PHOTOS: ED MILES, GETTY, INSTARAM.COM/BELLAHADID Not for any of the multiple reasons that just sprung to your mind, but rather because I do this one deeply immoral thing you don’t know about (yet) every damn day, and I know I should stop because it’s, like, really, really bad – ethically bankrupt, totally indefensible and (worst of all) totally unnecessary – but I can’t. I shan’t. I mean: I might. I should. Ah, who am I kidding. I won’t. What is it? Only the greatest contemporary lifestyle sin available to middle-class woman! I’ll confess all, but you’ll have to come closer – I only dare whisper the words for fear of attracting the opprobrium of le tout internet. Right. Here goes. (Don’t hate me. Promise you won’t hate me?) The terribly…

PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES THE FASHION INDUSTRY is the latest sphere of business to be hit with allegations of sexual abuse. Last week, The New York Times lifted the lid on the sexual exploitation of models and photographic assistants, with allegations that expose two of the grand hommes of fashion photography, Bruce Weber and Mario Testino. Accusations brought to light by the newspaper against Weber include 15 current and former male models who described a pattern of sexually coercive behaviour, which centred around a bizarre ritual of breathing exercises. Days later, the Business of Fashion revealed four further allegations dating as far back as 1982. ‘I remember [Weber] putting his fingers in my mouth, and him grabbing my privates,’ model Robyn Sinclair told The New York Times. ‘We never had sex…

PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES, COLEMAN-RAYNER, SPLASH NEWS PARIS: the city of red wine, baguettes, croissants – and now Rihanna, who is moving there with her billionaire boyfriend Hassan Jameel. According to a well-placed insider, the couple have been house-hunting in the French capital, which is apparently the ‘perfect midway-point’ between New York, where Rihanna is often based for work, and Saudi Arabia, where Hassan is from (he is the deputy president and vice chairman at Abdul Latif Jameel, one of the largest businesses in the world). ‘Paris is a six-hour flight from both New York and Saudi Arabia so it’s a good compromise,’ the source told Grazia . ‘At first, they considered London, but Rihanna has been looking for a property in Paris for a while and they’ve spent a lot…

PHOTO: JUSTIN STEPHENS/AUGUST Last week, an anonymous account of a date with Aziz Ansari made headlines, divided opinion, and left his career hanging in the balance. Writer Jane Mulkerrins gives her provo cative take… EVER WOKEN UP in an unfamiliar bed, jittery with revulsion and self-loathing, wishing you could delete the previous 12 hours? Me too. Ever been back at a guy’s place, dress half off, but rapidly going off the whole idea, and then… well, just gritted your teeth and gone through with it anyway? Yeah, also me too. We’ve (mostly) all been there. And there are some gnarly, negative emotions that often follow a night that went awry: regret, anger, humiliation, shame. But characterising a consensual act (albeit a joyless, unsatisfying one) as abuse or assault, is not…

WHAT DO YOU do when all of your friends can get pregnant but you can’t? Who do you turn to? This was the situation I found myself in over the last six months in the run-up to IVF. Because, after two-and-a-half years of trying and failing, I felt like I was the last woman standing. Yes, you have your partner, but when you’re both feeling a sense of shame and sadness, leaning on each other just cranks up the pressure. Family and friends are there, but often find it hard to know what to say. I felt I was becoming a burden in my failure. So, to channel my emotions, I wrote a book, processing the years of dismay into a comedy called TRYING. It was cathartic, but a solitary…

PHOTO: ILHAN EROGLU @ILHAN1077 VIEW POINT Dancing House, Prague In among the grand baroque, art nouveau and gothic architecture for which the Czech capital is famous is this modern gem. Inspired by the 1930s dancing stars Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, it was designed by architects Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunić; championed by Václav Havel, the country’s first post-communist era president, it symbolised democracy and hope for the future. Today the riverfront building houses a hotel (dancinghousehotel.com/en), top-floor restaurant and, in the summer, a free terrace with a fabulous vista of the city.…

