Gorgeous scans

 

[dreams]

That's exactly what I was thinking as well. Interesting article too. From what I remember they had to get another one made because it was so popular!

What issue/year was this article in? It sounds like a fun read.
(I've had to cut down on my European magazine buying to fund actual clothing purchases lately and I've been out of the loop)

Alexa Chung: The upturn in interest in baking proved to be the breaking point for me

I'm sure there's an art to doing nothing – I just haven't worked out where the gallery is.

I always thought it looked like fun to spend the day lazing around whenever I left my boyfriend snoozing in bed as I rushed out the door panicking about call times and tripping over my undone shoes. And if I happened to be privy to conversations about Doctors or 60 Minute Makeover, I felt truly hard done by, knowing I would never get to catch them.

Last week, I was granted the luxury of having very little to do. A couple of days' work here and there and that was it. Finally, I thought, I can breathe, get things done, feed the post box the pile of stampless letters littering my table, meet up with friends, actually relax. But as I pulled my third batch of cup cakes from the oven on my second day off, I realised I was actually going to be driven mad by boredom.

The upturn in interest in baking was the breaking point for me. As I frittered about collecting the essentials to make some mind-blowing icing, it occurred to me that this had been the sole focus of my entire day. Never before have I been so consumed by the right shade of baby pink. In an effort to escape the house before I morphed into Delia Smith (if Delia couldn't cook), I made an appointment to get my hair dyed. I wanted to get it highlighted as if the sun had made it lighter, which basically meant I had to ask for "frosted tips", a phrase that should never be uttered by anyone the least bit embarrassed by their own vanity.

My hair has been the source of much displeasure ever since I decided to go back on my promise never to grow it long again. The frosting of its tips was an attempt to make this middle length more bearable/interesting. I am frustrated by its refusal to grow beyond shoulder length: the worst of all lengths, the veritable plain Jane of the haircut family. When it was a sharp bob, I was forever having to get my fringe trimmed; I remember this and it mocks me.

Having had my hair washed in a basin next to Kirsty Gallacher (very pretty up close, even with a towel for a head-dress), I overheard a girl in the salon bemoaning her own thick locks. She was annoyed it took so long to dry. I growled to myself and flicked the three treasured strands on my head from my eyes.

On my way home I was called a "miserable ****" near my house. I didn't think I was being miserable, I was just on the phone to a friend, and not, apparently, paying enough attention to the toothless man who was lurching and shouting in my direction, bellowing that I was the girl on T4. I shouted back at him not to be rude and felt like an idiot for the rest of the day.

I suppose I've become accustomed to operating under fairly high levels of stress. I hate not having too much to do. I'm not a person who finds it easy to relax. I called my agent and asked when I would next be unfathomably busy. She told me to enjoy this time off and remember how stressed I was with too much on my plate, remember how I had been telling her I was "broken". "I long for 'broken'," I replied. "Really? Can I have that in writing?"

i agree having your hair shoulder length it´s the worst thing, it never looks great and there´s not really much you can do. And i want to see her new hair.... or have i already seen it and didn´t notice the highlights?

Looks like she's going to make a late appearance at Paris Fashion Week

The Gossip takes the stage tonight at the VIP Room in Paris for the latest incarnation of the Fendi O’ pop-up nightclub. Also in the lineup is British television presenter Alexa Chung, who is slated to DJ for guests expected to include Bernard Arnault, Karl Lagerfeld, Silvia Fendi, Kate Moss, Virginie Ledoyen, Jade Jagger and Milla Jovovich.

The NL collection looks so much better than I expected, but then again I hate that shop. I'm a little wary that the cut/colour of the items won't look half as good in real life though.

When does it come out? New Look is slow of the mark to get this info on their website (even in their 'coming soon' section), when they are already doing PR with mags like Grazia, who in turn refer to the website.

I like the denim dress.
