So apparently, it’s been cool in London this season. You can always give off heat. Plus, you now have a reason to wear stilts and studs in Summer. Always look at the positive side, my dears. Image: Burberry.

It’s hot. Hard to look hawt in this heat, no? Put on something breezy and whisper thin, something white – and chill out with a few of my favourite heatwave tunes. Oh and the best way to control frizz? Wash the locks in the coolest water you can take, put on industrial-strength Kerastase serum – and [...]

We know Tilda can turn it out when it comes to editorial shoots. She seems to morph into another being, for every photo.

Innovation and Viktor and Rolf go hand in glove. These gentlemen are masters of extending a simple idea beyond our imaginations – like the layered collars from years ago that still make my heart flutter. They renewed my affection for them this season with this little ensemble. I have always loved black and white in [...]

I still read magazines and always will. Know why? Because a good cover can help you recover from a crappy day. A great cover like this, you remember. A cover like this, you keep. Doesn’t hurt that it’s red, black and white. I have images from the rest of the haunting editorial and will post [...]

The French house of shoes that is Robert Clergerie was recently purchased by new owners, who naturally, want to redo the place to their taste. The first thing on the list?
