About Me
Hi, I’m Nikki Garnett, for 9 years I was the editor of Selfridges’ magazine. Now, I’m married with 3 sons, 2 cats and a dog called Gary. I live near the Lake District in the North West of England and run a small creative agency with my husband.
I created Midlifechic because a little while ago, amidst all the chaos of family and working life, I was beginning to feel like I’d lost my groove. So this is for anyone else out there who is emerging from the baby years and looking forward to beginning a whole new chapter.
