Fit, Fashion. . . . Flab-u-less!

Welcome to the weekend my Savvy Savers and what weird weather we are having. I realise that being British brings with it a rather unhealthy obsession for weather based conversations but i am embracing it and stating 'WTF!' - there is a typhoon out there, my only hope of making it out to do the sopping today is in a canoe and darn it i sold it in my last yard sale!
Anyway that aside, something to put the sunshine back into Saturday a corking combo of fitness and fashion with the icing on the fat free cake being a saving :) Let me break it down (in a completely British and upstanding manner of course!) I have ben doing a bit of research into these trainers that 'burn calories while you walk' and 'tone your butt' - love the Yanks, sell, sell, sell and a gusto for all gimmickery. You too may have seen the advert in which Km Kardashian sashays around in her Sketchers which have this amazing technology for an imbalanced sole that makes your core muscles work harder when you wear them. They sound good, very good in fact, so i though i would give them a try - but then alas i find that £120 is not just expensive, but down right ruddy ridiculous! For that i could join a gym and have some new stilettos for a night on the tiles - so Kim, you can take your Sketchers and shove them . . . well up you Kardashian o be honest! And so i have found some alternatives, and not just alternative in price but in look. These are black, sequined flip flops with the same technology in the sole for toned tushes and cost a mere £20 and are brought to you by the Adonis of the bargain world - Avon (yes not just for pretty faces ey?!) And so i have been wearing mine for 2 weeks for tasks such as doing the food shopping, walking to work, round the house etc and not only have i received comments on how good they look, i have a noticeable reduction in he orange peel of butt clinging doom (cellulite - say it quietly and it doesn't exist la la la can't hear it!)

And what is more - drum roll please . . . . drum roll . . . .oh sorry no drum roll, the drummer has been swept away in the ensuing downpour, his only hope being a fallen tree to stem his flow . . never mind, this needs no fanfare it stands alone in a glory all of it's own making - they are going to be just £15 next month!!!!! Yes i know - A-MAZ-ING. Should anyone like to purchase any and join me in the fit and fashionable flab-u-less adventure please email me at flisshilton@hotmail.com and i shall grant thine wish Fairy Godmother style. Please have a look at them on
