Glastonbury.

I was lucky enough to go to Glastonbury this year for the first time. It was also the time of my life (really)! I felt like a bit of a mess, but apparently Vogue did not think the same. They took my picture and also my friend Charlotte's picture. I learnt my lesson this time round and just told them that I work "at the Southbank Centre" rather than being a "visitor services host" like I goofily did when the Guardian asked-remember that?

Points I would like to make about this picture,
1. I was NOT sunburnt even though I look it. Charlotte made us reapply factor 30 suncream every few hours, even when it was raining.
2. It was very, very hot and I was a bit drunk.
3. I NEED to learn how to pose. I look like I'm carrying two invisible shopping bags. Next time there will be a hand on the hip, a bent leg, a little smile perhaps or even a look over the shoulder.
4. I promise you I am not actually balding, it only appears this way.

I would also like to point out that Charlotte was wearing a super cute PLAYSUIT, not top, from Topshop. More difficulties in going for a wee but she looked infinitely prettier than me as the frills danced about in the breeze whilst I stomped about in my wellies and boy outfit. Sad face. Again, will put more effort in next time.

We haven't seen too much of Agyness Deyn for a while, but here she is chillin' with some cheetahs in the May issue of Vogue UK. Shot by Tim Walker, I think the most amazing part of the shoot is the location - an abandoned town half buried with sand in the Namib desert. Looks and sounds like total fantasy, but thanks to Vogue its been made real, which is what repeatedly sets it apart from other magazines.

P.S. Spot the reference to Keira Knightley in Atonement in the last picture.
