OUR MISSION AT GRAZIA is to represent women all year around, using our platform to fight for meaningful change on the issues that we know matter to you. From cyberflashing to childcare, your support of our recent campaigns has forced governments to take action. But, as we mark International Women’s Day, it’s clear there’s more to be done; so much more. Which is why this issue you’ll hear from Alex Scott, the England footballer turned pundit, about how she’s tackled being a woman in a male-dominated world. And, in an exclusive interview, we ask would-be Prime Minister Keir Starmer what kind of leader he’ll be if he does make it into Number 10. @hattie_brett / feedback@graziatmagazine.co.uk…

YOU LOT – WE NEED to talk. Oh, relax: I’m not breaking up with you. There’s just this thing I’ve noticed some of you doing. A not-cool thing, an unchecked tendency, a New Normal (which is, actually, Very Old, so: an Old-New Normal); a cultural expectation that is rapidly becoming entrenched. It’s the breezy assertion that Dudes Must Pay on dates. You can’t watch an episode of First Dates without a woman muttering ‘red flags’ because Dude Didn’t Pay or Dude Hesitated in Paying or Dude Said (outrage!): ‘Shall we split it?’ TikTok has a stream of How To videos ref: getting Dude To Pay (#highstandards #datingstandards); the most strident feminist I know tells me she insists ‘cishet white men pay’ for her on dates as recompense for the gender…

10 HOT STORIES HAVING TAKEN A break after the initial blaze of publicity for Spare, Harry and Meghan stepped out for the first time in public for date night at trendy Los Angeles hotspot San Vicente Bungalows, as Brand Sussex swung back into action: Harry in a live-streamed ‘intimate conversation’ with Canadian ‘toxic trauma’ specialist Dr Gabor Maté; Meghan promoting the Clevr coffee brand (which she invested in) on Instagram. (It’s rumoured she’s also opened a new ‘@Meghan’ account there, too.) It follows Meghan’s appointment last month of Hollywood venture capitalist Adam Lilling to oversee their next moves. Famed for making millions for celebrities, Lilling’s agency partners ‘the world’s top influencers - those who can affect more change in a day than most can in a lifetime - with the…

1. BIG, BAD BAGS The off-runway topic of discussion? What bag to buy now - meaning what holdall can stylishly haul our daily possessions, including a laptop, water bottle, umbrella et al? Tod’s, Salvatore Ferragamo and Jil Sander’s supersized sacks may be the answer come autumn. 2. THE SKINNY TROUSER RETURNS Super-streamlined cigarette pants (high-waisted, with raised seams) took the floor at Prada, Bottega Veneta and Salvatore Ferragamo, where lean silhouettes and body-conscious tailoring begged the question: is the oversized IG look over? 3. SQUEEZE! IT’S ALL ABOUT THE CROPPED JACKET The coat line-up was a tale of two halves-floor-sweeping maxicoats or cropped, cinchedin jackets. Moschino’s cropped tailored jackets (brocade to houndstooth) topped editors’ wish lists, while at Tod’s, nipped in shearling jackets were a hit. 4. A DRESS OVER TROUSER…

FORGET THE FROU-FROU! In a fashion week first, street stylers have taken a more practical approach to dressing, giving us a welcome flurry of outfits that could pass as, dare we say, ordinary? Here’s what you’ll really want to wear this season. DITCH BEIGE FOR TAN Transitional dressing means it’s the trench coat’s time to shine. Switch to tan leather or soft tonal suedes and wear neatly belted for a polished upgrade on classic beige. WEAR WITH REVISIT A CLASSIC Seen on the runways of Prada, Christopher Kane and Fendi, the humble sweater in wearable shades of heather grey, cream and navy has already been hailed as this season’s most understated must-have. Ridiculously simple, surprisingly effective. WEAR WITH DABBLE IN DENIM Move over minis! Longerlength denim skirts have taken over…

