Sommaire pour Issue 557 de Grazia

‘2016 is definitely the year I’ll get fit/stopsmoking/stop drinking/save money.’ Err… Sometimes, it feels like our New Year’s resolutions are destined to fail before we’ve even given them a go. But Grazia is putting an end to that right now. OK, so our hot list on page 54 involves spending your cash rather than hoarding it (sorry!), but we do guarantee you’ll want to follow them all – and they’ll definitely tick the immediate life-improvement box. This issue we also examine the most intriguing new relationship trends for next year: dating (Uber-style) on page 36, cuffing (page 21) and schaden-friending, on page 44. And finally, we speak to Jennifer Lawrence – Oscar-winner, pay-gap warrior and general Grazia office crush – about her relationship with Chris Martin, body-shaming and becoming fearless,…

Photos:Tru n k Archive/Ondre a B a rbe PICTURE THE SCENE, it's a cold, dark winter's night and you're swiping throughTinder alone in bed with only a hot water bottle for warmth. If only you'd had the foresight to ‘cuff' a guy in mid-autumn, you wouldn't be in this sorry state. ‘Cuffing season' is well and truly in full swing, people, and no, I don't mean actually handcuffing a man to your bed for six months (because, FYI, that's totally illegal). It's the period of autumn and winter when singletons find a partner to hibernate with until the spring, whether we like them that much or not. And it's coming our way - like so many…

IF THE START OF a new year has you itching to clear out your wardrobe, here’s some serious interiors inspiration. We’ve crowned these three closets – brought to us by those kind folks at The Coveteur – as the best we’ve seen in 2015. The site, which explores the homes of street style stars and tastemakers, has cost us hours in envious scrolling. Cue walls of heels, a pair of sunglasses for every day of the year and almost as many bags as have graced Grazia’s fashion cupboard. Each of these obsessives’ wardrobes reveals not just their taste, but also the style quirks unique to their city – from luxe labels in LA and a kaleidoscope of colour in Antwerp to London’s eclectic glamour. The one thing they all have…

Step up and ask yourself the following questions: 1 Do I actually like this person? 2 Will I hurt anyone if I unfriend them on Facebook? 3 Have I arranged to see them in the past five years? 4 Do I feel happy for them when things seem to go right in their life? If the answer to all of the above is a resounding no, close your eyes and push that ‘unfriend’ button. Now sit back and bask in your moral superiority (before running to your best mate’s house, who is still friends with your frenemy, to see if you’ve missed anything laughable on her newsfeed). Actually,don’tdo that.…

THIS SEASON’S CATWALKS embraced natural hair texture in all its fabulous forms – and from kinks to curls, we wanted the lot. But as every woman with curls knows, managing, maintaining and styling natural texture is easier said than done. So we are thrilled to introduce SheaMoisture’s Coconut & Hibiscus Hair Collection, which has been specially formulated to treat and style thick, curly hair. Because who wouldn’t want to keep curls smooth, shiny, brilliantly bouncy and well-defined? It all comes down to natural and certified organic coconut oil, which hydrates the hair, silk protein to keep it super-soft and neem oil, which makes light work of combatting frizz. We’ll swish to that! DEFINE NOURISH CLEANSE “FIGHT OFF THE FRIZZ WITH THESE SUPER-SMOOTHING STARS – AND SAY HELLO TO WONDROUS WAVES”…

Photos: Ch a nn e l 4 Pictures, Rex Features, BBC Pi ctures, Landm a rk After an inter-channel bidding war, the Cold War spy saga Deutschland 83 finally makes it (legally) to our shores. It’s a sublimely produced piece of television. What you need to know on the surface – and this is very much need-to-know TV – is that handsome young East German Martin Rauch (Jonas Nay in the star-making lead) is recruited by his Marlene Dietrich-esque aunt Leonora to work for the Stasi over the border. Deutschland 83 is much more than a routine thriller, though. Instant flashes of an art department working at full throttle to pluck Mad Men levels of innate style from the period piece are littered over the screen. This being 1983, the…

Now trending on Instagram, this clever trans-seasonal look pairs two of our favourite winter staples: the thigh-high boot and the xxL knit. With just a flash of thigh showing, it’s a forgot-your-trousers moment, with the oversized silhouette on top balancing out the foxy factor – and leaving extra room for festive weight gain! Take your cue from Mossy in a slouchy roll neck and stacked-heel boot, or pair your extra-long legwear with a sporty sweat in homage to Kourtney Kardashian. Because trousers are so last year...…

