Wall know that the digital age has ushered in a new era. This was brought home to me in actually quite a sweet way at Christmas, when we sat down to watch the Gogglebox kids’ special with my daughter and realised she’d invited a friend to watch with us. Another ten-year-old girl, from Bradford. Obviously she hadn’t caught the train down and abandoned her family on Christmas Day. No, there was her cute little face peering out of an iPad screen. She and my daughter chatted and laughed through the show (for added excitement, one of said pal’s friends was actually featured on it!). It was the most post-modern version of the old-fashioned pen-pal tradition I’ve ever seen. My parents, who were there, were a little disconcerted. I know there…

@JIMCHAPMAN (2m FOLLOWERS) 6.45AM First thing, I let our dog, Martha, outside for a wee, and give her breakfast. Then I feed myself: I’m in a rush for the gym, so I whizz a banana, oats, almond milk and protein powder in the NutriBullet. 9.10AM It was a tough session and I’m feeling quite ill now. I stare into space while I recover, then eat my post-workout snack (four Snack a Jacks and a protein shake). 9.35AM In my office, it’s time to start filming for the day. I have a new system, where I have eight different video concepts – today it’s fashion and art. I upload a video six days a week and with Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat I’m talking to my followers all day, too. Left to…

MARIA FELIX Actress “She was the Elizabeth Taylor of the golden era of Mexican cinema, and she was very proud of her heritage. Start with her film Enamorada.” HOLLY ROBINSON PEETE Actress and philanthropist “My philanthropic spirit comes from my experience with my sister and her special needs; Holly’s comes from her son. What she’s done for the autism community is so honourable.” MAYA ANGELOU Poet “To quote her, ‘People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.’ So I try to make people I interact with feel amazing.” DOLORES HUERTA Civil rights activist “Dolores is a mentor of mine. She introduced me to farm workers’ rights and taught me that in a world where there’s so much attention on what…

#WOMENWRITING Welcome three new feminist writers to your bookshelf this month. First up, Shrill: Notes From A Loud Woman, the autobiography-cum-polemic from Lindy West, the livewire US writer fangirled over by Caitlin Moran and Lena Dunham. Here she tackles fat-shaming and internet trolls. Look out for UK tour dates soon. Comedian Sara Pascoe gets intimate in Animal: The Autobiography Of A Female Body; each chapter ponders a different body part – from boobs to pubes – looking at its history and cultural significance. Surgery, hormones, and masturbation are all covered along the way. Finally, for something completely different, US novelist Sarai Walker’s debut, Dietland, is a provocative revenge fantasy about a female guerilla group which uses terrorism to highlight gender inequality. Like the other two titles, it’s as funny as…

Dream destination “Anywhere that I can scuba dive – I’m massively into diving. The Caribbean or Thailand would be ideal – somewhere I can see a manta ray or turtle.” Feel-good film “Whenever I’m blue, I watch The Philadelphia Story – I love that performance by Katharine Hepburn.” Weekend treat “A Champagne brunch at The Wolseley in London always makes me very happy.” Signature scent “The French actress Laura Presgurvic is a friend of mine. Her family have a perfume house in Paris and I’m wearing their new scent, Rose Desgranges.” Beauty basics “I have to have my eyebrows on, so I always have Mac’s Lingering brow pencil with me. I discovered La Prairie foundation on a set at the start of my career. It has SPF in it, so…

With sex on tap just a right swipe away, it’s easy to feel like we’re in the midst of a dating apocalypse (cheers for that, Tinder). But all is not lost: research shows that 27% of one-night stands actually lead to successful relationships. And while, yes, alcohol often plays a part, these GLAMOUR readers found that a casual hook-up can turn into much, much more… While travelling, I stayed in a hostel in Australia. One night, I met Sam, who was staying there too. We drank, flirted and ended up in a bunk bed in an empty dorm. I snuck back to my room, but the next day he came to ask if I wanted to hang out. We ended up travelling together, and seven and a half years on,…