10 HOT STORIES AMY POWNEY, creative director of Mother of Pearl, grew up in a caravan with no electricity, running water or heating on a farm in Lancashire. It was an off-grid childhood that, at first glance, couldn’t be further away from the glamorous world of high fashion, but it shaped her entire value system as a designer. In new documentary Fashion Remiagined, directed by Becky Hutner, Amy reminds her dad of how they’d shower. ‘We’d have to go out with a bucket to pump the water, heat half of it up on the stove and then you’d run round the back of the caravan and pour it over the top of where the shower was in the bathroom.’ Clearly, her perspective on natural resources being precious was planted from…

I AM A fashion journalist. Of course I understand the power of clothes. It’s my job. Of course I have long known that what you wear can be a source of self-expression, self-augmentation, selfempowerment. Not to mention fun. Yet even I have been surprised over the last few years, as first my forties have ticked by, and now the first 14 months of my fifties. Because how I get dressed has gained a dimension it never had when I was younger. My wardrobe has become a way to take on shibboleths around age. In a world that has outmoded, not to mention harmful, preconceptions about what it means to be 50, never mind 70, I have found that to dress in such a way as to short circuit those preconceptions…

Do you feel it? An air of quiet resignation; a lack of mojo or determination and a sense that we’re not prepared to ‘lean in’ any more? Ever since the world chugged back to life after the pandemic it seems we’ve struggled to fire ourselves back up. According to Grazia’s exclusive What Women Want From Work survey of more than 1,000 UK women aged between 18 and 50, in collaboration with Pandora, two-thirds (69%) have felt less motivated at work since the Covid pandemic, with Gen Z-ers (those 18- to 29-year-olds who you might expect to be bright eyed and bushy tailed) feeling the least motivated (75%). What’s more, almost half of Gen Z women (45%) have quietly quit their current job. Across all age groups, four in 10 (41%)…

34% of women struggle to know what to wear to work DOES YOUR DAY start with decision fatigue before you’ve even left the house? You aren’t alone. According to our survey, 34% of women no longer know how to dress for work. For me it’s still a work in progress after three years navigating a pandemic and move to the countryside, but my goal is to achieve a look I’m calling ’polished comfort’. This means fewer structured pieces, while giving everything in my closet airtime. You don’t require a wardrobe overhaul; some of the simplest pieces you probably already own can transform your look with a few styling tricks. Take a slim-fitted black roll neck. For a casual work look, pair it with a crisp white button-down shirt over the top…

GRAZIA FEATURE Our new columnist Elizabeth Uviebinené - author of five books including The Reset and Slay In Your Lane, and founder of Storia, a guided journaling app to get to know yourself better - launches her new Grazia work column I HOSTED A vision board workshop in 2019; I’d never done one before. Yes, I’ve regularly written my goals down, but bringing them to life with pictures from magazines and quotes felt fun, aspirational… and then overwhelming. Essentially, I wanted it all. A family, a kick-ass career, amazing friends and a house in the country. You name it. Thanks to Covid, we have all been in the throes of the greatest collective shake-up of work and life in living memory. Our ambitions have been interrogated, relationships tested and we’ve…

GRAZIA FEATURE ECENTLY, I tweeted, ‘Yet another friend has been struck down by teenage pregnancy. We’re almost in our thirties but still…’ Then I closed the app, expecting nothing. A day later, my tweet had received more than 6,000 likes. By the end of that week, the number had risen to over 74,000. I’d never imagined that my offhand remark would be seen by anyone outside of my small following, let alone go viral and be liked by A-list celebrities or retweeted on to a timeline followed by Barack Obama. But my words took off in a big way. It turns out my comment resonated with tens of thousands of20-, 30- and 40-somethings. Hundreds were in my comments, chiming in to say, ‘Me too!’ Scrolling through the replies, I tried…

WHEN PHYLLIDA GRAY had her first baby, her siblings already had six children between them. She was sent bags and bags of good-quality baby clothes, 30% of which were new and unworn. ‘I realised that there was no need to shop new,’ she says. Inspired, Phyllida started selling her daughter’s and friends’ children’s clothes on Instagram as Les Petits Champignons, which quickly grew into a website allowing parents to buy and sell pre-loved (and often barely worn) baby and children’s clothes. Most of her sales still come from Instagram, including eagle-eyed parents who swoop in to buy specific items seconds after they drop on the site. Phyllida isn’t alone - the second-hand and rental market for kids’ clothes is booming as more and more parents realise how children’s habit of…

