Introducing … New Contributor Louise to This Is Glamorous
IF YOU FOLLOW ALONG on Instagram, you may remember a beautiful grid of tiny illustrations featured there nearly a year ago; they were done by Interior Designer & Illustrator, Louise, who is currently based in Edinburgh. After the pleasure of a few lunches and cosy chats over wine in favourite pubs, it became clear that Louise would be a wonderful addition to This Is Glamorous and recently made her debut as Interiors Editor.
Read her articles on Gustavian style, beautiful pink rooms to fall in love with, and most recently, an At Home With featuring Melissa Odabash, if you have not done so already. We are thrilled to welcome Louise as part of the TIG family and know you will love her work as much as well do.
And in other exciting news, some of your very favourites from thisisglamorous.com/shop & Belgrave Crescent are back and available for Pre-Order . . .
The wonderfully chic illustration by Louise that began it all — a few shots from the This Is Glamorous Instagram account that she casually put together . . .
And congratulations to Victoria, who just found out that she will be interning at British Vogue this summer. She will, of course, continue her role here as Fashion Contributor, bringing you beautiful articles such as An Italian Winter & Gucci Girls.

A platform bed is a modern and minimalist bed frame characterised by its low-profile design and solid, flat surface that supports a mattress directly without requiring a box spring.
