Cher Lloyd for Flavor Cover Shoot with Bella Howard.

Am more than slightly in love with this Mishka Vintage Victorian velvet cape.

Jessie Ware in Worth Couture, for The Hunger, shot by Rankin.

Rankin’s studio is literally around the corner from mine: I love that the corner of North London is both curiously anonymous, yet quietly fabulous..  I love London; hope you like this shoot.

Out take Beauty

Sometimes it really is the shots the magazines decide not to run: either they don’t feel they fit the theme, or perhaps they are too risky, or not enough: whatever the reasonings, across my styling career, it has frequently been those privately cherished precious shots which readers of magazines I have worked for never got to see.  That’s what is great about the exposure of a blog and the worldwide web: now we can share what we who were on those shoots loved, and be sure that it is seen…

Gwyneth Paltrow: Oscars red carpet 2012, dress by Tom Ford.

White reflects all colours; it is purity, bridal, innocent and clean.  Like stark modern architecture, what I loved about this look was how it was a catwalk breath of fresh air on a normally overdone LA red carpet.  The cape adds confidence and drama with it’s strong silhouette, outlining a streamlined body con beauty of a dress.  This is how to stand apart on the walk of fame – in a good way – see that smirk, she knows she looks good!  As a stylist, I would be delighted to have a client allow me to let her be this brave and realise that by combining a strong shape with a simple line and colour you maximise your best dressed list results; Tom Ford for this I salute you.

Hanna P. Behind The Scenes: From Yesterday's Shoot with Alice Rosati

I’ve had the best of work weeks, shooting Eva Herzigova, then Erin O’Connor and then Yasmin Le Bon, slightly overawed by their beauty and their down-to-earth loveliness: you know how when work is the best of fun and the best way to spend the day (bar cuddling my baby boy of course!).  Those shoots were for Corduroy the fantastic independent magazine from the States created by Peter Ash Lee, and whom I shot Lily Cole and Sir Ben Kingsley a few months back for the last issue (out now).

The day after the Yasmin shoot, it was another vibe entirely: ping-pang hot colours on the edge of the east – Hackney Wick – my version of the end of the world; albeit one filled with artists and wind chimes for a shoot with Alice Rosati and Hanna P, with Angelo on hair and my dear friend Sarah Reygate painting colorful eyes on a winter’s day.  The story is out very soon, hope you enjoy this sneak preview.

Coco Chanel at 18 Place Vendome.

Last week saw me in Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains, this week I trip-hopped over to Paris for a shoot for Harper’s Bazaar China with the lovely and talented Alan Gelati at the Chanel jewellery boutique’s private space above the store on the Place Vendome.  Gazing out across the square to the Ritz on the otherside, or poring over the amazing designs, yet again I appreciated just how clever Coco Chanel was.  The jewellery from 80 years ago still seem utterly modern, with diamonds set to look like the cobbles of her childhood orphanage home, the cleverest of fastenings, her myth tied into their very design.
