!!!! Salma Hayek's Crazy Balenciaga Booties!!!!

Salma Hayek may have just opted for a simple black tee and skirt combo for the Green Auction at Christie’s New York last night, but her outfit was far from boring thanks to some killer Balenciagaspring/summer 2010 booties. Salma’s husband, Francois Henri Pinault owns PPR, which runs The Gucci Group, including Balenciaga, Gucci, YSL and Stella McCartney to name but a few luxury labels. I love the cute bob and the highlights and that outfit to. I also love the patterned pleated mini! xx

Shop The Trend: Floral Dresses

Looks like Dolce & Gabbana wins the award for most-worn collection so far - the spring/summer 2010 blooms have been making more red carpet appearances than the celebs this spring. The summer's perfect print comes in various frock forms, from Ashley Greene’s flirty pleated style and Jaime Winstone’s Dolce Vita lace trimmed number to Fergie and Tina Fey’s Riviera chic - not to mention the corset tops and boudoir shorts that also hit the catwalk. xxx



Giles Deacon To Design For Emanuel Ungaro?


After a somewhat disastrous hook-up with Lindsay Lohan (the actress lasted just one season as Artistic Advisor for the brand) the style rumour mill went into overdrive today after Brit fashion favourite Giles Deacon was spotted by WWD lunching with Emanuel Ungaro owner Asim Abdullah.
Designer Estrella Archs, pictured walking the runway with Lindsay, has left the company to work on her own label, leaving the top job at the Paris fashion house free. With Giles continuing to wow the crowds at Paris Fashion Week – he now shows there instead of London - will he take time out from his own label to work his magic at Ungaro?

Chinos!

I absolutely love chinos I bought my first pair the other day in khaki and they were cropped to that's two trends in one go.

Kylie Minogue’s Quirky Cropped Trousers

These trousers are fab i love the yellowy lime green colour! these trousers were designed by Emilio Pucci - love it xx

Jennifer Lopez Dazzles In A Lanvin Dress!!

 Jennifer Lopez’s killer looks, and last night she topped off her style parade with this Lanvin showstopper. The draping and bow belt are instantly recognisable as one of designer Alber Elbaz’s cocktail creations. Paired with T-bar heels from the spring summer 2010 collection.Proving that over the age of 40 you can still look good like they say your as old as you feel- obviously jen still thinks she's in her 20's! xxx

Amanda Seyfried Wears Her Dress Back To Front!


We’re all for making a fashion statement here at LOOK, but it never entered our heads to turn up to work with our clothes the wrong way round.
Well, it seems there are a different set of rules in celebville, because Mamma Mia actress Amanda Seyfried trod the red rug at the Mother & Child film premiere this week in a dress that was back to front. The dress is from London label Bodyamr’s autumn/winter 2010 collection, and features a grey printed front with a purple zip-up back – Amanda wore the dress the wrong way round, so the zip was at the front. 

Jessica Alba's Laid-Back LA Look!

Movie star and yummy mummy Jessica Alba is something of an expert when it comes to off-duty dressing, and this spring ensemble is no exception. The Valentine’s Day star looked effortlessly chic as she made some last-minute preparations in LA today before the Tribeca Film Festival kicks off tomorrow, where she’s acting as one of the jurors. Wearing a white shirt, printed scarf, boyfriend jeans and ballet flats, we especially love her super-square sunnies. 

Sarah Jessica Parker Works ’70s Chic!

I just love this outfit that Sarah Jessica Parker is wearing, its a fantastic summer outfit love the booties and the hat.Proving yet again that she’s earnt her style stripes she steps out working yet another new trend. Her ’70s-inspired look is laid-back city cool at its best, i also love the bleached jeans and oversized purple hobo bag, and did we mention that her Louis Vuitton scarf. xx

Cat Deeley And Kelly Osbourne Are White-Hot

Cat Deeley and Kelly Osbourne showed the LA celebs just how to look effortlessly sexy on the red carpet without flashing too much flesh as they attended The Brit Week launch party in a couple of demure and sophisticated white dresses. Cat Deeley looked her usual glamorous self as she posed in a floaty design. The TV star completed her look and stole the accessories winner of the week award with her metallic peep-toes and envelope clutch – we want them all! Elsewhere a svelte Kelly Osbourne was working her magic in a classic white dress complete with black gloves and a purple rinse – we’re loving her new fashion approach. 

