Sara Blakely has made millions from her brand Spanx, women all over the globe buying in to the slimming pant phenomenom. I have tried them for myself.

I am always happy to share my experience. Thank you to Leicestershire's premier lifestyle magazine. 

What to do on one of those dull, dark, grey days, that keeps you locked up indoors with cabin fever going stir crazy, fighting off the feelings of depression and wishing we could just book a one way flight to paradise. Even I admit to feeling a little low energy on days like these but I put that down to missing my daily walk in the countryside. The sky opened up, the rain poured and even I gave it a miss instead.

I really work hard on days like these because I truly hate to see...

I was blown away last night watching Channel 4’s Fabulous Fashionistas, a Cutting Edge Film by Sue Bourne at 10pm. I have been banging the ‘don’t forget about the older woman’ drum for so long, I had almost lost all hope until this amazing one hour documentary, following some inspirational fab style ambassadors, revived my appetite.
