I spend £1,100 on beauty treatments every month. This is exactly what it's done to my face: SCARLETT DARGAN
There are a few issues with this, like it's pretty antisocial, really boring and interrupts my lunch schedule (I always try to book around 10am and, by the time I leave, I am starved). There's also the £420 bill I'm presented with every time my hairdresser has finished working their magic – although, truly, that's never bothered me as much as the whole boredom and missing lunch thing.

How to style up your garden for a summer party
It's the season for hosting outdoors. Google searches for 'garden party' have surged by 128 per cent in the last three months, and more than half of us use our gardens for hosting, according to a new report by the furniture company Barker & Stonehouse. But what to do if you've sent out the invitations and then realised, on surveying your back garden, that it's not up to scratch? This is the situation I found myself in recently ahead of a birthday party I was planning. But although we may all have a long list of jobs we'd like to do outdoors, I found it's possible to transform your garden quite quickly with a few expert tips, by repurposing things you already have, and the odd judicious purchase. Set the scene The first step is a tidy-up: those basic jobs like mowing the lawn, sweeping the patio, deadheading the roses and trimming any large hedges make the garden look instantly more cared for. I had already gone a step further: sick of the sight of my lawn several weeks before, I dug it up and laid a new turf. Any equipment needs to be put away: I had all my exercise equipment scattered across the patio, so I bought a neat wooden storage unit from Garden Trading to stow it away.

A baseball cap is 2025's must-wear accessory - here are the ones we're shopping
Daily Mail journalists select and curate the products that feature on our site. If you make a purchase via links on this page we will earn commission - learn more Once reserved for dads in the park or off-duty celebs dodging paps, the humble baseball cap is now a mainstay of the fashion set's wardrobe. The accessory is no longer a sun-shielding afterthought but a serious sartorial statement, with brands from Hermès to Celine showing off their own versions of the luxe accessory on runways at fashion week. Why the sudden resurgence? Likely because it's become cool to look casual. Heels have been replaced with Adidas Sambas; tailored trousers with wide-leg jeans; summer dresses with tummy-baring co-ords. Throwing on a baseball cap is yet another way to downplay your outfit's formality. Don't just take our word for it. Kendall Jenner 's been snapped more times with her New York Yankees baseball cap than without it this summer. Jennifer Lawrence nailed off-duty mum chic with her In the Mood for Love cap in May, before showing off an iconic Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1 style the week after. General consensus seems to be that the sillier a slogan, the better. Let be honest: it's also the ultimate lazy-girl hack. Bad hair day? Cap. Outfit feeling a bit mumsy? Cap. Suddenly, you look cooler, sharper and like you know what you're doing – even if you're on day-five hair that's coated in three layers of dry shampoo. Below, we've compiled a list of the hottest styles of baseball cap to shop for the end of summer, from iconic sports teams to pretty patterned ones. The best bit of all? When the good old British rain does turn up, it's a foolproof way to keep your hair dry. If that's not enough to convince you, nothing is. Classic caps Want a laidback style you can wear with everything? Opt for a versatile colour (you'll get most use out of white, cream, black or red caps) and durable materials like cotton. Always try on before buying – we've fallen foul to too many caps with too-high a crown that makes it look as though we have a pointy head. Not cute. Lululemon Cotton Baseball Cap £35 Shop Tommy Hilfiger Organic Cotton Cap £35 Shop & Other Stories Classic Cap £27 Shop Slogan caps The slogan tees cooler little sister, slogan caps work so well because people have to stare really hard to tell what they say. Hence the cap draws attention away from your hair/face/outfit and to your clever and silly personality. Everyone knows the more ridiculous the slogan, the more stylish the wearer. Daisy London 'Wish You Were Here' Cap £25 Shop Girl Gang 'Too Old For DiCaprio' Cap £33 Shop UFN 'Expensive And Difficult' Cap £28 Shop Stella McCartney 'About F***ing Time' cap £195 Shop Sports caps The key to a good sports cap is choosing an iconic team that's been around for ages rather than a buzzy team. That way you know it'll last for years (unless you're really cursed). Ask Kendall Jenner and her New York Yankees hat. And don't worry – no actual sports knowledge is required. New York Yankees Hat £21 Shop Scuderia Ferrari Cap £38 Shop Wilson Classic Cap £30 Shop Vintage Lionesses Cap £20 Shop Patterned caps Want the attention-grabbing element of a slogan cap without the out-there saying? A patterned cap does the same job, so long as you stick to a monochromatic outfit to avoid clashing patterns or colours. We love a basic stripe, but Ganni's leopard print one may well turn our head this autumn... Adidas x Liberty Floral Cap £25 Shop Ganni Leopard Cap £90 Shop Oliver Bonas Pinstripe Cap £28 Shop Free People Mixed Plaid Cap £32 Shop
