GLAMOUR ON A BUDGET

Timeout (U Time) |

Don’t worry tired Mummies, Cinderella shall go the ball! If you have some special parties to get ready for but don’t know where to start never fear for help is near. Celeb stylist Leslie Fremar, formerly of Vogue Magazine has some top tips for those of us wanting to add a bit of sparkle to our wardrobe. Leslie said…

“For women I think it’s important to take care of yourself. Go the bathroom, close the door and pamper yourself a bit. Why not give yourself a body shimmer or something that has a bit of shimmer in your moisturiser, something that accents you collar bone”.

And if you’re wanting to get your clothes right, Leslie says you can’t beat “a simple black dress and amazing accessories.”

As personal stylist to actresses Salma Hayek and Jennifer Connolly she knows what she is talking about but she admits that even they get nervous before a big party.

Leslie said “Women are women. They take care of themselves, they pamper themselves in the morning and will relax. Maybe they’ll exercise and drink a lot of water. They know that they have these events scheduled and they’ve hired a team of experts that come in and obviously they have their hair and make up done so there’s definitely a lot of effort that goes into their red carpet style.”

We also asked Leslie what women could do who wanted to achieve red carpet glamour… Leslie Said.

“My philosophy is that when these women feel good they look better. My first tip to any woman would be to take care of yourself. Drink lots of water - it’s all about the beauty regime. Find a product that you love and take care of yourself - moisturise, take baths. It’s all about just finding that 10 minutes for yourself.

Style is very important too it’s really about finding a silhouette that’s appropriate for your body type. Not all women look good in strapless or v-neck, it’s all about trial and error and finding out what works for your body shape.”
