The best interviews are often the most personal. In Loves of My Life, we get to know the person behind their craft, asking them the important questions we're desperate to know—the restaurants and date-night spots, what's in their Saved folder on Instagram, the piece of jewellery they're most attached to and what's lurking at the bottom of their handbag. In short, these are the true loves of their life.

Tilly Sveaas founded her eponymous brand in 2016. Born in Hong Kong to British-Norwegian parents, London-based Tilly has been a jewellery designer for over 25 years, creating her first pieces during an extended trip to Bali, where she still produces to this day. Her pieces have been worn by Taylor Swift, Kylie Jenner and Elle Macpherson, and her latest launch, Moi + Toi, is fronted by the iconic Rosemary Ferguson and her daughter Elfie Reigate.

Da Adolfo on the Amalfi coast, the grilled mozzarella on lemon leaves is the best.

Some black and white photos of my husband and I, taken on our first ever holiday together in Egypt.

Loose Tilly Sveaas T-Bars and poo bags.

My husband, my sisters and my parents.

The south of France. The light is beautiful throughout the year and it never gets truly cold. The wine and food are also not too shabby!

My wedding ring and an amazing diamond and emerald ring made by the very talented Delaval Knight, who dangerously has an office in the same building!

We're building our house in Corfu, Greece. It's going to be a labour of love, which requires patience, but it will be amazing when it's eventually finished!

It's not very secret, but my favourite date night happens in our own kitchen. Friday night pasta, the end of the week, a lovely bottle of wine and not a menu in sight.

My vintage 3-ply cashmere cardigan. They don't make cashmere that thick anymore, and I live in fear of moths!

The Police – 'Greatest Hits'; Simon and Garfunkel – 'Graceland'.

Too many miniature dachshund videos.

My favourite city is London, as it has all the wonderful museums and archives for classical references and history, yet the different pockets of the city offer varying street style that cannot fail to inspire you.

Bikinis, a lot of them. I also like to buy a bikini from everywhere I go on holiday… the hot places! And of course, I never go anywhere without my jewellery. I always bring staple pieces such as the T-Bar necklace that can be worn 5 ways. It’s totally versatile and all the wearable options make it look like you've actually packed more than you have! I also never leave home without my chunky silver bracelet stack, which is a nightmare going through airport security!

My first ever job when I was 16 was a Saturday girl at Gucci on Bond Street. My uniform shoes are the comfiest pair of shoes I own. They did so many steps and were worn into perfection.

Lancôme Hypnôse Mascara.

Something warm that I haven't cooked myself! Normally, in the form of pasta.

Point Break, The Thomas Crown Affair, An Officer And A Gentleman.

My mother always told me to listen to the little voice in my head. This has really helped me as being the founder of a business, you are constantly having to make decisions and prioritise. I have learnt to trust this voice and my hunch rather than always trusting in professional advice.

Do Son by Diptyque. It’s fresh and works throughout the year, and I get more compliments on this smell than anything else I have ever worn! I love it, and although people always say you should switch things up, I simply can’t stop wearing it!

Candlesticks and antique glasses.

Symprove Probiotic Supplements - I am very keen to improve my gut flora!

Levi’s, Gucci loafers and WNU shirts. Like my jewellery, I like classic styles, pieces that will stand the test of time and can be worn for years and styled in different ways. Wardrobe staples rather than fast fashion.

White wine - very cold and drunk out of a really beautiful thin glass.

Who is your professional hero?

I love what the Olsen twins have done at The Row and how they have still managed to keep such a low profile.

Who are the loves of your life?

Olly, my husband. Mitty, my little miniature black and tan dachshund.

What is the love of your life?

Swimming in clear, diamond blue waters.
