Fashion, Royal Ascot and Instagram Live
Charlotte Hawkins is quite the fashion icon and posting snaps of her designer dresses, Charlotte gives us some serious style envy.
During the Coronavirus lockdown, Charlotte Hawkins has adapted to working from home. Whereas normally, Charlotte would be at the Ascot Races covering the event.
However, as the event is taking place behind closed doors, the journalist has to adapt to covering the racing from her house.
I should just point out this is not my usual working from home attire!! https://t.co/DdH1vATBkx
