Looking forward to this next appearance. Sunday, June 6. 2010ongoing diet plan with SteveProgress checkup again! At the last check I had lost a further 3/4" off my hips and today I have lost a further 1/2" from my waist and another 1% of body fat. But it sucks getting older, not just because when we look in the mirror we get a shock, but as our metabolism slows down it becomes more difficult to lose actual pounds on the scales, even when we look slimmer. So training sessions are the way forwards with heavier weights/low reps rather than low weights/lots of reps. This will apparently burn fat more efficiently. I am still on no carbs/high protein diet with thin skinned fruits always eaten with protein and lots of vegs. One cheat meal a week eating anything and alcohol with that meal too. I discovered in the last week that pine nuts, (even if eaten with a mix of seeds) can give you a nasty metallic taste in your mouth. I googled it and found lots of others had discovered the same effect. Not good! But back to normal now.

We have just been voted the worst-dressed nation after the Germans... Friday, June 4. 2010Fit Flop launch for Winter 2010/11I dropped into the Fitflop footwear launch of all the exciting new ranges of new Fitflop shoes for the Autumn/Winter 2010/11. The new range is now huge. No longer is there just a basic Fitflop flip flip but also clogs, Biker style boots in suede and leather,Mukluk sheepskin boots-both short and long legged, brand new styled "old skool" Converse-style trainers and men's and kids Fitflops. They are all so comfortable to wear, and are all engineered with the microwobbleboard technology that in activating bottom and leg muscles more efficiently can help knee and ankle joint problems, lower back pain, and even cellulite. I was one of the first people to ever road test the original ones and I cant wait to buy my Winter boots and trainers. In the meantime, I shall continue the Summer wearing my Fitflop sandals just like Nigella Lawson at the Chelsea Flower Show.

I thought Rory and the band were great - so much improvement in a year from the first gigs. In his words on facebook..... "smashed it"! watch this space ....
Tuesday, June 1. 2010Channel 5 TV. Live from Studio 5We filmed a segment for Channel 5 TV's "Live from Studio 5" in the amazing "treasure trove" emporium of Butler and Wilson jewellery and vintage clothing store on the Fulham road. My remit was to style the really pretty presenter Minnie Stephenson for a Red carpet event and chat about some of the famous celebrities I had styled in the past, with some funny anecdotes that had happened to me along the way. when styling Celebrities or indeed any of my clients, I always take their own style into consideration- never imposing my own style on them and I loved Minnie's own style. She was wearing a girly pink very short Summer dress over leggings, and a denim sleeveless waistcoat and great Office turquoise wedge sandals. With Minnie's own style as a template, and with only a short space of time to select, I selected 3 vintage evening dresses with a difference for Minnie to try. 2 out of the 3 fitted her like a glove and looked fantastic. She loved them too. You can catch us having fun on Channel 5 sometime during this next week of June 7th. Tuesday, June 1. 2010Revlon makeupI road-tested the new Revlon Photo Ready foundation makeup, whilst filming for Channel 5 TV. I loved the foundation. It was smooth and even to apply and lasted well, even though it was very hot where we were filming. It gave a professional airbrushed effect and also had light reflective qualities which is great for older skin like mine! Loved all the products! Thursday, May 27. 2010Discover the new you makeover, first impressions and styling workshopI held my monthly makeover and style "Discover the New You" workshop at myhotelchelsea, London.

The next workshop is on Wednesday June 23rd 7.30pm Tuesday, May 25. 2010A clever new site!- www.mylastsong.comI came across across a clever new site this week. Not one that we'd find "sexy" but certainly one that would be useful to all of us as we reach middle age and beyond We all hate thinking about our own mortality and that of our loved ones but this site addresses all these issues and helps you with all the things you might need to plan for on your death- from the will to the funeral, the flowers to the caterer. Even all sorts of music to choose from- hence the name of the site-"mylastsong". Once you've made your choices, you can store it all safely in a vault on the site. check it out.... www.mylastsong.com Tuesday, May 18. 2010BBC Radio Oxford at 11amDo the impossibly perfect images of celebrities that we see on the TV and in magazines create us to want to achieve unobtainable levels of perfection in how we look? Does it create dissatisfaction of how we look at ourselves and how can we overcome this? Chatting on this topic on BBC Radio Oxford at 11am Tuesday morning Tuesday, May 18. 2010my ongoing diet with nutritionist SteveI've been so busy that I've had no time to update my diet progress with nutritionist Steve, but it's now 2 weeks since my last review and I can reveal that I had a bit of a blip over the Bank Holiday weekend. After vigorously following Steve's instructions- "eat like a caveman"- only protein and vegs, I was allowed to add berries into the meal times- twice a day. That was very exciting, but even more exciting I could now have a "cheat" day, once a week, eating anything I wished! But... when in the Isle of Wight and invited out to Supper and then a Sunday lunch it was all too easy to turn a cheat day into a cheat weekend... and unfortunately my weigh-in was on the next day, so progress was slightly slowed down! Now I am on a treat "cheat meal" once a week and adding 2 portions of low-GI fruits to my berries. I am still on protein and vegs- no carbs and no other cheating! 4% of body fat By the way did I mention that Steve is the nutritionist for Fulham football team and they've been rather successful recently! Maybe I might reach the same fitness level too!....still got quite a while to go I feel. If you quote "ceril" and email to steve-hhc@hotmail.co.uk, Steve will give you a special VIP discount on your own personalised weight loss programme!
