Your Little Secret
Secret's Silky line

It's what's on the inside that counts. And in this case, it's a pair of thigh-highs from Secret's Silky line. Worn under a business suit or paired with an elegant dress, these luxurious, silky sheers are the perfect way to add a hint of sexiness to an outfit without feeling like you're on full display. The feminine lace leg band is a seductive alternative for those who find waist bands on traditional pantyhose too constricting.


Secret's Silky line also features knee highs, 20-denier pantyhose with light and medium tummy control as well as a 20-denier sheer that features a feminine lace high-cut panty. The line retails for $5.95 to $9.50 and is available at major department stores nation-wide or visit the new online store at www.secretlegwear.com.

Sheer Beauty
Secret Au Naturel

Sheers might be an everyday wardrobe staple but that doesn’t mean they should be ranked as dull. From curve-conscious fashions to office-friendly attire, Secret’s extensive collections of sheers add a dash of polished femininity to any look.

Hours at the gym have given you glamorous gams, but baring them at the office is certainly risky business. Donning a pair of Secret's Au Naturel sheers is the perfect compromise. The ultra-sheer 10-denier pantyhose emphasizes a beautiful leg while evening out skin tone and hiding minor imperfections.

Featuring a light control panty, these sheers are perfectly suited to everything from pencil skirts to thigh-grazing minis. Secret's Au Naturel line also features thigh-highs and knee-highs as well as 10 and 15 denier options.

The line retails from $6.75 to $9.95 and is available at major department stores nation-wide or visit the new online store at www.secretlegwear.com.

YUMMY MUMMY CLUB GIVES
MUMMIES A COMMUNITY TO
CELEBRATE AND REDEFINE YUMMINESS

Not sure if you're a Yummy Mummy?

Yummy Mummies come in different colours, shapes, sizes and ages. They have differing opinions, passions, dreams and lifestyles. But the one thing that they have in common is the essence of yumminess. They are strong, confident, sexy, and empowered women. They are more than somebody’s mother, they are women that include but aren’t exclusive to their children. Having kids doesn't mean giving up on passions and dreams. It’s just a little more…challenging getting there.


The Yummy Mummy Club celebrates this diversity and beauty of women who are taking a stand and helping to redefine what being yummy is all about. It's a place where you can celebrate and commiserate the rollercoaster ride of modern mummydom, win great prizes, find books to stimulate your brain and read eclectic and cheeky articles written for and by other yummy mummies...because mummy needs to play too.

Yummy is a state of mind. A true Yummy Mummy struggles to find the impossible balance between the single sexpot she used to be, the woman she's become, the professional she works hard to be, the wife she aspires to be and the mother she has to be. Basically, she's confused and exhausted. Forget CEO. THIS is the toughest job in the world. Why didn't anyone warn us? Can you relate?

If you have...
a) kids
b) guilt
c) no time for yourself
d) all of the above
... then, you're in!

Sign up for cool contests, groovy giveaways, playful surveys, and sexy tips to survive the multi-tasking life of a Yummy Mummy. No strings attached! Visit www.yummymummyclub.ca to join now! Or follow the Yummy Mummy Club on Twitter!

DISCOVER THE BEAUTY OF RARE AND

UNUSUAL CACTI & SUCCULENTS
AT SHERWAY GARDENS – JUNE 26 & 27

Did you know that all cacti and succulents flower? Visit Sherway Gardens for the annual Ontario Cactus & Succulent Society (OCSS) Show on Saturday, June 26 (9:30am – 6pm) and Sunday, June 27 (11am – 6pm) in Sherway Square for a spectacular array of colourful blooms.

The Ontario Cactus and Succulent Show at Sherway Gardens is one of the biggest shows of its kind in Canada. Hundreds of rare, unusual and expertly grown plants will be on display at this judged exhibit. There will be a large variety of plants on display at Sherway Gardens and experts will be on hand to share their cultivation secrets!

ADD A NEW DIMENSION TO YOUR GARDEN WITH CACTI AND SUCCULENTS:
Exploring the hidden treasures of cacti and succulents can turn a barren landscape into an unusual garden, a dull window into a showcase of foliage and flowers, or a boring container garden into a vibrant focal point with added colour and pizzaz.

Cactus Gardens: A cactus garden can liven up a yard and give a home an original look. The best place to plant a cactus garden is on a hill, as it allows the garden to drain easily. If your property is flat, you can create a cactus garden, it will just involve more digging. Decide the size and shape of the garden and mark the border on the ground before beginning to make digging easier.

When choosing cacti for the garden, be sure to choose plants that will thrive in the various outdoor conditions. Plant the cacti, pot and all, into the ground to ensure easy removal for transporting the plants inside during the winter.

Wall Water Fountains: Cacti and succulents can be used as striking foliage to accompany a wall water fountain or awning.

Miniature Indoor Desert Scenes: For small apartments or homes with limited space; creating a miniature desert scene indoors is easy with decorative dish gardens of cacti and succulents. These miniature landscapes offer great interest, only take a few hours to make and once established, grows almost unattended.

Cacti and succulents are ideal for dish gardens as they are small and grow slowly.