NEVER WAS A RELATIONSHIP more love/hate than ours with office email. One minute we want to be ‘looped in’, the next we’re cursing being CC’d on a message with several hundred others to say ‘Thanks’ to the original (fool) sender. We want your Kanye memes on Friday afternoon, but we will kill you if you send that shizz on Monday morning. Add in ‘mailbox is full’ alerts, constant out-of-offices, your mum sending you lame ‘scroll down’ jokes and the horror of a post-holiday inbox, and it’s no surprise that a recent survey showed that office email is the bane of most workers’ lives. But change is afoot. With a growing number of companies embracing new communication methods, tech experts – me included – are predicting the end of traditional workplace…

Because if he has his way, their very first house together as a couple will also have a granny annexe for his mum, Gloria Campano. Graziahas learned that the couple of almost six months are currently house-hunting in New York - and on the top of their wish list is space for Mum. Nothing like being a third wheel in your own relationship, eh, Irina? Still, Bradley does have form. He and Gloria are practically joined at the hip, and she regularly travels to see her son from her home in Philadelphia. According to one source, ‘Bradley is increasingly aware that she's getting older and he wants her to move in with him…

1. Make a list and focus on one thing at a time. Multitasking is the main cause of stress, lack of focus, poor concentration, fatigue and anxiety. 2. Take a breath when you’re overwhelmed. Simply drop your shoulders and become aware of your chest rising and falling. 3. Have regular tea breaks and leave your desk for your full lunch break to encourage the body into a more relaxed state. 4. Move. Even stretching at your desk helps reduce muscular pain, tension and circulation problems. 5. Stay hydrated. Dehydration adds pressure and stress to the body’s systems.…

A HEALTHY OUTLOOK Scenic surroundings make us feel better, a new study has found. Researchers cross-referenced UK health data with scenic ratings and found: the prettier the place, the better people's health. So ditch that detox and book a room with a view. REST AND RECHARGE If you long for the end-of-yoga-class Savasana – that blissful few minutes spent lying on your back (trying not to think about food) – try restorative yoga, the latest trend sweeping studios. Described by yoga guru Nahid de Belgeonne as ‘supported and conscious rest’ – achieved with long-held ‘opening and releasing poses’ – it promotes relaxation, reduces stress and recharges the mind. Look out for classes (also called Yin yoga) at your local studio, or head to London to try Nahid’s one-on-one sessions (£195…

In Silver Linings Playbook and American Hustle, the director and actress have established the most exciting creative partnership in Hollywood today. Now they collaborate again in inspirational true story Joy – the unlikely tale of the resourceful, divorced mother-of-two who overcomes adversity to build a business empire based on her own ingenious inventions. Growing up with a dysfunctional family in a generic Rust Belt town, Joy (Lawrence) gains encouragement only from her doting grandmother (Diane Ladd). And when she invents her Miracle Mop, all the forces seem aligned against her ever launching it on to the market. But when she…

F.R.S FOR RESTLESS SLEEPERS Italian designer Francesca Ruffini was one of the most talked about newcomers at Milan Fashion Week. The brains behind new pyjama label For Restless Sleepers has always had her pyjamas tailor-made. When she started to wear them out both during the day and night, she realised if she used fabrics not associated with PJs she would create a label that could be worn anytime. THE THREE GRACES When it comes to nightwear, Catherine Johnson says, ‘It elevates the way we feel about ourselves. Luxurious dressing is not just for day – after all, don’t you want to wake up feeling beautiful at the time when you need inspiration the most?’ This is the idea behind the London label featuring nightdresses you can wear to the beach…

DIOR THE LOUCHE PARTY LOUNGER As seen at: Julien Macdonald, Karen Walker, Carolina Herrera, Christian Dior, Blugirl How to work it: jewel tones are the only way to go when a glitzy party demands high-octane glamour. For a look that out-sparkles the champagne, keep rich shades confined to one feature and ensure everything else is muted and neutral. Whether you opt for glossy fuchsia lips, playful turquoise liner or enchanting amethyst eyes, the trick is to pair them with polished skin and high-shine hair. To achieve the latter, simply run a little taming shine serum through the lengths and ends once you’ve perfected your style. Wear with: 1920s-inspired silhouettes and a Prada-inspired bejewelled barrette. THE COUNTRYSIDE COMFORT-SEEKER As seen at: Chloé, Michael Kors, Isabel Marant, Alberta Ferretti, J Crew How…

A VERY BUMPY RIDE I’ve just read ‘I hated being pregnant’ (14 December) and had to share my experiences. I had a rough pregnancy, too – nausea for the first 22 weeks, heartburn, carpal tunnel syndrome, pelvic girdle pain, nosebleeds and plantar fasciitis. My mantra throughout was ‘one and done’, as this was going to be my first and only pregnancy. We’d gone through four years of infertility and our daughter was conceived by ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection), so in some ways I felt I shouldn’t complain. I knew lots of people who had also struggled to get pregnant and I felt I was rubbing their faces in it if I complained. Nine months later, I’d say I’m 95% recovered, and wouldn’t you know it, we’re talking about doing it…
