DONNA IDA: Which are your favourite jeans from our shoot and why?
Helen: It would have to be the Jess jean. They remind me of the way jeans used to fit me as they hug the bum in all the right places. I love the wash, the length, the rise…Everything!
I am also more than thrilled for Fran as I have met up with her and we both started out on the same outfit sharing website, many moons ago.

DONNA IDA: Who are your favourite influencers to follow on Instagram for inspiration?
Helen: They’re mainly a lot of French accounts, but here it is definitely Lucy Williams. Even though she is a million miles away from me, size and age wise, she just oozes cool and nonchalance. She also costs me a bloody fortune, Acne sandals, anyone?
