Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.My mother gave me my eye for fashion; I remember her buying a dress from John Galliano's very first collection when I was 15.My fail-safe outfit is a vintage dress with a pair of heels. Still, a boutique in Notting Hill, has a great selection of pristine vintage pieces (tel: 020 7243 2932). When I'm in New York, Cheap Jack's is great for a rummage (www.cheapjacks.com).
My style tip for all high-heel wearers is to rub Vaseline (pharmacies nationwide) on to the inside of any shoes that pinch – it softens the leather and helps avoid blisters.
Korres yoghurt face moisturiser (www. korres.com) is the only natural product I've found that works for my combination skin and smells good enough to eat.
Urban Bliss (www.bliss.me.uk) has a fantastic mix of therapists. I highly recommend a deep-tissue massage by Kim or Sybil – they have magic hands.
