From the vaults: Jeny Howorth



Is this the picture that first piqued my interest in all things pretty-tomboy? Jeny Howorth, a big name on the 80s London modelling circuit, epitomises the low-maintenance, fresh-faced, androgynous look that I always go back to. (And however bad I know it is, there’s no denying she looks damn cool smoking a fag.)



Time2 questionnaire



It’s no secret that I’m a bit of a watch fanatic so I didn’t need to be asked twice by Time2 to answer some nosy questions about watches and fashion.
