I met with Preen this morning to see their latest collection, it was beautiful close up and felt slightly more grown up than previous seasons which, it would appear, is a trend. Rodarte was poetic (...
I woke up at 4am this morning with a five mile to-do list running through my head. Should’ve got up given I didn’t fall asleep again. I woke up the dog. He woke up my flat mate. Before...
I always over pack, no matter how hard I try and no matter how many times I unpack and repack, I still end up with a suitcase so heavy the taxi needs new suspension and the driver needs a back operat...
Us Brits are instantly recognisable on holiday, aren’t we? We’re so easy to spot on a crowded beach, given we look so very, very British with our burnt skin, garish beach towels, branded ...
I know you don’t want to think about this right now but, if you venture into Topshop today you will find some of the best pieces of the season and you will definitely thank me come October, gua...
It’s easy to make a bikini right? Two small to medium sized triangles for the top with a bit of lycra string to hold them together. Then one bigger lycra piece, cut so it’s lop sided th...
Sometimes I have to remind myself that I don’t need ALL this stuff, the stuff and paraphernalia that comes with working in fashion I mean. Take today for example. I trotted down to the GUCCI ...
Hi, remember me? It’s your monthly columnist, you know, the one that muses about a bit of this and that on the back page of ELLE. I’m coming out of blog retirement today, it wasn’...
Guess what? I was totally butt naked five minutes ago and I’m in the office! Butt naked with the exception of a pair of Isabel Marant studded ankle boots and a La Perla black lace bra that is...
There’s something incredibly cathartic about having a house clear out at the first whiff of spring. I always get the urge to purge when I come back from the shows especially after arriving hom...
I last updated this blog a few weeks ago, blame the fashion weeks, blame the Twitter, blame the having a life, blame the wine! Let’s move on. My last entry (written last century in blog time ...
Fashion month is well and truly upon us and it’s brought me out in hives such is my anxiety about what I’m going to wear for the next three weeks. I’m incredibly picky about what I...
I was clearing out my wardrobe the other day and came across a pair of trousers I bought in 1996; a pair of Alexander McQueen bumsters. Bumsters are trousers done McQueen style baring the top part of...
Looking around the office the other day I realised we wouldn’t be able to run this well oiled fashion ship without our interns. That sounds like an obvious statement to make given most magazin...
Subscribers will have already devoured the March issue of ELLE but for the rest of you, it’s on the news stand today! Hurray! How hot does Liv Tyler look on the cover and especially on page 27...
I’ve just returned from a stroll down Oxford Street (thanks to the new flat shoe trend) and for a minute I thought I was on Bond or Sloane given the Zara window is practically an homage to the...
The subject of fur is as hot as this season Proenza it would seem judging by the amount of comments I have woken up to on my blog this morning. Still, had this been the nineties, there would be so m...
I’m shocked and dismayed at today’s Evening Standards report on the vintage fur wearing teens of today. What ever happened to being a politically minded activist during your teen years!?...
I have received five Christmas cards this year and I’m feeling ever so paranoid as I sit here writing this blog, I received at least twenty last year. Ok so I can deduct the three friends who ...
I sat opposite a quirky looking girl this morning on the Bakerloo line, I’m talking beret, colourful tights, funny shoes kinda quirky. She popped her rather large fabric handbag on to her lap ...
I always arrive at Edgware Road tube station at 9.15am on the dot. I always hop up the steps and around the corner from the platform and always check that the usual posters are there. This morning&...
When an invitation to have lunch with Jade Jagger landed on my desk the other day, I assumed it would be to have a look at her latest collection of high end jewellery given big rocks have been her th...
So you know that this column and blog is all about the confessions of one particular ELLE girl (that’s me), well I’ve never actually confessed to anything…. until now. I AM ABSOLU...
I feel like I’ve been run over by a fashion steam roller. After four weeks of bombing around the fashion capitals attending ten shows per day, never mind the presentations, re-sees, store open...
After a hectic week in Milan I’ve taken the day off to mooch around Portobello in the manner of somebody who works four day week. Wouldn’t that be lovely? There’s barely enough tim...
I love birthday parties especially when there is something big to celebrate like being 25 years old, I remember mine as if it were yesterday, well it practically was. I’ve dusted off my best f...
When an invitation to join Hermes at a ’scarf’ event at Liberty landed on my desk I thought odd, weird and more importantly why? Things got even more curious when the Hermes press office...
I feel weird. Not nice weird, I like nice weird. Nice weird when you wake up in a panic thinking you’re late for work but it’s actually a Saturday or when you eat too much wasabe paste an...
To coin a phrase, I should’ve gone to Specsavers earlier than I did, I now need glasses you see. The kindly boss here at ELLE Towers pays for us Mac users to have our eyes tested once a year an...