THE ’90s TEEN ephemera of Rae Earl’s brilliant My Mad Fat Diary was Blur, thrift-shop adidas and snakebite. The ’90s nostalgia of Lisa McGee’s equally fabulous Derry Girls is Gina G, Union Jack T-shirts and alcopops. The trimmings may be different, but in so many pleasing regards, the song remains exactly the same. Erin Quinn (Saoirse Jackson: amazing) and her four supremely flaky high-school friends occupy the real-time battleground of the Irish Troubles. Because she and her magic pals are 16 years old, this is just the backcloth to their actual conflicts, like passing GCSEs, dead grandmas and losing their virginities. Erin and co’s lives are measured in Red Bull, hairspray and bickering as they organise what adulthood will one day look like. If they are a rolling news item,…

THE POWER JUGGLE Oh how we cheered as New Zealand’s PM Jacinda Ardern announced last week that she is pregnant, and fully intends to juggle starting a family with running a country. She’ll take six weeks off after the birth, when her deputy will step up, and return to work with her husband on childcare duty. Here in the UK, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and David Cameron all brought home newborns to Downing Street, but would they have been treated the same if they were women? Hopefully this precedent will empower not only female politicians, but all women stressing about juggling a baby with a big job. As Jacinda says, ‘I am not the first woman to multitask.’ Amen to that.…

PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES, REX FEATURES. * BY AXA PPP. ** ACCORDING TO PARENTING WEBSITE CHANNEL MUM LONELINESS. THINK OF that word and you’ll perhaps picture an elderly person nursing a cup of tea, as solitary as their day-to-day life. But when I read that the Government had appointed a Minister for Loneliness, I also imagined women like me, who also understand how it feels to be achingly lonely. A while ago, I wrote about my ‘weekend loneliness’ for Grazia. My life as a single woman was packed-out socially during the week but, on Saturday and Sunday, I could go 48 hours without seeing a soul. Loneliness for younger people seems to have easy solutions. We’re resilient, right? The social media generation. We can reach out though Instagram, take up a…

PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES IS A #GANNIGIRL (as the Danish contemporary label’s loyal fans are known) A: a fashion editor; B: your mum; C: an up-and-coming influencer; D: a grown-up gallerist? The correct answer is, of course, all of the above. ‘She can be everyone!’ says Ganni’s creative director Ditte Reffstrup. A fashion-forward brand that’s not too fashiony, Ganni is the ultimate democratic label, producing age-fluid designs that make a statement without overwhelming. ‘When we started out with Ganni, I felt that something was missing on the Scandinavian fashion scene,’ explains Ditte of her motivations behind the brand. ‘I sought a more playful, effortless approach to fashion. We wanted to create a brand without strict rules, but with a carefree and optimistic attitude to design and styling. We’re not afraid to…

PHOTOS: GETTY, REX. COLOR WOW: COLORWOW HAIR.COM. HERSHESONS: HERSHEONS.COM. TANGLE TEEZER: BOOTS.COM GONE ARE the days when it was hair sacrilege to leave the house with roots on show. Now, as everyone from Kate Moss to Marion Cotillard proved last week, it’s all about wearing them loud and proud. Whether you’re growing out a platinum-blonde mane or just haven’t had time to see your colourist, the trick is not to hide them, but rather make them a feature. ‘Texture, natural curl and a loose, undone look give blonde hair with dark roots a cool edge,’ says John Clark, hair colourist at John Frieda, ‘and, when worn in the right way, roots can also give the illusion of full, voluminous hair.’ So, spritz in a texture spray and rock those roots.…

LOUIS VUITTON IF YOU TURNED up to a fancy do wearing an 18th century jewel-encrusted frock coat with silky running shorts and hi-tech trainers, you’d be the height of style this spring. True, a jewel-encrusted frock coat is probably not something you have knocking about in your wardrobe and, since stealing one from the V&A’s costume archive is not an option, the alternative is to buy one from Louis Vuitton, the brand that is espousing this exact look for spring/summer 18. Except it’s not really much of an alternative when the price of said frock coat starts at £8,850. But the takeaway from the catwalk’s most desired (and least attainable) look sums up the big new shift in fashion: the powering up of sportswear and, most importantly, the mixing of…

