JUST under two years ago, Ferne McCann went from from self-confessed party girl, to Essex's hottest yummy mummy.

In November 2017, the 29-year-old welcomed her daughter, Sunday – and ever since, the former TOWIE star has undergone a dramatic transformation.

Back in her TOWIE days, Ferne was always one of the show's favourites – bubbly, outspoken and never far from drama, she was the perfect reality TV star.

But it seems motherhood suits Ferne the most, with the mum — who's recently been linked to Love Island star Jordan Hames – having had a complete style overhaul since welcoming her little girl, who turns two in November.

Stronger, slimmer and more stylish than ever, the TV star went from a size 12 to a toned size 8 after giving birth to Sunday, with Ferne telling Fabulous Digital she's "in the best shape of her life".

And with a glam squad including stylist Ellis Ranson, make-up artists Mikey Phillips and Jade Ewan and fashion-forward BFF Carl Cunard, it's no surprise the mum is looking more stylish than ever, with Ellis explaining the star is determined not to look "mumsy".

"She knows she can still look sexy and feel sexy even though she's a mum," Ellis told Fabulous Digital.

"She doesn't want to look mumsy. Since having Sunday, she's just more comfortable in her body, she's happier with how she looks and open to trying new things.

"Maybe once you have a baby there’s not so much pressure and you are open to trying different styles."

As well as upping her fashion game, Ferne dropped two dress sizes after having Sunday, with the telly star explaining she "worked really hard" for her new figure.

She said: "This hasn't come easily. I've worked and trained really hard and I don't have any shame saying that.

"I didn't put too much pressure on myself. I think that was the secret. I always want to run before I can walk and I want everything right now.

"But pregnancy taught me to be more patient, just to relax and go with it. And once you change your mindset, it's definitely more achievable."

And rightly so, Ferne loves showing off her new figure, explaining: "If you’ve worked hard at something, you should absolutely have the right to flaunt it.

"This body hasn’t come overnight! I trained twice a week, and anything else I managed was a bonus.

"There are so many things you can do from the comfort of your own home – you don’t need to be in the gym. So I’d get working on my squats in front of Made In Chelsea once Sunday was asleep.”

Ferne also launched Fernutrition and started a super-healthy eating plan, which she stuck to rigidly during the week but then relaxed at weekends.

Although she maintains that she doesn't own a set of scales.

“It wasn’t a diet. Whenever I’ve put myself on a diet in the past it just makes me want to go to a McDonald’s drive-thru, eat chocolate and binge."

And it's something that Ferne's stylist has noticed, too, with Ellis explaining she's more confident than ever in a bikini.

“She lost a lot of weight and started focusing on her fitness. Now she’s happy to have her stomach out.

"She's always been body confident but she's more more open to new looks now.

"She knows what shape bikini works for her and her go-to look is a mini skirt and a tied shirt."

Explaining that she's worked hard for her new look, the 29-year-old revealed she gets frustrated followers accuse her of having had "work done".

On Ferne McCann: First Time Mum, she said: “I’d tell you if I went under the knife.

“I’m not one to not tell you. Everyone knows I had a nose job.

"I'm setting the record straight. I’ve tightened my teeth and I had a nose job.

“And I get my eyebrows threaded. That’s it.

“It's p***ing me off that everyone keeps saying I've had surgery. Like wow, what have I had done?"

Ellis explains that while Ferne's go-to look on TOWIE was a plunging neckline, she now opts for an effortless – but sexy – vibe, loving Zara, Topshop and bit of Boohoo.

“She loved a plunging neckline, she was a bit more boho," she said.

"Now she’s more fashion, she’s cool and effortless. I think that’s the influence of Instagram too and she’s found herself, she’s just more comfortable and confident.

“Now, her fail safe look is a block colour, or the effortless, not-been-styled, model off duty look.

"She’s definitely got sexier and dresses a lot sexier."

And it's not just Ferne who's had a total style makeover – in fact, little Sunday has been having styling sessions off Ellis too.

The mum and daughter duo are known for dressing in matching outfits – with the pair looking adorable at BFF Billie Faiers' Maldives wedding earlier this year.

And Ellis – who has been styling Ferne for five years – says it was always the plan.

“We always spoke about it the whole time she was pregnant, without knowing it was a girl, that was always the plan.

“It’s definitely like a go-to for them."

And it certainly seems the mum is dressing sexier, with Ferne wowing fans when she stepped out in a daring white jumpsuit held together by safety pins last night.

Attending the Animal Hero Awards in London, Ferne spoke about her rumoured romance with 24-year-old Love Island star Jordan Hames.

She told The Sun Online: "So we had a little kiss the other night. I met him that night and had a little snog.

"What's a snog between two reality stars? Why's it always me that gets snapped doing it?"
