REACTION IN THE Grazia office to the Oscar nominations was mixed. On the one hand, major excitement at the nod given to Brit Florence Pugh; a woman so talented she made me rethink my long-held prejudice against Amy March. We look at how the accolade marks a big year for Florence in Hollywood on page 22. On the other hand, the director category made for depressing reading. Only five women have been nominated for Best Director in the Oscars’ 92-year history; a statistic that Helen O’Hara argues on page 34 needs tackling. What if all women boycotted the Oscars? Without them the ceremony would be a far less interesting place……

We don’t want James Bond’s hand-me-downs “Anyone hoping for a sassy, sophisticated lady to order a shaken-not-stirred martini and utter the words, ‘The name’s Bond, Jane Bond’ is going to be disappointed. While some have called for a woman to be next in line to play the MI6 agent, last week producers of the franchise ruled it out, with Barbara Broccoli saying, ‘James Bond can be of any colour, but he is male.’ We usually love to see women at the top in traditionally male-dominated industries, but agree on this one. Feminism isn’t about women playing men’s parts in films; Hollywood’s gender-swaps won’t solve sexism. We deserve our own thrilling stories – and our own heroes.”…

PHOTOS: BACKGRID, SHUTTERSTOCK, GOFFPHOTOS.COM WE HAVE ALWAYS paid attention to Sienna Miller’s accessories. After all, the actor is a bona fide British fashion icon, and whatever she wears, we want. But the world was particularly obsessed with one last week; a diamond-encrusted piece that’s prompted furious speculation about the possibility of what must surely be the most stylish wedding in A-list history. Last week, Sienna was seen walking through New York, where she is currently based, a sparkling ring clearly on her finger. She was then spotted out again, hands firmly in her pockets. Attempting to quell the rumours, perhaps. But days later, the ring was back once again as she headed out with her boyfriend, Lucas Zwirner. It is not surprising that she has tried to maintain a veil…

WORDS AND SHOPPING: NATALIE HAMMOND. PHOTOS: GETTY IMAGES HANDS UP IF you spent your university days dancing around sticky nightclubs with a clutch bag wedged under your armpit? Us too, despite the fact that it got lost twice a term and meant you could only dance the robot. All of which is why news that fashion editors and street-stylers are packing away their buckets, cross-bodies and shoulder bags for the clutch, comes as something of a shock. As with most accessories trends right now, the credit’s due to Daniel Lee, creative director at Bottega Veneta and the king of cult accessories. According to global search platform Lyst, the brand’s Pouch is being searched for 240 times a day. ‘Thanks to Daniel’s minimalist yet instantly recognisable take on this classic bag…

As surprise hit Sex Education returns, star Emma Mackey tells Harriet Kean about playing a kickass character, shooting sex scenes post-MeToo and her new-found fame... SEX EDUCATION, the show about a group of teens anxiously navigating their first sexual experiences, is back. It’s a cross between Mean Girls (the American high-school drama), Skins (bar the drugs) and Fleabag (minus the hot priest). The show’s power is that it explores almost every taboo, with storylines about virginity, masturbation, Viagra and pansexuality, to name a few. The first series was an overnight success, resonating with a culture that has learned about sex through sterile biology lessons and panicked Google searches. ‘For young women, it has been eye-opening and empowering,’ Emma Mackey, star of the Netflix show, explains. ‘People who have watched it…

‘It’s retro but I’m really happy’ Alexa*, 30, is a nurse and lives in Cornwall ON A COLLEAGUE’S hen night recently, the conversation turned to sexual partners or, to be more specific, how many. Lips loosened after the cocktail-making class, one of the bridesmaids kicked off the confessional and one by one the group of women revealed their ‘number’, ranging from six to ‘around 50’. I cringed when it was my turn, knowing from experience that what I was about to say would almost certainly elicit a reaction. But, not wanting to be a party pooper by refusing to play, I said jovially, ‘Just the one for me. My husband.’ There was a very brief silence before the usual reactions. ‘Oh… that’s so romantic… how sweet… you two must be…

