I'm a 25-year-old fashion writer and my mum is 61: these are the trendy brands we both love, and the ONLY slimming, leg-lengthening, anti-ageing pieces to be seen in this season

Ten years ago, there was nothing I dreaded more than a shopping trip with my mother. Today, things have completely changed. Now 25 and 61, we can easily spend a whole day shopping, happily hopping around a shared changing room, trying on the same pair of jeans.