Beth Ditto's Back On The High Street!

Beth Ditto's causing big fashion rumours this morning with reports coming in thick and fast that she's to design another collections for plus-sizehigh street shop Evans. Due to land in shops in September 2010, get set for a scramble because last time her printed leggings, party dresses and studded accessories caused a style crush in store. LOOK's been told there's loads more of the same to come for the second drop so watch this space for updates ladies! 

The Marks & Spencer Spring ‘It’ Dress!

A little bit sports luxe, slightly tribal, and with some clever could-be-designer draping huge for autumn/winter 2010 too, we predict this Marks & Spencer dress is set to be a summer sell out. It lands in stores in May, and with a £29.50 price tag, should leave you with change for some fierce heels to top it off with! xx

Fearne Cotton Goes Brunette!

Fearne Cotton has ditched her golden blonde highlights and gone brunette! Fearne dyed her hair red, then brown, for charity fundraiser Sport Relief last week and it seems she’s decided to stick with her new darker shade. Well, either that or she hasn’t managed to squeeze in a hair appointment between shifts at Radio One! I am not entirely sure on this one but its a different transformation for her! xx

Christina Aguilera's Rockabilly Hairstyle?

When we clocked Christina Aguilera’s recent updo, we thought we were having a flashback from the final scene in Grease! But her high-impact style is actually really easy to do and the key to this look is in the product. Run a curl mousse like Tigi Bed Head Foxy Curls Extreme Curl Mousse, £9.90, through your hair. Then, tong just the bottom half of your hair into tight, bouncy curls. Next, after dividing your hair into sections, pull the curls tightly into the centre of your head and pin them securely, working your way from your forehead right down to the nape of your neck. Let the curls tumble a little, then finish with a large dose of hairspray. Retro glamour in an instant. But to me again its a very old look maybe more the 80's style are we taking inspiration from the 70's and 80's and i didn't know about this? x

Lady Gaga Launches MAC's VIVA GLAM In Japan!!

Fashion, music and make-up collided last night at the MAC Cosmetics Pan Asian VIVA GLAM launch in Japan, in honour of the MAC AIDS Fund. New VIVA GLAM girl Lady Gaga pulled off another killer performance in a white outfit similar to her lacy look at this years Brit Awards 2010. Gaga performed Bad Romance on a MAC VIVA GLAM inspired piano, specially designed by artist Terence Koh, which will be auctioned at Donatella Versace and Anna Wintour’s ‘Art of Elysium’ event later this month. 

Heidi Klum Goes Short With A Sophisticated New Hairstyle!


Heidi Klum showed off a sophisticated new look on US TV programme The Tonight Show, as she debuted her dramatic new haircut to chat show audience members. I am really not feeling the hair it doesn't suit her at all and i think that it reminds me of a 70's hair cut!
The supermodel flaunted her money-making face and figure in a curve-hugging cream dress and sky-high Christian Louboutin shoes as she appeared on the American TV show. Heidi explained to host Leno that she decided to ditch her signature long blonde locks for a short and sharp hairstyle because: “I got bored as we all do once in a while as girls. Whenever I get bored I change it". I am starting to think that is it hair season with so many different celebrities changing their hairstyles this is a trend I must definitely catch up on! xx

Renée Zellweger And Hayden Panettiere Get Extreme New Hairstyles!!

Renée Zellweger and Hayden Panettiere both showed off dramatic new hairstyles this week.Hayden Panettiere sported the biggest transformation of the week as she ditched her all-American girl locks for a short and sleek hairstyle at the Global Home Tree Earth Day reception in Los Angeles. The Heroes actress sported a slicked-back hairdo complete with quiff as she posed in a sequin LBD and black tights. On the other side of town, Renée Zellweger showcased her short, textured bob at the premiere of her new movie ‘My Own Love Song’ at the Tribeca Film Festival 2010 in New York.

Fashion’s finest were out in force last night for the launch of Zac Posen’s eagerly anticipated collection for Target. The store, a sort of US Matalan, is not new to designer collaborations, having had Sarah Jessica Parker, Anna Sui and Proenza Schouler all design sell-out lines.

