#11 This Is A Token with Raven Smith

We are so excited to kick off Season 2 of ‘This is a Token’ with the witty and wonderful Raven Smith. Raven is a wearer of so many interesting hats - from Humorist, Writer and Cultural Commentator to Instagrammer, Style Icon and more recently Jewellery Designer! You will of course recognise Raven and his slightly naughty influence from our genderless collaboration, 'Alex Monroe x Raven Smith'.Listen in, as Raven and Alex have a fun and fascinating chat about his most meaningful ’tokens’. From a pair of pinky signet engagement rings left intentionally blank, to a theatrical necklace he has lived in for the past 9 years highlighting the sheer sentimentality of those personal treasures that sit next to your skin and your heart every single day. Plus, as is always promised with Raven, there are some hilarious reflections on being a chronic extrovert, Poirot as a cure for insomnia and how volunteering as marshall during the pandemic brought out his inner head girl!You can follow Raven on Instagram and Twitter @raven__smith www.instagram.com/raven__smith/?hl=enYou can read Raven’s American Vogue Column here www.vogue.com/contributor/raven-smithDiscover Rochelle Canteen Shoreditch, as recommended by Alex and Raven! www.instagram.com/rochellecanteen/?hl=enPeruse The Sunday Times best-seller Raven Smith’s Trivial Pursuits here www.waterstones.com/author/raven-smith/470167For all things Alex Monroe jewellery, visit our website www.alexmonroe.comTo discover our collection of Wedding Bands, go to www.alexmonroe.com/jewellery/rings/weddingYou can find our very own Coin Necklace here www.alexmonroe.com/engraved-coin-necklaceFor everything you need to know about the Alex Monroe x Raven Smith Collaboration, visit www.alexmonroe.com/ravensmithIllustration by Connie Bella MonroeEdited by Emily SandfordMusic by Daniel Patrick Cohen Hosted on Acast.
