Us Vogue Jan: With J.Lo on the cover, it’s a thin issue full of thin people ( apart from J.Lo’s bottom) Read about J.Lo and her marriage “ I’m a girl, my natural inclination is to tell you the story” But she doesn’t. Damn. Drool over the Steven Meisel shoot on the new spring collections, looking very minimalist and do I see I see any horrid pink? A great big NO! Don’t read the piece on George Dubya and Laura because it will make your blood boil so go straight to the magic moments of fashion 2004 ( Sienna! Jude! Nicole!) Then read and weep about the tragedy of Darfur and be impressed that US Vogue doesn’t underestimate their readers.
US Harpers Bazaar Jan: Thin is definitely back for Jan issues and but at least curvy Scarlett Johanssen is on the cover. Read and laugh as she says “ people think I look sexy because I feel sexy, I am a very liberated person that way” (So liberated, you go girlfriend) Read about the trends for next summer : full skirts,baggy pants, jackets, white tanks and flat shoes. Peter Lindbergh does another story in the dessert ( he just copies himself) and I think I want to make Angela Missoni’s risotto with Zuchini flowers.
W Jan: I love this issue! It’s a must buy just to see the fashion shoot using elephants. No, I’m not talking about models who actually eat , I’m talking real, big, fat elephants wearing real Chanel, Helmut Lang, Balenciaga, marc Jacobs and Louis Vuitton! Shot by Bruce Weber, it’s a cute idea and will make you laugh. Bless. Then read about Julia Roberts (on the cover post pregnancy) interviewed from the hospital ‘ I am completely happy with my life , I love everything about it” Hormones talking? Maybe it’s just true. (No use lying around feeling depressed).
Travel & Leisure Jan: This issue is all about the world’s best: hotels resorts, lodges, Inns and safari camps and ttere are list and lists. There is a fab story on driving around the South of France and buying ceramics in Provence and the Camargue and an interesting piece on a new resort on the Caribbean Island of Canouan. Thin but chic. (The New Year’s resolution except for elephants)
