Horribly veiny legs and seem to be getting worse by the week means that I tend to wear clothes to cover them.

In 30s, fit and toned but feel conscious that people I see regularly wonder why I’m constantly in clothes down to my ankles... and this is 100% magnified by the current heatwave in the UK!

Advice on what to wear? Success stories re. vein removal? TIA.

I have terrible spider veins - legs like a block of Stilton! They've been like this for most of my adult life and are getting worse but it's taken me until my late 30s to realise it doesn't matter! I am currently wearing a pair of denim cut offs and I feel so free!

If you're not ready to embrace them, fake tan or leg make up helps. I also like a 'wafty' culotte or there are loads of midi/buffet dresses around this year.

Fake tan. I prefer a marmalade look to stilton. Smile