When Obama cried in his gun-control speech, I was delighted. At last, tears had a presidential endorsement. I cried in my wedding speech, when Beyoncé dropped Formation and even when a stranger complimented my bag. I’ve never held back, and now experts say crying is the ultimate self-care. “If we suppress tears, anxiety builds up and spirals out of control,” says Paul Farmer, chief executive of mental health charity Mind. Here’s why crying helps… IT MAKES YOUR BODY LISTEN TO YOUR MIND When my friend Carly’s dad got cancer, she never cried when visiting him in hospital. “But sometimes the silliest things would make me break down – a teddy bear left in the park, my housemates finishing the milk,” she says. Psychotherapist Alan McPherson explains that Carly was under…

education 2002-2006 King’s School, Tynemouth, Newcastle I was a goodie-two-shoes at school, but I had a guilty secret: I was an internet geek, learning to write code and blogging about interiors, beauty and fashion in my spare time. 2006-2009 BA (Hons) History, The University of Leeds I planned to study law, but at the last minute changed to history. I quickly realised I’d made a mistake. I stuck it out, but I should have changed courses to something I was more passionate about. employment 2009-2009 Marketing assistant, Cottages in Northumberland This was a lovely first job. I drove around the countryside with the radio blaring, photographing houses and writing descriptions for their website. 2009-2010 Account executive, Lateral Advertising, Sunderland After a short work-experience stint at this cool advertising agency, they…

Zohre Esmaeli, 30, risked everything to escape Afghanistan and seek refuge in Germany. But even she couldn’t imagine how much her life was about to change. AS TOLD to KATREEN HARDT We lived in fear and oppression, especially women. GIRLS WERE FORBIDDEN TO play sports, go to school or work Carpets hung from the windows, plunging the cramped room into darkness, while the stench of urine and body odour permeated the air. We had been held in a mosque on the outskirts of Moscow with no shower and one clogged toilet for two weeks. Babies cried as refugees huddled together exchanging horror stories of the journey from Afghanistan. I was in a constant state of anxiety, sleeping in my three pairs of trousers because our smugglers had threatened to leave…

“Over the past few years I’ve experienced horrible bouts of anxiety, usually when I travel. I hate being away from home and the familiarity of my surroundings. Perhaps it’s a control thing, I’m not sure, but it brings on a fear of feeling trapped. When that moment hits, my whole body tenses up and my mind spirals, thinking the worst – that I’m not safe and can’t get home. I start crying, my breathing is all over the place and, in extreme cases, I throw up. It’s an exhausting process, but because it didn’t happen all the time, I thought I could ‘live’ with it. But everything came to a head last November, after my marriage ended. Life suddenly felt so different – and hard. I had a terrifying panic…

There’s a reason Pamela Anderson didn’t wear a bikini in Baywatch. When you’re going about your business, saving lives and pelting it down that beach for the opening credits, you simply don’t have the time to worry about an errant boob popping out of its place. Yes, when it comes to practicality, we all know it’s Swimsuit: 1, Bikini: 0. And practical as it is, a one-piece is no less glamorous for it, either. For decades, it’s been a style that’s held its own – along with everything else you need it to. We love that timeless, vintageinspired ’50s bombshell look made famous by screen goddesses like Elizabeth Taylor and Marilyn Monroe. Today, Taylor Swift loves the subtly sexy look, complete with a lashing of old-school glamorous red lipstick. Or…

y@IRINASHAYK (5.4m FOLLOWERS) I’m terrible at doing make-up myself, so I prefer to follow the rule: less is more. I do love red lips for the evening, but I wear no eye make-up when I do a strong lip. I always look at my outfit first and then the make-up – everything has to work together.” STEP 1 SKIN “The most important thing before any make-up is the skin. You have to keep skin moisturised so you have a natural sheen. I use a gel-cream texture – it’s not too oily and gives a bit of glow; it’s perfect under foundation.” STEP 2 CONCEALER “I don’t wear foundation, because I like to have fresh skin. I’ll use concealer under my eyes, on my chin and to cover any redness.” Surreal Skin Concealer…

@JENATKINHAIR (1.3m FOLLOWERS) “Celebrities like Chrissy Teigen, Khloé Kardashian and Kylie Jenner are great chameleons. I sometimes get comments on my Instagram with people saying, ‘I bet she’s wearing extensions,’ and I’m like, ‘Yes, and you can too.’ Flip your hair in the face of the haters.” How to get it right every time 1 “I see extensions as a styling tool – sure, you can get long-term options, but also look at clip-ins and enhancers. They aren’t so overwhelming, as you can take them in and out daily.” 2 “Extensions aren’t just for length, but for body, too. Khloé has been an amazing example of playing around with looks recently.” 3 “Take the hair to your stylist and have them shape it. Don’t just take it out of the…

