Beard Baubles – media-wide
I start on a festive note and a crazy one at that! Over the past few days you may have seen this image of a man wearing baubles on his beard. It’s been all over online media and shared widely socially too – it’s cropped up on my Facebook feed several times already!

Julia Roberts for Givenchy – Elle
I love Julia Roberts for the way she is embracing her natural beauty as she gets older. She has completely shunned cosmetic surgery, unlike so many of her fellow Hollywood stars - Renee Zellweger immediately springs to mind. And Julia looks all the more stunning for it. No surprises then that Givenchy should chose her as the face of its Spring/Summer 2015 campaign. Bravo Givenchy! Read Elle’s report on the campaign
