bad bits eat enhance everybody exercise good talking ways
I don't like talking about which bits I like or don't like about my body. Everybody has something they're not happy with, and my only advice would be, 'Do something about it - exercise or eat less, but don't do nothing!' Find ways to enhance the good bits and camouflage the bad bits.
eye body way
Belts distract the eye from a bloated tummy, a heavy-set upper body and all manner of sins. They can be a superb way to update your wardrobe without breaking the bank, and there's no reason to stop wearing them, ever!
way weight helping
I eat healthily because that's the way I prefer to eat, and I'm sure it helps keep the weight off.
wings bingo way
Fluted sleeves or any sleeve that flares out before coming in again at the wrist are very feminine and a great way to distract from the dreaded 'bingo wings.'
thinking way bizarre
What happened to me in the Sixties was so major and so worldwide and so huge, there's no way I can repeat it. But in a way, I had nothing to do with it, it just took me over. It was bizarre, it was weird, and I had no control over it. I don't think anyone could have planned what happened to me.
way ifs
If you just say nothing, there is no way they can make you talk.
thinking way brilliant
I think everyone should sing - it's so good for you, as it makes you breathe deeply, and it's good for you emotionally, too. It's a brilliant release way of lifting the spirits.
begging clothes shoot stuff year
M&S clothes just get better and better, year after year. I'm always begging for stuff from every shoot we do.
possible rule
My one big rule for the over-40s is don't try to dress like an 18-year-old. It's possible to be 'on-trend' when you're older - you just have to look for the right stuff. You don't have to spend a fortune, either.
buy copy elder fabric hated liked looked
My elder sister used to get the fashion magazines, and I would go through them and find things I liked and buy fabric and copy them. But I hated what I looked like. I mean, I was sooo skinny.
balance great key shape
The key with a full-skirt shape is to balance it out with a great figure-hugging top.
I was a very, very shy, insecure teenager.

I love Kate Moss. I've worked with her a couple of times, and she is a great girl, really funny and easy to work with.
