Men Are Idiots 

This is painful for me to write, because, as a man, I tend to defend my species. We are not all idiots, many of us are conscientious and polite, who are willing to pull out chairs and open doors for women. We’ll go shopping with you and spend time doing what you want to do. But some men really let the side down. Some men, simply put, are idiots. And they do not help my case at all

Why, do men consider cheating on women? It’s an alien concept to me it really is. And I’m not saying that women don’t cheat as well, I’m not saying that it’s solely a male problem, but speaking as a male it just doesn’t make sense to me. Maybe I don’t have that gene in my make up, maybe I am a new form of man that is super responsible and honest. Or maybe I just have morals. The one thing I can say with absolute honesty, is that I have never cheated on anyone

But rather than me going through the sordid details of friends and acquaintances, of people I know or the stories I’ve been told, lets look at the big examples, of men in the media being caught with their pants round ankles, having cheated on some of the most beautiful women in the world, never mind Britain, and please, if someone understands them, explain it to me. Explain how any man could do that to any woman.

White teeth - Looking for an inexpensive way to brighten that smile? Forget about those whitening strips and gels. Why not try applying baking soda to your teeth. Simply brush your teeth and normal and rub the soda on your teeth and brush again. There you have it a ‘Hollywood smile’.

For a fresh face- Slice up some grapes and rub the cut sides over your skin as the fruit acids act like natural exfoliators

To open up those eyes apply wet green tea bags to your eyes. The natural properties of these herbal teas will help bring puffy eyes back to their original size.

Get a bronze glow- Mix your face cream and bronzer power into a solution and there you have it an instant protective glow

Shiny Hair- Mayonnaise hair mask. The popularity of mayonnaise for conditioning hair, is due to the fact that the 3 main ingredients, eggs, vinegar, and oil, are all great for restoring your hair’s moisture. Read & comment on the full article HERE

 1.     Know what colours do and do not suit you. 

Colours can do unpleasant things to your face, they can alter your skin tone by making you appear greyer, yellower, redder, darker or lighter.  They can also make your face shape appear rounder, wider, longer or shorter. If you are unsure here is a quick link to check which colours are your friend and which colours you should avoid.  COLOURS

2.     Know your body shape, it's important to know which shops cater best for you.

You are either:

o    Angular (mainly straight lines)

o    Curvilinear (mainly curved lines)

o    Interjacent (both curved and straight lines

Bear in mind you are three dimensional, so look at yourself from all angles not just straight on.  With this you should be able to eliminate shops that do not cater for your shape i.e. M&S mainly cut for curved shapes but if you are angular you may feel a little swamped in these clothes, whereas the likes of Mango mainly cut for angular shapes so you may feel a tad constrained in these clothe

3.     Ignore clothing size labels,

Unless you purchase your clothing from one shop/brand only.  They all differ, nothing is the same and the models manufacturers used to use as clothing templates are no longer recognisable to the average size women.  Pick three sizes of the item you like, one of the size you think you are, and the others a size smaller and larger.  Nobody can see your label, it's all psychosomatic trust the way it looks and feels, not what the label reads, if it offends you that much CUT IT OUT!

 4.     When you try a piece of clothing

When in the changing room, especially if it is clothing for your top half, move around.  Reach your arms up and down, twist from side to side, jump up and down, then look at yourself asking the question does this still look good?  Because we do not stand still all day long, clothing rises and twists but if it falls neatly that's great if not...move along nothing to see!

 5.     Always think..Is what I'm wearing comfortably loose?

Unless of course you have gone for the skinny jean/spray on look.  Tight things showing all you lumps and bumps look badly groomed.  But don't confuse comfortably loose for baggy as again this has a tendency to look scruffy and badly groomed.

6.     Once you know what colours suit you

Purchase at least four good fitting vest tops of strong colours, so you can easily and quickly add colour to a neutral outfit.  People who wear colour appear much more approachable and appear friendlier.  You can wear these underneath jackets, cardi's, shrugs, pashmina's etc.

 7.     invest

It's worth paying more for key pieces for your wardrobe that will last, your list should include:

o    A good pair of jeans

o    A tailored jacket

o    A good coat

o    A tailored trousers/skirt

o    A white or light shirt/blouse

o    A good fitted black dress

o    About three coloured scarf's/pashmina's and two neutral colours

o    Four coloured vest tops

Build these up over time you should be good to go by next season.

8.     Get your bra size measured

You should only get your bra size measured from the shop you are going to be purchasing your bras from.  Like clothing these vary enormously from one shop to another. Don't forget to get your size measured once a year.

I promise you'll never want to leave.

Well Ladies and Gents if you want to get away from it all this is how to do it...

Book yourself in at the Award Winning St. Pancras Spa London,  conveniently located a stone's throw away from all main tube and train lines.

I was there last night escaping into sheer blissfulness with an amazing Arabian Summer Treatment.

Afterwards I chilled out in the relaxation room catching up on all my fashion magazine glossies, whilst sipping rose tea and nibbling nuts, seeds and dried fruit.  But it does not stop there, with every treatment you can use the beautiful spa area, take a dip in the refreshing pool or relax and experience the wonderfully uplifting  Jacuzzi jets, where you can sit and chat in the seated area or chill out in the individual Jacuzzi beds.  The Spa also hosts a Gym, Steam room and Sauna.  The Spa is very kindly offering all 'style to you'  readers a special offer on the Arabian Summer Treatment or the Victorian Nights Treatment which is complete with a cocktail.
