country faux love
I'd love to say fashion faux pas differ from country to country, but they don't.
came lived
I came to London when I was 16 and lived with my older sister.
children preserving
Careers, children and homemaking all come above preserving your appearance. Self-preservation is at the bottom of the scale.
I was a very unconfident teenager. I wanted desperately to fit in.
jeans tend wear women
Many women are pear-shaped and tend to wear jeans that are too loose. They need to focus on what jeans will re-proportion their body.
buy jacket women
So many women buy these boxy, shapeless jackets. I always tell them to buy a jacket one size too small to get the right fit.
okay running shorts tailored uniform
Shorts are practically a uniform in every woman's closet. Tailored shorts are okay for running around, and if you're 18, you can get away with cut-offs. But it's very easy to make a mistake with shorts.
care dress easy enjoy experience interest learning lots particular pay women wrong
I find it easy to dress other women, but when it comes to myself, I find it very difficult. I used to have no particular interest in clothes. Now I enjoy it more and pay much more care and attention. But I do get it wrong lots of times, and I'm like every other woman: learning from experience.
My grandfather was Scottish, born in the slums of Glasgow.
dressed great women
You don't find women with great confidence dressed as if they don't care.
career earn model money role spend
For me as an individual, it's important that I have a career as a role model for my children, that I earn my own money, and I spend it prudently and imprudently.
family provide single slightly
In some ways, I'm slightly like a single parent, so I need to be able to provide for my family.
amazing love might recipe total using
I love the idea of cooking, but I don't like using recipe books, so I'll put a mish-mash together, and it might be amazing by total accident, or it will be a catastrophe.
I know I am not the worst-dressed person.