A Jacobs Wedding...

WHILE the fashion world speculates about Marc Jacobs' impending marriage to Lorenzo Martone, the other person closest to him has named the date - for his own nuptials. Marc Jacobs ceo Robert Duffy has confirmed that he is set to marry his partner Alex Cespedes next Tuesday, with the designer as best man!! 

Coleen Rooney Shows Off Her Enviable Curves At Ladies Day...

Coleen Rooney put all the other race-goers to shame as she attended Ladies Day at Aintree. The yummy mummy left the multi-coloured dress, orange tan and oversized fascinators to the wannabe WAGs and looked chic and demure in a sharp-shouldered LBD by Matthew Williamson which was complete with sequin bag by Miu Miu and leg-lengthening Christian Louboutin shoes( just love love). Mrs Rooney left her amazing post-baby figure, statement dress and eye-catching accessories to do the talking by keeping her hair and makeup simple with a high ponytail and smoky eyes. This is how to effortless chic! xx

Rihanna's Spring Style!!

I love this what Rihanna was wearing it made me feel all spring and summerish i love the super chic combo – those floral hot pants and beyond cute and I really love the tilted trilby. Topped of with super cute clashing print Alexander Wang heels – this girl sure know how to work spring style!! xx

Coleen Rooney Wins Best Dressed At Aintree!

Coleen Rooney made another fabulous appearance at Aintree over the weekend when she stepped out in one of spring/summer 2010’s hottest shades by wearing a floaty nude dress to watch the Grand National. Mrs Rooney accessorised her figure-flattering dress with leg-enhancing her nude Christian Louboutin heels, a pale pink clutch, statement gold earrings and her favourite hairstyle of the week, the bouffant ponytail. Her second outfit choice of the weekend was in contrast to her thigh-length LBD that she wore the day before. I am not to sure what I think about this dress the colour looks okay on her but were all used to seeing her in something more figure hugging showing of that silhouette of hers. xx

Alexandra Burke Copies Ex-Mentor Cheryl Cole's Style....

It seems Alexandra Burke is not content with Cheryl Cole just being her mentor but now taking her style advice too! well not taking it copying with some slight changes.  Alex stepped out in this APC anchor sweat top seven months to the day since Cheryl last gave the same top an outing – hmm coincidence or what? The X Factor star's copycat style was made even more obvious with the addition of a similar gold pendant.  After all, who doesnt want to look like Cheryl Cole? But all this style matching has got us wondering if this nautical top is a hand-me-down from Cheryl – if only she was our best mate! xx

Glee’s Lea Michele's Hot New Look!

Is there anyone who’s not a little bit obsessed with the american TV hit show Glee? But while we’re still mourning its midseason break  which is back on monday yay! - the cast took to the red carpet for the spring premiere in LA the otha night and it was geeky character Rachel that got the pap flashbulbs going. Actress Lea Michele stole the show in a psychedelic print plunging Etro maxi dress and nude strappy LaRare heels, whilst showing off her hot new shaggy fringed hairstyle. We’ve got say, it’s a definite improvement on the kne- high socks and pleated skirts we’re used to seeing her in. Love the skin tone heels! xx

Finally got it working...

I have finally got the video to work for my power point which would t work in my presentation but i am hoping fingers crossed for my presentation it works!

Tights Or No Tights?

The question is yes to Tights or no to Tights?! Ahh yes were experiencing the great British summer! One minute the sun’s out, the next it’s gone, which leaves us with a huge dilemma: keep or ditch the tights? This week, Coleen Rooney braved bare legs and Kylie Minogue got her pins out in sunny London town, but Fearne Cotton hung on to her 90 deniers....

Summer 2010?

Can anyone believe this weather were having its soo good getting ready for an early summer, and it looks like its going to be sunny for the rest of the week woo bring on summer 2010! xx

Whitney Port Shows Off Her Bra (In Style, Of Course)..

Underwear is having a fashion moment this season, with designers from Dolce & Gabbana to Fendi working lingerie-inspired looks in their spring/summer 2010 collections. Well, the trend shows no sign of stopping just yet, because the latest way to wear underwear has just got a bit more daring...

Bringing Sexy Velvet Back!

