“Shopping online has never been easier and Cosmopolitan has made it even more accessible,” said Lisa Snowdon. “With increased time pressures combined with the sheer volume of fashion websites that cater for every shape and size, women can transform their wardrobe at the click of a mouse.”

I managed to have catch up with the Cosmo crew who were lovely. I then headed off home to prepare for the ‘A La Mode’ event the following day :)
