For me? Nothing barks 'It’s my big day!’ like splashing out on RevitaLash Advanced – followed by the inevitable countdown to lashes I could once only dream of. Sure, it takes two-three months to work its magic, but in the words of Gary B: have a little…

We were all a teeny bit shocked when Pippa Middleton reportedly 'banned’ Meghan Markle from her wedding. But if anyone knows about upstaging the bride, it’s P-Mids: in 2011, her perky derrière was all anyone could talk about at her sister Kate’s wedding to Prince William. But now it seems Pippa, 33, has reshuffled the seating plan and invited Megs to both the reception and the ceremony. 'Meghan is definitely going to the wedding as Harry’s partner, and it’s a major milestone in their relationship,’ says an impeccably placed source. 'You would not believe the amount of discussion that preceded this, but ultimately Harry made the decision. Pippa was understandably nervous about it.’ Pippa’s wedding is set to take place on 20 May at St Mark’s Church in Englefield, Berkshire,…

The age we live in is one of irony, especially where fashion is concerned. Not even the most seasoned trend forecaster could have predicted that last year a T-shirt with delivery heavyweight DHL’s logo slapped across it would reach It item status among those in the know (and who should definitely know better). Similarly, 2017 has its very own WTF fashion item. Just last month, Balenciaga released a new £1,365 cobalt-blue tote which social media was quick to point out bore a striking resemblance to IKEA’s Frakta bag, priced at a more reasonable 40p. See? IRONIC. Now, however, the carryall is dominating newsfeeds once again as crafty types are reworking the iconic IKEA bag into items such as face masks, wallets and thongs. Yes, thongs. To our surprise, some of…

When you’re in need of some serious hair inspo, Pinterest is the place to go. And according to the platform’s recently released Wedding Report, searches for simple, polished up-dos have risen by 83 per cent this year alone. So whether you’re heading down the aisle or not, here’s all the inspo you need to get 2017’s hottest hairstyle……

Bridal beauty is all about being naturally gorgeous, so it’s important that your skin is hydrated and glowing. We love Clinique’s New Moisture Surge Hydrating Supercharged Concentrate, £34, because it’s packed with technology to help skin stay hydrated for a full 24 hours – just what you need on The Big Day… or any day for that matter. When we get in a panic about shine, our first instinct is to reach for the powder, but it’s better to stop the shine at skin level. We like L’Occitane Perfecting Mattifying Fluid, £34, as it removes excess sebum, making pores less visible and complexions more radiant. Don’t get us wrong, we’re all for the glow, just in the right places, and YSL’s new Touche Eclat Glow Shots, £22.50, are great for…

When the weather hots up, wearing less make-up is a given. If you’re going for a more natural look, you’ll need to prep your skin now so it looks the best ever – freeing you up to wear light-touch make-up come summer. Finding products that work for every skin type sounds like mission impossible but we have major news to report. Cetaphil has everything you need for a radiant complexion in one fell swoop – and best of all, for less than £30. Result. 1 PICK THE RIGHT CLEANSER Whatever your skin type, opt for a gentle, soap-free, non-irritating cleanser. Use religiously morning and night, gently massaging it into skin to remove make-up and daily grime, for a squeaky clean and revitalised complexion. Gentle Skin Cleanser, £8.99 2 QUENCH THIRSTY…

Wedding planning is super-exciting, especially when you dream of your special day looking as gorgeously individual as you are. It’s easy to feel bamboozled at the thought of whisking up favours and table plans, but creating your own bespoke wedding style is easier than you think and, might actually end up saving you £££s. Clever crafts and handmade treats are a great way to DIY your big day, without losing any of the wow factor. And, with Pippa’s reception rumoured to be a back garden affair, now’s the time to embrace the trend! CREATE A CENTREPIECE Just add fab fabric flowers. Decorative Bird Cages, from £12 YOURS SINCERELY Save money, write your own. Happily Ever After Invitations (25pk), £12 PETAL POWER Scatter across table settings for a pretty floral finish.…

Happy… SHADY LADIES Now warmer weather has arrived (finally), we’re no longer thinking just about perfect leg prep – instead it’s how to keep cool, and we’re obsessed with the catwalk’s summer ’17 offerings. Supersized hats were seen on models from Giorgio Armani to Erdem, and there’s no better OTT trend to rock. It’s making us smile from ear to ear. In real life, we’ll be rocking this 'Chase The Sun’ version (£18, ASOS) and pairing it with huge tasselled earrings. Happier… A SLICE OF FUN We don’t really need an excuse to indulge in a total carb-fest – but if there is one, we’ll take it! National Baking Day takes place on 17 May, followed shortly after by National Pizza Party Day on 19 May. Result! So make like…

