The latest cure for cellulite? Organic knickers

2 Comments
What grown woman doesn't have cellulite? If you're one of the five per cent of women who doesn't suffer with orange-peel bumpy skin think yourself extremely lucky.

For the rest of us, the search for a miracle cure continues – and there's no shortage of products claiming to help us.

The latest comes from India in the shape of organic underwear, which is said to be 'infused with extracts from the Indian neem tree and woven with threads of silver.' Hmm.

Advantage Organic, who are based in New Delhi, says its knickers will smooth the wearer's skin as well as protecting them against infection.

Rajiv Rai Sachdev, owner of Advantage Organic, said: "These garments are very healthy and very practical. They will prevent wrinkling and clear all infections."

Not convinced? Don't worry, there are plenty more products aimed at curing cellulite to try.

What about the Cellu-smooth device which uses ultrasound waves to break-up fatty deposits or heated pants containing crystals that emit infra-red rays to stimulate blood flow?

Or perhaps we should just give up and accept that there is no cure for cellulite. Never!

Clever cat owners are top dogs for brains

Leave a Comment
Woman with catThe long-standing argument between cat and dog lovers could be further fuelled by a new scientific study.

According to researchers at Bristol University, cat owners tend to be cleverer than their dog-loving rivals.

Using census data, information on household sizes and a phone survey, cat expert Dr Jane Murray reached the conclusion that the nation's university graduates favour the feline company.

In fact, those with degrees were 36 per cent more likely to own a cat than others, though this could be down to longer working hours leaving less time for a long walk in the country.

Dr Murray's research comes in the wake of a new attempt to estimate the number of dogs and cats lounging in Britain's living rooms.

Dannii Minogue to follow in Twiggy's footsteps as new face of M&S

Leave a Comment
This year is turning out to be a good one for Dannii Minogue.

The Australian pop singer and X Factor judge, who is expecting her first baby in July, has been chosen as one of the new faces of Marks & Spencer.

Joining Dannii will be singer-songwriter V V Brown, famous for her modern take on vintage style, Lisa Snowdon, the co-host of Capital Radio's breakfast show and presenter of Britain's Next Top model; and Brazilian Victoria's Secret model, Ana Beatriz Barros.

Dannii is currently in South Africa filming the new campaign, which launches in March. Posting on her Twitter feed, she said today: "I'm so excited to be a Marks & Spencer girl."

The new girls will be following in the footsteps of Twiggy, 60, who became the face of M&S in 2005 - and is credited with helping to turn the store's fortunes around.

It doesn't end there. Dannii is also set to publish her memoirs later this year and is said to be signing a £200,000 deal to appear in a six-part ITV reality TV show, as well as launching a new fashion range with designer Tabitha Somerset Webb.

Saudi girl, 12, fights to divorce 80-year-old husband

6 Comments
Young Muslim woman wearing veilDivorce is never easy, but for one 12-year-old Saudi girl the battle to divorce her 80-year-old husband is about more than just a couple parting ways.

The girl, who was married to her father's cousin last year against both her and her mother's wishes, has been given legal assistance by the state-run Human Rights Commission as she takes her case to court in Buraidah, near Riyadh.

Currently there is no minimum age for marriage in Saudi Arabia and girls from poor families are often married off.

But a draft law that could prohibit child marriage is under discussion.

It is expected to suggest a minimum age of between 16 and 18, while in the interim, activists are urging the Government to ban notaries from sealing marriages involving girls under 18.

Depressed people feel 'grey', not 'blue'

    1 Comment
    Depressed young woman under a grey cloudAt this time of year, there will many of us experiencing what is commonly known as 'feeling blue'.

    A new study, though, has found that we are far more likely to be feeling various shades of grey.

    Researcher from University Hospital South Manchester and the University of Manchester asked more than 300 people, including 100 with depression, to pick a colour to describe their mood.

    The most depressed among them opted for shades of grey. The happy, healthy volunteers, however, plumped joyously for yellow when asked to put a colour to their disposition.

    As a result of the study, researchers have devised a colour chart, named The Manchester Colour Wheel, which can be used to reveal how people define their state of mind.

    Harriet Harman up for 'Rear of the Year'

    3 Comments
    Harriet HarmanShe may be known for her feminist views but we like to think even Harriet Harman may have enjoyed a little flush of pride at being nominated for the Rear of the Year award.

    The Minister for Women has emerged as an unlikely candidate for the award, despite making it clear that she would like images of Page 3 girls banned from workplaces across the country.

    But the inclusion of an MP amongst this year's nominations has come as something of a surprise, even to organisers.

    Rear of the Year organiser Tony Edwards, told The Telegraph: "These are not large numbers but a dozen nominations in one week usually indicates encouragement on a fan-based website or an organised group effort of some kind.

    "It happens, from time to time, with celebrities in the public eye whose blogs and websites sometimes promote them as potential candidates.
