<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana;">1 Shop in affluent areas, especially if you are a label hound as theses stores tend to have lots of designer, well made and harder to find goodies. In Kensington I found a Louis V Epi clutch for just £25, in Wimbledon I got a Burberry jacket for £15 and in Winchester I got a custom made men's tuxedo jacket that I wear as a blazer over dresses for just £5.95 (see below).</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> So the other day at work we had one of those dreaded team days, you know those bonding days full of "airport hugs", "who moved my cheese" , "eat that frog" and other corporate team building box checking exercises.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> Except this wasn't it was actually quite good ( I say in animated tone of surprise)</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Upon reading the brief we were asked to bring a personal object that represented something about us that people may not know and/or something that represented our values. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">My first thought being the rebel that I am was; I am not doing this, I cannot be summed up in one inanimate object.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> Secondly it's a new team I shall be clever (read a smart arse) and I will take an empty plastic container labelled E Coli, because although it's a bacteria, like me it's complex! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">But that would have just been lame so I decided to play ball.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">One thing that seems to surprise people being a white "middle class" mummy is that I listen to Hip Hop so I did think it would be quite funny to dig out some Cyprus Hill but then people might just assume I am a stoner. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Off I went back to the drawing board.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"> </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">What Hip Hop could possibly represent me? Thinking long and hard: Skinny Man "A Council Estate of Mind" </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">This album could sum up my journey to who and where I am today in both content and title because as it states it's <i><b>"talkin bout the science of social deprivation</b></i>" </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875);"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">I hadn't expected to but I found myself opening up, my speech went something like this;</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i>"not a lot of people know this but I am quite into Hip Hop not the "gangsta rap" that most people think it is all about but the type that is more of a social commentary. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i>This album speaks to me because it reminds me who I am and where I came from; I was born to a single teenage mother and grew up on a council estate in South West London. Drink, drugs and violence were all that we saw around us. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i>People rarely worked and hardly anyone got GCSEs. So doing A levels was an anomaly and as for University. I was and still am the only person in my entire extended family to have gone. For many of you (looking around the room to my audience of 9) this is normal but trust me when I say that where I am from its pretty extraordinary.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i> Like many of the girls around me and my own mother I feel pregnant in my teens, albeit much later than most at the grand old age of 19! </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i>I had my daughter on the 28th Dec and sat an exam at Uni 4th of Jan, getting 64%. I went on to get 72% on my dissertation which was the second highest grade in the entire humanities school that year. Finally gaining an overall strong 2.1. I don't mean to brag or sound conceited but I did better than most while raising a baby and supporting myself entirely. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i>This story is indicative of my strong work ethic and belief that if something is worth doing then its worth doing properly.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><i>The <b>"Council Estate Type of Mind</b>" is a very distinctive mindset of what broken Britain now refers to as the underclass (because working class is just too generous a description). A wider society that writes off children from certain postcodes who in turn feel worthless and indulge in reckless behaviours; they truely are examples of the self fulfilling prophecy notion. I however sought to and succeeded in avoiding this trap and for that I am proud"</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Needless to say my audience was, as I was pretty shocked at my frankness. While I didn't share many personal experiences in great detail and kept it fairly general I had been far more open than even I had expected or intended to be, but it felt good.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">You see to the outside world I am a middle class professional woman with 2 children and a partner, and yes it is my elder child's father, not all teen mums end up single! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">I don't just have a good job but a VERY good job that allows me to travel the world and do things I could have only dreamt of as a child.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"> I live in a nice detached house on a decent area and unlike my mother I never have to face decisions like warmth or food. I am blessed and I think I more than anyone else needed that reminder. The little girl who would spend the occasional Sunday night in the dark because "the leccy key had run out" was me and she went on to achieve more than she had dreamed and all before the age of 30. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">The only downside being that when I go home I am the <i><b>"outsider" </b></i>or the <b><i>"snob"</i></b> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">because I am no longer seen as the hard working person I am, just lucky.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">If your reading this and have had certain views about teenage mothers and/or those from council estates I would ask you to reevaluate your opinions. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Where you are from does not make you a bad person, nor does having a child young. It doesn't mean that they are <b><i>"benefit cheating, work shy freeloaders" </i></b>or any of the other derogatory terms that people use. If you do/have used such terms or had similar opinions without rhyme or reason, then you are part of the problem that means many young people do not even realise their potential let alone actualise it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Our little society would be far better if we practised positive reinforcement instead of negativity.