IN LONDON: A New York style van selling food

August 19, 2010

115

Calling all food obsessed friends! London Food Festival starts on October 4… [Yes I thought it’d just been too but that was Taste London] and I’ve just become a little bit hungry thinking about the launch of Street Kitchen, a New York style street van that’ll plonk itself in a busy place where busy people […]

UNCOOL: Me in front of The Wanted

August 17, 2010

0

I suspect there comes a point in every woman’s life when something which at first seemed so insignificant all of a sudden becomes, well, significant. Just when I thought I was down with the kids, and it pains me to use that phrase because I don’t really feel like I left the kids all that […]

COOL: Dior illustrated

August 13, 2010

Now I can think of a million and six Dior obsessed people who will go to this exhibition at the ever popular Somerset House. It’s a great place to escape to for a culture hit if you’re feeling a bit dopey. Christian Dior, the man who sent shockwaves through the fashion starved post second world […]

COOL: ‘Marilyn’ as you’ve never seen her before

August 13, 2010

0

The words Marilyn followed by Monroe conjure iconic images of the Hollywood legend – blonde locks on a care-free tilted head or caught off-guard by photographers with a startled look of innocence but with the ability to switch on that innate sensuality in the blink of an eye. And with sensuality comes vulnerability. From August […]

COOL: A camera so cute you want to change its nappy

The Fisheye 2 X Rip Curl Special Edition Camera If, like me, you’re bamboozled by the Argos catalogue’s camera section but are in deep need of a snapper perhaps this special edition son of a gun is the answer! I mean just look at it – those kiddish primary colours – reminiscent of the Fisher Price kitchen I […]

COOL: Eva Hughes – editor of VOGUE latin america

July 30, 2010

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I caught Eva Hughes perched beneath a VOGUE cut-out dangling from the ceiling. Everyone had been trying to get an interview with her at Colombiamoda and here was my chance. But Spanish is not my language. Where better to star than ‘Ola!!’ – with my hand accidentally on Hughes’ […]

COOL IN COLOMBIA: Esteban Cortazar – a fashionable little man with a gigantic CV

July 29, 2010

What if fashion designers were all size zero? Then there’d be room for the likes of Ashish, Henry Holland and 26 year old Esteban Cortazar all on one runway, as the latter, a prodigal yet jaw-droppingly polite designer from Bogota, fits in your palm as comfortably as a wallet. Three weeks ago I received an […]

COOL: A mission for raw beef leads me to The Old White Bear

June 3, 2010

Imagine 250grams of packeted minced beef courtesy of the local supermarche with a raw egg plonked on top. Well, simple or not, it was delicious, but really, I could make that.

UNCOOL: Sex & The City

May 12, 2010

On May 27th, women whose eyes have for weeks been monitoring the length and width of Samantha Cameron’s baby bump on the BBC news homepage will simultaneously redirect their focus towards the release of Sex & The City 2. Cinemas are preparing to lose their automatic doors as, once again, hordes of excitable city girls shove, […]
