Blake and I... two peas in varyingly shaped pods

Yep, another mag distorting a girl's notion of 'normal'. Apparently Blake Lively is our new poster girl for "healthy living"... hmmm. I've also heard she makes the Gossip Girl stylists tear out the labels of all clothing bigger than a size 0. For her story and more check out June's Cosmopolitan magazine - or read my review at GWAS!

Frankie... she's my friend

The great thing about writing for someone elses blog is the opportunity it gives you to think outside your own little box. Reviewing for GWAS I get the chance to read mags that I love and mags that are new - Frankie was one such newbie... now she's a bestie! Read on...

SHOP... your path to health and wellbeing

ACP Magazines attempts to take the focus away from finances and back onto fitness with their 30 Days of Health & Wellbeing promotion. And SHOP editor, Justine Cullen stands up to the challenge: find just what you need to keep fit, lose weight or just look hot when you're sweaty in the June issue, out now.

Or you can read my little review at Girl With A Satchel...

My take on Nicole Richie...

With my boxes of clothes still en route from London (12 weeks and counting!), I'm a girl anxious for some retail relief. Fortunately I can live vicariously through the likes of Nicole Richie and the girls in 'How much is your wardrobe worth?' in May's issue of Shop Til You Drop .

As always, check out Girl With a Satchel to find out more!

It's GWAS time again... VOGUE, VOGUE, VOGUE!

For some people the fact that magazines arrive on newsstands a full month before their cover date is a cause for anxiety. After all, life speeds us by fast enough without our glossy's shoving past us too - but I kinda like it.

Reading What's Hot for January when it's only December allows me a few extra weeks to get on top of my wardrobe, and their lists of Things to do give me a heads up so as not to miss out on all that Arts & Entertainment has to offer.

So lets get inspired for 2009, Vogue-style, and check out GWAS!
