Jean Campbell's Pain Control Advocacy in ELLE UK | AOC Updates the Breakthroughs
Scottish-born beauty and top model Jean Campbell previews lingerie-inspired lace and leather mixes, accessorized with big gold jewelry in true 1980s spirit, lensed by Ekua King [IG] for the March 2025 issue of British ELLE.
Clementina Jackson chats with Lady Campbell, revisiting the topic of pain in her life and the podcast ‘I’m Fine’ she created to talk about it.
In her podcast, Jean Campbell talks to people about their own experiences with pain management, while sharing information about new research and test results in the field. Following her lead, AOC takes a look at the latest breakthroughs in learning to embrace chronic pain while not letting it define us.
The Patient Assumes New Powers in Non-Opioid Pain Management
In recent years, the focus on non-opioid pain management alternatives has gained significant attention as healthcare providers strive to mitigate the risks associated with opioid use, such as addiction and overdose. This shift has led to the exploration and adoption of various innovative strategies and treatments aimed at effectively managing pain without the reliance on opioid medications. One of the most promising alternatives includes the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], which are commonly prescribed to reduce inflammation and relieve pain without the addictive properties of opioids.
On February 4, 2025, CNN’s Dr. Sanjay Gupta spoke about the U.S Food and Drug Administration [FDA] approval of Journavx, or suzetrigine, oral tablets. “These pain medications, suzetrigine, Journavx as it’s called, work . . . more at the location of the pain, . . . trying to block the signals coming from the source of pain, going to the brain. As a result, you shouldn’t get euphoria,” Dr. Gupta explained. And, what is so critical about this breakthrough, is its lack of addictive ingredients.

Vogue Philippines Takes Us to Baguio and Cordillera Cool, Lensed by Borgy Angeles
Vogue Philippines takes us to ‘Baguio and Beyond: Fresh Fashion Framed by Cordillera Cool’, the cover story for its February 2025 issue. Manila-based photographer Borgy Angeles [IG] captures the vibrancy of Baguio — if not its history and America’s role in creating it [literally].
We meet at the Cordilleras, where “craft, community, and indigenous wisdom reverberate through the land. Models Lake Cabrias, who the team scouted from its Manila casting call, and Fofai, who hails from the Kalinga region, hold handwoven lampshades on their hips and wear Filipino designers’ works inspired by the crafts that come out of these unique, divine-inspired lands.
America’s Colonial Ties to the Philippines
The American colonization of the Philippines happened through the Treaty of Paris at the close of the Spanish-American War in 1898. Months later, the Philippine-American War broke out in 1899, as Filipino revolutionaries sought genuine autonomy after years of Spanish dominance.
The war, which lasted until 1902, was marked by brutal combat and significant casualties, ultimately resulting in the establishment of American sovereignty over the islands.

Ralph Lauren Vintage Collection in Family Style 004 Winter 2024/2025 by Bob Jugger
Family Style magazine’s approach to content is the cultivation of a quarterly dinner party involving voices and creative personalities in food, fashion and culture.
Designer Ralph Lauren has long been at the center of this still escalating trend of branded dinner parties. Polo Bar, Ralph Lauren’s first New York City restaurant, opened a few steps east of his company’s flagship store at Fifth Avenue and 55th Street a decade ago.
In late December 2024, AOC noted that Moncler’s Italian billionaire CEO Remo Ruffini expressed great admiration for all that Ralph Lauren has achieved with graciousness and style. Ruffini called out Ralph's Coffee, the café attached to the flagship on the corner of Old Bond Street and Burlington Gardens.
Polo Ralph Lauren’s FW 2024 Campaign celebrated ‘Ralph’s New York’ in an emotional and heartfelt way. The campaign featured items from the growing Ralph Lauren Vintage Collection.
Today, these Ralph Lauren Vintage Collection pieces have made their way to Family Style Magazine 004 Winter 2024/2025.

Actor Miriam Leone covers Vogue Italia’s[IG] February 2025 issue, styled in the total Prada cover by Elena Mottola, lensed by Maciek Pozoga [IG].
Oriana Fallaci: The World’s Fearless Journalist
The early years of Oriana Falluci’s career, the late 1950s, when she was still called "the girl from the movies" working for ‘L'Europeo’ are not exposed widely in Italy or globally. This history is the focus of ‘Miss Fallaci Takes America’.
The idea for the TV series grew out of Italian/British writer director Alessandra Gonnella’s short film ‘A Cup of Coffee with Marilyn’, filmed in London in 2019. That short was based on the true story about a young Oriana Fallaci, living in America and chasing Marilyn Monroe for an interview in the 50s. The short film received wide exposure and recognition, especially in Italy where it was awarded the best fiction short film prize in 2020 by the Italian Union of Film Critics.
