As my rather ‘proper’ retro bob begins its journey into a lob, I’ve been looking for a look to sex things up. It doesn’t get much sexier than Tom Ford’s SS15 woman, with her sequin nipple tasseled dress, shaggy hair and morning after makeup. Ford is always a safe bet when in search of something […]

We all know Valentine’s day isn’t exactly a real holiday. It is however, an opportunity to show the object of your affections a bit of love. Whether this means heading down to agent provocateur or booking a table at the Ivy, the point is clear, it’s a time for giving, and hopefully receiving. Whilst its not necessarily […]

You’ve probably already seen Cara’s latest campaign for Tom Ford’s Black Orchid. Whilst boys the world over are no doubt oogling her side boob, we’ve only got eyes for, Cara’s eyes. The young supermodel demonstrates the perfect party eyes, and brows and lips in the fragrance campaign. Whilst we love a blacked out smokey eye, […]

Perhaps I’m being inspired by my new sixties bob, or the AW14 shows of Paris, Milan and London have sub-consciously infiltrated my brain, but either way, I’m feeling very retro. And it seems its not just me. The High-St is playing host to more polo necks than I’ve ever seen; and what better to pair […]

Fashion month is coming to an end and whilst all the editors and digital viewers are getting to grips with what’s in store for next summer, I thought it was best to get you prepped for the coming season, Autumn/Winter. The catwalks showed an abundance of outlandish looks: cornrow crowns and feathered brows at Alexander McQueen […]

It may be still fairly warm but Gemma Arterton proved that it’s never too early for a leather skirt. The British actress gave a nod to the the very much still swinging sixties with a side-parted up do and Louboutin leopard print bag.

If you’re looking for the perfect festival, or Ibiza, look to take you from day to evening, blue eyeshadow is the one. Tom Ford‘s eye and cheek palette offered up the deepest of cobalts. A strong and striking deep sea blue, set against shimmering sheer golds and the palest pink blush. The super-sized white […]

I started out as a fashion writer and whilst Campaign Trailing and Backstage Beauty both have fashion at their core, their are so many shoots, campaigns and looks I love that I wanted to share. Model Looks will be a wall of inspiration; a look at shoots, models and looks to inspire or that I’ll […]
Read moreSpring is (kind of) here and it’s time for sunburst lips to take centre stage. Tropical matte orange is one of the summer’s biggest beauty trends, thanks to the Brit boys at Rag & Bone. It’s a one size fits all colour, no matter your skin tone or complexion, there’s a shade to […]
Read moreToday’s pay day and that only means one thing. Time to Splurge! For those of you who have been buying Tom Ford Beauty since it’s inception, you will understand the value of the white cases. The rectangular ivory lipstick cubes and their accompanying varnish tops have garnered cult status mainly because they mark you out […]
Read moreGingers are cool , it’s official. Admittedly I have always thought gingers were cool. I never wanted to be blonde or brunette, instead for some reason freckles and amber hair were my life’s greatest beauty ambition unrealised. In truth, redhead women have always been cool. Jessica Rabbit, Julianne Moore, Jessica Chastain, Florence Welch, Geri Halliwell […]
Read more[Rihanna at Givenchy] [At Stella McCartney] Ok so the stockings at Dior were a terrible shout, but pushing that image far back into the depths of our memories aside, Rihanna has been killing it at Paris Fashion Week. The singer returned from her Aspen birthday break with a bang (and a bob), lending her support […]
Read moreThe Brits as always, were a raucous affair. Alex Turner gave an obscure and hilarious speech, Lily Allen dip-dyed her hair yellow (and matched it to her Chanel bag) and Kate Moss joined Noel Gallagher onstage in David Bowie‘s bunny onesie. Sequins seemed to rule supreme but couldn’t have been approached more differently. Beyonce channelled […]
Read moreLast night most of the world’s most beautiful men descended on London for the GQ Annual Men of the Year Awards. There was eye-candy a plenty, with guests including Eddie Redmayne, David Gandy, Justin Timberlake, Pharrell Williams, Douglas Booth and Tom Ford (I know I can’t turn him, but still, wow). Other legends in attendance […]
Read morePuerto Rican Supermodel Joan Smalls, stole the show at the VMAs (well that is until Miley Cyrus attempted to pull a Rih Rih/old school Britney with Robin Thicke). As we’ve been inundated with celebrity holiday pics, it was nice to see someone ready for winter, and Joan made the case for Autumn/Winter make-up an easy […]
Read moreI absolutely love Mad Men, so I am slightly biased whenever I see one of the show’s stars on the Red Carpet. Fortunately Jessica Pare’s recent outing in Roksanda Illincic at the Mad Men event, at The Paley Centre in New York last night, makes it easy to pretend it’s nothing to do with the […]
Read moreDior Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence has been quietly taking the red-carpet by storm in an array of Dior, first at the Golden Globes and later at the Oscars. Considering how well she wears it, it was only a matter of time before she was enlisted as Dior’s newest face. In the campaign for Miss Dior […]
Read moreValentine’s Day is among us once again and whether you’re planning a night of seduction, mutual adulation with girlfriends or you’re committed to the couch, there will be no escaping tomorrow’s gushiness. Red lipstick is the obvious choice, but the case for pink has been gathering pace, and is a sagacious nod to the day. […]
Read moreNatasha Poly backstage at Gucci. Deep red backstage at Rochas. In no way as big a trend as dark eyes, the image of wine-soaked lips has been a trend for seasons now- be it Autumn or Spring; yet the look shows no signs of relenting, even if at micro trend status. As the heat subsides- […]

Read moreOver in London we haven’t seen much of the sun, but that’s no reason for us to give up on the hope of a few rays. Tom Ford’s S/S ’12 nail collection, Liquid Gold, would admittedly look best by the beaches of the Caribbean or Cannes, but luckily they’ll see you through to Autumn/Winter. The […]
