Beauty Icon - Charlotte Rampling








OK, so she's been fêted nearly to death by the fashion set I know. But I stumbled across some rare images of the fabulous Miss Rampling and couldn't resist sharing. Is it that sensuous upper lip, slightly larger than the lower? Those spiky teeth, giving an edge of something sinister, almost animalistic? Or that knowing glance which seems to gaze right through your soul? Whatever it is, we just can't seem to get enough of Charlotte.... a mesmerizing beauty.

Victoria Stella








Here's a sneak preview of an upcoming shoot for Stella - The Sunday Telegraph. Our model was Victoria Tuaz @ Elite - Who looks equally fabulous in androgynous suits or showing off her playful & feminine side as on our shoot. Victoria doesn't stop smiling and is a joy to work with. Oh, and she can look very much like Kim Basinger!

Also a backstage shot of my hair stylist Peter playing around on set. He's not really as pervy as he looks here, obviously....

I'm a huge fan of Chanel products and their nail colours are always great. Hot on the heels of sell-out shade Jade (now selling on eBay for £80 a bottle!) comes their latest offering, 'Particuliere', which was used on our shoot. The perfect mix of quirky and elegant, Chanel are on to another winner. Get in there quick, ladies!

Anish Kapoor




Sculptor Anish Kapoor had a major retrospective at London's Royal Academy. To see is work in the flesh rather than in photographs is just breathtaking. If ever you have the chance to see one of his shows I highly recommend it.

Miss Mia



On a recent shoot with model Mia Frilander from IMG, here posing with fashion-forward studio dog Trixie. Although the shoot required Mia to show some bad-ass attitude, she is actually a very sweet girl. She also has some of the most amazing legs you're ever likely to come across.