Our best-dressed at last night's Vionnet cocktail party in New York was style-inspiration Ginnifer Goodwin. The Big Love actress stepped out in what else but the recently re-vamped French label Vionnet, and all we can say is wow! Her velvet minidress with cute bow cutouts wasn’t an obvious spring red-carpet choice, but it totally works for us. I love the way she’s toughened up her cute frock with fierce thigh-high boots! Love the cute boy hair cut! 

Gisele Bundchen Shows Off Her Shoe Collection!

Not even a post-baby body would stand between this supermodel and her body-conscious Hervé Léger dress. Just over three months after giving birth to her baby son Benjamin, Gisele Bundchen wraps herself up in a bandage mini frock - quite possibly the tightest dress available on the spring rails right now. Launching the new collection of her eco-friendly sandal line for Ipanema, the summer shoes we lve, but not as much as her seriously sizzling post-baby silhouette! Errmm wayy no fair on the posy baby bod! xx

Sex And The City NEW Trailer!

Rimmels new make up advert


Colour Show-Off




I think that its just the end with her teeth? is it just me or what?! but it just doesn't feel right or even look right!!

Rimmels new make up advert!

I was surprised the other day when i seen Rimmels new make up advert to find these huge teeth staring at me non other than the model Georgia May Jagger! i don't know what they were thinking hiring her as a model for this company if they did want to chose her could t they have done a shot with her mouth closed?? it takes me away from looking at the brand she's trying to sell instead i am looking at her teeth! 

Ultimo No No!

DESPITE rumours that Georgia May Jagger might be fronting the next Miss Ultimo campaign, following Peaches Geldof's dismissal earlier this week, we can confirm the Vogue cover girl won't be baring all for the brand. Peaches Geldof got dropped because of her stunt she pulled the other week in the papers!

Fashion Trend: Maxi Dresses!!!

I love it when it comes to summer my favourite key pices are maxi dresses i have this fab one that i bought from New Look last year and i cant wait to wear it, styling them up with some wedges and a little cardigan! Some celebrities who have already started this trend are Nicole Richie, Nicole Sherzinger and Rachel Zoe are just a handful of our favourite celebrity style icons to have us hitting the high street in a bid to find the perfect spring maxi dress. One of the most versatile and flattering dresses to wear this season, they can look casually cool with gladiator sandals and sunglasses, as seen on Nicole Sherzinger. However, a maxi can also look effortlessly glam on a night out if worn with the right accessories – just follow Nicole Richie and Rachel Zoe’s lead and wear with statement jewels and a party clutch. Shop the best maxi dresses on the high street now!! xx

Rihanna And The Great Ankle Sock Debate!!

Rihanna’s sock and shoe combo has caused a severe divide on the Look fashion desk. One side loves the sporty edge it creates – “it’s the new shoe-boot!” someone screams, while the other half feel the severe tight line shortens the leg – “even pin-legged models can’t pull it off “ they shout!    Whichever team you bat for, Rihanna still deserves her style points – we’d have her wardrobe any day, but not forgeting that last month we seen chloe sevigny wearing this very same style. 

Jennifer Aniston And Amanda Seyfried Kick Off A New LBD Trend!

Seems a plain black dress no longer cuts it in celeb world. Two of our most-watched red carpet starlets have given the simple LBD a super- glam update  – sequins! Jennifer Aniston was first to showcase the look at the Madrid premiere of The Bounty Hunter. Her pre-fall Valentino mini dress’s sequin panel detail and chiffon skirt are the fashion-forward update a classic bandeau like this has been crying out for. Next up was Amanda Seyfried in this bobby dazzler of a dress – we love the subtle green sequin detail, very Proenza Schouler!

Carey Mulligan Goes Twiggy!

When i seen this images of Carey Mulligan in the Wonderland magazine she reminded me of someone with her pixie crop and Bambi eyes, she looks like the ‘60s style icon Twiggy. Well, at least if the acting jobs dry up, it looks like Carey could have a successful second career as a Twiggy lookalike!!

lady GaGa smoke glasses!

OMG, i love this picture of the smoking glasses from Lady GaGa's new video "Telephone". I think these glasses are fab and even though i don't think that they will catch on as a trend i think that they do well.

Time to lose the pounds!

