Nostalgic girlhood museum to open in Cumbernauld mall
Bellshill-based Wendy Hesketh is bringing the landmark project to Cumbernauld after seven years of planning. Trendy Tuesday Girl Museum will showcase British girls' bedrooms throughout the decades – offering visitors a trip down memory lane through its large assortment of toys, clothes, shoes, posters, bedding, furniture, electronics, wallpapers, beauty products and much more. Wendy Hesketh (Image: Supplied) Wendy has amassed the impressive collection over decades, starting in 1987 with the purchase of a Mandy annual and continuing into 2025 with help from eBay, Gumtree, charity shops and car boot sales. She said: 'This museum concept means so much to me because for the first time, we have a museum that honours girls and preserve female culture. Read more: John Daly: Many parents feel underinformed and underutilised by schools "It's exciting to link people with objects from their past, to trigger happy memories of growing up. "Ordinary, working-class people's lives matter too, not just the rich. "We deserve a page in history, even with our plastic fashion dolls, boy band posters, platform shoes and jangly bracelets. Wendy has amassed the impressive collection over decades (Image: Supplied) "Full, vibrant lives that should be remembered fondly." But Wendy says her agenda is more serious too – as she hopes the museum will remind visitors of the challenges still facing women in 2025. The museum founder said: 'There is still a gender pay gap and there is still an unacceptable level of gender-based violence. (Image: Supplied) "That needs to be noted and considered unacceptable. "I think it's important to document the treatment of women in the recent past and to compare that with where we are now." Since setting up the website and social media feeds for Trendy Tuesday back in 2018, Wendy has organised temporary exhibitions at other spaces – including a Christmas-themed pop-up at Summerlee Museum of Industrial Life in Coatbridge. Wendy also created 13 "reminiscence boxes" using vintage suitcases filled with objects from the past. These were tested on patients at Wishaw General Hospital and St Andrew's Hospice. Wendy is thrilled to now be bringing her project to the physical space at 20-22 Teviot Walk, The Centre, Cumbernauld. However, there is a lot of work to complete in order for her vision to be fully realised – from transforming the former Bright House unit, to physically moving the collection there and finding volunteers. Wendy is seeking old furniture to complete bedroom displays, as well as local artists and makers to share their work in the museum's gift shop. A crowdfunder has been set up to meet these aims but it has stalled at £350 so far. Wendy is hoping to boost that figure to not only open the museum but provide a space for the local community to gather. She said: "We plan to have groups in to learn knitting, weaving and rug making etc. "We are more connected yet more socially isolated than ever. "We want to change that. "We can also use our space to hold events and other activities aimed at reducing social isolation and advocating for disadvantaged groups." Wendy hopes the museum will spark up conversations between young and old, men and women. She said: "We're proud to be the UK's first and only museum of girlhood. "We're here to preserve what growing up as a girl in Britain was like, from the 20th century. "Our museum explores identity – mostly through the prism of gender, but also ethnicity, class, and sexuality – in the modern world. "We want all ages, from Boomers, Generation X, Millennials and Gen Z (born from 1997 onwards) to be able to identify with our objects. "Brothers, dads, uncles and male partners won't be left out – they will be able to identify with many of the objects too."

Hailey Bieber Makes a Bid for the Trend—and Fruit—of the Season
From the woman who brought you Strawberry Girl Summer comes—say it with me now—Lemon Drop Summer. Hailey Bieber is in Mallorca, where she's celebrating the launch of her newest Rhode lip treatment, lemontini. And, like she did with her strawberry Krispy Kreme collab in 2023, Bieber is gunning to make lemon the citrus du jour. She recently declared butter yellow 'played out,' opting for a zestier shade in a trendy beachside look. Emilio Pucci's psychedelic prints are enjoying a moment in the sun this summer, and Bieber is all aboard the revival. She's so keen, in fact, that she tapped Pucci to fashion her a custom, lemon yellow set for her beachside celebration: a bikini top with a matching cropped jacket and a pair of capris. She and stylist Dani Michelle rounded out the look with a pair of kitten-heeled flip-flops and Méga jewelry. Bieber has incorporated pedal pushers into her wardrobe recently, from the polka-dotted pair she wore just a few weeks ago to the classic black capris she donned for dinner at Sushi Park. While she's endorsing the existing Pucci and pedal pusher trends, she's also reminding us that she's no follower, throwing her weight behind lemon yellow. If anyone can make it the color of the moment, it's Hailey Bieber.
