'All That Glitters' is not only a fashion trend, but a view of Cara Delevingne's life that belies the truth. Adding author to her bio, Delevingne tells Annabel Brog that her new book 'Mirror, Mirror', published the first week in October, will show those struggling, like she did, that they are not alone. How's this for openers?

"f I fail at something, it’s the worst thing in the world because I never forgive myself,” Cara Delevingne says thoughtfully. It started at school. “I didn’t feel like I was ever good enough. The fact I couldn’t do as well as other people made me hate myself. And you’re made to feel that once you get a mark, like a ‘C’, that’s your mark in life; that’s you as a human being. That really sat with me for a long time.”
