WAGs Boutique - The Football Challenge

WAGs Boutique Update - Episode 4Better 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.

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 Update - Episode 4With only 2 more challenges to go and the score now 4 all, this week both teams have to work extra hard to try and win this challenge.

The challenge this week takes the girls aboard, but they don’t have a clue where they are going.

WAGs Boutique - The Challenge

The girls picked for the challenge this week were Jadene and Charlotte from Better Half and Krystell and Michaela and Bows.

As they arrive at Heathrow Airport their destination is revealed, and they head off to Malaga to the house of PR legend Max Clifford.

Max reveals that they will have to create their own PR stunt and make it in the papers on Sunday.

WAGs Boutique - Back at the boutiques

Back at the boutiques there is another twist for the girls as they discover they will have new managers.

Fellow WAG and glamour model Michelle Marsh is manager for Better Half and serious business woman Tamara Beckwith is manager for Bows. Will they be able to cope with girls??

Tamara tries her best to control the girls, but is left tearing her hair out at the end of the day and the situation isn’t much better at Better Half as Michelle is left to man the till by herself, so she decides to shut up shop until the girls return.

Back on the challenge, the girls are trying to put together ideas of what they can do, Better Half have an idea to chain themselves to Buckingham Palace, but decide against it as it may end up being negative PR. Charlotte then manages to rope her friend and fellow WAG Danielle Lloyd into joining them and they get into their bikinis and speak to the paparazzi, who get the photographers organised.

Krystell and Michaela decide to dress as sexy bunny girls as it was Easter and meet with a photographer from The Sun.

Next day at the boutiques Michelle decides to take the girls out for a picnic lunch leaving the shop without any staff. Julie couldn’t believe it, so goes next door to help out but ends up selling some of their stock for only £5!!

WAGs Boutique - Challenge Results

The Sunday tabloids are out and the girls rush out to get them.

Better Half’s stunt lands them the front page of The Star, but Bows are no where to be found, and they realise that setting their heart on The Sun was obviously not a good idea.

The girls then head to HQ to find out who has won this week’s challenge. The mentors reveal they were not impressed with them this week at all, Lyn was furious with Better Half and Anna said Michaela should not be part of Bows.

Max Clifford (via satellite) revealed Better Half as this week’s winners, putting them back in the lead by 5-4.

As soon as the results were revealed all hell breaks loose and ends in everyone arguing (for a change).

With only 2 weeks left, the heat is now on!!

Will Better Half win next week to make them the overall challenge winners or will Bows close the gap to make it even more intense.

WAGs Boutique - 3 weeks until the winners are revealed

WAGs Boutique Update - Episode 4With 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.

WAGs Boutique - Back at the boutiques

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.

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.
