driven family focused good quite
I think I'm very focused and am quite a good multitasker, and I'm quite driven in knowing what my responsibilities are to my family and knowing what I've got to do to do that.
I would never go out in track bottoms and a baggy T-shirt.
enjoy morning waking
I enjoy waking up in the morning and thinking, 'Who do I want to be today?'
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.
home
I grew up in a very normal home.
stories
I don't have a problem with the stories saying I'm skinny at all.
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.
Even my basic, basic wardrobe is still pathetically colour coordinated. It just is. That is just me.
We all know what we don't like about our bodies.
To me, a yummy mummy is a mum in her twenties, like Donna Air.
My grandfather was Scottish, born in the slums of Glasgow.
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.
