It’s a cliché, we know, but it’s impossible to start a new year without thinking about new beginnings, life changes – or fresh goals to work towards. And if any year was going to spur us into reassessment it was 2016… So in this issue, we have scoured the globe for the best jobs in the world. Meet the people doing them on page 36. The best bit – they’re all within reach. Read and be inspired. And if you haven’t heard of her already, we introduce you to comedy’s new high priestess Katherine Ryan on page 44. She’s already conquered the male-dominated panel show circuit – and now she’s set to take over your prime-time TV viewing. The beauty team bring you the hottest fitness trends that are set…

AT THE START OF 2016, Meghan Markle was best known for Suits , the legal drama in which she plays Rachel Zane. At its close, she was a household name and Britain’s most googled actress – thanks in no small part to her highly publicised relationship with Prince Harry. By all accounts, 2017 promises to be no less of a whirlwind. The romance, which began in the summer, has taken the world by surprise and is moving so quickly that some of Harry’s friends are predicting an engagement within the next 12 months. ‘I haven’t seen him happier. We all adore Meghan, she is super-sweet and we are all hooked on Suits , which Harry has insisted we all watch,’ one of the prince’s inner circle recently told me. Photos:…

Photos: Alamy, Rex Features RIGHT NOW, MY UNDERARM HAIR is so long it’s practically plaitable, my legs look like they belong to the Yeti, and my bikini line is truly Amazonian. And you know what? It’s glorious. In fact, I am finding it so satisfying and cosy that I’m hailing it the new hygge (the Danish trend for being snug) – personal hygge or hairy hygge, if you will. For years, I hacked at my legs and armpits with half-blunt razors in awkward positions in the shower, and paid angry women in salons extortionate amounts to rip my hairs out with hot wax. But recently, I decided enough was enough. It began with my bikini line – which I’ve been leaving au naturel ever since I concluded that any man…

Photos: PA, Rex, Fame Flynet, G etty, Instagram.com/mileycyrus IT’S OFFICIAL – the A-list dating pool has been reduced to a puddle. At least for Kristen Stewart who, having exhausted Hollywood’s supply of hot stars, is now revisiting past loves. Over the holiday season, the actor rekindled her romance with model Stella Maxwell (who has also dated Miley Cyrus). Kristen was first linked to her back in May, just days after splitting from the singer Soko. Her recent dalliance with Stella means the end of her romance with Annie Clark, who has returned to her own ex, Cara Delevingne (who once snogged Miley). Keeping up? Good. According to one source, ‘Annie started seeing Kristen while she was still with Cara, which was a big factor in their split. But Cara never…

Photos: Getty Images HAS THERE EVER been a figure in US politics like Ivanka Trump? This doesn’t just refer to the 35-year-old’s position in her father Donald Trump’s administration, although even that is unprecedented enough to still not have a name. When Trump takes office this month, she will occupy the First Lady’s office in the East Wing, apparently now re-named the Office of the First Family; she will perform some of the First Lady’s duties, including the primary duty of White House hostess; she will also, according to CNN, ‘advise her father on issues including family leave and climate change’, although Ivanka, like her father, has no government experience, and no expertise on either issue. That’s not the weird part. The office of First Lady has always been mostly…

IF YOU’VE HEARD QUITE enough about Brexit, Bake Off, Balls and Trump during the past year, it should be refreshing to look ahead and see what the stars have in store for us during 2017. The most remarkable – and hopeful – planetary link this year is a positive connection between Saturn and Uranus. These two heavenly bodies remain in their same signs – Sagittarius and Aries – until the last days of 2017. And the reason this cosmic combination is so intriguing is that Saturn represents great care and caution, while Uranus is associated with daring and inventiveness. So what they co-create provides us with an extraordinary mix of discipline and rebelliousness. This should serve us well on a global, national and personal level so that we can best…

Shopping: Polly Knight. Photos: Getty Images, MEGA, Rex Features, Fame Flynet  PICTURE A LEG with spray-on, thigh-high black boots that lace like a corset all the way up to there – and who do you think of? Any of the fembot Kardashian Klan, of course. Now think of a well-turned ankle in a pair of classic nude courts – that’ll be the Duchess of Cambridge in her LK Bennetts. And Kate Moss? Absolutely no question: it’s got to be the pointy, kitten-heeled pixie boot, preferably loaded with buckles. In fact, think of any style icon and, without exception, their shoe personality is instantly identifiable. Anna Wintour: strappy Manolos. Sienna Miller: chunky platforms. Victoria Beckham… actually VB has had a shoe-dentity crisis of late, switching her signature sky-high black Louboutins for…

Photos: Stocksy DO YOU EVER wonder what life would be like if you didn’t drink? Whether you’d feel healthier, lose weight and have fewer wrinkles? How it would affect your social life? Your bank balance? And, of course, the big question: are you currently drinking too much? Then in my books you are ‘sober curious’. If you’re embarking on a dry January, chances are this line of questioning isn’t alien to you. It’s an internal dialogue I know well – having been a constant backdrop to the six-year journey I have spent slowly undoing the deeply ingrained habitual drinking patterns I learned as a rookie journalist in London in my twenties. When I moved to NYC five years ago, I was the quintessential work-hard-play-hard party girl, drinking socially four or…

DOMINIC LION AND MAXI AYLWIN have almost everything in place for their upcoming wedding in March. The church is booked, the venue is sorted, the caterer has been paid. But there’s one last item to check off the ‘wed-min’ to-do list: couples’ counselling. For the past five weeks, Dominic and Maxi have been in therapy – they’re one of a growing number of couples seeking professional help before tying the knot, to prevent problems further down the line. Couples’ counselling is normally associated with long-term marriages on the brink of divorce, not loved-up newly-weds-to-be in their twenties. But every Monday night, Dominic and Maxi have met in a church hall full of couples to spend three hours working on their relationship. It might sound premature but, according to a survey…

