Hari’s is super crowded at the moment and buzzing from the excitement of lots of celebs walking in. I brought T4’s very handsome Rick Edwards along – he’s so lovely, tall and handsome so I knew he’d get the ladies smiling! Susannah Constantine – in my opinion the funniest makeover lady – came in for a new colour look, along with some other new presenters who wanted makeovers.
I spent a few days shooting with Emma Bunton and loaded her hair with Dry Shampoo and Shu Uemura Liquid Fabric. She looked so hot and ended up taking me along to a TV job she was doing. I fell in love with her personality and her very cute son and tried to stop myself asking for an autograph for my neice (not so cool!).
I shot in a painters’ warehouse for the Independent and did a few other fashion stories.
My friend Donna Air hosted a fabulous dinner party where I met Lulu (how does she look so great at 60?), Jo Wood (Ronnie’s wife and lady behind the organic range) and caught up with Jemima French and some other fashion buddies. I tried to eat the same amount as the slim ladies surrounding me but blew it by finishing left-over lasagne when I got home!
I’ve started holding girly nights in my private room with bubbles and a buffet. We’ve had lots of girls come in for manis and pedis and late night hair dos! I’ve also decided to launch a seasonal update on how to create the styles from the winter shows at home.
Life as creative director for Hari’s is definitely turning out to be fun!
Wow! Sounds really cool. Been looking for a new place to try so will give it a go. I’m looking forward to seeing what the team can do. I’ll keep you posted!!!