The ultimate @khloekardashian lip by @JOYCEBONELLI (1.5 m FOLLOWERS) KHLOE’S POUT “I always line the outside of her lips to make them look bigger, and I keep the colour concentrated in the centre to make lips bigger and rounder.” MY ESSENTIALS “I love the Kylie lipsticks – the Lip Kit in Candy K is my favourite. And I always carry gloss because the girls love it. I love YSL.” Gloss Volupté in 201 £22 YSL Beauté; Dior Addict Ultra-Gloss in Tiara £23 Dior (3). LIP TRAVEL TIPS “We travel a LOT. To stop lips looking cracked and dry, I use Lip Conditioner [£5.50 Caudalie] and Cocoa Brown’s Golden Goddess Oil [£9.99 Superdrug] as a gloss, as it gives more of a shine.” MY TOP LIP LOOKS “I love Tom Ford…

@FEARNECOTTON ( 1.4m FOLLOWERS) The term ‘squad goals’ – I can’t quite bring myself to use it. For a start, I’m over 16, which I believe is the expiry age for any new social-media-driven lingo or hashtag. It also makes my toes curl, as it implies that having a group of leggy, designer-clad, angel-faced mates is the epitome of friendship. I also dislike the word ‘squad’. Last time I checked, my friends were not a football team. However, there is one thing I do love about squad goals, and that’s the fact that it draws attention to how important friendship is. My friends are my home, my comfort, my rationale. We are all social creatures and thrive when in fluid communication with people we love and connect with. Connection is…

I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder about two weeks ago. It felt like there was nothing to get out of bed for and I was terrified of what my friends might say. But since reading Bipolar Disorder & Me by Kate Leaver, I have told three of my best friends and they have been more supportive than I could ever have imagined. This won’t define me, but it will make me stronger. Emily, by email This month’s star letter wins a JBL Flip 3 portable speaker, worth £99.99.

LASHES To create a natural but still fluttery look, use individual lashes, like Flare Eyelashes Black [£14 Shu Uemura]. Look down while you apply them, but don’t shut your eyes. “When the eyes are closed, the skin is slightly taut, so if you place the individuals on then, they won’t look the same when you look up.” EYES Layer several shadows for this textured look. “Blending is key. I used shades of brown, brick and burgundy. There is no black, so the eyes look dark, but they’re still soft.” Eye Shadow x 9: Burgundy Times Nine £30 Mac Cosmetics BROWS With brows, it’s about enhancing what you have. “I try to keep them from looking overdrawn and I brush them up if I’m doing strong eyes like this.” Try Arch…

Prepare for monsoon-scale weeping with the adaptation of Jojo Moyes’ best-selling romantic novel Me Before You, starring Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin. John le Carré’s spy thriller Our Kind Of Traitor also gets the big screen treatment, with Ewan McGregor and Naomie Harris as a nice couple drawn into a criminal underworld. Kate Beckinsale and Chloë Sevigny bonnet up in period drama Love & Friendship, inspired by Jane Austen’s lesser-known novel Lady Susan. Meanwhile, Tom Hiddleston shows off his singing skills in biopic I Saw The Light, playing 1940s singer Hank Williams. Director Richard Linklater takes us to the 1980s in Everybody Wants Some!!, a college comedy-drama; and finally, we have two big sequels: Alice Through The Looking Glass and X-Men: Apocalypse. *Overdoses on popcorn*…

Once again, the Chanel S/S16 show at Paris Fashion Week was a triumph, turning the famous Grand Palais into a Chanel airport terminal. It was a collection of tracksuits, practical flats and in-flight comfort sweaters (perfect for that endless walk to baggage claim), accompanied by an array of Chanel luggage. Embellished with the label’s trademark ‘C’, the luggage had a muted palette, some with bold straps; elegant, yet easy to spot on any baggage carousel. Can’t upgrade to Chanel? Our edit of the chicest high-street pieces will make packing a joy.…

be sun savvy • Along with wearing Ladival sun protection, which protects against both Infrared-A and UV rays, invest in a wide-brimmed hat and UV protecting sunglasses. • Stay in the shade during the heat of the day (11am-3pm) and reapply sunscreen regularly, especially after swimming. • When it’s hot, stay hydrated (and that’s water, not Mojitos). “By choosing a sunscreen that also includes Infrared-A protection, people can protect against four times more of the sun’s rays.” Justine Hextall, Consultant Dermatologist 80% of us are unaware of the serious damage Infrared-A rays can do to our skin* * One Poll survey of 2000 UK adults, November 2014 Infrared-A rays make up 30% of the sun's rays New bikini, check.

