She said she was worried she’d lose her shape after honing her already impressive physique on Strictly Come Dancing.

But judging by her latest beauty campaign, Abbey Clancy has nothing to worry about.

The model and Strictly star shows off her incredible figure as the new face – and body – of Scholl and Veet.

No wonder she's proud of them! Abbey Clancy reveals that her legs are her best asset as she showcases them in her new Scholl and Veet campaign

Speaking about her new campaign, which sees her showing off her famous assets to perfection in a 1950s style swimwear shoot, Abbey said: ‘I’m excited to be
fronting this campaign for Scholl and Veet. I’ve always thought my legs
were my best asset and then of course as a model and enthusiastic dancer
my feet work very hard for me!

‘I feel most confident when I’ve carried
out my beauty basics such as waxing and foot care. It’s not just about
how great your feet and legs look, but how you feel when they are
prepped and ready to bare as soon as the sun comes out. 

‘Any mum with a full-time job knows that
fitting in time to do even the simple things like going to the gym and
shops can be a struggle, never mind having the time to visit a salon.
That’s why products that are quick and easy to use at home are a God-send.

‘With such a busy lifestyle and a little
girl to run around after I barely have time to visit a salon for beauty
treatments, so easy-to-use products such as Scholl Express Pedi and
Veet EasyWax help me get long-lasting professional results from home.

‘It’s no wonder women keep their legs and
feet covered up when they feel unprepared to bare their skin, I know I
tend to hide in a pair of skinny jeans and ballet pumps when I’ve
neglected my legs and feet.

‘There’s no need to hide away your legs and feet – it’s time to show them
off!’

A spokesperson for the brands said: ‘We are delighted Abbey is our brand ambassador. As a model, TV presenter and one of the UK’s most photographed women, Abbey always looks impeccable.

‘Abby is also down to earth and knows home grooming can produce salon-quality results with no fuss. She is aspirational yet women can relate to her. We hope that together we can encourage more women to feel confident and dare to bare this summer!’

Speaking about her love of summer, Abbey, who has become something of a fashion icon, said: ‘I love the beach and spend a lot of time abroad when I get the chance to take time off from work. I love the summer not just for the long days and warm weather but also the fashion. Summer dresses and little shorts are my summer wardrobe-musts .’

Since leaving Strictly, Abbey has been maintaining a rigorous work-out regime and was spotted last week throwing herself into
an energetic martial arts session in Liverpool with her sister Elle last week.

Emerging
from the studio looking her usual flawless self, the 28-year-old cut a
trim image and showcased her legs as she garnered tips from the
muscle-bound instructor.

Abbey has previously admitted to being worried the intense routines on Strictly made her too muscly and masculine.

Summer style: Abbey says she loves the summer not just for the long days and warm weather but also the fashion, citing summer dresses and little shorts as her go-to seasonal styles

She told the Huffington Post ahead of the BBC show’s final: ‘I’ve got a six-pack and no boobs, I’m turning into a boy.

‘I’ve definitely toned up, I’m obviously not used to doing this much intense exercise. But it feels good, I feel healthy.’

Keeping up the fitness drive, Abbey’s latest campaign shots, as well as her ones for Ultimo, show she should have no cause for concern over her figure.

The model and TV presenter, who is married to footballer Peter Crouch, has taken over as the new face of the lingerie brand from Michael Bublé’s wife Luisana Lopilato.

Great legs…..and great feet. Why are feet so despised? They are very sexy with a good pedicure and strappy shoes….better still, a flowing dress and bare feet is very sensual and sexy….and who doesn’t love a foot rub? With you all the way sexy twinkle toed Abbey……

Great legs – but a rather mean hard face that says she’s her own biggest fan.

Jill Conley helps launch lingerie for cancer survivors – The Courier

Jill Conley and Dana Donofree have a common mission — to restore confidence to other young breast cancer survivors like themselves, and remind every woman that she is beautiful.

On Saturday, they met in Philadelphia to help launch Donofree’s new company, Ana Ono Intimates, which sells lingerie for women who have undergone cancer treatment.

The “soft launch” party attracted more than 150 people, mostly patients, survivors and their families and friends. Donofree premiered a video (see above) starring Conley, whose journey with incurable breast and bone cancer I am chronicling for The Courier-Journal.

The YouTube video which shows a breast cancer patient growing ever-more-frustrated with her selection of bras and finally breaking a bureau drawer on her bedroom floor. But when she sees other survivors wearing Donofree’s bras, she realizes she is not alone.

“She’s defining her new normal. She’s in search of women who have gone through what she’s gone through,” Donofree said of the video, adding that “Jill was stunning and amazing as usual,” in the video and in person at the event.

The party also featured a photo installation spotlighting breast cancer survivors (including Conley) and a raffle of beauty-centered items and services such as manicures and baskets of beauty products. The raffle raised about $2,000 for Conley’s charity, Jill’s Wish, which helps defray expenses for families facing cancer.

Donofree also plans to contribute 10 percent of each sale to the charity. Ana Ono’s online shopping site features bras fitting “women of all shapes, sizes, and circumstances: from lumpectomy to mastectomy, unilateral to bilateral, flap surgery to implant reconstruction.”

Donofree said she first saw Conley during one of her appearances on the Today Show, and wrote her a letter. When they talked, they realized how much they had in common and decided to join forces.

“We’re so focused on restoring confidence for women who have gone through this,” Donofree said.
