When a good mate of mine sent me an email to say look at this book, I hyperventilated. There was gasping, there was speeding of pulse, there was an immediate order.

If I had tiny little hips I’d go completely crazy being inspired by loads of the things in this book. It’s probably a good thing that I can’t because some of them are so over the top it would probably not be advisable to wear them in public.

It is packed full of wonderful ideas, and I can’t recommend it highly enough for a good swift kick in the (start sewing again) pants – um skirt.
