At yoga, I suddenly had the stunning revelation that Alice in Wonderland, a book written by Lewis Carroll, actually proves Einstein’s theory of relativity.

Then again, Vivienne might be hanging out with her friend Pamela Anderson, or in India for Naomi Campbell‘s birthday party, or watching Black Sabbath in Hyde Park with Sharon Osbourne. Sometimes u may feel that her diaries are very hectic hence even more I'm proud of myself to get to the end of it and not dropping earlier.In 1992, Westwood was awarded an OBE, which she collected from Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace. Her thinking on culture and the importance of engaging with the world to develop culture (not consumption) was very clear and inspiring. Find your next must-read with the Serpent’s Tail newsletter and discover gripping crime and mystery from Viper Books.

And, to clarify, nothing she says is of the hateful manner, so it's the little things like what does art really mean? Not only was Vivienne Westwood a punk icon and fashion inventor, she was also an activist for climate change and a major supporter and friend of Julian Assange. This online magazine fuses the best high-end, progressive and luxury brands as well as independent designers.While it's not a comprehensive biography--we have Ian Kelly to thank for that--it is as close as we can get to the inner workings of her mind. Dame Vivienne Westwood, DBE, RDI (born Vivienne Isabel Swire) was a British fashion designer largely responsible for bringing modern punk and new wave fashions into the mainstream.

To be so full of energy and life at her age - and to rally against what you believe is detrimental to the future - environmental, creative and judicious. She lives a busy, busy life - and as she records her daily routine we begin to get to know this woman - in an intimate productive way.Her career has successfully spanned five decades and her work has influenced millions across the world.

You might find Vivienne highlighting tribal communities’ struggles to maintain the rainforest; another might see her visiting Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy, or driving up to David Cameron‘s house in the Cotswolds in a full-on tank. I will surely remember this book but found it naive sometimes to believe you can do anything to influence few thousands people in the world who rule 7 billion. Vivienne Westwood began Get A Life, her online diary, in 2010 with an impassioned post about Native American activist Leonard Peltier. And then there are the personal colour photographs, fashion, celebrities, musings and reflections; the passion that is Vivienne Westwood.So, I figure that I should tell you all right now that if you enjoy biographies, if you enjoy women with conviction, and if you enjoy reading about politics, this is the book for you. What we have here then is a story of the last six years of Climate Revolution and the journey that got us there. I find her fascinating and whilst I don't always agree with her and can't see the point she is trying to make on many occasions; I was still looking forward to reading her 'diary'. I’ve been a supporter of Leonard, a Native American who has been wrongly imprisoned for 35 years, for a long time. Fashion designer, political activist, national icon: Vivienne Westwood sets down her unique vision of the world in her blog, Get A Life.
