Dear Chantelle,
I genetically have wide hips and junk in my trunk as well as having long legs. I’ve searched and searched but can’t find any jeans that fit me just right.
Is there any place you can suggest?
Thank you for your help!

Most of us now work in the corporate world, not necessarily from the hours from 9 til 5 but all the same in an office environment.
If you work full-time then your work clothes are practically the most important part of your wardrobe these days as we tend to spend most of our lives working … You may think this is funny and I bet not many of you have thought about it but - where else in life can your clothes have a genuine effect on your future? Your appearance at work can genuinely be the difference between getting a future promotion and being stuck in the same role forever. A depressing thought, but if you feel like your stuck in a rut then why don’t try these styling tips to prove to yourself that you really can do it. It won’t happen overnight but if you think about changing one thing every week then you’ll soon see your confidence rise and hopefully your paycheck too!

Are you a retail chain, mail order, online store or simply an independent fashion boutique who specialises in providing clothing for ladies with specific requirements relating to their body shape?

Dear Chantelle,
I was so impressed with your succinct and comprehensive advice with packing for an Asian Summer Holiday I thought I’d try my luck in getting it just right for my holiday in the Adriatic this summer.
I have been lucky enough to be invited on board an 80ft yacht for two weeks in late August. My partner and I fly into Venice and after a short time there we will meet the boat to flit down the Dalmatian Coast, around the ‘boot’, perhaps Sicily and on to Rome with a two-day party stop in Dubai on the way back.
I’m really aware of the necessity to pack light for the boat but I also want to look stylish and have some options on-shore. To exacerbate the issue I’m very curvy (a bit plump) and white as a (very Scottish freckle-y) sheet. And I’ve got canckles!!
Fashion agony is a given, without some judicious advice.
Thanking you in advance,
Sarah – by email

I love skinny jeans and I also like the looks you can recreate with them but it doesn’t necessarily mean I look or feel good in them …
