I do! ...I don't

I'm sure you all remember mama's golden rules when you were growing up, but here are the six pure 24-carat golden rules of life which must be adhered to at all costs.

The three golden DON'TS of a fashionable life:

1. Socks with sandals

No one cares if you have overactive sweat glands, socks with sandals is a total no go.

Please don't try and make those Louboutins last for as long as possible by covering your tootsies in white tennis socks.

Instead, do the world a favour and bring along a pair of flip flops for the way home.

2. Mom jeans

We are fully aware that high waist jeans are making a comeback, however there is an important difference between today's hip new trend and that nightmare harking back from the 70's.

Mom jeans are defined as the light blue monsters which crawl all the way up your legs past your waist and end up somewhere directly underneath your bust.

Instead of looking sleek and cute, your butt now looks inches long. Avoid.

3. Say no to crack

And we don't just mean the drug.

Low slung jeans are the height of sexy, especially if you have the hip bones to pull them off.

However, no one needs a free NC17 show every time you bend down to pick something up.

A broad belt will do just the trick to keep your cheeks in check.

The three golden DO'S:

1. Dress for your body shape

Some people have curves, others have flat stomachs and some people just have it all (we hate you).

Whatever your body shape make sure you look your most gorgeous by ensuring you don't wear something you have to squeeze into / spill out of / makes you look like a clothes hanger.

2. Wear the right shoes

The right pair of heels can flatten your stomach in an instant whilst a cute pair of flats complements any lean frame.

This summer's latest trend of gladiator shoes is also a great way to flatter one's shape and works great with any summer outfit

3. Work that smile

This may not sound like the greatest fashion tip of all times but all the Gucci and Prada in the world can't do for you what a dazzling set of pearly whites can.

Even the simplest outfit can go from ew to woah if it's worn with a dazzling smile.
