About this deal

Anya reflects on her ambitions for her children and concludes: "If you just love your children to bits and make them feel incredible and confident then that's the greatest gift you can give them" Such a powerful statement as we often feel we need to provide criticism to help progress, but forget each of us have our own inner critic that's doing a great job at that already. What we need is love and encouragement. Anya shares about her journey as a businesswoman in fashion, most notably for the “I’m not a plastic bag” campaign, her life experiences and juggling life as a working mother (as do many successful career women). Her writing style is succinct and clear, with lists at certain points just like her personality. It’s motivating and straightforward like speaking to a friend. She makes entrepreneurship sound so easy, yet not everyone could have made it a success like her. The title is based on her most frequently shared piece of advice. “On the one hand it’s flippant, trivial. It literally sums up how much better I feel about myself – how much more confident, how much glintier-eyed, how much better able to cope and respond – if I have freshly washed hair. But on the other hand, it is a reminder that I must look after myself, that I must put my own oxygen mask on first.”

There is mention of some wide-reaching advice which should appeal to the typical reader, but these came almost as an after thought at the end of most chapters, as opposed to her own story and experiences woven around the advice that is promised on the cover.

About the contributors

The book is brimming with her tips and ideas on how to be a working mother/parent, how to run an organisation, how to be more organised and tidy, how to look after your kids (and ideas on how to get other people involved), how to be a step-parent, how to be a partner, how to find a mentor, how to care for ageing parents, and how to be yourself authentically (and trust yourself), and how to let go of the idea of perfection. the kids are now teenagers and are more likely to become rebellious, breaking curfew (her eldest one has brilliant idea to solve this issue, he always has) First of all, congratulations on the launch of The Village. It’s like nothing we’ve ever seen before. How did the idea come about? I am slightly dyslexic too, and strongly agree that I may not be able to find the time to sit and read long books or maybe be correct with my grammar. Though this book I was hooked and needed to read every single word.

If In Doubt, Wash Your Hair: A Manual for Life: Hindmarch

You call yourself a “Work in Progress’ in the book. Which parts are you working on presently and how has Covid effected this? There is no magic answer here, but good communication is crucial. My children know that they are the most important part of my life, but they also know that I am rubbish at homework. So, my advice would be not to try to do everything but to bring what you are good at.

Anya Hindmarch: Great British Brand 2023

Launch of the ‘I Am Not A Plastic Bag’ tote, igniting the debate on plastic bag use and contributing to the UK starting to charge for single-use bags 2020 I do have a few outfits that I can pull out of the wardrobe that I know will instantly make me feel myself. I love simple shapes and classic colours – a great pair of wide-leg jeans, the perfect white shirt and a trench coat is my go-to. If you came for hair care routine, sorry you missed the memo. Anya Hindmarch shares great advices for women especially mommies with career to build. Although I am not yet a career woman, far from being a mom, I have no problem taking in her words. I love that she doesn’t speak so highly of herself, she’s so humble (I really want to meet her in real life!) and her life stories that she shared are perfectly flawed aka normal. Also reshaping creativity as problem solving, we often label ourselves as uncreative because we aren't naturally 'arty' but creativity is far broader than imagery, it's imagining something differently.