Do you have an ‘all or nothing’ approach to health and wellbeing? IF I HAD A POUND for the amount of times people have said to me ‘Look I’m just an all-or-nothing person,’ I’d have saved up for a pair of Chloé boots by now. You may see this in yourself – you go hell-for-leather in the gym in January or before a holiday, or abstain from wheat, sugar, dairy and gluten for two months, and then fall spectacularly off the wagon. You then repeat it a few months down the line. Sound familiar? There’s a name for this: the dichotomous mindset. And here are tips for breaking this unhelpful thinking once and for all… 1. Don’t label yourself Labelling yourself as an ‘all or nothing’ person is as helpful…

Skin prep… For Katie, the first step is exfoliation. ‘You want to make your skin look polished and shiny. Use an exfoliating toner like REN Ready Steady Glow Daily AHA Lotion Tonic [3], £25, then, after moisturising, use products that retain a glossy finish. Try Weleda Skin Food [2], £12.95, or a few drops of Glossier Futuredew [1], £23.’ Shine on… ‘Steer clear of powders when it comes to recreating the glass skin look,’ says Katie. ‘Go for wet-look highlighters and balms like the Beautyblender Glass Glow Shinelighter [4], £22, Chanel Baume Essentiel Multi-Use Glow Stick in Transparent [6], £33, or RMS Beauty Lip & Skin Balm [5], £24. Highlight cheekbones, the top of your forehead at the hairline, the furrow of your brow, the tip of your nose, the…

First, I make sure I’m really hydrated with a good moisturiser. I use BIBA Daily Moisturizer [4], £28.98, then Image Skincare Prevention+ Daily Hydrating Moisturizer SPF 30 [1], £53, if I’m going to be out in the sun. Rather than a full face of foundation, I use a good concealer – Hourglass Vanish Airbrush Concealer [3], £32, applied with Hourglass No.5 Concealer Brush [2], £33, on smaller areas that need a bit more coverage. I use a touch of Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder Palette [5], £56, before adding bronzer, usually the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Bronzer [6], £45, or Chanel Tan de Soleil [8], £40. I always do my eyebrows, even if I wear no other make-up. I use the Anastasia Beverly Hills Clear Brow Gel [9], £23. I like to…

PHOTO: MARCO VITTUR I SPENT A WINTER in Los Angeles once, marching up and down canyons in my leggings, marvelling at sunsets, pooling Ubers, watching the Pacific froth to and fro, enjoying the repercussions of cheesy crackers with weed in them, drinking drip coffee and sharing late-night slices of cherry pie. And another way of looking at it: I spent three months wafting from one salsa to another. It was salsa that punctuated these perfect days. At the weekend, we’d skulk about the farmers’ market slurping our juices like Paris and Nicole in The Simple Life (except not), picking up pickled daikon at Dave’s Gourmet Korean Food, a tote bag’s worth of navel oranges, plus tomatoes and great bushes of coriander. And then in the week, whenever we sensed a…

Bryant is the fat lass who wants to change other people’s perceptions of herself. She’s quite happy as she is, thanks very much.

For real change you need more than good intentions. You need persistence. Commit to breaking habits. Willpower alone won’t suffice. Instead of beating yourself up for failing, learn what is driving your actions. Good habits can be formed when an action is rewarded. Treat yourself to get a hit of ‘feelgood’ dopamine so you’ll want to repeat the behaviour. We fall back on old habits when stressed, so make sure your habits are positive, so the instinctive choice is also the right choice. Habits are just repeated actions. Try switching your company and stimuli.…

