At Home With...

Closing Series Two in a fit of hysterical giggles! Our good friends; Skincare expert Caroline Hirons and Fashion Model and Writer Ruth Crilly, join us for our final episode of the series.  We got thoroughly distracted attempting to discuss running an online business, navigating motherhood with a career and interiors. Instead we learn about the brutal challenge of raising daughters, swap ghost stories, admit to fails when trying to switch off and promise to stop caring what others think, all whilst sitting together in Ruth’s stunning Somerset home!  We advise you listen somewhere you can laugh loudly and away from the ears of small children! You can listen along, and see photos of the items we talk about in this episode, on Acast. Follow: @lilypebbles @theannaedit @modelrecommend @carolinehirons

The one woman to listen to if you want to rise above the haters and change the world!  Speaking with incredible honesty from her West London flat, Callie explains how the nickname ‘Calorie’ at school lead to years of self loathing and extreme weight loss measures, including an addiction to laxative teas which resulted in her appendix being removed.  Having now featured in Vogue and been the very first plus sized columnist for Marie Claire, Callie’s new attitude of acceptance has seen her confidence soar and she is now happier than ever! Get your tissues and self love ready, you’re gonna be gripped! You can listen along, and see photos of the items we talk about in this episode, on Acast. Find us on the app, or at  .

The man that had us crying with laughter! Having studied Fashion Marketing at University, Jules wasn’t convinced it was the industry for him, when a chance meeting with the facialist of Kate Moss lead to a life changing idea… she suggested his personality would make a great spray tanner! Juggling tanning around his 9-5 desk job, one client suggested him for ‘The X Factor’ which then lead to three years at ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ and he is now the founder of his own brand ‘Isle Of Paradise’.  Catching up in his West London flat, surrounded by crystals and mood boards, we learnt about his secret dream to host a classical radio show, raided his personal beauty cupboard and discovered why an appearance on Radio One caused him to change his name.  Check out Jules' podcast, Wobble, here: .

When we grow up we want to be Clemmie Hooper! A working midwife at King’s College Hospital, Clemmie is mother to four beautiful daughters and recently took the plunge to move the whole family from South London to the Seaside town of Ramsgate! Starting her blog ‘Gas & Air’ whilst on maternity leave, Clemmie has developed a fiercely loyal following thanks to her honesty, empathy and experience. Married to Simon (@father_of_daughters) we caught up with Clemmie in her gorgeous home (that was once a doctors surgery) and are all ears as we talk pregnancy, childbirth, maintaining a career and young family all whilst living life online. ‘Inspirational’ doesn’t even begin to cover it….

Girl Crush alert! We don’t even want to admit to how many hours we’ve lost looking through Lucy Williams Instagram…. She is the definition of ‘effortlessly cool’. Obsessed with magazines whilst as University, Lucy worked on several titles before realizing she wanted the creative freedom of her own blog and so eight years ago ‘Fashion Me Now’ was born.  Often travelling across the globe, we caught up with Lucy in her West London flat. With her gorgeous dog Finn at her feet, Lucy discussed everything from body image to building a brand and she even let us raid through her wardrobe….