Turn your home into a riad thanks to the high street’s latest obsession with all things Moroccan. From rugs that look as if they’ve come straight from a market bazaar to cushions the colours of exotic spices, there are so many ways to embrace the far-flung vibe. Much like trinkets gathered from your travels, you’ll treasure these pieces for years to come. Magical… MAXINE EGGENBERGER, FASHION NEWS & COMMERCIAL CONTENT EDITOR, SAYS: 'There’s nothing I love more than spending the lighter nights outdoors. I fully intend to spend every evening huddled in front of this chimenea – with a glass of vino in hand, natch.’…

'What I love about bagels is how versatile they are. I love them toasted but I also like them as they are, topped with delicious summery ingredients, like cream cheese and cucumber or chicken and avocado.

THE SISTER Samantha Grant, 52 , slammed Meghan this year, referring to her as a ‘social climber’ whose behaviour was ‘not befitting of a Royal Family member’. Speaking about her half-sister’s relationship (the pair have the same father), Samantha said: ‘Prince Harry would be appalled by what she’s done.’ She also took to Twitter to voice her opinion that ‘Diana would scoff at Meg,’ and later threatened to write a tell-all book. With sisters like this, who needs enemies, eh, Meghan? THE PARENTS Although now separated, Meghan’s parents met in the 70 s when her dad, Thomas Markle, was a lighting director and her mum, Doria Ragland, was working at the same studio. ‘I like to think [my dad] was drawn to her sweet eyes and Afro,’ said Meghan. ‘They…

They’re living almost eight thousand miles apart, but Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright are said to be 'more determined than ever’ to make their long-distance relationship work. While Michelle is currently filming the third series of Our Girl (last week she was in Nepal), Mark has jetted off to LA where he’s working on a new TV project. Not only are they living in different time zones (Nepal is almost 13 hours ahead of LA, making it tricky to Skype), according to our sources, they just can’t seem to make their schedules work. In an interview last July, Michelle told Look exclusively that: 'I don’t see Mark as often as I’d like,’ but last weekend, it seems the 29-year-old headed back to the UK to be with her husband –…

MUA MASTERCLASS International make-up artist and Max Factor ambassador Caroline Barnes explains that brides are mixing things up for 2017 . She says: ‘We’re seeing a lot of three-dimensional peachy-bronzed skin that catches the light as you move, paired with a soft brown matte eyeshadow, lots of lashes and a matte berry lip. It’s quite contemporary, but the contrast of texture works. Whether you’re going for this year’s trend or playing it safe, these are my ultimate beauty rules…’ DO • DO choose blush shades that look natural against your skintone. PALE/MEDIUM – Cooler pinks, so your face looks really fresh. This will make your teeth and the whites of your eyes look brighter, too. TANNED/OLIVE – Coral pinks will complement the warmth in your skintone. DARK/WARM – You’re in…

3 - 6 MONTHS BEFORE I started my health and fitness plan (clean eating and good skin go hand-in-hand) and started using Skinade [£105 for a 30-day supply] every day, either after my workout or before bedtime. I also added a Dermapen treatment to my routine (about twice a week) to tighten my skin. With a four-week break in between, I continued this in the lead-up to the wedding. 1-3 MONTHS BEFORE I began taking Super Elixir With Caddy [300g, £96] every morning. I also switched my Dermapen treatment for mesotherapy, which focuses on skin hydration and brightening, as well as using GLAMGLOW ThirstyMud Treatment [£39] twice a week. I then started applying Time Bomb Peel & Reveal [£48] before bed, twice a week. 1-2 WEEKS BEFORE My skin was…

REVEAL YOUR BRIGHTEST, BEST SMILE EVER! YOU’RE WELCOME Shhh…. We’ve got something sneaky to admit. Our bright-white selfie smile isn’t the work of a filter; no, it’s all real – and we’re going to tell you our secret. Pearl Drops Instant Natural White is our new wonder product thanks to its special ingredient: charcoal. The magic substance works to detoxify your mouth and eliminate impurities, but it also supercharges stain removal. In fact, we noticed a difference after just one use and we’re told it’s down to ‘optical brighteners’. Either way, it’s making us picture perfect and we’re loving it. Plus, 77 per cent of the ingredients are all natural. Ready, set, smile!…