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana; font-size: x-small;">Peace Out</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(175, 192, 227, 0.230469); -webkit-composition-frame-color: rgba(77, 128, 180, 0.230469); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.296875); font-size: x-small;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">For the weeks that follow having your little bundle(s) of joy your appearance will be irrelevant (and quite rightly so) as you enjoy and adapt to motherhood. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Once however you have found your feet and settled into a routine that will all change and you might want to start focusing a little more on you. Your little one however may have other ideas so you need to learn how to look good fast, with practicality at the forefront.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"> Here are my top 3 tips on post pregnancy fashion and beauty:</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">1: Firstly its important to remember that you are not a supermodel/singer/ actress, unless of course you </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">actually are, but either way its unlikely that you will drop your baby weight in record time as some seem to, as the realists say "9 months on, 9 months off" .</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"> So relax and accept that it is okay to wear your "fat" clothes in the weeks and months after you give birth, the key being to jazz these up to help you feel a little less frumpy. While a skinny belt will work wonders, cinching you in and showing of that much missed waistline for me a staple of my post pregnancy wardrobe is the wedge boot/ trainer. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Why? Well firstly I absolutely missed wearing heels while pregnant and put them straight on as soon as I could but quickly realised they were not practical for my new lifestyle which involved more walking than just tottering around the office. Plus after the broadening and flattening of your feet that happen in the later stages of pregnancy (glamorous truth alert) they weren't that comfy anymore and having not actually worn heels for some months I struggled to balance. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">The wedge was therefore an appropriate solution as while giving you the height and posture we crave from heels they are much easier and comfier to walk in. The added bonus is that they do this strange optical illusion thing that makes your calves look really slim!.When teamed with a nice dress you have the fashion you crave but the practical comfort required for any new mummy.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"> Topshop, River Island, New Look and Primark have some great options in at the moment, here are my top picks </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">2: Figure out a 5 min beauty routine because gone are the days of spending hours in front of the mirror. While I am normally quite frugal with my purchases, make up and skincare is one place you just can't scrimp on and Clinique is my go to brand. </span></div>

Finally finish with High Impact Extreme Volume Mascara which works wonders for opening up tired eyes. </span></div>

<br />
It's been crazy recently, as I have been trying to wean my darling baby in preparation for my impending return to work and it has been a full time job and a mission impossible but this week with just 12 days to go she caved, she finally gave in and took the bottle. Now I just need to stop the 2am and 5am feed; #joysofmotherhood!<br />
We have however had lots of success with taking solids thanks to the wonderful books and paraphalalia of Annabel Karmel. Unlike with Poppy, Ida loves her fruit and veg, so the battle is won for now at least. Amongst all this a highlight for me was buying a new hand blender (which in itself is a signal that I must go back to work) and it's literally the most amazing piece of technology I have ever used but I think my family may be getting a little bored of the homemade guacamole and no one wants to try my avocado and banana purée but it really is A - MAZ - ING, trust me?!?<br />
<br />
I have also organised my paperwork and utilised the shredder since I had every single bank statement I had ever received (14 years worth) . Finished the nursery, got a new sofa, curtains and wall art so while it has been quite a boring few months in terms of blogging, it's been very productive in terms of real life.<br />
<br />
In other news we had the blow of "grumpy" dad being made redundant, just in time for Xmas, YaY!!! The silver lining is that he is going to take a few months to be a house husband which is good because not only is he a better cook than moi but he also enjoys the laundry which is in turn my Kryptonite! Now if I can only convince him that it is essential to buff the dining table with French polish every other day and religiously hoover the ceiling and walls and curtains as well as the floors ( my odd ocd) then I am golden.<br />
<br />
So with 12 days left before I return to the "adult" working world there are just a few things left to do; dye hair ( still not grey, yay) plan the perfect outfit for day 1 in the office and drop 2 stone since my daily habit of tea and cake has prevented my miraculous celeb body bounce back. Oh and write a few blogs but the good news is Xmas is all wrapped up, literally.<br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For me the beauty of <em><strong><span style="color: black;">sequins</span></strong></em> is that they never really date and because the key is not to over accessorise and to couple with plain block colours they are actually very easy to wear whilst having maximum style impact. </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Knowing how to dress is a nightmare when your body is constantly changing and you cant help but feel a little worn out. Here are my top 3 tips to help you ensure you maintain your style mojo and more importantly your confidence; </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #45818e; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong>1: Go bigger</strong></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">While many high street retailers now offer maternity ranges these can still be quite cutesy and frumpy and who really wants to wear a baby on board t shirt? Certainly not me! Throughout my pregnancy I just bought bigger sizes of dresses I liked so that I still felt like I was on top of the latest looks and trends.