Liz Jones Diary Today: I’m ready to let my guard down to the utmost. Text messages to myself are a common occurrence for me—action items. Make a list of things to buy. Ideas. I texted this to myself before I visited the gallery and lunch with the photographer, whom I’ve never met. I’m embarrassed by my actions. ‘I’m embarrassed to admit this,’ I said. As soon as your M2 eyelash serum comes, go to work. Visit Ana, the Queen of Youth, to get Botox and filler injections. Have a new set of eyebrows. For a more natural appearance, Chrissy Teigen is said to have had one; I like to have mine linked in. If only until he tells you to look at yourself in the mirror because you’ve got a David Bowie-style jagged line across your forehead because of the smearing on your face while lying face down on a massage table.]

‘Two days before the event, make appointments for a luxurious pedicure, an extreme bikini, and other services at the Urban Retreat’s premium spa, including hair color. There’s no doubt about that. I was thinking about asking the question: “Do you think I’m becoming bald?” to my colorist.” I’ve been staring at my scalp in the mirror for several months, and I’ve noticed that where my hair used to fall out in hanks, there is now baby fluff sprouting up. The odd thing about this new do is that it’s pitch black. Now that Valentine’s Day is just around the corner, it’s time to take advantage of this medical wonder. After seeing supermodel Janice Dickinson’s sister eating watermelon in Vogue, I decided to cancel the “Queen of Youth” because of its impact on my mind. Men don’t like you if you’re perfect and have a lot of good stuff. The weekend my ex-boyfriend visited, I had my tiny mansion with a lawn that sloped down to the river, a staff house, a Land Rover Defender, and a brand new Mercedes convertible. All he said was, “This must cost a lot.” It was a dramatic contrast to the day he brought me to a bonfire party at the property of a friend of his, and I had muttered, ‘Why are they constructing an addition when it’s only the two of them?’ and he had answered firmly, ‘You can never have too much room.” He never mentioned my house, fauna, and vistas. A marble fireplace and a triple-aspect drawing-room were all he could say as he stared at them. I heard him moaning, “Should have had fitted carpets!” after breaking his collarbone on the stone staircase I built for him. So, as you can see, it doesn’t matter whether you’re attractive or if you have a lot of beautiful things. Self-waxing strips purchased from Boots are preferred since they don’t scare them.

I should have known better. Models aren’t flawless, and no one is. I’ve been around magazines long enough to know this. Fernanda Tavares, a Brazilian supermodel, posed for a cover shot with me once. Her hair had grown out, and her brush was filthy. There is no doubt in my mind that she is now married to a wealthy guy. The old me didn’t think I was good enough. My yard was returfed, and my wheelie-bin liners were purchased in advance of only one guy coming over for supper. He never ventured outdoors in the dead of night. He refused to remove any trash from the property. As a result, the grass in my yard will not be mowed. It’s being re-wilded. Monty Don is going to be overjoyed. Linda McCartney never used an eyelash serum that costs £85, right? She did not. Paul was still smitten with her. She cherished her uniqueness, and that was the essential thing.

Do you know who David Scace is?

When Fitzwilliam’s departments of paintings, drawings, and prints were amalgamated in 1985, David became its Assistant Keeper of Paintings and Drawings. From 2003 until his retirement in 2013, he served as the department’s Assistant Director of Collections. During that time, David amassed a depth of knowledge about the museum’s many collections that was unmatched. As a member of the Friends and Marlay Group, he toured museums and cultural places across the world with a virtuoso performance rather than a lecture and presented with as much flair to students as to visiting dignitaries. Though he was keenly aware that museums were the keepers of historical collections that needed to be examined and disseminated, David also saw that museums needed to evolve to stay relevant… The Fitzwilliam gained a reputation among philanthropic organizations, dealers, and auction houses as the country’s most acquisitive museum during his direction. From 2005 until 2015, he worked as a member of the Acceptance-in-Lieu panel, where he was responsible for advising the museum on how to locate works of art in private ownership. Originally hired in 1976 as an assistant to the Paintings and Drawings Keeper, David rose to the position of Keeper in 1985 when the departments of Paintings, Drawings, and Printmaking were combined. From 2003 until his retirement in 2013, David served as the Fitzwilliam’s Assistant Director of Collections.

How did she grow up?

Jones is the only child of a former dancer and an Army father. With six siblings, she was raised in the hamlet of Rettendon near Chelmsford in Essex, according to her own narrative in the Mail on Sunday and Mail Online. Brentwood County High School for Girls was her boarding school of choice for her high school education. Since the age of twelve, Jones has claimed to be a vegetarian, according to her.

Jones claims to have been anorexic since the age of 11 or 12 when she “realised how ugly I looked” for the first time. She aspired to appear like Janice Dickinson by the time she was 17 years old. Vogue magazine was a life-changing discovery for her in the Southend Public Library in August 1977. To me, it was “not simply a magazine, its cover was a mirror: how I wanted to appear, dress and be.” London College of Printing educated Jones in the art of journalism. She started working for Company in 1981 as a sub-editor before rising to the position of staff writer, which she held until 1986 when she decided to become independent. With The Sunday Times Magazine, she started her 11-year career in 1989 and was promoted to deputy editor of their “Style” publication in 1998.

What did she do in the future?

She left the London Evening Standard after four years as editor of Life & Style in 2002 to take a job as Style editor at the Daily Mail, where she earned twice as much as she had before.

Jones argues that the fashion business isn’t a fan of her: “Everyone in the fashion industry despises me, and the industry as a whole is corrupt. Whenever I attend a performance, I am the only one in the audience. Many performances are no longer open to me. Fashion houses like Armani, Louis Vuitton and Chloe have excluded me from their establishments.” Also, she contributes articles about travel and accommodations for the British Airways High Life magazine. In Deborah Orr’s opinion, Jones is a “highly talented writer and obviously pretty flaky human creature.”

Journalist Tanya Gold-backed Jones in a blog post is saying, “I don’t know of any other confessional journalist in the UK who is as meticulous and self-critical as Jones.” It was Ros Coward who questioned her competence for the task of reporting from Somalia in the summer of 2011; she had previously reported from Bangladesh. A “betrayal to women” was her description of the time she called out Holly Willoughby on Twitter for publishing a selfie of herself without makeup. Phillip Schofield, the co-host of This Morning, supported Willoughby, claiming that “Liz Jones is by far the most powerful force in the battle against women’s rights. She’s erratic, spiteful, vicious, and unbalanced “Nonetheless. As recently as July 2010, Jones penned a weekly journal in You magazine about her purported current lover, the Rock Star (RS). It was only in a November 2011 interview with the London Evening Standard that she eventually revealed she was wrong about the “rock star” being Jim Kerr of Simple Minds.