You can buy online, but grab a ruler Net-A-Porter, Selfridges, Matches Fashion, Browns and Dover Street Market all have great watch ranges if you really can’t bring yourself to walk into a boutique, but do yourself a favour and measure your wrist to check that the case size suits you. Matchy-matchy is totally fine If you only ever wear black right down to your socks, there’s a watch for you. Hublot’s Classic Fusion in Original Black Magic is about as matte and black as they get, while Zenith’s interchangeable straps come in shades from mint to white to sunflower yellow. Double-up Long straps - so long that they wind around the wrist several times make for a great casual look. From Hermes’ Cape Cod design to La Californienne’s gorgeous handpainted…

GIVE ME A FACE that makes me look like I’m green juicing and practising yoga daily and I’ll give up Botox in a heartbeat. I don’t have it often and mainly to stave off one stubborn frown line. Filler is another - and lately, increasingly controversial - matter. Once the lunch break procedure of choice, a generation of filler-happy TikTok users is now rushing to have it dissolved - on camera, of course. Filler isn’t bad per se, in the right hands it can recreate facial scaffolding where bone and fat have reabsorbed with age. But the waxy, pillowy look now sits in stark contrast to today’s health signalling - looking well. Last year, to diffuse my dark circles, I had a tiny droplet of hyaluronic acid (a temporary dermal…

Your tool kit: dust sheet, old clothes, masking tape, a variety of different-sized paint brushes, sandpaper. Start small - lamps, mirrors or bookcases are easy. Wash the piece down to ensure it’s totally clean (sugar soap works well) then protect with masking tape as required; for example, around the mirror if you are painting the frame. Check if it needs sanding normally you can tell by touch whether there is either wax/ other coats of paint that need to come off, or if you need to take off a gloss surface. Give yourself enough prep time - it’s boring but it makes a difference to the end result. Always do a base coat - use leftover paint if it’s lighter than your finished colour. Don’t slather on the paint too…

On The Savage Side by Tiffany McDaniel Twins Arc and Daffy, born in rural Ohio to drug-addicted parents, disappear into their imaginations to find beauty within the bleak. Inspired by the unsolved real-life murders of six women in Chillicothe, McDaniel explores sisterly love, female friendship and the instinct to survive in a world that considers you disposable. Deep Down by Imogen West-Knights THE DAZZLING DEBUT West-Knights’ arch observations were behind the cult Twitter account, Bougie London Literary Woman, that she co-created, and her debut novel has the same pithy energy. In the wake of her father’s death, Billie goes to Paris, where she attempts to reconnect with her brother Tom. Awkward attempts to comfort each other follow. Birnam Wood by Eleanor Catton Even the so-called do-gooders are morally dubious in…

Catch up on… You And Me Industry’s Harry Lawtey is Ben, grieving the wife he lost after the birth of their twins. In a moment of kismet he misses the bus at the exact same time as stranger Jess (Sophia Brown). A poignant romantic drama with One Day vibes. Tissues at the ready. ITVX now Watch live… The Gold Jack Lowden’s star is so far in the ascendant now let’s just call him the screen hero he is. As Kenneth Noye - vicious brains behind the real-life ‘80s Brink’s Mat robbery - he notches up another flawless performance on his generously chipped professional bedpost. Sundays, 9pm, BBC One and iPlayer Wallow in… Extrapolations Absolute favourite Sienna Miller heads up a very, very starry cast (Ed Norton, Meryl Streep, Kit Harrington,…

MODERN MUM DILEMMA OF THE WEEK I want a second child but my husband doesn’t. I don’t know how to get past this… Anna Whitehouse, aka @mother_pukka I think every serious relationship should have a checklist before the couple gallop off into the sunset. The basics like: willingness to move abroad; town or country living; and, of course, if you want kids - and how many. Procreation is a seismic decision for both sides and I truly understand the pain you are both facing with such polarising feelings. No one can be forced into something as big as this. It will only lead to resentment when you’re in the postnatal quagmire. It will always put you on the back foot in any darker financial moments. Both parties have to want…

