Ideal World – the shopping channel have invited me to be a regular presenter on one of their fashion shows! If you remember I along with my gorgeous stylist friend Ann Skidmore, did two ‘live’ shows last year to promote our What Not to Wear Weekends……. they loved us!

After meetings and a final screen test we’ve both been offered some regular work with the TV company. It seems that they really want to push their clothing ranges so it looks like there maybe several different shows.

Three of the Colour Me Beautiful publications are now available in Russian. I had the privilege of running the very first training course for new consultants in Moscow. What a fabulous city! I stayed at The Crowne Plaza Hotel…. actually, I had a suite! The M.D. and all the staff at cmb in Moscow really looked after me.

Here we are outside H&M in one of the Moscow shopping centres. This picture was taken on the afternoon of the final day of training just before we went out for dinner!

An office suite in the World Trade Centre in Moscow was the venue for my colour & make-up training. Eight new cmb consultants launched their careers on 22nd July. Photo (left) Anna and me, Senia and yours truly (centre), Svetlana, the marketing Director for cmb Russia (right)

I appeared on LIVE TV whilst in Kiev; the video of the morning breakfast interview is now on YouTube. If you click on the link below you can view it. If any of you speak Ukraine or Russian you’ll be able to understand it from the start. For those of you (like me) who can’t even atempt a grasp of the language you’ll need to wait whilst I start speaking; then you’ll be able to listen to my responses to the questions asked by the interviewer.

Hi Cliff,  I want to say I received my order of Colour Me Slimmer today and I just wanted to say wow! This is the best book Colour Me Beautiful has done to date. It has so much detail in it and it really helps us to understand our colouring as well as how to dress to make you look slimmer. I love all of the pictures. The makeup is fantastic as well as it is the real thing and not a blob of colouron the page that doesn’t seem to translate well when choosing makeup.

Thankyou thankyou thankyou.  I look forward to sitting down and reading it from cover to cover.

Regards, Christine H

One week after my renovation, revelation, elucidation – however you describe it, I have got my colors and I feel great. Thanks so very much for a wonderful day. The experience really helped me transition from my thirties very easily! Your business is such a warm, inviting, and professional place to be (I am sure you all did not fake that for me!), I knew I was in the right place from start to finish. I hope that my ideas for ways for you to get to the States do not fall by the wayside, as that can happen…. but be sure that if something workable occurs to me, I will put it into action right away. In the meantime, maybe you should just get yourself over here just for a vacation. There is a lot to do! Best wishes from our side of the pond, and a million thanks again.

Suzanne Bober who lives in Short Hills, New Jersey, USA visited my premises recently for a consultation. Her comments (above) say it all!

Making people look and feel their best is what it’s all about! It was an absolute pleasure spending the week with these 5 lovely ladies! We all look happy because we all lead ‘colourful’ lives. Could you imagine a world with no colour in it….. doesn’t bear thinking about, does it?