YSL: YSLBEAUTY.CO.UK DIG OUT YOUR wand – lashes are back like never before. Forget that no-mascara look we’ve been trying (and failing) to master, now it’s all about making your lash line bold and spidery. The trick? Overload; that extra layer of mascara that used to be one too many is now just right. ‘It’s a brave amplification of lashes, more than a pretty approach,’ Terry Barber, director of make-up artistry at MAC, told us. ‘There’s a lot of attitude.’ Apply layer after layer of mascara along upper and lower lashes to create Twiggy-esque clusters (see MSGM for inspo) or cheat and fix falsies along the lower lash line, as at Jeremy Scott.…

ILLUSTRATION: BEN NEALE. PHOTOS: GETTY, SHUTTERSTOCK MY FRIEND MEL was drunk . Not just normal drunk : she was Mum Drunk. The kind of drunk your friend gets when she doesn’t go out much any more. The kind where a couple of glasses of wine, overeagerly downed and fuelled by freedom from familial obligations, leave her giddy and breathless in double-quick time. The next day at work, I wielded my friend’s new inability to handle alcohol like a weapon. ‘Ha, ha!’ I crowed. ‘You were Mum Drunk.’ She just smiled and ignored me. As it turned out, Mel wasn’t drunk at all: she was pregnant again. Still in her first trimester, she’d been ordering lime and sodas at the bar and quietly pouring away the alcohol we got her. She…

SPROUT TOPS Once left to rot in fields, today sprout tops are a must-eat vegetable. They’re the larger leaves that grow around Brussels sprouts (but sold separately) and can be found in vibrant greens or deep purples and pinks. Their flavour sits somewhere between kale, cabbage and sprouts – but they are less bitter than the sprouts themselves. They are also full of antioxidants (many of which are known to protect against cancer) and assist the body in detoxifying, which is always a bonus! SPROUT TOP SHAKSHUKA Feeds: 4 Preparation: 15 minutes Cooking: 15 minutes INGREDIENTS Generous glug of olive oil 1 clove of garlic, crushed and finely chopped 250g sprout tops 100g fresh spinach 1 tsp ground cumin 1½ tsp ground coriander 150ml crème fraîche 100g feta, crumbled 4-8…

Trying Emily Phillips (£14.99, HODDER & STOUGHTON) For Olivia and Felix, a baby is top of their wish list, but life has other ideas. The debut novel from Grazia’s features director is a touching, funny and honest account of what to expect when you’re not expecting. After moving to the suburbs to prepare for their future family, Olivia and Felix are faced with a serious bump in the road when the baby doesn’t materialise. Add in the demands of Olivia’s distracting new boss and the mounting pressure of friends’ families growing at a rate of knots and life suddenly gets, erm, trying.

LETTER OF THE WEEK CELEB CVS READY! Have celebrity and politics become completely intertwined? Will we see Kate Winslet running the country and Tom Hardy heading up the opposition? If America is anything to hang your hat on, it could soon be a reality (yes, of the TV kind). In response to Celia Walden’s article on Oprah (22 Jan), I can only see past the word billionaire as a prefix. God she’s amazing, but are we getting swept away in the glamour? We’ve Clooney making inroads, now Oprah, and currently Trump. Is it the White House they covet or the immortal words ‘You’ve been hired!’ Julie NO CHOICE ? ‘The struggling NHS shouldn’t be paying for your poor life choices’ (22 Jan) was ill-informed and reductive. A ‘health expert’ doesn’t…

Great talent, other-level eyebrow excellence. 2 UP FRANCES MCDORMAND We just saw Three Billboards , lost our tiny, lust-addled mind over FM’s performance. Give that woman all the awards. Give them to her now. 3. UP TANK GIRL Creator Jamie Hewlett has published his first major monograph, which heavily features TG in all her raucous magnificence. We wanted to be her, once. Still do, a bit. 4. UP THE ROCK Whom Davina McCall is courting on Twitter, and who finally responded to her online flirtation and messaged her back. Yes, The Rock! 5.

