Hair and Make-up
Anna Durston using Paul Mitchell hair care and Studio 10 make up.
Multi-colour couture dress worn for the first Autism Hero awards.
“This dress people thought cost a fortune! I wore it to our first Autism Hero Awards Ball in London. It will be our third year holding the event this year and it will be at the Raddison Blu hotel on Saturday the 13th of October.”
“We have had so much support over this last year.
The actress Kacey Ainsworth, glamour model Danielle Lloyd and Heather Small from M.People were among those supporting the ball.”
“The Dress was from eBay and cost £100.
I am very lucky with eBay. I am size 8-10 and I have never had to send anything back.
When it arrived, the bottom half was a bit see through, so my mum, Maria, who is a seamstress, sewed in a lining and shortened the sleeves. She also added the sparkles. I also wore this dress whilst being presented with a humanitarian award.”
Strictly Charleston dress.
Anna bought this to go on the farewell tour with her partner and coach from the People’s Strictly, Robin Windsor. The show starts on October the 18th at Potters Bar.
“The dress was £40 from Debenhams.
The shoes £25.00 from New Look.”
“I just love dancing. I get very little time to myself and escaping to a dance class once a week is my relaxation time, from tap to Zumba. Appearing on The People’s Strictly was a dream come true and I just loved it.”
