4) heritage fabrics 5) layering<br />

Believe it or not her Majesty<br />

the Queen has been at<br />

the forefront of designer’s<br />

inspiration this season.<br />

Heritage tweed you would<br />

expect to see on the<br />

Balmoral estate has been<br />

dusted off and worked into<br />

Eighties proportions at Marc<br />

Jacobs and sexy tailored skirts<br />

suits nipped in at the waist at<br />

Alessandra Rich.<br />

STYLE TIP:<br />

Wear tweed with<br />

anything from<br />

coloured opaques<br />

to nineties<br />

inspired sheer<br />

black tights.<br />

Whether it’s a sheer<br />

black body at Alexander<br />

Wang layered under a<br />

tweed biker jacket or<br />

a longline shirt and<br />

skirt over trousers at<br />

Gucci, the buzz word<br />

around layering was<br />

protection. Layer up<br />

correctly and there’s no<br />

way you’ll feel the chill<br />

this winter.<br />

STYLE TIP:<br />

Wear Spanx arm<br />

tights under your<br />

top, dress or coat to<br />

give you that layered<br />

look whist keeping you<br />

warm.<br />

interview<br />

Worklife<br />

Kate Shapland<br />

We meet Legology founder Kate Shapland to discuss work, life and her<br />

tips on getting the perfect pins<br />

Why did you set up legology?<br />

I developed Legology because I’m on<br />

a personal crusade to give us happier,<br />

healthier legs. I felt consumers were being<br />

shortchanged because the only offerings<br />

were cellulite creams that seemed to be a<br />

bit of an afterthought. I wanted to develop<br />

a dependable brand that worked really well<br />

and felt wonderful too.<br />

What were you doing before legology?<br />

Until I developed Legology, and in fact for<br />

quite a while after I launched the brand, I<br />

worked as a beauty writer. I had a very<br />

good overview of the market and what was<br />

18.<br />

missing from it. My last job in journalism was<br />

as beauty editor of the Telegraph Magazine,<br />

and this gave me the best insight of all<br />

because I felt very in tune with the reader<br />

and understood what she wanted to find on<br />

the beauty pages and counters.<br />

What is the secret to launching your own<br />

beauty brand?<br />

Not to overthink anything to begin with and<br />

not to compromise. Just be 100% in love<br />

with what you are developing and crack on<br />

with it. The digital age has, in many ways,<br />

made it easier to launch a beauty brand. But<br />

it isn’t the whole solution. You still need


esources and cash flow is grim - the digital<br />

revolution hasn’t done away with any of<br />

those traditional stumbling blocks.<br />

Which other women in business inspire you?<br />

I’m inspired by women who are positive,<br />

have lots of interests, are courageous and<br />

have great individual style, whether they’re<br />

in business or not.<br />

Where is home?<br />

I live in west London, near the Thames.<br />

What is your favourite way to relax?<br />

Walking and gardening. They’re both great<br />

at clearing your head and it’s good to get<br />

your fingernails dirty.<br />

What is your morning beauty routine?<br />

Breakfast for my scottie dogs and coffee in<br />

bed for me. Shower, application of Legology<br />

Air-Lite, my hero deep drainage cream and<br />

a walk along the river. When I get home I’ll<br />

have a bowl of natural yoghurt with oat bran<br />

in it and crack on with the day. Sometimes,<br />

however, I do none of this and stay in bed<br />

working and then get up and have a French<br />

breakfast. It’s all about balance!<br />

What would be your one tip for women who<br />

are self-conscious of their legs?<br />

Try body brushing every day for a week and<br />

see how much better it makes you feel about<br />

your legs. This is an incredibly simple task,<br />

requiring minimal input for maximum results<br />

- pinkness and tone that makes legs look<br />