Why we love it These chic knots are surprisingly simple to construct. Even less crafty stylists should be able to master them in minutes. Ways to work it Extreme shine is key: rake a deep-conditioning mask through wet hair, followed by a shine serum. Then use a comb to create that middle parting and twist the ends back on themselves, securing each with a pin.…

Head shot: Anna Huix. Hair and make-up: Sophie Higginson “PART OF ME WANTED HIM TO KNOW THAT I’D TURNED HIS ASSHOLE BEHAVIOUR INTO MY CREATIVE PROPERTY” I HAVEN’T BEEN entirely straight with you. I didn’t know how to be as I’m worried you’ll judge me – and badly. Just before Christmas, I mentioned ‘The Ghost’ – a man of years gone by who didn’t treat me very well, but who’d been in touch and whom I was contemplating giving a second chance. The short version of our history is this: four years ago I was in a year-long vow of celibacy because my ex-boyfriend had left me to marry my best friend. Following that, I’d been a bit promiscuous and wild, and a year out of dating was just what…

EMILY WITT’S FUTURE SEX ‘My book is a mix of reportage, essay and personal memoir. People often think the future of sex is virtual reality, but I also wanted to explore how we think about monogamy and having children. Writing the book was about letting myself consider ideas I hadn’t previously. For instance, I never thought internet porn was for me, but I’m no longer scared of it now; I kind of like it, which surprised me. Writing this book changed me; I’m much more open to possibilities now.’ KATIE KHAN’S HOLD BACK THE STARS ‘When my publisher first gave me the hardback of my book, I burst into tears. It was a real thing, not just a Word document. It’s about a couple falling in love in space. Back…

Taboo opens with a pace-setting ecclesiastical moment. Returned from his travels in Africa to 1814 London, James Delaney (Tom Hardy, you’ll be delighted to hear) removes two farthings from his dead father’s corpse in an elaborate Victorian mortuary and begs penance. ‘Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned,’ he mutters, at his brutish best. What those sins may be makes up the bedrock of this rampant, ludicrous, profane and 100% lustful period drama. A guaranteed hit with fans of Peaky Blinders (with whom it shares staff, cast, ideology and a certain indie touch), Penny Dreadful and Hardy’s perfect face, it’s not quite clear what the actual taboo of Taboo is from the first episode. It could be incest, mental illness, patricide or any number of box-ticking deadly sins that are…

Topshop and Topshop Unique: topshop.com AS THE SAYING GOES, it’s the thought that counts. But when it comes to Christmas presents, sometimes the thought is so far into left field that it’s practically in another dimension. A dimension where 20-somethings wear flat caps and new homeowners need mug trees. If you are one of those lucky, rare people who unwrapped spot-on gifts at Christmas, then good for you, carry on with your day. Nothing to see here. But if you are of the aforementioned flat-cap club, then we’ve got another saying to share with you: if you want a job done properly, do it yourself. Dad gave you novelty knitwear?

Photos: Getty Images, Shutterstock Welcome to January, official month of the gym-ble-brag™ , a word I’ve just invented for a Thing I did not. Gym-ble-bragging relates to the shameless peacocking of one’s exercise regime, probably on social media, possibly with a gym selfie (you, beguilingly sweaty in your v best Lycra, hint of new musculature popping on your upper arm, faux self-deprecating caption to make you look like you’re not taking yourself all that seriously, only: you definitely are) or via the casual sharing of your latest run stats, or with a matey tweet to your personal trainer (on whom you have an embarrassingly transparent crush, which is why you are currently spending more dosh than you probably should on Sweaty Betty’s finest). Gym-ble-bragging can happen offline too. That’s how…

WHETHER IT’S DOWN to Ferrero Rocher-induced weight gain or just semi-hibernation through the winter months, the start of a new year acts as a much-needed kick up the backside to be more active. But with box sets still calling, we need a little extra incentive to put down the remote. Cue Oasis’ athleisure debut: their signature floral prints are reinvented into sport silhouettes, with the experts at Pineapple Studio lending their knowledge of all things physical to the mix. Ready to sweat? Hit the floor in a matching set that’s as practical as it is pretty.

*Available at most Boots stores and online at boots.com until 17 January IT’S NO SECRET that some long-wear foundations of old had a tendency towards heaviness and caking. But not so now: Max Factor’s marvellously touch-proof Lasting Performance Foundation harnesses three separate oil-absorbers to set the foundation and provide a flawless and subtle-looking finish that lasts for hours. Because, frankly, who wants to compromise? ‘Achieving a natural-looking base that lasts all day has previously often involved two or more products and countless steps,’ says Caroline Barnes, Max Factor UK make-up artist. ‘Whether I’m working with a model or a bride on her wedding day, I know that this clever foundation won’t cake or smudge and will look beautifully natural all day long.’ And this, we think you’ll agree, is pretty…

My sister Hannah [above]. We come from a tight-knit family, and her opinion counts for everything. We’re incredibly close. What’s your biggest regret? Taking things too seriously when I was younger and worrying about things that don’t really matter. It’s a waste of time. What’s your biggest extravagance? My flat. It’s the first thing I bought that I can’t hold. What is your type? People who don’t take themselves too seriously. They have to be kind, too. When was the last time you were embarrassed? I’m permanently embarrassed. The other day I was talking to someone and just tripped backwards…