Lately I've been thinking its time to lose the weight, I've put it off far to long and  i have decided more than ever that its the right time and also its my friends wedding in July so hoping to get trim and fit for then! x

Easter time!

Finally its Easter and i can take a little break from all this uni work lol, i cant wait to eat my Easter eggs this year i've only got three as i didn't want to eat a lot of chocolate this year. Now that its Easter means i get to spend a lot of time at home seeing my family and friends. see you all when i am back xx

Also were going apartment hunting which i've got my eye on a few cheeky ones. wish us good luck xx

check out Sarah Harding new figure!

It looks to me that Sarah Harding is giving Cheryl Cole a run for her money as Girls Aloud’s style champion when she stepped out at the Empire Film Awards in a figure-hugging LBD. The singer and St Trinian’s actress flaunted her enviable curves and tanned body in a thigh-high draped dress complete with a Chanel handbag, wearing Christian Louboutin heels which have to say are every girls dream to own a pair of these shoes. We’re loving Sarah’s recent sophisticated approach to fashion. Keep it up! 

Amanda Seyfried Looks Electric At The Chloe Premiere...

I have to say that Amanda Seyfried added a touch of colour to a dreary day in New York at the premiere for her new film, Chloe, as she stepped out in an electric blue asymmetric dress complete with side-swept hairstyle and black accessories. The 24-year old actress looked picture-perfect as she promted her new film, in which she plays a women who is hired to test a husband because his wife feels that she cannot trust his fidelity.and i have to say I've been to see this film its got a good plot and storyline but I wasn't keen on the lesbian sex scene with Julienne Moore, its a different role from her sweet characters in Mama Mia and Mean girls. Cant you just go back to kissing those gorgeous straight fellas in films pleasssee! 

Kate Moss Shows Stella McCartney Her Support!

Long time fashion friends Kate Moss and Stella McCartney got together last night at the launch of Stella’s new collection for Gap Kids in London. A super smiley Kate turned up with beau Jamie Hince .The event was one stylish gathering of yummy mummies including Sharleen Spiteri, Camilla Rutherford and Meg Matthews joining Stella and Kate.

Liam Gallagher To Launch Ladieswear?

Ermm hold on a minute now what the hell is Liam Gallagher doing even thinking about designing a woman's wear collection. What does this guy no about woman wear he doesn't even no how to crack a smile. Gallagher has announced he wants to expand his Pretty Green label to include women's wear – apparently due to demand from his female fans!! hmmm .. well i don't think he will design anything that i will be interested in!

Chloë Sevigny yet again Kicks Off A New Trend!!

Chloë Sevigny has trademarked yet another look everyone is dying to steal! Her denim cut-off shorts and ankle socks combo is such a winner, she decided to show it off two days in a row. While it might not be warm enough to bare your pins over there in America but here just not yet, you can still take your cut-offs for a test run – just wear with opaque tights. Then when the weather heats up, switch to socks and you've got the signature Sevigny look nailed!

M & S new advert



Here is a sneak preview of what spring 2010 collection M & S is showing xx

Marks & Spencer's New TV Ad Launches!

Has anyone else yet seen Mark & Spencer's New TV advert?? its fun and flirty and has some new face models for this year. Including Twiggy who is a M&S favourite, also VV Brown, Dannii Minogue, and Lisa Snowdon. It try s to appeal to a more younger crowd but what i don't understand it that every time i go in to M&S i never ever see any of these bright fun clothes that they are trying to sell, i normally see drab clothes which is for more the mature woman. The collection shows for spring 2010. 

Lady GaGa birthday.

Another Lady who celebrated her birthday in the same week was Lady GaGa. She turned 24 on Sunday and thanked al her fans and will continue singing for another 30 years. she refereed to her fans as "little monsters". hmm i wonder what her birthday suit was?? xx

Happy Birthday Sarah Jessica Parker

Last week Sarah Jessica Parker celebrated her 45th birthday and no doubt it’s going to be a fabulous fashion affair. The Sex And The City star has brought us endless glamour, not only to our screens but to red carpet events and New York streets, and we just can’t wait for another 45 years of glamour! And no matter how old she gets it seems to me she gets better with age i love the way she dresses- cannot wait for sex and the city 2 ! eekk xx
