1) Before you go make sure you’re well groomed: with minimum effort you can ensure your fingers and toes are presentable which will instantly give you style points!

2) Take a trip to your hairdresser the day before: a nice cut, fresh style or indeed just a little extra curation will go a long way to making sure you step into the spa a seasoned beauty queen.

3) Put yourself on a detox / healthy eating plan 5 days before you arrive. OK, it’s been said a million times over but drink more water and flush out a few toxins before the massage and pummelling begins.

4) Select the right bag to take with you. Don’t ram all your worldly goods into your regular “one size fits all” super tote. No no. A stylish carry companion will make you feel like a total glamour queen on entry so pick well.

5) Invest in some glamourous bikinis, bathing suits and beautiful kaftans or coverups for floating around princess-like.

At Fox & Rose we’ve road tested the best (we know, it’s a hard job but someone has to do it). Go for a shape enhancing halterneck bathing suit and perhaps a fashion forward number. We’d also recommend an eye catching bikini or two for the hours you will spend among warm bubbles. When the bubbles become too much and you exit for a glass of wine (or juice, but if you’ve detoxed as per our previous advice then you’ve already done that bit…see how it works? ;-D) robe yourself in a stunning floor length maxi dress or a beautiful kaftan. We adore all the coverups by Pistol Panties this season, from their midi designer kaftans to floor length kaftans. Stunning for a spa break and perfect to take on holiday all year round. A sound investment piece we think!

When we got hold of the Twitter picture (right) we were enamoured!

It’s refreshing and eyeopening to watch how women in the ’60s went through the difficulties of being in a man’s world; we think the female characters are amazing.

However it is of course the styling we’re looking at. In fact we’ve heard many a rumour that Ms Hendricks will be the next Wonder Woman. Although it’s just a rumour and she has in fact denied it, we’d place bets on the trends that would ensure should such a collaboration take off.

There is no denying that the phenomenal success of both the actress herself and the character of Joan Holloway has sparked the obligatory debates (still raging) regarding women and size in Hollywood. In a recent interview, it was said “Christina Hendricks hasn’t just got breasts. She’s got measurements.

In fact, at a size 14 she is way out in terms of what Hollywood stylists would normally work with when putting an outfit together. If you love her styling as much as we do, then there are a few tips and tricks you can use to help you achieve that voluptuous silhouette and hour glass curves.

Your choice of underpinning is essential – opt for a plunge push up or contour bra like Stella McCartney’s new Cherie Sneezing collection. Or alternatively the Black Diamond Contour Bra by Pleasure State Couture.

Elle Macpherson Obsidian also has a wonderful contour bra as part of it’s ‘Maria’ range…all are pictured below.

We’re looking forward to another enticing series. That is of course if Christina is not lured off the cast in favour of a role as Wonder Woman.