Each issue, people we admire reveal their lasts, from books to box sets. Here, World Champion skateboarder Sky Brown, 14, shares hers… The last book I read… The Mamba Mentality by [the late] basketball legend Kobe Bryant. Whenever you drive around California you can see so many tributes to him. I loved reading about his approach to competing. The last song I listened to… Lovely by Billie Eilish. The last app I downloaded… My family and I all downloaded the Life360 location app for when we’re out. The last box set I watched… Wednesday on Netflix. The last person I followed on Instagram… Jenna Ortega [right] (@jennaortega) - she plays Wednesday Addams. The last photo I took… was at the beach parking lot, after surfing with my friends this morning. The last…

Have your say… Email us at feedback@graziamagazine.co.uk Find us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram @GraziaUK ROLE PLAY While feminism is about choice I was disturbed by Rise of the stay-athome girlfriend (6 Mar). But, when you think about it, they are just doing all the things most women end up doing in a relationship with a male partner on top of having a job and/or being a mother so perhaps it’s not as crazy as it seems, especially when many of them are monetising the experience and thereby creating financial independence. As long as it’s a choice based on mutual understanding and respect and not a form of coercive control then maybe we should reserve judgment. Emma Star letter WHAT A BEAUTY! I’m three months into my Grazia Beauty Club…

10 HOT STORIES HOLLYWOOD’S LATEST drama started, as it so often does, with a social media post. Selena Gomez shared a video of herself, stating she’d laminated her eyebrows a bit ‘too much’. It sounded innocuous enough, but it was soon to spark furious speculation. A hardcore community of social media sleuths, who have long followed a supposed feud between Selena and her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber’s wife Hailey, jumped on Hailey’s friend Kylie Jenner posting two cryptic photos to Instagram that they believed were aimed at Selena. First was a selfie captioned ‘This was an accident?????’ over her brows. Second was a screenshot of a FaceTime call with Hailey in which the pair zoom in on their eyebrows. TikTok user Nuha broke down the drama in a video that was…

SCENT OF A WOMAN Want to make a bold, beautiful statement of your feelings this Mother’s Day? Prada’s stunning Paradoxe is an olfactory celebration of the multifaceted modern woman. Offering a fresh take on femininity, the fragrance features a timeless white flower bouquet of neroli and jasmine, complemented by warm notes of amber and white musk accord. Plus, it’s housed in a refillable bottle that echoes the brand’s iconic triangle logo, making it a glamorous addition to any dressing table. Prada Paradoxe EDP, from £83 for 50ml…

PSYCHOLOGY WHEN I WAS made redundant from a job I thought I was pretty good at, my motivation levels plummeted. It wasn’t until I reflected on how much I’d changed since I chose that job in the first place that I started getting excited about the prospect of work again. It’s perfectly normal for our motivation to fluctuate, depending on what else we have going on. Plus the pandemic changed everything externally (hello, WFH) and mentally/emotionally. According to Grazia and Pandora’s What Women Want From Work survey, 69% of women have felt less motivated at work since the pandemic. If you recognise yourself here it might mean it’s time to revaluate your values, priorities and longterm desires. The world has changed, but we rarely stop to update our plans based…

ARE YOU RELIABLE, hard-working and competent? Would your colleagues describe you as ‘a safe pair of hands’? Do you think that talking about it would be showing off? Perhaps the thought of drawing attention to yourself makes you shudder. You are a classic Work Horse. But you need to be more of a Show Pony. We all know a Show Pony. They’re hard to miss as they flick their (metaphorical) shiny manes and ensure their contribution is seen, heard and rewarded. Cue gnashing of Work Horse teeth. No prizes for guessing which end of this equine spectrum I occupy. ‘Many people get stung by the myth “if you work hard, you’ll go far,”’ says Stefanie Sword Williams, founder and author of F* ck Being Humble. Surprisingly, given her CV (Forbes’…

