Pilates, FitFlops and low GI are the staples of the “are you really 40?” generation

Now forty-something looks different. None of the old rules seem to apply according the attached magazine article:- 40 Has A New Face
Forty something mothers borrow their teenage daughters skinny jeans, chunky ankle boots and jackets – they are trim enough after all the pilates and FitFlops.
Botox and wrinkle fillers skin peels and SmartLipo are becoming the norm, to the extent that many women in their 40′s appear peculiarly ageless. ”Forty is just a little step” says Dr Nick Lowe, consultant dermatologist at the Cranley Clinic in London.
Better health and healthy habits, Pilates, FitFlops and Low GI are all contributing factors

The FitFlop MANYANO™project with Wola Nani in Cape Town
Thank you to everyone who bought a pair of FitFlop
MANYANO™ sandals, hand-beaded by the Wola Nani
co-operative in Cape Town. We hope you’re
enjoying wearing them – here’s where your money is going:
– Beading for the Manyano sandal gave HIV-affected women
full-time employment for two months – a practical way for
them to help themselves.
– In addition 100% of our profits from sales of the Manyano
went back to the cooperative to fund an Orphan and Vulnerable
Children’s Project which gives health and nutrition education,
homework assistance and meals to children orphaned after
losing their parents to HIV/AIDS or who are infected in townships.
Hand-beaded by the women of the Wola Nani cooperative in Cape Town, the MANYANO sandal is crafted in luxurious natural leather and has our famous Microwobbleboard™ midsole built in. FitFlop donated 100% of the net profit from the sales of each pair of MANYANO sandals to the Wola Nani, a non-profit organisation dedicated to helping communities hit hardest by HIV.
