- Helen McGinn, Kat Farmer, and @libbybrodie walk into a bar and discover a newfound appreciation for each other and Naked Wines.
- The three women share a love for wine, and their friendship is built on a foundation of mutual support and trust.
- They regale each other with stories of their lives, from marriages and divorces to fashion and writing.
The Story of How They Met
Helen McGinn and Kat Farmer, aka @knackeredmother and @doesmybumlook40, respectively, met through Twitter.
“I tweeted Kat that I was thinking of wearing leather but couldn’t decide if, for my body shape, it should be tits or legs,” said Helen.
Kat messaged back and advised Helen to “step away from the leather trousers.”
As their online friendship grew, they began to make cocktails together on Instagram, which became a hit with their followers.
A Night Out with Naked Wines
The three women headed to Scarfes Bar in London’s Rosewood Hotel, where they sipped on cocktails and discussed their favorite topics.
I had brought Rambla 41 Ginebra de Llimona Mediterranean Dry Gin (Naked Wines) with me for the table.
This craft gin was awarded a medal and the International Wine and Spirit Competition and is bursting with the ripe citrus essence of the Mediterranean: grapefruit, lemons, and a whisper of thyme.
As they chatted, they shared their Feminist Commandments with each other.
