American underwear brand Jockey famous for it’s all-American style branches out for AW/14 with a brand spanking new Women’s Loungewear collection! In and amongst the collection are cosy tartan prints evocative of an Aspen Lodge but also mixed in the all American vibe certainly steeps through with the more stylish and hipper pieces such as the denim lounge dress and lounge pants.

The collection is built up into three different ranges. ‘Mountain Run’, offers casual lounge dresses, loose jersey t-shirts and shorts, cotton tank tops and boleros. The pieces in this range could definitely serve their purpose as they can be worn outdoors as well as in giving you that extra value for money.

‘Colorado Highlands’ offers a similar range but with the added fun flowery print dressing gown, cosy knitted cardigan and matching hat and scarf. Here are a few of my favourite pieces;

‘Aspen Lounge’ is definitely the part of the collection which will make you wishing Christmas would come sooner. Tartan prints and flannel fabrics are the main feature and the colours are classically Christmassy. Combined with the traditional flannel PJ bottoms and robes there are sexier pieces in the collection such as The Chemise below with lace detailing.

What I can say about the collection is that they have nailed the essence of winter comforts and well done to Jockey for making the consumer  hope for colder night just to try out the collection.

Heat Holders Thermal Socks | Review

Posted on by

Few things in life are worse than having cold feet. I have been known to wear three pair of socks in winter. When I got sent some Heat Holders to review the first thing I did was put my hand inside. They felt lovely and furry.

Autumn has arrived with a cold snap and these socks have really been put to the test. The press release says, “Heat Holders are seven times warmer than normal cotton socks and are designed to keep toes toasty warm in any weather. As far as is known, and has ever been tested, these socks are the warmest thermal socks in the world.”, but are these bold words?

I put these socks on and they are incredibly comfortable. They feel very cushiony and they keep my feet toasty. They keep your feet warm and are so thick and comfortable that I now wear them as slippers around the house. I love them and I am definitely converted. I will definitely be buying more of these socks.

Heat Holders are available in a range of sizes for men, women and children

Zaggora Hotpants Review: Do They Work?

Posted on by

I have heard of leggings and tight with special technology that makes people slimmer or improves cellulite, but I have never heard of a product which claims it can do it that has such a following. Zaggora have over 250,000 likes on Facebookand have sold over 420,000 pairs of their ‘HotPants’

The Hotpants have Celu‐Lite™ technology which increases core body temperature while being active leading to increase in calorific expenditure during and after working out as well as short-term weight loss immediately following working out. The Celu-lite technology has specifically designed lining which insulates and increases heat generation during working out to deliver better results in the short and long-term.

So, that is the science over, but do they work?

I have been exercising to lose the last bit of extra weight I still had from Christmas (ahem) and there was just this bit from my stomach that would not budge. I tried everything; working out 6 days a week, not eating dessert, spanx, but it would not budge. Until the hotpant. I decided to do the two-week challenge, but to be honest, I did not need the other week.

All I did was exercising in them three times that week for one hour and wore them (underneath my clothes) for another day. I lost about 2 inches from my waist and an inch and a half from my hips. My legs are also slimmer. The little bit of annoying weight in my stomach has gone. The hotpants would also be amazing in winter: brilliant thermals!

I recommend these. I don’t know if you could just wear them and sit around the house, but as long as you exert yourself in them they definitely work. You can even wear them doing housework. They at least double the benefits of your workout.
