because James was wearing a really cool pair of trousers.
“But I’m able to say, I do not buy anything for James, nor do I direct him.
“So when he’s out with his fishing boat friends, they’re all going, ‘Oh yeah, it’s that London girl’.
“It’s not me! Whatever he’s doing is not me.
“But I’m still in that stage with James, he could wear something really awful and I might still love it. You know when you love someone that much? We’re still at that stage.”
