Honest Mum in SPANX

Loving the SPANX Jean’ish Leggings & Win a Pair Worth £89

August 29, 2017

Honest Mum in SPANX

For those who’ve followed me forever (nearly 7 years in blog land is a million IRL, right?) I ‘huge heart eyes emoji’ love SPANX madly. I rock the black Skorts on shoots/telly under my dresses, and I have some epic nude ones which go right up to my chest that I wore after having my first child Oliver (and ever since) I adore. They suck me in and make me feel and look 108764593 x more toned (and after 2 c-sections and a #mumtum forevs) I’m endlessly grateful for them.

Now I’m sure you’ve heard of/own a pair of SPANX yourself but have you heard of SPANX Jean’ish Leggings? If not, stop everything right now, and give them your attention.

Made to look like jeans and feel like leggings, these beauties hold you in comfortably and give you a sass pot of a silhouette. The built in Slim-X shaping panel with light whiskering and sanding gives a visually slimming appearance and the jeggings are designed to hit at your natural waist for great coverage and no muffin top! NO MUFFIN TOP. Whoop!

I usually wear a UK 10 in Topshop and the UK 8-10 fit perfectly, the 10-12 were loose (you want them to hold you in too so I’d advise slightly smaller than your usual jeans).

Genius huh?! Now if Spanx could make swimwear and something to make my arms toned, I’ll be the happiest girl on earth!

These beauties retail at £89, come in black, white and denim and are available  from Harrods and online at Luxury Legs.

    I’d love to win as I have a very awkward to dress apple shape and struggle to get jeans to fit. Leggings and jeggings are my faves and these ones have the added benefit of smoothing out some of my lumps and bumps too!

Just thinking about the fact Emma Wren Gibson was Just thinking about the fact Emma Wren Gibson was frozen as an embryo in 1992 and was born in 2017 to a mother born in 1991! Wow 🤩 . Science is incredible ⭐! More details: a baby who was frozen as an embryo for more than two decades was born to a woman in 2017.

The embryo was cryopreserved for 24 and a half years, making it the longest ever frozen embryo to be successfully born, according to the University of Tennessee Preston Medical Library.

Emma Wren was born on 25 November to Tina Gibson, 26, from East Tennessee.

As an embryo, she was frozen on 14 October, 1992, about 18 months after Mrs Gibson was born. #factsdaily #facts #baby #embryo #newborn #newborngirl #research #science #newborns #ivf #momlife #didyouknow

Women are more likely to transmit intelligence genes to their children because they are carried on the X chromosome and women have two of these, while men only have one.

Despite taking into account several factors, from the participants education to their socio-economic status and beyond, the team still found the best predictor of intelligence was the IQ of the mother. #study #research #dad #iq #intelligence #didyouknow #factsdaily #facts #motheranddaughtertime #momanddaughter #momofthree #girlmom #boymom #science