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Tea dresses were great for the earlier stages of my pregnancy when I was keeping my bump under wraps at work and the shape also helped to flatter an ever increasing cleavage. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Shapes like this are great because they can be dressed down with leggings for a casual look or worn with blazers for the office.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If like me you are a heels junkie then the thought of this may make you dizzy but the reality is your feet will swell and at a certain point it's just not safe or practical to keep on wearing them. However rather than go cold turkey, why not try phasing your heels out by gradually decreasing the height. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You may find that you start to get bored of wearing the same few outfits in your final weeks of pregnancy but a good collection of the right accessories will help to add variety and edge to your outfits. So pile the rings and bangles high, layer the necklaces, add a scarf and invest in some statement bags. The good thing about most accessories is that they fit no matter what size you are so are perfect for your pre, during and post pregnancy body.</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">When you have a baby it's easy to fall into an <span style="color: black;">'<em><strong>easy</strong></em>' </span>hairstyle i.e. scrapped back and unstyled. Therefore while a fringe might sound like more hassle than its worth here are 3 reasons why its actually a must have for any young mum;</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: #45818e;">#1</span></strong> It will hide a multitude of sins like those eyebrows you haven't got round to plucking or those frown lines that grow deeper with every sleepless night and new mum worries.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: #45818e;">#2</span></strong> Fringes have a strange ability of making you look younger and fresher which again is a bonus as you battle the draining nights and the effects they have on your appearance.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: #45818e;">#3</span></strong> The scrap back pony tail is inevitable in those first few weeks. Having a fringe will make it look a little less Croydon face lift and a little more sophisticated.</span></div>
<span style="font-size: x-small;"></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But don't take it from me, take it from these yummy mummy's who show the many looks that can be achieved;</span></div>

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><strong><span style="color: #45818e;">'3 thats the magic number'</span></strong> <span style="color: black;">as De La Soul once rapped, the number of children a psychic once told me I would have (2 down 1 to go) and my lucky number. Therefore it only seems fitting that my blog will focus on the power of 3, be it my top 3 buys or top 3 tips on any given subject.</span></span></div>

<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So lets start with my <strong>Top 3 Hot Mamas</strong>. As a mother its great to have role models who are not just great mothers but also business women and fashion icons, having a baby does not mean the end of you, in fact it improves you. Here are 3 yummy mummys who went from strength to strength whilst growing their broods:</span></div>
</div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<img alt="" class="rg_hi uh_hi" data-height="194" data-width="259" height="194" id="rg_hi" src="https://encrypted-tbn1.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTzJ334L73oWXHVwnq4R5AkZt28kCgKRDFRUUO-tNxP8dF8GQrB" style="height: 194px; width: 259px;" width="259" /><span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> <strong><span style="color: #45818e;">#3</span></strong> Nicole Richie </span></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Apparently motherhood saved her from herself and made her a better person and its clear for us all to see. </span></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This girl has gone from that reality star wild child who famously flashed her boobs on the runway to an immaculatley groomed mama with her own successful fashion line named after her first born, all together now awww. A true example of womanhood bought about by motherhood, tell it to your single friends.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<br /></div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: black;"><img alt="" class="rg_hi uh_hi" data-height="275" data-width="183" height="275" id="rg_hi" src="https://encrypted-tbn2.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTpOS4EKOEX2oZUWAXp0odwJaAAEDDFwAGs2uYTKU_5lPSoUmO3gA" style="height: 275px; width: 183px;" width="183" /> <strong><span style="color: #45818e;">#2</span></strong> Kourtney Kardashian</span> </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">First of all this woman literally delivered her own son (if you havent seen it Google KUWTK season 4, episode 11. its A MAZ ING!!!) and ever since she has been amazingly dedicated and took to motherhood with ease and confidence whilst all the time maintaining her efortless style, not to mention running stores in New York, Miami and Cali. </span><br />
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Most importantly she seemingly reamains cool, calm and collected at all times; a must for any new mum because if you dont have patience you are done for.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><img alt="" class="rg_hi uh_hi" data-height="272" data-width="185" height="200" id="rg_hi" src="https://encrypted-tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ5wHx8Pzo1AEkr5ULwpDWYrn_cjI9CdXAe7iqhtirCGSuTGOQaVA" style="height: 272px; width: 185px;" width="136" /> <span style="color: #45818e;"><strong>#1</strong></span> Victoria Beckham (of course)</span></div>
</div>
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana;">From Spice Girl to Fashion Mogul this woman has remained a mummy first and foremost, producing 4 of the cutest, happiest kids you have ever seen in Celebsville. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana;">As well as being a supermum and despite her famous pout she is reportardadly one of the funniest and most down to earth women you will ever meet, and lets face it you dont get where she is from being a b***h you get it through hard work and sheer dedication, lest we forget talent and respect; you dont get to NYFW on a name. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">
<span style="color: black; font-family: Verdana;">Best of all she does it in sky high heels and sprayed on clothing, without breaking a sweat! Oh and her husband is some hot footballer apparently?!?! She really is proving that you can have it all and thats why she is my #1 Hot Mama and my hero.</span><br />
