Help. Cool stuff. British Fashion designers. Food. My articles. Running In Heels - Pan-European comment on culture, politics and. Running In Heels | Review: Life’s too F***ing Short – Janet Stre. Janet Street-Porter has made a name as a straight-talking media executive. She has appeared in numerous reality-TV shows and edited for two years.

She has five books under her belt, including her memoirs and a foreword to a recent edition of , by the Marquis de Sade. You’ll probably find her latest opus under the ‘Self-Help’ section in book stores, but is not your average rule book. Street-Porter has an opinion on about everything in life, ranging from fashion (‘White clothes were invented so could print pictures of well-known women on holidays looking like total trollops in their sun wear’) to careers. The best chapter probably is the one dealing with travel and holidays: never forget your guidebook and hang out with the locals. Much of her advice is based on common sense; it’s what your mother would probably be telling you, should you care to listen, but with a Street-Porter-sized dollop of humour.

The design of the book is probably as important as the content. Running In Heels | Meet Jonathan Saunders.

The latest issue of Tim House features an interview with Amélie Nothomb, by the magazine's Paris editor, Heather Hartley. In between talking about Rilke, writing as pregnancy, and the importance of boredom, Hartley asks Nothomb about her concept of being a -- a state of being without country, of having never had a country, that struck me as an interesting way of looking at a familiar problem. Here's the passage: {*style: HH: In The Life of Hunger , you created the neologism “jamaisien” [in French “jamais” means “never”]—denoting someone from the “country of never.”

How do you recognize yourself in this idea? AN: In the whole idea. HH: Yes, on a lot of levels, and in different ways—as a woman, as a writer, as a foreigner living in France . . . AN: At the same time there are enormously very fine, wonderful sides to it [this idea of being “jamaisien”.] But at the same time, it’s true that it’s also a lack, a deficiency. AN: Absolutely.

Announced yesterday, Vogue and Lucky, are launching partnerships this week with e-commerce shopping sites. The once comfy and plush Conde Nast titles have been motivated to think “out of box” in terms of revenue.

All this climate makes for creative solutions and better 360 experiences for the consumer. Today, a website called theOutnet.com (Net-a-porter’s outlet site) will be boasting some “flash sales” exclusively with Lucky. (Websites: Gilt Groupe, Net-a-Porter) Imagine that every Friday (for 4 weeks in a row), only Lucky’s newsletter subscribers will have access to, for example, a 3.1 Phillip Lim jacket at discount rate. Another example of print mags jumping in bed with e-commerce is Vogue’s “Steal of the Month” page in their print magazine now offering ready-to-wear looks that are less than $500 on Gilt Groupe.

Many of you will know this great Lady and some of you may not. Eunice Johnson was the creator, along with her husband, of Ebony Magazine. She died on January 3, 2010 at the age of 93 years old.

The Johnson Publishing company in Chicago has other titles on its roster like Jet, but Ebony was the jewel in their publishing crown. What is extraordinary is its longevity and the fact that there was no other publishing company owned by an African-American with its breadth and influence. In short, Eunice Johnson was a living legend. The magazine was a staple in my house growing up. My mother still gets it each month. Ly on that her early years were spent in a segregated United States where everything was divided between White and Black. As I grew older, I saw the magazine as marginal and felt that it didn't satisfy my growing appetite for the "best and latest" of what was in the larger world.

The text message, from a senior Telegraph executive, rang alarm bells immediately: "I see you've set the cat among the pigeons on Twitter. Great material for [Private] Eye. " It was Thursday evening at London's City University and I had just finished answering questions about "entrepreneurial journalism" at a news:rewired conference. More than 30 years after starting out in journalism, was this really how my Fleet Street career was ending? Standing in a lavatory, checking my BlackBerry, wading through tweets about a brief, off-the-cuff contribution to a debate with 200 journalists, students and academics.

I had mentioned, almost as an aside, that I was quitting as head of digital development with Telegraph Media Group to join Cogapp, a leading digital agency. Inevitably, my views are coloured by personal experience. I never realised my disclosure that, after a year with the Telegraph, I was again abandoning Fleet Street would cause such a storm. Golden Globes Well Played/Fug Carpet: Christina Hendricks and Ja. Garance Dore. Garance Doré is possibly the fashion world’s most closely followed blogger. Her site, Une Fille Comme Moi (“A girl like me,” which can be found at garancedore.fr) clocks an average of 50,000 hits per day. A recent uploaded picture of a pair of tawny Vivienne Westwood multistrap pirate boots generated more than 225 comments; if they weren’t a cult item before, they certainly are now.

