The smart way to dress up !
Finding exactly the right dress for a special occasion can eat up time and money : all that trawling around dress shops and online sites for an outfit you might wear only once or twice .
That ’ s why more and more smart women are opting to hire rather than buy their special occasion wear , from the Island ’ s biggest dress hire collection , at Posh Frocks in Sandown . It ’ s an Aladdin ’ s cave containing around 2,000 dresses – everything from ball gowns , prom dresses and bridesmaids outfits to cruise wear and the classic ‘ little black dress ’. Launched just two years ago
by Christine Stringer , the business has gone from strength to strength and this year for the first time it ’ s offering outfits for mothers of the bride . There ’ s also a big collection of accessories including jewellery , bags and hats , to give the finishing touch to an outfit . With dresses in all sizes from a petite size 6 up to an extra large 30 , Christine says there ’ s something to suit all ages and all tastes , and an outfit for any formal occasion .

Why have a massage ?
We ’ ve all heard the stories about the A list who refuse to travel without their personal masseuse but why exactly ?
Massage can be for relaxation , making you feel soothed and pampered , which typically focuses on the whole body , or it can be a form of treatment that encourages better overall health , focussing on improving circulation , easing muscle spasms , reducing pain and aiding recovery from injury .

She has been part of the team for over 3 years and offers Swedish , remedial , by Rebecca Taylor DC FMCA MRCC McTimoney Chiropractor
Indian head and deep tissue massage . No two treatments are ever the same and she prides herself on always treating each patient as an individual , listening to their feedback , tailoring her pressure and technique accordingly and keeping their particular needs in mind . Prior to the first treatment patients are asked to complete a health questionnaire and , if appropriate , an analysis of posture and range of movement is undertaken . Advice may be given on diet and hydration levels , along with simple exercises to do at home .
