It’s couture darling
How I love Cecil Beaton’s famous portrait of models wearing Charles James couture. And so do Tim Walker and Steven Meisel…

I want, I want: Janette Beckman’s newspaper
At times like this I really miss the days of working in an office and having full time access to a colour photocopier. It made my Christmas wrapping process so much more fun. Just thumb through the pages of Vogue/World of Interiors/Interview, slap selected pages on copier, enlarge x200% and press copy. Result: lovely glossy A3 pages for personalised gift wrapping and a queue of disgruntled interns behind.
These days I have to settle for the lush pages of How To Spend It but I do find them a wee bit thin and those staples are a bore. So I love the idea of Brit photographer Janette Beckman’s ‘newspaper’, featuring 24 pages of her famous 70s-80s youth culture portraits. Perfect for wrapping anything music, photography or fashion-related and yes, I would totally be that person who rescues the paper after the gift has been unwrapped…

Carine and the girls
Zut alors! Carine Roitfeld has quit Paris Vogue! Where will she go? Will she become Tom Ford’s full time muse? Will Katie Grand move in to PV towers? Who knows. All I know is it gives me a great excuse to show you my favourite picture of the Paris Vogue team…
