After Work Drinks

Hello angels. We're back and better than ever, discussing super-recent recommendations like Dawson's Creek, which Grace has finally started watching. Naturally, this is cause to revisit the Katie Holmes/Tom Cruise saga of '06, which remains the most chaotic whirlwind romance in Hollywood history. We're also talking about Meghan Markle's New York Times op-ed - aside from bringing to light more awareness about miscarriage, it's proof that Meg has an uncanny ability to intuit the moment culturally. So why are the royals wasting her? Then, Halima Aden - the first hijab-wearing supermodel - is quitting fashion, saying the industry caused her to compromise her beliefs, and we investigate the trap of being 'first'. Dakota Johnson and Cara Delevingne are both launching sex toy companies, but are suspiciously coy about using their own products. Then it's on to a column by Dolly Alderton arguing that women should focus on having 'character', rather than being beautiful. Easier said than done?

As always, please rate, review and subscribe.
