Well I definitely think that if anyone can help put Syria on the map right now it is Alexa? It was like this lightbulby whatever in Ottolenghi, I went to Sarah & Emily, look at the genius way Alexa has got everybody obsessing about hot pants & eyeliner plus high maintenance hair being like REALLY traumatic, I mean have we talked about anything else for the last two hours, so imagine that was like chemical weapons and refugees and the Russians being so incredibly rude to Dave, if Alexa was involved the war could literally be over by fashion week? Emily was like I KNOW, right, shall I text her, God Alexa will go mad for our feathers #crazy, Sarah was like, stop, what does Alexa know about military strategy, remember we have actual veterans queueing up to join the Order, just this morning I had to turn away General Aaronovitch & now he has blocked all of us on twitter?Well I definitely think that if anyone can help put Syria on the map right now it is Alexa?

I'm like, no offence Sarah, but if you are totes ignorant about the pivotal role of the Mulberry bag in late-modern fash history it is kind of hard to get the whole Alexa thing, but trust me, there are people who will not put on opaque tights until she does & if anyone can make war fun and young and hip, it is Alexa?I'm like, no offence Sarah, but if you are totes ignorant about the pivotal role of the Mulberry bag in late-modern fash history it is kind of hard to get the whole Alexa thing, but trust me, there are people who will not put on opaque tights until she does & if anyone can make war fun and young and hip, it is Alexa?
Well Alexa sweetly txted that Syria sounded srsly crazy but at this time her first duty must be to Vogue #wisdom but how about we went for something super low maintenance, warwise? But Sarah was like well I for one will not stand idly by, Haguey must commence hostilities: no FROW seats at fashion week for Russian oligarchs' wives.Well Alexa sweetly txted that Syria sounded srsly crazy but at this time her first duty must be to Vogue #wisdom but how about we went for something super low maintenance, warwise?

Emily was like, whoah, unilateral, much, won't their suffering just make everything worse #goodpoint, I'm like, excuse me, how exactly does that help our interests in our first ever LFW, have you not considered the destabilising effect of an illegal intervention on the whole accessories world, plus Mummy says the Abramovitches are just the nicest people, so warm? So unfort the Order of the Pink Feather has been indefinitely disbanded, I said to Dave, maybe Alexa is right, as per, & war should be more like not blow-drying every day, after all she is a hair icon?Emily was like, whoah, unilateral, much, won't their suffering just make everything worse #goodpoint, I'm like, excuse me, how exactly does that help our interests in our first ever LFW, have you not considered the destabilising effect of an illegal intervention on the whole accessories world, plus Mummy says the Abramovitches are just the nicest people, so warm?
