Kimmy K [does not] cover Paper magazine

Some of the most successful magazine covers have been controversial. One of the bestselling Vogue UK covers was when Alexandra Shulman decided to put a mirror on the cover of the millennium issue, making every one of her readers the cover star, and Lady Gaga's gun bra back in the height of her controversy reign was one of Rolling Stones highest circulating. So really, this wasn't that surprising at all. I mean, it's not like we haven't seen it before. If you cast your mind back to 2010…  It's not the first time camera-shy...

Writers un-block

It's been too long since I wrote for fun. And I know to some (perhaps most) people that will sound incredibly lame but I do, and have always, loved to write. Several times recently I've been asked how and when I decided I wanted to work in fashion, and to write. The truth is I honestly don't know.

My first month at Armani has flown by in a whirlwind of press days, season changeover and September issue send outs....

Girls Night

There's nothing I love more than playing dress up. When I first started going out in my teenage years, the pre night out ritual would begin around 7pm. Early dinner, because a food baby is not going to compliment the outfit I pulled out four days ago. Shower time, because it is impossible to style two day old hair. Then around 8pm the girls would pile round. This was nearly always lead by my girlfriend Lucy, my partner in crime when it came to religious partying. Cue copious amounts of wine, loud all-girl mega-mixes and the construction...

Turning Fables

It felt like forever since I had seen Jack, Gemma and Fi. We're usually joined at the hip when possible but since we've all had so much on recently it's been more and more difficult to find a slot to meet up. So a catch up was long overdue when I suggested we meet at one of Central London's newest offering, The Fable. And never ones to turn down the chance to critique a new haunt, or a good catch up over an even better cocktails, we agreed to give it a whirl. However this began with problems. The bar, on the corner of Farringdon road,...