PHOTOS: GETTY IT WON’T AMAZE you to hear I’m not a group person. I think ‘joining in’ is what happens to those who lack the imagination to go their own way. I hate being organised, managed, run, and I believe there’s a special place in hell for social scenes, for circuits , for sets – I’ve never met one I didn’t seek to destroy with some sort of controversy or breakaway faction. The current WhatsApp group situation, therefore – according to which, we are routinely dragged from our IRL lives, off into some new online mass psychodrama spawned by a group-premise as spurious as: We All Went to the Same Dinner Party Once! or: You Guys Won’t Believe What Just Happened To Me In The Co-op! or: Family! – is…

IT’S NOT JUST cats and Baby Yoda memes that go viral on Instagram. Nowadays, the sign of a true fashion hit is one you’ve seen on the ’gram. Or make that all over it. It might only be week four of the new decade, but we’re already seeing a few pieces with sell-out potential, thankfully from trends that are set to keep on going (and going, and going). The even better news is that you might even have one of these trends hanging in your wardrobe and can simply give it a zhuzh to look ‘now’. If not, well, now you know where January’s pay packet’s going. When it finally arrives… THE BASE LAYER A sprinkle of seasoning on any look, consider a bold base layer your stealth do-it-all piece.…

Florence won’t be the only March sister lighting up awards season this year. Saoirse Ronan, who plays Jo, is also nominated for a clutch of awards. But one event has raised a quandary for the Irish actor, as she contemplates whether or not to take her relationship with actor Jack Lowden into the public eye. Both Saoirse and Jack, who she met on the set of the historical drama Mary Queen Of Scots, are nominated at this year’s BAFTAs: Saoirse for Best Actress and Jack for the EE Rising Star Award. ‘They are considering whether to walk the red carpet together or attend separately,’ a source tells Grazia. ‘They want to support and celebrate each other, and be together on a big night for both of their careers. But it’s…

PHOTO: GETTY IMAGES LAST WEEK, A NEW study from Imperial College found that 29% of women experience PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) one month after pregnancy loss, and 18% of women are still suffering nine months later. I had PTSD after my own miscarriage last year, and I’m surprised the numbers aren’t higher. At a scan, when I was 10 weeks pregnant, I was told I’d had a ‘missed’ miscarriage three weeks earlier. I was prescribed drugs to induce a full miscarriage. In the public bathroom of Tunbridge Wells train station, I passed the actual embryo. A tiny little bean, which might have had the potential to become a person. I sat on the plastic loo seat crying. I told it, ‘I’m so sorry,’ and flushed it away, racked with horror…

‘I was intimidated by the jeering in the Commons – it’s why young women don’t go into politics’ Amy Callaghan, 27, is the SNP MP who unseated Lib Dem leader Jo Swinson in December. She says cancer as a teen made her determined to help others with the disease “You don’t go into a campaign against a party leader expecting to win. I fought hard but was still quite overwhelmed when I unseated Jo Swinson. The first time I met her was as the result was read out on election night. She congratulated me and was cordial. The meme that emerged of Nicola Sturgeon [Scotland’s First Minister] celebrating my victory was criticised, but she wasn’t cheering Jo Swinson losing her seat; she was happy for me because she knows I’ve…

PHOTO (POSED BY MODEL): STOCKSY SITTING IN THE car after an appointment with a fertility specialist, my husband James disclosed something that devastated me. ‘I don’t want to have IVF,’ he said. ‘It’s not natural. I can’t watch you put yourself through it. If we’re meant to have a child, we need to just wait for it to happen.’ This wasn’t the first time he’d refused to consider going down a medical route in our now three-year attempt to have a baby, but it hadn’t crossed my mind he’d so definitively crush what our doctor had described as our only hope of becoming parents. That night, I lay in bed watching him sleep, my eyes raw from crying. He looked like my husband, but this wasn’t the man I’d married…

