Lara Asprey (AKA “Lady Lara”)The founder of The Sloane Arranger describes herself as a “VIP matchmaker … to people who, let’s face it, are a little bit Sloaney”. Educated at St George’s, Ascot and the author of The Very British Rules of Dating, Lara Asprey has been dubbed the “posh version of Carrie Bradshaw” and suggests Fera at Claridge’s and The Ivy Chelsea Garden as “fabulous places to take a date”. Her suggestion to girls is: “Get better at banter” and “be a ‘yes’ person – don’t let British reserve hold you back”. She is, herself, “available for personal appearances”.
