It’s the moment you’ve all been waiting for*: my first ever book, How Not To Be A Supermodel, is available for pre-order! Here! An actual book that you will be able to hold in your hands. Or, if you prefer my dulcet tones, listen to with your ears. You’ve loved my revealing life updates, over…
The phoenix has landed, the cat is on the lead, the dog is at the dinner table and the chicken is a cover star. Sounds like a slightly odd lesson from one of those secondary school French listening tapes (ecoutez et repetez!) but it is, in fact, my latest magazine shoot. We went quite off…
Last week, during a day of press appointments for my new dry shampoo (Colab Active: it’s amazing, watch this space for more info) I had the pleasure of meeting up with Career Girl Daily, an online magazine for career-minded women. Naively, because I’ve never really done a press day before, I thought that people would only ask me…
I am absolutely terrible at keeping track of interviews and little features that I’ve done. I do collect the clippings and links, but actually the most efficient way of archiving them is to pop them into the website and so here’s my latest Q&A, recorded for posterity. It’s for the very glossy and lovely Canary Wharf magazine, and you…
I completely forgot to link to the interview that I did for MinMax Beauty earlier on this week – if you want to see the actual magazine shoot and official behind-the-scenes video then please click here, but if you’ve already seen those and want to read my interview then you can do so by clicking…
A few weeks ago I did a shoot for the amazing new online magazine MinMax Beauty. MinMax is the brainchild of top photographer Elisabeth Hoff and is as glossy and gorgeous as magazines get; every shoot is perfectly executed and has some kind of twist or unusual element to it. My story has just come out and I’m so…
Thank to to the lovely readers and viewers who directed me to the Vogue Australia website yesterday; there I was, in full technicolor, massaging my face with a balmy cleanser! Very honoured to be pulled out as the creator of one of the “best skincare tutorials” – I must give this video another watch. I’ve…
Nosey parkers take note: I’m on What’s In My Handbag, which is a brilliant website that delves into people’s bags to see what kind of stuff they have floating about. WIMH.com ticks far too many enjoyment boxes for me to handle – it’s like a kind of Room 101 but with beauty products and snippets of information about people. And…
I am thrilled to report that last night I won the Social Star award from Proctor & Gamble at their annual beauty and grooming awards ceremony. It’s always a joy to have your hard work recognised; it’s even more of a joy when the prize is an extremely large bottle of top quality champers. If this is…
I told you I was in Company Magazine wearing a pineapple upon my head! Proof displayed above! It’s the January issue, out now, and you can watch some behind-the-scenes footage by either clicking here or pressing play on the video screen below, if you can see one. Sidenote: the t-shirt I have on here is…
I’m on the front cover of Company Magazine – can you see me? I’m the one holding half a plastic pineapple over the top of my head! I have been featured in Company as part of their social media special issue and there’s a little interview in there as well as picture with aforementioned pineapple…
This week I’ve been interviewed by the lovely Anna Hunter from Get The Gloss – she grilled me on everything from beauty bugbears to my ultimate fantasy guest blogger (spoiler, it’s Henry VIII). If you want to find out more about what I do all day, how I choose the products that feature here on A Model Recommends and…
The new issue of TWO Magazine is out, featuring another one of the gorgeous fashion shoots that Sam Chapman (from Pixiwoo) and I did in Palm Springs. I think that it might be my favourite one yet – I love the styling and the curly hair. The dress above is from TK Maxx Gold Label…
I did an interview with The Muse TV for their Want That Job section. If you’d like a little more insight into my modelling life then this should do the trick! (I haven’t talked about actual modelling for a while now but I have something exciting in the making, so if you’re after behind-the-scenes tales and industry secrets then do not…
I was delighted to see this lovely write-up on A Model Recommends – it’s on Refinery29.com which is a new discovery for me. I’ve just spent about two hours trawling the archives when I should have been doing something completely different! You can read the full-size mention here.
I’ve written a rather tongue-in-cheek feature for TWO Magazine – it’s about model posing. In particular, that faraway, wide-eyed, innocent look that you see in many a beauty campaign. (Think Kate Moss in the Obsession campaigns of the nineties, or otherwise, think Bambi.) In the feature I run through a few steps towards achieving the “innocent look” –…
Youtube has changed its channel page format (to something really quite annoying and ugly, but hey-ho) and when people arrive at my channel who haven’t subscribed, Youtube plays them a little video. Youtube have called this a “trailer”. Because I couldn’t bear the thought of having to record an “all about me!” introduction, I decided…
Thanks so much to Hadley Freeman for my lovely mention in The Guardian last week along with Meg from Lips So Facto and Zoe from The London Lipgloss. Apparently, this site is like Ronseal – it does what it says on the tin. That pleases me greatly, despite the fact that I now have at…