100% better instantly. All you need to do<br />

is brush in quick flicks all over your body - it<br />

shouldn’t take more than a minute, and you<br />

can brush your skin when it’s dry, wet (in the<br />

shower) or damp (after a shower) - it really<br />

doesn’t matter as long as you do it.<br />

Competition<br />

Enter for your chance to win a<br />

fabulous Legology experience! You<br />

could win the full Legology range as<br />

well as a signature leg contouring<br />

treatment to enjoy from the comfort<br />

of your own home.<br />

How To Have Summer Ready <strong>Legs</strong> All Year Round<br />

The pre-summer panic of having to ditch our trusty opaque<br />

tights in the heat is all too familiar but creating new daily<br />

beauty habits will give you perfect pins all year round.<br />

SCRUB<br />

Once or twice a week apply Vita<br />

Liberata’s Super Fine Exfoliating<br />

Tan Prep to dry skin before having<br />

a shower. The soothing mix of<br />

beeswax, sweet almond and<br />

walnut have skin smoothing and<br />

body-contouring benefits that<br />

are not only anti-inflammatory<br />

but restore elasticity and lock in<br />

moisture for up to 72 hours.<br />

Vita Liberata Super Fine Exfoliating<br />

Tan Preparation, £12.50<br />

NOURISH FROM WITHIN<br />

The skin tone of your legs often<br />

reflects what you are putting into<br />

your body. Simply drinking at least<br />

2 litres of water<br />

a day will not<br />

only reduce<br />

your calorie<br />

intake but also<br />

help flush all the<br />

toxins through<br />

your body.<br />

30.


Work on your tan<br />

Giving your legs a subtle<br />

golden glow in the winter<br />

months is a great way to<br />

feel more confident. Vita<br />

Liberata’s Fabulous Self<br />

Tanning Gradual Lotion<br />

slowly builds as you apply<br />

it to give a sun kissed<br />

glow. This organic self<br />

tanner locks in moisture<br />

to make sure it fades back<br />

to nothing when you stop<br />

using it.<br />

VITA LIBERATA Fabulous Self<br />

Tanning Gradual Lotion, £15<br />

Hydrate<br />

One of the easiest ways to have smoother<br />

looking legs is to keep them hydrated.<br />

Apply moisturiser every morning as soon<br />

as you get out of the shower to get you<br />

into a routine. In the coldest months apply<br />

before bed focusing on dry patches such as<br />

knees and cracked heels.<br />

Legology’s Air-Lite Daily<br />

Lift is a powerful diuretic<br />

cream which helps contour<br />

your legs, enhance<br />

hydration and discourage<br />

cellulite.<br />

THE BAR<br />

Waeska, London<br />

The Mandrake Hotel in the heart of London’s<br />

Fitzrovia is the most talked about, yet equally<br />

one of city’s best kept secrets. Waeska, one<br />

of the hotel’s 3 bars, opens onto the hotel’s<br />

highly Instagrammable central courtyard with<br />

hanging gardens of jasmine and passion flower<br />

and is a must see. The cocktails are pretty too.<br />

THE HOTEL<br />

Artist Residence, Bristol<br />

Justin and Charlie Salisbury have been carving<br />

quite a name for themselves in the UK<br />

travel industry with their chain of bohemian<br />

boutique hotels. It all began with a townhouse<br />

hotel in Brighton in 2008, with the couple<br />

recently opening their fourth outpost in rural<br />

Oxfordshire. A fifth Artist Residence will<br />

follow in Bristol in 2019 complete with their<br />

eccentric English style customers have grown<br />

to know and love.<br />

THE DESTINATION<br />

Tokyo<br />

In 2020 Tokyo will host<br />

why 2019 is the year to<br />

visit. With the highest<br />

number of Michelin-rated<br />

restaurants than London,<br />

Paris, New York, and San<br />

Francisco, investment<br />

in entertainment,<br />

infrastructure and<br />

tourism has never been<br />

higher but you’ll be able<br />

to skip the huge crowds<br />

that will be seen the<br />

following year.<br />