My husband, Ian, and I married in Vegas. I was 24, he was 21. Nobody thought it would last. Not even the Reverend Rudy at the Graceland Wedding Chapel, who wrote: ‘Have a nice day :-)’ on the back of our wedding certificate. He probably thought it would be over by dinnertime. Yet now, we have a son and we’ll soon be celebrating our 20th anniversary. What’s our secret? God knows. But I have picked up a few tips along the way… DO SOME PROPER COURTING Ian and I met pre-internet, so we wrote each other letters, and he made me mixtapes. Basically, we were so indie and ’90s it makes me sick, but we’ve got a good story for the uninterested grandchildren. Messaging ‘U HORNY?’ on Tinder, however? Not…

@LUC YWILLIAMS02 (132k FOLLOWERS) For many of us, the tracksuit has become something of a guilty secret. While we’d happily roll around shopping centres in baggy jogging bottoms in our formative years, once we became fully fledged grown-ups, anything with an elasticated waistband and a hood was relegated to days revolving around Netflix and Deliveroo. Now, however, a decade since bejazzled velour had its short and not-so-sweet heyday and the hoodie was banned by Bluewater shopping centre in Kent, the tracksuit is on the runway and back on our radar. The anti-pretty Parisian label Vetements is leading the charge. Its hooded tracksuit from the S/S16 collection proved an unexpected sell-out – spied on everyone from Kanye West and Selena Gomez to street-style favourites Pernille Teisbaek and Hedvig Opshaug. “Vetements has…

We hate to sound all The Devil Wears Prada, but sunglasses should be taken seriously. You wear them on your face; they are unarguably the most prominent accessory or wardrobe staple you will ever own. Whether you’re a sunglasses fanatic or just want to find a pair that will last you forever, every pair of shades you invest in must absolutely make you feel fabulous and like a Hollywood star. Other than shielding your eyes from the sun, this is their primary function – don’t accept anything less. Find your sunglasses icon – Jackie O is key here, or you could go for Marilyn Monroe-inspired cat eyes, which exude retro glamour; or embrace your inner hippie and choose circular styles (very ’60s Diana Ross). Sometimes it pays to stick to…

Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve had my skincare Sundays. It’s a ritual I still follow to this day. Every Sunday, I share my product routine and suggestions on Instagram and Snapchat as #SundayFacial, and I’m overwhelmed by the responses – I know how confusing it can be to figure out what you should use. The truth is, there are universal ingredients that do work for every skin type, and while you might need to add in additional targeted products, this is a good place to start. CLEANSE Every skin type should only ever use a gentle cleanser. The watersoluble The Method Cleanse £48 Lancer (1) is my go-to, as it’s mild and softening, plus it removes light make-up, too. PEEL I’m a big fan of gentle peels (gentler…

THE NEW BRONZE “Never mind a real tan, just warm your complexion with two bronzers. Use a deeper shade to contour beneath the cheekbones, and a medium hue for almost all-over application. Peach blush on cheeks makes it pop, and I love to add soft brown eyeshadow, and lots of mascara.” LASHES: THE BIGGER, THE BETTER “Think major, amplified lashes that are the focal point of your make-up. Try layering three or four different mascaras (wait for each to dry before adding more).” RED LIPS WITH A TWIST “Pairing smudgy eyes with your red lips makes for more of a festival feel than the usual old-Hollywood glamour. Apply your lipstick with a soft, blurred outline, and go for a taupe or grey cream eyeshadow to add depth and intensity to…

