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.

Honest Mum in SPANX leggings

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).

SPANX jean leggings

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.

    After having 2 children I piled on quite a lot of weight and I have now managed to lose 3 stone but this then leaves the problem of loose skin around my thighs and tummy so I really need something to just pull it all in a bit and give a more flattering figure and I reckon these would do just the trick 🙂

What a special day Monday was, made even more so b What a special day Monday was, made even more so by bringing my Mum, and daughter, Florence, 4, along to @10downingstreet for a garden party (like no other) to celebrate those advocating for parents and children in the UK. The last time my Mum had a tour at No 10 was when she was a uni politics student and she got to meet the PM at the time, Harold Wilson! It was wonderful to enjoy the activities in the rose-filled gardens, drink Pimms and meet so many pioneering creators and journalists making a difference to families. We even made it into a little London mini break. I also wanted to share here what this government have done and are continuing to do for families. * 30-hours of free childcare each week, saving working parents an average of £8,000 a year per child. 
* More nursery places near you through the school-based nurseries programme with over 5,000 new places now in schools to make childcare easier to access. 
* Ending the two-child limit, lifting 450,000 children out of poverty. 
* Free school meals for all families on Universal Credit, with over half a million more children benefitting from a free nutritious meal every school day and saving parents £500 a year.  
* Free breakfast clubs at school, saving parents up to £450 a year by giving them an extra 30 minutes of free childcare each morning. 
* Cheaper school uniforms, with limits on branded items, saving parents £50 per child. 
* Day-one paternity leave for new dads, so families have stronger rights and more security from the start.  
* Day-one rights to unpaid parental leave, so working parents can take time off when they need it, without having to wait a year to qualify. 
* Saving on summer holidays: We’re cutting the VAT from 20% to 5% on children’s meals, trips to the cinema and theatre, and days out at attractions like soft play, museums, zoos and amusement parks.
* Free bus travel for every child aged 5 to 15 in England.
* Best Start Family Hubs expanded across England, offering support from pregnancy through the early years with advice on infant feeding, mental health support, and early language skills, all in one place for families. #keirstarmer #primeminister #parents #mothers #viral

Radio Frequency (RF) helps stimulate collagen and elastin production to support firmer, tighter looking skin and improve the appearance of fine lines, whilst cold therapy helps calm, soothe and refresh the skin, reducing redness and puffiness. The LED light therapy mask helps target different skin concerns including acne, inflammation and signs of ageing, leaving the skin looking brighter, healthier and more radiant.Suitable for all skin types and perfect for anyone wanting smoother, clearer, more refreshed skin with no downtime.  #over40 #hydrofacial #relatable #fyp #viral@
