Marmalade Brioche with Black Figs Stylist Magazine UK

A wakeup visual delight for the eyes. Recipe at Stylist

The perfect amalgamation of English and French cuisine, this decadent breakfast replaces bread with brioche but it has lashings of traditional orange marmalade, too, to give it an Anglo twist. If you want to turn this morning meal into an afternoon-tea treat, you can try using blackberry jam instead. Either way, serve a slice accompanied by a steaming hot pot of Earl Grey tea.

Monaco’s New Princess

Fit For a Princess: Charlene Wittstock Vogue US

Anne can vouch for the idea that Monaco is — well stodgy.  Prior to her weddind to Prince Albert, Charlene Wittstock lived alone in a small apartment in Monaco, thousands of miles from home and unable to speak French.

“It was sometimes overwhelming,” she recalls of the solitude and jealousies she suffered as Prince Albert’s girlfriend. “I was trying too hard to please too many people and at times was at risk of losing my sense of myself.”

Princess Charlene is now married to Prince Albert and is working to find her own individual persona in Monaco. Vogue writes that she will joke to fellow guests at charity galas that she is the only woman in the room who ate her entire dinner, plus two bread rolls.