GRAZIA EXCLUSIVE YOU MIGHT EXPECT Sir Keir Starmer to say he always wanted to be Prime Minister. He is, after all, named after the Labour Party’s founder, Keir Hardie, and now leads the party, which is in touching distance of government, according to polls. He looks the part: smart, serious, suited, knighted. But it wasn’t a lifelong goal. When did he decide he wanted the top job in politics? ‘Only very recently,’ he says, referring to 2019, when he made the decision to stand for leader. ‘Some people will say, “Oh, I knew as a child that I wanted to be an MP and PM” - not for me. I grew up working class: Dad worked in a factory, Mum was a nurse. I didn’t think that someone like me…

GRAZIA HEALTH + BEAUTY CATCH THE RED EYE Spring’s most unexpected make-up trend? The red smoky eye. ‘It’s surprisingly wearable - making blue and green eyes pop, while flattering brown eyes, too,’ says Anna Payne, the pro behind these looks. Wear solo or pair with an ombré lip for maximum impact. BOLD & BURGUNDY For a seasonal take on sharp liner, switch black or brown for burgundy (Anna used Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof in Eros, £24), or pair together - using the darker shade to frame the pop of colour within. ‘We’re seeing a shift away from traditional tones to those with more bite,’ says Anna. ALL-OUT OMBRÉ Bright doesn’t have to mean graphic. ‘This is a softer take on an ombré eye,’ says Anna, who layered lipstick under Chanel…

Do your research. Most practitioners are on social media so check out their feed, particularly before and afters. Run a background check. Err on the side of caution by using a GMC-registered doctor. A botched job will cost you emotionally and financially. Book a consultation. Establish the cost, risks, downtime and expectations. What’s new and trending might not be for you. Check out the waiting room for a snapshot of the kind of work your practitioner does. Don’t be drawn into having unnecessary additional procedures. Any attempt at upselling is a red flag.…

7 MARCH 2023 Yes, International Women’s Day is still a must With International Women’s Day on 8 March, cue familiar questions as to whether we still need it. Let’s see: median hourly pay for full-time workers was 8.3% less for women than men in April 2022, according to the Office for National Statistics. One in four women will experience domestic abuse in her life, according to charity Refuge. And only one in 100 rapes recorded by police in 2021 resulted in a charge that year, says Rape Crisis. So, while the gender pay-gap exists, women don’t feel safe on the streets or at home, and the justice system fails us, we’ll stick with our one day to flag how much work remains to be done.…

10 HOT STORIES BRAD PITT HAS a new girlfriend, nutritionist Ines De Ramon, 30, with whom he has been spotted on several outings in recent weeks - most notably at the César awards. It’s not the first romance for the actor, 59, since his split from Angelina Jolie in 2016. He’s been linked with Emily Ratajkowski and Alia Shawkat along the way, but this is certainly the most public he’s been with his dating life since Brangelina became two separate entities. As his new romance attracts attention, it perhaps also highlights just how little the dark details of his divorce have affected his public image. He has made much of the fact he has been ‘working on himself’ in ways only Hollywood types have time to do. ‘Out here in…

1. Think of yourself as the centre of a solar system. Who are all the planets that you want orbiting around you? You want someone who’s young, excitable and at the beginning of their journey because a lot of people don’t network across ages - and then you want someone who’s more experienced to bring into your circle. 2. Get used to being a host and organising gatherings. Create a quarterly dinner party, monthly bar drinks, a weekly chat group - whatever it is you need to bring together people in your industry with whom you might want to network. 3. Always be of service. I always think about what I can do to help people and how I can connect people. Because helping people realise their ambitions is one…

Change your internal narrative The smart one, the quiet one… We all hold ingrained beliefs and stories. ‘If you carry on believing these, you put yourself in that box and shut the lid,' says Alice. Step outside your comfort zone To progress yourself and your career, you need to get into what Alice calls your ‘stretch zone’. It’s uncomfortable -but it’s meant to be. Work smarter Show Ponies use their time wisely, scheduling regular networking sessions (remotely, via Linkedln, over coffee). Watch your language ‘Every time you write, “I just want to add,” or “Does that make sense?” you diminish yourself,’ Alice cautions. Set targets Stefanie advises attaching an end goal to your self-promotion. ‘This keeps you motivated and helps you identify the key things you should be saying.’ Alice…

