Oops, he did it again. Chose a few healthy looking girls. Put them into too tight knitwear. Sent them down the catwalk. And made them look like sausages on the run.

Can you smell spring in the air? No? Maybe I am so tired of boots and cardigans, I am hallucinating tulips and hyacinths pushing their way out of the ground and popping up on my way to the supermarket. Anyway, spring IS around the corner (believing is knowing!), and it’s time to have a look [...]

I have been on a little break. In a land far, far away from my beloved MacBook, where snow covered mountains seam glistering lakes, where chocolates and cheese fondues warm hearts and souls after a day out in the cold, and where every breath of fresh air you take clears your head a little more.

Well done, Grazia, for a whole issue dedicated to ‘Size You – the only dress size that should matter. I liked Sadie Frost’s airbrush-free cover and particularly enjoyed reading about mothers and which body image related hang-ups they dread of passing on to their daughters.
If only someone had checked the imagery that has been used [...]

New year, new you? What about being more feminine this year; loving your body more and trying to get over your body dismorphic disorder?

Malnourished Monday #6 – the Christmas break

Just in case you have magically managed to miss it: It’s Christmas time! It is the season to be spent with family and friends; it’s the time for making presents and receiving gifts, and most importantly: the time to indulge in food that only comes once a year with said season of comfort and joy.

The headline of this Harrods promotion in Grazia reads ‘DRESSES TO DIE FOR’. And the weapon of choice in this case is starvation, I reckon.

Grazia Magazine is by far my favourite glossy pastime. I particularly like the mixture of celebrity gossip, fashion trends, beauty tips and issues that move hearts or at least make you think about problems that go on in less wealthy parts of our world.