WHEN IT COMES TO the skin, no one likes to be caught off guard. Out-of-the-blue breakouts, unexpected dryness – we could do without them. But, while the typical reaction to erratic skin issues like these is to treat them as they happen, what if we got ahead of the game and looked to our future skin instead? ‘It is entirely possible to prepare for and prevent complexion issues, rather than acting on the back foot,’ says Georgie Cleeve, founder of Oskia Skincare. Welcome to ‘face forecasting’: a way of pre-empting the skin’s behaviour according to your schedule. Think of it as putting the groundwork in early, so that whatever life throws at you won’t show through your skin. Whether it’s almost your period, or you’ve got a hectic week ahead,…

SUPER SINGLEDOM Like Francesca, who wrote How I learned to love being alone (20 Jan), I’m in my mid-twenties, recently single and have finally realised how much time I spent in relationships because I was scared of being alone. This time, I’m actively trying to enjoy being single and having time to myself. That is a really empowering thing and I agree with Francesca that I already feel like a more centred person. That being said, it was really comforting to read about someone going through the same thing. I hope I can have the same great, positive experiences she’s had! Sophie Evangelisti…

PHOTOS: INSTAGRAM/SHAUGHNAPHILLIPS, MEGANBARTONHANSON_ WHEN SHAUGHNA PHILLIPS entered the winter Love Island villa earlier this month, she announced in her introductory VT that her best feature is her lips. ‘I’ve spent enough money on them!’ she said, pouting. She has cited other ‘tweaks’, including filler to erase her laughter lines. Of course, Shaughna, 25, is by no means the first Love Islander to have a cosmetic ‘tweakment’. Lip fillers and Botox have featured ever since the show launched, in its current incarnation, in 2015. But when Megan Barton Hanson strutted through the doors in series four, with all £25k of her cosmetic enhancements very much on show, the ‘Love Island face’ became a phenomenon. The Botox, cheek fillers and lip fillers that make up the classic Love Island face have spread…

A FRIEND AND I used to share everything – make-up, rollies, a deep appreciation of RuPaul’s Drag Race… and, when she found love, her despair at her boyfriend’s lack of interest in sex. He wasn’t up for it much – which wasn’t an issue, except she realised how much she liked and missed sex, and then we’d talk about it and weigh it all up and I’d advise her as best I could. But something changed around the time she got engaged to him, when we were in our early thirties. I asked her how her sex life was and she replied, ‘Fine.’ In that way people say that is not so much fine as ‘fin-al’. I felt like she’d shut me down. I spent the rest of that day…

It looks light and ethereal. This skin makes people look like they’re living their healthiest life.’ Season after season, skin has shone bright from the catwalks. ‘Designers want skin to look like it’s got no make-up on it.

The details people ‘I’ve been a dealer for the past 10 years and in that time people have become more confident about buying vintage,’ says Cassie Nicholas (left), winner of the inaugural BBC interior design competition show Interior Design Masters and, with her husband, owner of online shop Dig Haüshizzle. Twentieth-century paintings, she says, are popular. ‘People choose with their own eye, buying what they like rather than buying a name,’ says Cassie, who got into the vintage business when she bought a Georgian flat and started furnishing it. ‘Most popular are single pieces for over a mantelpiece, and also those that decorate small areas of the home.’ Cassie mostly sources items in the UK, buying at flea markets and auctions but also from private homes. ‘There’s always a bargain…

THE FIRST MIC-DROP, WTAF moment of psychedelic primetime weekend vaudeville show The Masked Singer happened at the end of episode two. The panel (The Hangover stalwart Ken Jeong, reality royalty Davina McCall, pop pin-up Rita Ora and national institution Jonathan Ross) were debating who lies beneath the bedazzled costume of The Pharaoh. In a moment of absolute delirium, a state of fervour percolating beneath every minute of The Masked Singer’s airtime, old Wossy suggested the hidden talent might be… Tony Blair. A collective gasp from the audience filled the studio, prompting their demented chant of ‘Take it off!’, encouraging the singer’s identity unmasking, like a rust-belt Trump rally with added Lewis Capaldi songs. It wasn’t Blair who had been singing for his supper. It was Alan Johnson, an actual Right…
