Pippa Middleton signs on as Vanity Fair's contributing editor

The Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister Pippa Middleton has landed a new job as a contributing editor for Vanity Fair magazine.

In her first piece for the magazine, the 29-year-old socialite has written about her experiences at Wimbledon and how she once dreamt of becoming a professional tennis player, the New York Post reported.

She wrote that during her first trip to Wimbledon, as an eight-year-old, she bought herself a postcard of the women's championship trophy, on which she wrote that she would win this one day and signed it.

She also gave tips on which players to look out for who are easy on the eyes and writes about her and sister Kate's Wimbledon obsession.

Middleton also interviewed tennis ace Roger Federer, in which she wrote about what he eats for breakfast.

She had previously written a party planning book 'Celebrate: A Year of Festivities for Families and Friends,' which was poorly received; she also writes a monthly column for Waitrose Magazine.
