SIMON SAYS:

WE CAN'T ALL
BE AUNT JOYCE

Writer, bon-vivant, and absolute icon Simon Doonan is also known as Jonathan’s shorter half. Today he’s got bling-y glamour on his mind (who doesn’t?).

Maybe you are not a big old hippie like your Aunt Joyce. Do you recoil from fringed vests and dreamcatchers? Are muddy festivals your idea of hell? Don’t reproach yourself. Not everyone is cut-out for the hippie-dippy life.

Maybe you are more about 70’s sophistication – think Studio 54, or Halston’s monochromatic Paul Rudolph-designed apartment – than counter-culture style. Choose blingy minimalist opulence over crunchy clutter. Don’t worry, you can still listen to your Joni albums. I promise I won’t tell. (Tell who?)
