Louise Roe Named Editor-At-Large At Glamour

photo cred | InStyle

One of my favorite style icons (next to Alexa Chung of course) has been named the Fashion Editor-At-Large at Glamour Magazine. Louise Roe, who is originally from across the pond, has been making a name for herself in the last couple of years first appearing on The City as Olivia Palermo’s “nemesis” at Elle and then as the host of her own CW makeover television series, Plain Jane. I actually really loved Plain Jane when I caught up with the show earlier this year, but it didn’t pick up that much steam over here in the states. I hear that is is pretty successful in the UK though.

Congratulations Louise! I can’t wait to see how you put your own spin on things over at Glamour.

Old Reruns

I can’t believe I waited a whole year to pass to finally watch Louise Roe’s television series Plain Jane. There were only six episodes to the series last summer, but ugh – this is the kind of show that warms my heart. As always, I’m a huge sucker for makeover shows that have a romantic plot. Basically, my favorite style icon Louise Roe plays host as she chooses one “Plain Jane” to make over and guide in style and confidence to ultimately end up getting the boy she wants to be “more than friends” with. Tonight’s “Jane” – whose real name is Christen – revealed her feelings for her guy friend of six years who actually confessed that he, too, had had a huge crush on Christen throughout college. Three months later, they were still together!

It brought a tear to my eye. These things in life are so precious.

Louise Roe!

You may have seen her on this season’s The City, but Louise is no reality television star. Louise is known for being a fashion reporter from London, but has since relocated to Los Angeles to host her new fashion makeover show Plain Jane. I have somehow managed to wrap Itsyowyow into a London Invasion theme this year, but this was just a coincidence. Louise is one classy lady who possesses a charismatic personality and tops it all off with a dynamic sense of style.
