Trinny and Susannah

Hello girlies!

I'm still in a good mood from yesterday's post :-)

On Saturday Trinny and Susannah (UK style advisers) made an appearance at my local shopping centre. I swithered about going but in the end decided to go and see what they were doing here.

They had chosen 12 ladies to represent 12 different body shapes and put on a fashion show to show people what clothes are suited to each body shape and how you should dress for your shape. Before I went, I was worried that when Trinny and Susannah spoke they'd be simultaneously translated into Polish and I'd miss what they were saying in English, but the translator (the woman in the white tshirt) waited until they'd finished speaking before she translated so that was good.

It was quite a good idea and fun to watch although we didn't stay for long as it was very hot and crowded. I'm definitely glad I went though as I was excited to see Trinny and Susannah and it was so random to see them here in Poland.

Have you had any celebrity sightings?

Bye for now,
Laura

What Not To Wear

Good evening readers :-)

For those of you in the UK, I'm sure the names Trinny and Susannah ring a bell. These two ladies used to write about fashion, launched their own website and then started presenting the fantastic show What Not To Wear. I think this programme was on television for a few years and I absolutely loved it. Its purpose was to feature a different woman on each of their weekly episodes and give her £2000 to buy a new wardrobe full of clothes, particularly staples. The idea was to buy clothes that were suitable for each woman's body shape and which they felt comfortable in and would get a lot of use out of. Trinny and Susannah are notorious for being outspoken and even rude at times in their quest to improve people's dress sense but they always defend themselves by saying that they want people to feel good about the way they look and sometimes being brutally honest is the only way to get people looking good and feeling happy when they look in the mirror. As I said, I was a great fan of this show but unfortunately they stopped making it a few years ago and moved onto other television ventures which were less successful and not my cup of tea at all. However, I recently discovered that Trinny and Susannah are coming to Poland next weekend and will be making an appearance at my local shopping centre! They're going to select 12 women and feature these women (which will represent 12 different body shapes) in a fashion show.

Do you think it would be worth going to see Trinny and Susannah and watching the fashion show? I already have a couple of their books advising how to dress for your shape and I think watching the fashion show would involve a lot of standing around. I wonder if I'd even be able to hear what they were saying or whether they'd be simultaneously translated into Polish? Hmm...
