Vogue is my favourite magazine. Sure i love all the others, in fact i think some of them are better than vogue (harpers uk, i'm looking at you), but at the end of the day there's something about Vogue that is just so comforting. It's got to do with the unashamed glamour that surrounds Vogue, even in these troubled times. And sometimes a girl just wants to pick up a magazine that is beautiful, really beautiful. Sometimes pushing the envelope, but always stunningly gorgeous - from pedicured toenails to expertly coiffed hair. And since you all loved my last quiz, it could be fun to find out which vogue you all are. Enjoy!

a. black
b. anything but black
c. blue - summer's always better when you're wearing blue.
d. beige - you work it so well.
e. red and cream... and a little blue.
2. your favourite stylist is
a. emmanuelle alt - the coolest girl working fashion right now, working everything from denim flares to suede fringing with a wry smile and messy hair.
b. grace coddington - upstaged anna wintour in the september issue, the only true romantic working in fashion right now, imaginative and creative to a fault.
c. NOT kate lanphear, you heard she worked for harpers bazaar australia, and they're the competition.
d. Giovanna battaglia - eternally chic and stunning to boot. She's got quite an eye for the quirky and kooky, creating editorials that are a little off kilter but oh so right.
e. lucinda chambers - she started that whole underwear as outerwear thing eons before gaga got onto it. and boho? 2 words - Daria, Morroco. 'nuff said.

4. your holiday destination is
a. The Riviera, staying in a secluded villa somewhere along the coast, drinking copious amounts of red wine and browning your skin till it freckles.
b. Nantucket, the little brother of the Hamptons that is so much quieter and less over-run with riff raff. you can drink ice tea all day whilst you read the latest nicholas sparks novel in a deck chair.
c. Byron Bay is where all the cool kids go to unwind. Not when schoolies is on, heaven forbid, but sometime in late january, when the sun seem to never set, and you can see the whole of summer stretching out before you in the belly of a wine glass.
d. You'll be off to Ibiza this summer where you'll be out every night and home as the sun rises through azure skies. You're going to party like it's 1999.
e. Glasto! Nothing says summer vacation more than mud, wellies, and a festival-chic outfit consisting of everything fringed, short and ripped. Maybe even some feathers. You're channeling rock-chic(k) after all.
5. your relationship with work colleagues is
a. symbiotic, you couldn't live without them. you dress the same, you share ideas, you all have incredible legs...
b. tenuous at best. your boss can be extremely intimidating. it's a dog eat dog (or girl eat girl?) world, anyhow.

7. your favourite model is
a. lara stone, you love that whole brigitte bardot vibe, you love that whole 'who gives a fuck' attitude, you love that she smokes 3 packs a day, you love that you've made all your friends love her too.
b. karlie kloss, she's youthful and clever, an ex-ballet dancer who knows how to work it for the camera, and she's mischevious in that cheeky, adolescent kind of way.
c. it used to be myf shepherd, but she had a bit of a lacklustre runway season. so it's back to the abbey-lee worship. Patriotism is the name of the game.
d. sasha pivovarova, the ultimate chameleon and such good value. You feature her at least once an issue, and she's never let you down. A veritable chameleon.
e. kate moss, still the one for ineffable cool and sultry pouts. So her personal style may have eclipsed her modelling glory, but you remember her days as a fresh-faced thing (dating johnny depp!) and you love her just as much now with her wily eyes and shambolic personal life.

b. the menu is being handled by the party planner, darling. the guest list will be a mixture of bright young things, glitterati and old school establishment - just as it should be.
c. fresh seafood platters - prawns, oysters, mussels, clams, lobster, squid - barrels of white wine, fresh produce, fresh everything... guzzled down by a mixture of achingly cool beach types and sun-kissed girls.
d. groaning platters of pasta, creamy panna cotta for dessert, gaspacho. yum. a sophisticated crowd descends on your villa for gossip and giggles.
e. the piece de resistance will be a cloud cake - rich chocolate cake topped off with light as a feather whipped cream - plucked from nigella lawson's 'feast' (she will be attending, and the pressure is on). Lamb for main. Lots of gravy. A healthy mixture of rock progeny, quasi-aristocrats and fashion subversives will attend.
10. your bookshelf is
a. intimidating. photography monographs rub shoulders with the existentialists and proust.
b. beautiful beechwood pine, hand-sanded and painted by ecuadorian housewives... oh you meant the books on the shelf? the Great American Novel of course. All 7 of them. Lots of Fitzgerald. A healthy amount of Dickinson. Plum Syke's two best-sellers.
c. fresh. Everything modern and postmodern. Murray Bail. Evie Wylde. Patrick White. Peter Carey. You like novels that are a little bit kooky.
d. subversive. you like books that are a little bit weird. Machiavelli holds pride of place.

d. a huge cocktail ring with a big ruby in the middle. Glamorous and unabashed. Just like you.
e. a charm bracelet. you've collected charms across the world for it, and accumulated quite a collection. The thimble you picked up in Marakech. The enamel playing card you won in a poker game in Monaco. The scrap of your mother's wedding dress encased in a little miniature frame. Ah memories.
