There are many things Editor-in-Chief Lorraine Candy has achieved in her 10 years at the helm of ELLE (you've heard the one about the Tiffany ashtray for Donatella Versace, right?)
But here's an impressive one even she couldn't have foreseen when she joined: she's been named among the top 50 most influential journalists on social media by the Press Gazette.

It's little wonder, really, when you look at a sample section of tweets fired out by @LorraineELLE NB also a mother of four on a typical day:
-
Today is SO complicated due to school/play date/work appointments that I am going to ask NASA to work out how to do it all. #impossible
-
Last wk an Olympic athlete ran an 800m race 9 months pregnant..we love this #likeagirl film | ELLE UK http://www.elleuk.com/star-style/news/likeagirl-always-film-feminism via @ELLEUK
-
We discussed shooting baggy leather trousers for a page in October issue in fashion meet. Put a stop to that. Which is why I am the editor.
...Plus too many tweets about doughnuts to mention (she's followed by Krispy Kreme).
The only editor of a female glossy to make the cut, Candy's in good company Piers Morgan, who has four million Twitter followers, tops the list, with Caitlin Moran coming in second.
Indeed, Moran and the unidentified @FleetStreetFox were the only women to make the top 10, with the full list including just nine female journalists.
