Working as Personal Stylist I have the pleasure of working with some really fabulous people who want to put a stop to all the 'I Don't Know What To Wear' dilemmas and start getting it right.

The last 2 weekends I've worked with several clients on their wardrobes - Wardrobe Weeding if you like, and  I also ran my very popular Capsule Wardrobe workshop.  And one thing that keeos coming up is a feeling of guilt and wastefulness.

I've mentioned a few times that in general, people wear 20% of their clothes 80% of the time.  Which means that most of us have clothes hanging in our wardrobes that rarely see the light of day.  What's going on with us for us to keep all these clothes in a cupboard?  If this sounds familiar, keep reading and let me help you out!

Boobs, I find, are a bit like hair.  If you've got straight hair, you'd prefer it curly.  Curly haired ladies straighten the life out of their hair.  You know?  And it's a bit like that with boobs.  If they're big, you want 'em smaller and vice versa.

But no matter what shape or size they are, here's one thing most women have in common.

We wear the WRONG SIZE BRA!

Now, having worked with women for 2 years now I know that most of us know we should get professionally measured every 12 months.  But I also know that few of us, including me, actually get round to doing this.  And I have to point out that even when I have been mesured I haven't always been convinced it's right.  I've found myself still floundering to buy a decent bra because of all the different styles and variations and lets be honest ladies, they aren't cheap are they?

Fortunately, being a lady in the know, I've discovered something WONDERFUL.  I want to share this wonderful knowledge with you.

Let me introduce you to Sarah...

I was invited to talk at a fantastic Swish event last week in Bristol and because we had a little time at the end, I held an impromptu Body Shape Masterclass with the gorgeous ladies who attended.  Now there is nothing more I love than being given a stage and a microphone - it's how I get to follow my passion.  No, not singing - SPREADING THE WORD ABOUT HOW TO LOOK GOOD so that you can start FEELING GOOD! 

Now I've heard a LOT of statistics but this SHOCKED me.  I asked 50 women to raise their hand if they knew their body shape.  And guess how many put their hand up?

Three.  3.  Yep - Three women only.  And that means that 94% of those women had NO CLUE about their body shape.  And I find this so very frustrating.  No that they didn't know - it's NOT their fault.  But that they have nowhere to go to find out easily.  So every time they go shopping there's nobody to say "Don't but the skinny jeans, you're a Pear shape.  Try some boot legs".  And it breaks my heart.  So today's blog is all about YOUR BODY SHAPE - MADE EASY!

Whilst on holiday in SUNNY (Yes, Sunny!) Scotland, the Hubster and I decided to sell our house in Somerset which caused a bit of reminiscing as this was the first house we bought together. And, as you do, I started having a look through old photos of the house and I came across this photo from 30th Birthday Party. Hubster had built an ENORMOUS deck in our garden especially for the event and as I'll be 35 this year, it made me think about how far I've come and all the changes that have taken place in my life.
