Chioma Nnadi has taken his place in a newly titled role, Head of Editorial content, while Enninful has stepped into a new global position at Condé Nast. “A few people have approached me for jobs, but I need a break,” he said. Just don’t call him idle. “I really don’t like laziness,” he said, saying he still wakes up at 5am. Well, you can take the man out of Vogue House.  Source link

It’s great if today has us bonding over caring about the state of our planet. Or is Earth Day mostly taken up with virtue-signalling brands hopping on the bandwagon? Fifty-four years after the inaugural Earth Day, it seems to have become a Speaker’s Corner of greenwashing. It feels as if companies’ green endeavours comprise 0.2 per cent of their activity, yet make up 98.8 per cent of their storytelling. A quick recap: a coal-powered start to the UK’s first Industrial Revolution in the 1760s started the emissions party. A second Industrial Revolution, powered by electricity and petrol, motored us into the 20th century. Source link

Helping visitors get to that place, and worth the seven-hour flight alone, is the fact that celebrity facialist, Anastasia Achilleos, has relocated from London to work at Kintsugi. Quietly spoken, a session with her is like one with a therapist. She works with relish on releasing the tension in the connective tissues and on loosening the jaw, “where many of us hold our pain”, incorporating cranial sacral release. Kneading and sculpting, she massages your face, head and body, intuitively knowing what your body needs from her touch. When you leave her, it’s like you are walking on air. Source link

Thirteen candidates are standing, with current Mayor Sadiq Khan “on course for victory” with 44 per cent of the vote in an early poll, though that gap has reportedly been narrowing. Tory candidate Susan Hall was next, with 26 per cent. Controversial actor and broadcaster Laurence Fox is not among the remaining 11 contenders due to “errors” in his nomination papers. Unsure who to vote for? The Standard has some handy top trumps to help you out.ESIn a nutshell: The first ever Muslim mayor of a Western capital and the man hoping to win an unprecedented third term in the role that he has called “the best job in the world”. His Tooting-born-and-raised, son-of-a-bus-driver story has earned him a loyal Labour following over the years but the vote could be tighter than predicted. What he says: “Th...

Aries: You might feel triggered by the huge pile of life admin you have to deal with right now. Yes, it’s boring. Yes, it’s mundane. But don’t let it bring you down. Instead, fill your days with small things that give you joy. Taurus: You’re the indulgent muse of all the signs, reminding us to hustle hard and take self-care just as seriously. Venus moves into your sign this week, so you have cosmic permission to splurge on your Sephora wish list. Gemini: When are you going to ask for the help you need? Your hyper-independence is exhausting you. Put your pride to the side and reach out to your nearest and dearest — they’ll be more than happy to assist. Cancer: When it comes to work, it’s time to step up and make your voice heard. Now is your opportunity to overhaul the status quo and do...

Fashion brands have rushed to get in the game. By way of campaigns, Hobbs, Kim Kardashian’s Skims and Fila (featuring Hailey Bieber looking sultry with an old racket) have all taken to tennis-themed spring campaigns. Varley, the athleisure/fashion brand, has just expanded its “club collection” — all pleat skirts, piqué polos, caps and knits. Meanwhile Mango has launched a capsule “Mango Tennis club” collection, complete with skorts, shorts and racquet-embroidered, navy cable knit sleeveless vests. Even more on the nose is Alex Eagle’s white T-shirt which simply reads “TENNIS”.  Source link

The resort is divided into five different zones: American football, baseball, basketball, tennis and surfing, with each thematically tied to different sports and featuring a dynamic cast of well-known Disney characters to help make your stay more memorable. Source link

And they’re versatile, as Hollywood’s leading men demonstrated as they rocked them on the Oscars red carpet in March. Matthew McConaughey wore Garrett Leight’s Torrey Sun style (€325, garrettleight.eu) while The Holdovers’ breakout star Dominic Sessa opted for Tom Ford’s Turner aviators (£345, luisaviaroma.com). London fashion designer Harris Reed, famous for his gender-fluid designs, wore a matching Ford pair to Chioma Nnadi’s British Vogue launch party a few days later, while Lewis Hamilton opted for a string of different, unset-tinted specs during the F1 Grand Prix in Saudi Arabia last month. All this is to say, a great breadth of characters can pull these off; no one should be intimidated.  Source link
