Meet the model and poet who has penned her brilliant prose to some of our most iconic pieces
Charlie Brogan is a multi-talented woman. The model, poet and co-founder of online magazine The Ralley (https://the-rally.co.uk/) was one of the stars of our bridal shoot and here she shares her bag loves, style tips and - lucky for us - four original poems Charlie has penned for an edit of Lulu’s most poetic bags.
Charlie’s poetry has been published extensively and she has a Substack newsletter - ‘The Write Thing’ - where she shares poetry as well as poetry prompts and interviews with writers. If you visit her Instagram you can discover many of her keenly observed poems.
Restless Network (restlessnetwork.com) has named her one of the ‘7 incredible poets you need in your life right now’ and say her “witty prose really sets her apart”, declaring her poem ‘Girls’ a ‘must-read’: “A beautiful homage to womanhood in all its forms, Brogan’s work really encapsulates the idea of ‘being a girl’.”

Read on for our Q&A with Charlie:
Q: What is your go-to bag?
A: My go to bag would be anything bright, like a nice pop of colour. So, the Lulu Guinness Lips Clutch!
Q: What is your every bag?
A: My go to day-to-day bag would be a big leather tote so I can fit in my laptop and some books and maybe a notebook just in case I ever want to write something down.
Q: What do you have your eye on?
A: What I have my eye on currently is the amazing lipstick holder key ring because I love a bold red lip so I always need it just attached to me whenever I need to top up.