Keir Starmer name-checked Orange Juice, but who else do politicians have in their AirPods? David Cameron said he thought pop trio London Grammar were ‘brilliant’. When Gordon Brown was Chancellor he said he liked the Arctic Monkeys, but when put on the spot he couldn’t name a track from their debut album and later said he’s more of a Coldplay man. Theresa May reportedly told pianist Davide Foroni that she’s a fan of The Beatles and Whitney Houston. And who can forget her robodance to Abba’s Dancing Queen?…

TODAY, WOMEN proudly wear their watches doing absolutely everything (from diving to race-car driving) and everywhere (from boardroom to dance floor). Women’s watches are as much a lifestyle tool as a decorative item, and as much a status signifier as any man’s watch. But there was a time when it was considered rude for a woman to be seen glancing at the time - presumably she should have been giving all her attention to her husband or thinking of things like needlework - which is why ladies’ watches looked like jewellery. It was in 1902 that Omega launched its very first ladies’ wristwatch, a delicate affair in a silver case with an all-over floral design, but it would take the world at large some getting used to. Consider that women…

DRY SKIN SOLUTIONS WHETHER you’re prone to dryness all year round or your complexion is reeling from winter wind and moisture-sapping central heating, most of us are in the market for a hydration boost. Here’s how to shop the best skin quenchers in the business on a budget. POWER PLAYER SHOP LIKE A PRO ‘Look for products rich in emollients (ingredients that trap moisture in your skin) and humectants (ingredients that draw moisture to your skin like a magnet). Emollients are mostly fatty molecules - think shea and coconut butters - and two of my favourite humectants are hyaluronic acid and glycerin. They’re present in lots of budget-friendly skincare.’…

IF THERE’S ONE interiors trend that encompasses the world as we know it right now, it’s upcycling (or repurposing, as it’s also called). In fact, it’s much more than a trend, which has an undercurrent of ‘here today, gone tomorrow’; better to call it a movement - one that is here to stay. Lucy Ward, brand director of the online vintage marketplace Vinterior, sums it up when she says, ‘Upcycling has become more relevant to our lives than ever before. Because of the cost of living crisis, people are turning to repurposing because they don’t want to splash out on something new. Then there’s the environmental case - we can’t go around buying stuff all the time, so if we take a piece that is perfectly good and make it…

IT’S TIME TO… DECORATE SHOPPING FOR AFFORDABLE cookware used to be fairly dull, with shelf upon shelf of functional stainless steel and cast-iron black. But no longer. Today, casserole pots shine in soft gold, frying pans catch the eye in sky blue and oven-to-table dishes can be anything from spotty to striped. And it doesn’t end there from chopping boards to trivets, kitchenware is now designed to be useful and good-looking. What’s caused this revolution? Arguably, it began with the Always Pan which, with its recognisable domed lid and colours won a multitude of fans, including Oprah Winfrey and Selena Gomez. In the UK, it became the first cookware to be stocked by Liberty. Then came the pandemic, which made us turn inwards to our homes and, in particular, the kitchen.…

THERE’S A GLOSSY strain of ’70s Los Angeles rock that lived and died on Sunset Boulevard, which will forever hold a fascination in cultural mythology. Daisy Jones (Riley Keough) is born at exactly the right time to fall into it all as a curious, beautiful, depressive 15-year-old who hates her mom. One trip to iconic club Whisky A Go Go, one cigarette bummed from a roadie with a tasty moustache, one too many useless boyfriends who leech off her creative energy and, voilà, she’s a volatile Stevie Nicks waiting to happen. With the benefit of hindsight, we know where those dreams went to die, lost up the burnt nostrils of hapless coke addicts, splayed on mortuary slabs after swallowing the live-fast-die-young hyperbole. But, wow, doesn’t it all look alluring in…
