WAGs Boutique – The Football Challenge

Better Half is currently in the lead by 5 wins to 4, so the tension was high in both boutiques this week.

This week’s challenge was set by fashion editor for The Telegraph, Hilary Alexander. This week the WAGs are required to design their own football kits, which they will model and play 5-a-side football in! Watch out other half’s!!

The manager’s picked this week were Jadene for Better Half and Michaela for Bows.

WAGs Boutique – The Challenge

Jadene picks Heather and Cassie for the challenge (‘because Heather is great at design and Cassie hasn’t won a challenge.’). Michaela chooses Julie and Nicola T for Bows.

The girls go off to start designing their football kits. Cassie and Heather decide on a white kit with the Better Half logo and hot pant-style shorts. Bows select a blue strip with gold sash, draw-string bottoms and pink diamantes.

Manager Michaela decides to get some more stock for the Bows and makes three appointments with wholesalers. Krystell says: ‘Michaela works well when she is in charge. She’s only a problem when she isn’t the manager!’ However, later that day Michaela cuts her stock buying short and decides to go shopping instead, which doesn’t impress her employees!

Meanwhile at Better Half, manager Jadene has decided to hold a sale to try and get rid of some of their stock and raise even more money for charity.

Madeleine also gave Michaela a taste of her own medicine, as she was the one to play up this week!!

Back on the Challenge, both teams receive their kits and get to work to make them look glamourous and sexy.  Bows have a little bit of drama, as their sowing machine explodes on them, leaving them a little shaken up with Nicola saying: “Julie that could have killed you”. They do continue and finally the kits are ready.

WAGs Boutique – Bows v Better Half football match

Sunday arrives and its time to complete the challenge with a game of 5-a-side. Jadene and Julie’s other halves, Marc Bircham and Kevin Phillips volunteer to manage the two teams. Marc sets his first rule – no lipstick until half time!

The match kicks off and Better Half is the first to score with a goal from Charlotte, but Better Half doesn’t stop there as they win by 4-0 (with Charlotte scoring 3 goals, proving she’s not just a pretty face).

As the full time whistle blows, its now time to find out this week’s winners.

Hilary Alexander provides her views on the two kits, and even though Better Half win the football game, it is Bows who impress her the most, making the score even.

Their prize is to see the Barnet Ladies FC sport the Bows’ strip. They also receive £1,000 of kit to sell in their boutique.

Now with the score 5 all and only 1 week to go, everything is to play for in WAGs Boutique.

WAGs Boutique – 3 weeks until the winners are revealed

With only 3 weeks to go until the winners of WAGs Boutique is declared, the score stands at 4-3 to Better Half, so Bows are feeling the pressure.

This week’s challenge was set by Kitty Klaw, an international burlesque performer. The challenge this week is – to model, perform and auction burlesque garments, watched by the prominent movers and shakers of the burlesque world. The team that makes the most profit from the auction and what they sell in their boutiques on Saturday will be the winners.

The managers picked this week are Charlotte from Better Half and Krystelle from Bows, but there is a twist.

Before the teams go off to get started, it is revealed that Lyn and Anna will actually be the managers this week and Charlotte and Krystell are the assistant managers. Leaving the girls shocked and unhappy.

The managers choose the girls for the challenge – Cassie and Jadene for Better Half and Madeleine and Michaela for Bows.

Both teams head back to the boutiques, and the mentor’s intent to restore order to the stores. Anna wants to get Bows’ customers to leave with more than one item each, whilst Lyn has a stricter regime for Better Half with penalties for the girls who fail to work hard.

The mentors also decide to stop selling the charity tops in store and turn the stores into fashion boutiques again (charity items can still be purchased online from 13th April – click here).

WAGs Boutique – Preparing for the challenge

Michaela and Cassie get into their costumes, while Madeleine and Jadene watch trying not to laugh. The girls only have a short time to learn their routines, so they have to concentrate, which is usually quite difficult for Michaela!!

Once the girls are ready they head for the stage, Bows go first and Michaela starts her performance while Madeleine leads the auction, the bidding is slow and the girls have to work hard to sell their costume.

Cassie then performs with Jadene running the auction, they seem to have more success and win the first part of the challenge.

However, there are still more items to sell in the boutiques on Saturday.

Lyn is having trouble at Better Half and struggles to control Cassie and Charlotte as they disappear into Bows. Lyn threatens to close the store if they don’t return.

Anna feels sorry for Lyn, so sends the girls back to their boutiques.

WAGs Boutique – Challenge Results

The girls arrive at head quarters to find out this week’s results. The mentors give their feedback, and as you would expect Lyn wasn’t too impressed by Better Half’s behaviour. But, Anna is delighted and says how fantastic her team is.

Kitty Klaw reveals the profits of the auction and sales in the boutiques and declares Bows as this week’s winners. Making the score now 4-4.

June also reveals that there is no manager’s vote next week and the mentors are asked to pick two girls from each team to do next week’s challenge.

Charlotte and Jadene are picked for Better Half and Krystelle and Michaela for Bows. They are also told they will need their passports.

With the score 4-2 to Better Half and only 5 challenges remaining this week’s challenge is more crucial than ever.

This week’s challenge is to sell a range of Isabella Oliver maternity wear for just one day.

The manager’s chosen this week are Jadene (Better Half) and Nicola T (Bows), but there is a twist for the manager’s, they will be swapping shops and managing their rival boutique!

The managers can’t nominate themselves for the challenges this week. So, for Bows, the challengers are Julie and Krystell and for Better Half, Elle and Heather.

Off the girls go to get started.

Both teams select 100 pieces of clothing, the challenge then gets a little harder as the girls get a spot on the shopping channel QVC.

Charlotte from Better Half is absent due to illness, so Better Half are struggling with only Nicola and Cassie to man the shop, but manager Nicola makes it more interesting by throwing a pyjama party!

Meanwhile at Bows, Jadene is trying to control Michaela and sends her out to amuse the queues, for a short while this seems to work and keeps her in one place, but not for long. She escapes and joins the pyjama party next door.

Jadene then discovers mouse droppings in Bows and traces the source to Michaela’s half eaten food left lying in the stock room.

The girl’s on the challenge don’t seem to be having much success and are really struggling to find customers for their maternity range.

WAGs Boutique – Challenge Results