ARE YOU A shoes girl or a bag girl? Turns out you needn’t be either, as this season accessory aficionados are focusing their attention on traditionally unsexy territory: glasses. And not glamazon shades either but proper, blind-as-a-bat-without-them specs. And how appropriate. What could spell January solemnity better than brand new glasses (whether you need them or not)? New names to know for optical ranges are Rag & Bone and Zanzan, and then there’s Mr Leight, a joint venture between Oliver Peoples founder Larry Leight and his son Garrett. The California-inspired styles aren’t cheap (up to £800) but that’s a snip when you consider that the right pair is better than a facelift. Or why not get acquainted with an unfamiliar name, like Barton Perreira, whose chunky frames impart just the…

PHOTOS: BACKGRID, SPLASH NEWS FOLLOWING THE announcement of Gwyneth Paltrow’s engagement to Brad Falchuk, it seems that her ex-husband Chris Martin is equally keen to move on. According to insiders, his relationship with Dakota Johnson is already ‘getting serious’ three months in. The pair are said to have ‘practically moved in together’ after Dakota began spending increasing amounts of time at Chris’s Malibu home, with one well-placed source saying, ‘They haven’t been together long but things were intense from the get-go. Only a few weeks after they met, Chris was flying Dakota to South America to see his show because they didn’t want to be apart, and from almost the first date they were exclusive, which is rare for Chris. Friends are speculating that it isn’t a complete coincidence that…

PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES. FIND @MEGSMENOPAUSE ON TWITTER, FACEBOOK AND INSTAGRAM TWO YEARS AGO, I hit a wall. Almost overnight, I went from being a fun-loving, enthusiastic person to an anxiety-ridden shadow of my former self. The most frightening thing was that I couldn’t understand it, as my life was going along nicely. I developed social anxiety, put on weight and was in a state of constant panic. The added pressure of living in the celebrity world, where looks are important, took its toll and it got to the point where I didn’t want to leave the house. Like most women, I didn’t immediately link my symptoms to the menopause. At 50, I was the right age, but it was only after coming across an article about anxiety, which mentioned the…

THE WINNERS + LOSERS OF ORIGINALLY A TERM that arose in the fight for black equality, woke has become a catch-all badge of honour for anyone alive to issues of representation across broadly racial, sexual and gender issues. One of the latest to embrace the trend is Katy Perry, who returned to the fray last summer with post-election anxiety, ‘purposeful pop’ and giant skeletons of Donald Trump and Theresa May at the BRITs. All this has frightened the horses; last week, her record label boss said he had some ‘difficult conversations’ with the star after Witness sold just 60,000 in the UK (her previous album sold 500k). The take home? Some people just wanna see some cute dancing sharks. Meet the other winners and losers in the race to be…

RULE NUMBER one to making anything (and we mean anything ) look amazing ? Confidence. Rule number two? Great lingerie. Intimissimi, whose bras are made by women for women and fuse superlative fit with comfort and modern style, want to give women both. The Italian brand knows that finding the right fit doesn’t just make you look good, it makes you feel good. That’s why Intimissimi’s #InsideAndOut campaign eschews traditional semi-clad lingerie imagery and instead features inspirational women posing fully clothed, a celebration of who they are and what they’ve achieved. The campaign stars leaders in their fields, such as model Irina Shayk, actress Dakota Johnson and tennis ace Ana Ivanovic – women who remind us of what we can achieve when we’re at ease with ourselves. The bras they…

IRL UK Journalists Anna Lewis and (Grazia’s very own) Rhiannon Evans dissect the best real-life stories of the week – from the shocking to the downright bonkers (people who marry inanimate objects, anyone?). Best enjoyed with a cuppa when you want to guffaw at the world and all its madness, you’ll be hooked from the first episode. Is It Just Me? Can’t stomach the hard-hitting news? Perhaps former Glamour editor Jo Elvin and James Williams can help – they’re debating the trivial stuff each week with the help of a celebrity guest. Whether it’s fussy eaters or dramatic proposal stories, they’ll sort the wheat from the chaff in the most entertaining way possible.

ELLEN POMPEO IT’S A SHOW that has run over 300 episodes for 14 seasons, still draws in 8.13 million viewers and earned nearly $3 billion for its network’s parent company, the Disney Corporation. But until recently, its star, Ellen Pompeo, was reportedly not the highest-paid actor in the show. This is despite her character’s name, Meredith Grey, being the actual name of the programme, Grey’s Anatomy . But last week, in what is being described as a watershed moment for female empowerment in Hollywood, Ellen, 48, broke her silence on her 14-year struggle to be paid what she is worth. And in securing her new $20 million wage, making her the highest paid actress on a US TV drama – she gave women everywhere a masterclass in equal pay negotiation.…
