Most Loving Cats 2025: These are the 16 breeds of feline that just love cuddles - including the affectionate Persian
The fact that the Sphynx doesn't have any hair means it can get a bit chilly - and its owner's body heat is just the ticket for it to warm up. That means there will always be cuddles. Plus this breed of cat just naturally loves snuggles - and play - even if it's warm enough, so expect plenty of purrs at the same time. These are seriously loving cats. Sadly, there are also issues with having no hair, with these cats predisposed to skin problems and sunburn. | Canva/Getty Images

Stacey Solomon 'kept quiet' about incredible body transformation amid Strictly Come Dancing rumours Stacey Solomon has posted her stunning body transformation to Instagram Stacey wants to be strong and healthy for her children (Image: Getty Images) TV personality and presenter Stacey Solomon, known for her show Sort Your Life Out, has shared her gorgeous body transformation on Instagram. Posting photos in a stunning black bikini, Stacey flaunted her new figure while spreading body positivity. In a lengthy caption, Stacey explained that she had "kept quiet" about her fitness routine and that she wants to be strong and healthy for her children. Stacey's impressive transformation comes as she's rumoured to be appearing on the latest series of Strictly Come Dancing, due to return this autumn. The photos were taken while the star was on holiday with her husband, fellow TV presenter Joe Swash, and their five children: Zachary, Leighton, Rex, Rose, and Belle. Stacey said: "Feeling beautiful my sister hyped me up today & made me feel really pretty so I'm posting these love you Jem. Also my 3 day blow dry made it to the pool cave for at least 3 mins #buzzing "P.S my body looks a little different to last years summer holiday. "I am actually so proud of myself because I've stuck to my weight training consistently since February. "Kept quiet and just got my head down & kept going. "I genuinely only do it because I want to be so strong. Like boss b**ch strong. "I want to forever be able to pick up my babies with ease & carry double buggies on my shoulder when necessary "I feel so much stronger this year which is so empowering & yes my body has changed but honestly I loved my body aesthetically last year as much as I do this year. "I've always been beautiful no matter what shape or size. "So I suppose what I'm trying to say is… Don't commit to fitness just for the looks. "Do it so you can wrestle your 17 year old & carry all three of your toddlers in 40 heat & you'll enjoy the journey more" Content cannot be displayed without consent Currently Stacey is also rumoured to be taking to the Strictly Come Dancing dancefloor, and she is reportedly "too busy" for Loose Women in an update regarding her future on the programme.

Goodbye Boring T-Shirts – This Is The Chic Top Fashion People Can't Stop Wearing
Damson Madder, Cassia Shrunken Rugby Ganni, Multicolour Striped Rib Tank Top COS, Clean Cut Regular T-shirt Arket, Short-Sleeve Polo Shirt Faithfull The Brand, Antibes Striped Linen Top Monki, Open-Knit Cotton Tank Top Glassworks, Green Rainbow Striped Cropped Tee Aligne, Char Boucle Striped Top Reformation, Rowan Crew Tee With Nothing Underneath, Devon Jumper ME + EM, Striped Pouf Sleeve Tee Free People, Sailor Tube Co-Ord Every August, Copenhagen Fashion Week is splashed across our social media feeds (and our saved folders) with looks that are playful yet somehow completely put-together. As always, the Scandi girls showed up this year with their signature mix of minimalism-meets-maximalism that somehow looks so effortless. Think flip-flops with frocks, granny-chic crochet bandanas, dresses worn over trousers and chaotic layering that really shouldn't work, but absolutely does. But amidst the more out there 'wait, can I actually pull that off?' looks, one trend stood out for the simple fact that it was more wearable than most: stripes. More specifically, striped tops with their preppy edge across polos, tank tops, and even tube tops. The city looked like it was hosting a colourful remake of Beetlejuice , and I'll be honest, we're definitely into it. ©Getty Images/Victor VIRGILE/Gamma-Rapho/Jacopo Raule Of course, stripes have been slowly making a splash across runways all year. Take Miu Miu, for example, where cropped striped polos and crewnecks have been walking the catwalk for a few seasons now, in shades ranging from classic navy and white to orange and red mustard with brown. Over at Bottega Veneta's SS25 show, a striped scarf top was paired with a matching midi skirt, while Chanel Cruise 25 showed an array of striped co ords. Miu Miu, Striped T-Shirt While 2025's stripe resurgence has largely been centred around bright combinations, the more classic Breton striped tops are still as chic as ever. Beloved by French girls everywhere and elegant dressers such as Kate Middleton, nautical navy and white striped tops and jumpers are just as popular, adding a touch of polish to the trend. Zara, Striped Knit Top Janka Polliani at Copenhagen Fashion Week ©Getty Images/Edward Berthelot As for styling, a striped top presents endless potential, as the cobblestone Danish streets proved. For a smart casual look, style a long-sleeved top with tailored bermuda shorts and loafers (a combination popular with countless influencers). Alternatively, opt for a cropped polo à la Miu Miu, paired with high-rise jeans, like Janka Polliani. Gabriella Karefa Johnson at Copenhagen Fashion Week ©Getty Images/Christian Vierig If your style is more whimsical, take notes from Gabriela Karefa Johnson, who mixed and matched shades with careful abandon – pairing her sorbet-hued striped polo with a white and navy lined mini and a red breton-striped jacket tied around the waist. For a more chaotic Gen Z-approved look, layer your striped top under a slinky slip dress over trousers or style a baggy striped polo with a lace skirt and suede trainers. Of course, if you're looking to splurge, there are plenty of designer options from Miu Miu to Faithfull The Brand. However, if you haven't quite budgeted three figures for wardrobe staples, the high street is awash with brilliant designs. Case in point, Damson Madder's Cassia rugby top, whose green stripes have proven popular with fashion editors and influencers alike. For a cool girl-approved take, look to Ganni's colourful striped tank, while Reformation offers a chic crewneck. All of which to say, whatever your style, there's a brilliant striped top for you.

All activities will be led by experienced and qualified instructors. Throughout the retreat, nourishing menus crafted by the executive chef will aim to support gentle detox and renewal. Prices start from £95 per person for the one-day retreats, with the overnight package from £395 based on two sharing.
