ahhh young love. what do they say about it? it never seems to last. No sooner had i ooohed and aahed over what an adorable couple Lily Donaldson and Vladimir Restoin Roitfeld (ahem, Carine's son) made, I learn that after a few years of height (both exceed 6ft) and bliss they have parted ways. Poor Lily, I wonder if she'll be in Vogue Paris half as much now? (All jokes aside i do feel for her, but she's pretty, tall and thin, i bet she'll be taking up with some british rock star any day now!)
The blow was sweetened a little by the news that Vladimir has taken up with someone else equally as fabulous - Vogue L'uomo's Giovanna Battaglia. Pictured together in Venice on a holiday they seem inseparable, can't get enough of each other. Clearly still in the honeymoon period where everything the other person does is wonderful. Where you can do no wrong. Where you doodle his name on every scrap of paper within his reach. Where you're not quite sure where this is going, but it feels so good!
'are you mine, are you mine, 'cos i stay here all the time, watching telly drinking wi-i-i-ine.
who'dve known, who'dve known, when you flash up on my phone, i no longer feel alone. no longer feel alo-o-o-o-one.'
lily allen, who'dve known.
I hate it when people talk about things they know nothing about, but when it comes to celebrities, or at least those in the public sphere, we all think we're experts. Without knowing either party and without wishing to pass judgement (and yet, here i go), i think that giovanna and vladimir make a better couple, no? Something about the european sensibility and culture, the dark hair, the knowing gazes. I suppose you can tell a woman by her shoes, and judging by Giovanna's this woman means business.