The Kills Ash & Ice Their fifth studio album (and what some might call Jamie Hince’s ‘break-up record’) packs more of a punch than the previous, with Heart Of A Dog and Bitter Fruit providing the most fighting spirit. Echo Home, however, is a sharp change of tempo and could have easily been lifted off The xx’s album Coexist – just lovely. Ladyhawke Wild Things Fast-paced and refreshing, this synth-y, indie-pop album will have you pepped up in an instant (think of a more lively CHVRCHES). The New Zealand singer-songwriter is reliably excellent live, and we can already imagine a sun-kissed festival crowd swaying and singing along to the title track. Corinne Bailey Rae The Heart Speaks In Whispers The two-time Grammy winner returns with an emotional, soulsoaked record. The…

With its instantly recognisable zig-zag prints and weaves, Missoni is one of the bastions of Italian style. And with art having always been a key inspiration for the brand since its inception in 1953, it seems fitting that a new exhibition at the Fashion and Textile Museum, London, celebrates the design house in the context of 20th-century fine art. Missoni, Art, Colour will showcase over 60 years of fashion, alongside masterpieces from European artists and paintings by its late, great founder, Ottavio Missoni.

You’ve got a spiralizer, your Instagram is full of healthy foodie bloggers, but you’re still not inspired when it comes to cooking veg? Join the club (stir-fry, again?). “Vegetables should be the sexiest thing on our plates,” says Natasha Corrett, author and founder of Honestly Healthy. “Nutritionally dense, they also fill you up and give you energy.” Here, we asked the pros for easy ways to put them in the spotlight. ADD SOME SPICE Indian cooking is great for transforming veg. “Each vegetable has a ‘favourite’ spice,” says Meera Sodha, author of Made In India. “Leeks and carrots go well with earthy cumin, as do potatoes with black pepper and turmeric. Add ginger to greens and garam masala to aubergines.” Try Sodha’s fool-proof dish: kale fried with cumin, chilli and…

Cameron has staked his political credibility and perhaps even his career on staying in Europe With fewer than 50 days until the European Union referendum on June 23, now is the time to make up our minds on whether to remain in the Euro-club or go it alone and leave. As David Cameron has repeatedly told us, the way we cast our vote will probably be the most important political decision of our lives. Could we make it as an independent nation looking to the world at large, rather than our European neighbours, to make a living? Or should we work to improve the EU from within and cooperate with our fellow Europeans to build a safer, better, more prosperous bloc of nations together? Six years into his premiership, Cameron…

@ALESSANDRAAMBROSIO (6m FOLLOWERS) 1 KNOW YOUR LIGHT “Look for the best light and you won’t need a filter. Natural light is great, but on a grey day, it can cast shadows. I like a beauty light – that light you get around the mirrors in a studio (or in stores).” 2 PLAY WITH YOUR ANGLES “Everyone’s face is different, so practise and take a picture from the left, right and straight on to find your best angle. Avoid taking them from below – lift your arm up slightly above your head.” 3 UP THE SHINE “Shiny hair that reflects the light is key. I just got a DIA Richesse Hi-Visibility in Terracotta Brown salon treatment (3) [from £45 L’Oréal Professionnel], a colour enhancer that fades naturally.” (Alessandra is the spokesmodel…

Thousands of you descended on London’s Saatchi Gallery for the first-ever GLAMOUR Beauty Festival, in March, in association with Fiat. And what an amazing weekend we all had talking blow-dries, braids and beauty icons. A-list hair and make-up gurus Sam McKnight and Mary Greenwell shared their industry secrets; GLAMOUR cover star Rita Ora created a cover shoot live on stage with one of our favourite photographers, Damon Baker; healthy-eating guru Natasha Corrett demo-ed a recipe that will make you glow; and Jo Malone gave us the inside track on how to launch our own beauty empire.

BEAUTY DIRECTOR ALESSANDRA STEINHERR ORANGE MEETS PINK The key to balancing out two such strong shades is in the skin, which needs a natural finish (Kate is wearing Fresh Glow BB Cream £30 Burberry) and, if you have fair skin, a hint of bronzer.

His wacky and loud (and if you’re lucky, shirtless) recipe tutorials earned him a million followers, with his book, Lean In 15, the UK’s fastest-selling debut cookbook. His 90-day Shift, Shape & Sustain body plan uses HIIT, healthy eating and monthly selfies (not scales) to get results. 6.30am “Wake up.