“Garance is our daily bread,” remarked one French fashion editor who preferred to remain anonymous. Doré’s mix of portrait photography, illustrations, collages, and stream-of-consciousness writing—whether she’s waxing on the conflicting pull of “simplicity and flats” versus “dizzying thigh-high boots” (the latter worn in the manner of French Vogue’s Emmanuelle Alt) or the pleasure of eating two cupcakes after a day of greens—has given the fashion world en masse a girl crush. Doré originally hails from Corsica. REBECCA VOIGHT: The spring collections just ended in Paris. Did you attend all the fashion weeks? Why I hate fashion | Tanya Gold. A confession – it's been stalking me for years now, this crawling disdain for fashion; the certainty that it is not an ally but an enemy. The older I am, the more disenchanted I am with what is meant to make us beautiful. Now, at 36, I believe it is one of the ultimate evils in the universe, along with yoghurt.

It should have its own Death Star. Put simply, I hate fashion. You may say that I am bitter. Not at all. I decided to write this piece late last year, when I read that a 16-year-old girl wearing high-heeled shoes had fallen between the carriages of a train in West Sussex. Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City 'worshipped shoes instead of a god'. This was different from the usual Fashion Death, where a model has a heart attack on the catwalk, because she lives on grapes. I thought about that young woman for days; I couldn't forget her. Can't you ignore it, you may ask? I discovered fashion when I was 13. I didn't give in. But the seduction continued.

It’s Tough Being A Fashion Writer During A Global Disaster | Col. You can sympathize with Guy Trebay, the incredibly talented fashion writer at the New York Times.

With the news focused on Haiti and Leno/Conan, no one is all that interested in fashion, even with the debut of season seven of Project Runway. So you turn on the TV, catch Anderson Cooper carrying kids to safety on CNN in his tight, black t-shirt, and think: now there’s a story. Trebay’s analysis of Cooper as fashion-forward inspiration for other male reporters on the runways–or body-scattered rubble–of Port Au Prince had an interesting premise. It’s hard to resist a Fashion Institute of Technology museum director talking about the “semiotics of fashion” in discussing relief workers. And there’s no doubt that Cooper has distinguished himself as the go-to reporter of his generation when it comes to covering disasters. Still, it all felt a little awkward. Trebay notes that Cooper’s sartorial choices have influenced fellow CNN reporter Dr.

When Plum Sykes was a little girl, she dreamed of growing up to be a princess and a journalist. Being a clever sort, she grew up to be both. As Anna Wintour's star fashion writer for the past eight years at American Vogue, the glossiest of the glossies, she has also become a fixture on the Manhattan social scene - a princess in the modern sense. (Somewhat less predictably, she also harboured a brief childhood dream of becoming "a merchant banker, can you believe it?

" But, hey, it was the 1980s.) Sykes, who is 34, moved to New York from her native Britain in 1996, and has been charting the lives of Manhattan's upper classes, its Park Avenue Princesses, or PAPs, to use Sykes's phrase, ever since. "New York is still very much like the city you read about in Edith Wharton and Henry James, with all those social rules and girls wanting to get married," she says, in a voice that goes with her childhood nickname. (Her real name is Victoria, but she has stuck with Plum.) But no matter. London Fashion Week AW 2010 – New Digital Era Spells Trouble for. The world of fashion writing is changing. Like all forms of media of late, fashion, in particular, has seen a huge surge in the numbers of both skilled and unskilled practitioners making and developing their own niche or mainstream fashion blogs.

At the opening day of London Fashion Week yesterday, I witnessed at first hand the remarkable task that this seemingly unstoppable rise in the numbers of entry-level fashion journalists has posed those involved in fashion PR, namely: who is who among the bloggers; and how to stop those who aren’t from invading our press rooms, and eating all the food. After Sarah Brown spoke following the opening catwalk of LFW AW 2010, there was a battle to the press room not seen since my last visit to a rugby international where understandably bulky former-players-turned-mouthpiece’s-of-the-sport jostled light-heartedly for free drinks after the event.

For now, how about “only those in Google News allowed.” Ten rules for writing fiction. Elmore Leonard: Using adverbs is a mortal sin 1 Never open a book with weather. If it's only to create atmosphere, and not a character's reaction to the weather, you don't want to go on too long. The reader is apt to leaf ahead looking for people. There are exceptions. If you happen to be Barry Lopez, who has more ways than an Eskimo to describe ice and snow in his book Arctic Dreams, you can do all the weather reporting you want. 2 Avoid prologues: they can be annoying, especially a prologue following an introduction that comes after a foreword. 3 Never use a verb other than "said" to carry dialogue. 4 Never use an adverb to modify the verb "said" ... he admonished gravely. 5 Keep your exclamation points under control. 6 Never use the words "suddenly" or "all hell broke loose". 7 Use regional dialect, patois, sparingly. 8 Avoid detailed descriptions of characters, which Steinbeck covered. 10 Try to leave out the part that readers tend to skip.
