The stepping stone to the perfect outfit is the right underwear. With the start of the school year rapidly approaching, it is time to purge your drawers of anything ill-fitting, stained or tattered.

In fact, there are lots of somethings, which means you can stock up and hold off on laundering for a little bit longer.

Voted the most life-changing spa in the world by Tatler magazine, the world’s wealthiest and most glamorous women (Monaco’s Princess Caroline, Elle Macpherson, Uma Thurman) are lining up for the hotel’s intense “wellness” regiment.

Sample day? Apple puree for breakfast, electric shock therapy at lunch and laxatives for dinner. Read More »
