OUR GIRL’S ESSENTIAL TIPS ON LOOKING HOT ON TOP AND UNDERNEATH!

I have a big event coming up and I really want to impress. I’ve bought
myself a figure hugging dress but I can’t find the right underwear to
go with it.
Can you recommend something that will give me a smooth
silhouette and a fearsome cleavage?
There’s nothing better than wearing fab lingerie – it’s one of the
perks of being a woman – and I love the Charnos Hourglass Corselette,
£45, available from Figleaves.com.
As well as making you look
fantastic, you’ll feel wonderful knowing you’ve got such a tempting
piece of lingerie on under your killer dress!
Now winter has arrived my skin is looking really dull – any glow I picked up from the summer sunshine has most definitely gone.
How can I fake it without just piling on the fake tan and turning myself orange?
Sometimes subtle glows are the best – orange is for Oompa-Loompas only! I’d suggest a little visit to Shu Uemura – always my first stop in Harvey Nichols – to pick up a couple of subtle but effective beauty treats.

Their Rouge Unlimited Lipstick in 001, £16.50, looks terrifyingly yellow, but warms up bare lips with a golden shimmer.
It also works brilliantly over the top of other lippies! For your lower lash line I’d suggest their Drawing Pencil in Gold, £14 – it’ll give your eyes a definite summery appeal, without being heavy handed.
Now it’s dark in the morning I find it so hard to wake up. Can you recommend any fantastic beauty products that’ll make me look gorgeous and also give me an extra boost in the morning?
It’s a lot harder to feel inclined to remove yourself from a warm bed when the stars are still out, but it’s a burden we Brits have to get used to. I’ve just incorporated the Cowshed Wild Cow Invigorating Bath and Shower Gel, £16, with lemongrass, ginger and rosemary into my early morning regime as there’s no way body and mind can sleep through its rousing lather!