DUCHESS KATE Some say that Kate has a penchant for Jack Daniel’s, but her preferred aperitif is the irreverently named Crack Baby, which was reportedly served at her own wedding reception. INGREDIENTS • P assion fruit vodka • Champagne • Orange peel to garnish METHOD Add chilled passion fruit vodka to a chilled glass. Top with chilled champagne. Garnish with a thin strip of orange zest. THE PARTY PRINCES Princes Harry, William and Charles have fairly simple tastes when it comes to drinks. In the absence of a Mahiki Treasure Chest, Wills opts for a pint of Stella Artois or a sambuca shot (classy), and Harry keeps it straight with Ciroc vodka. Meanwhile, Charles stays firmly in the early 2000 s with a classic gin and vermouth dry martini. Here’s…

1 The Shoes Prada did a £ 500 version, but everyone’s wearing Primark’s £8 mules. How will they fare in in-betweeny weather? The style ensures you won’t get wet toes in the rain, nor sweaty feet in the heat. Simple. 2 The Sunnies Think Frenchie from Grease. Think 90 s. Think retro. Think all of the above at once, and you’re looking at the coolest cat-eye update so far. Sun not playing ball? Hook your shades onto your tee and wait until it makes a comeback, stud. 3 The Skirt You know how jeans work with literally everything? Well, so does the skirt counterpart. Layer up with a velvet blazer and pumps, or keep cool in a classic linen shirt, statement shades (see above) and gladiator sandals. Cost-per-wear = no-brainer.…

One minute, you’re a glamorous TV star with a heart of charity-do-gooder gold and the hair of a goddess. The next, you’re the girlfriend of the man fourth in line to the British throne. No, this isn’t the premise for E L James’s next trilogy; this is the real-life story of Meghan Markle – Prince Harry’s partner in life and love, and our very own style purveyor. And now, as the world shifts its focus to the quaint country village of Englefield for the wedding of Pippa Middleton (sister to Kate, Duchess of Cambridge – the wife of Harry’s brother Prince William) wedding, we instead turn our attention to you, darling Meghan, to carry with you all of our sartorial hopes. Poor, poor Kate. It’s not her fault she’s forced…

Since Beauty Pie launched late last year, it’s been one of the most buzzed-about beauty brands around. Why? Because it’s revolutionised the way we buy beauty! Now, Beauty Pie’s launched skincare – and it’s already selling out. Because when you can get a £100 moisturiser for just over a tenner, it’s hard not to buy it! The top sellers? Beauty Pie’s Plantastic MicroPeeling Super Drops, (£6.69 for members) sold out in just six hours, with the Uber Youth Super Serum (£7.71 for members) selling out in 24 hours.

'I’d never really considered buying a high street wedding dress, but this has changed everything. Sure, it felt good to wear a dress worth almost £1,000, but I can’t say it seemed much different to when I tried on the high-street versions. I felt just as princessy (is that a word?), but equally way less worried about being able to afford to eat for the rest of the year. Each high street brand has clearly taken every detail (no matter how tiny) into consideration, too – the gems, the hemlines, the fit, the material, everything. I can safely say saving for a couture number is off the cards. Not that I’ve been doing that. And definitely not since I was 15. Honest. Also, just think of the regular clothes you…

I fell into wedding planning accidentally. Events were part of my job, so I started to become the person my friends would come to when their venue pulled out or their caterer fell through. When I went on maternity leave, I suddenly realised that I could navigate these minefields for them. About 80 per cent of the couples come to me via a recommendation, but they don’t always know what they need. Some want help with just the reception; some come to me with suppliers or a venue already and I work with that. If I don’t click with a client, I won’t plan their wedding. We’ll be working together closely so we have to get on. My average costs are 10 per cent of your budget, so a budget…

THE Demure Debutante Wedding Guest Would-Be: Blake Lively Daily Dress Code: You know those people who are perfectly preened, with clothes pressed to perfection at all times? That’s you. You tend to stick to soft shades like white and pink, while you’re rarely spotted in anything but a dress, obvs. Toasting Tipple: Champers, darling. Go-To Gift: A glass trinket box. Simple but chic. Dream Dancefloor Anthem: Somewhere Over The Rainbow. What? Slow dancing’s sweet! THE Show-Stealer Wedding Guest Would-Be: Solange Daily Dress Code: Much like Solange, you’re not afraid to stand out from the crowd. Bright colours and bold prints make up most of your wardrobe and you’ll wear them wherever you go. Because blending in is, like, so boring. Toasting Tipple: The craziest cocktail on the menu. #Yolo.

Bring on the next bank holiday shenanigans and the freedom to go bare-legged again with every. single.outfit. Aside from making summer plans, the change of seasons is when you really need to rethink your make-up game. What if one product could combine your concealer, primer and foundation? Well, it exists – and once you’ve tried MaxFactor’s No.1 bestselling foundation, Facefinity All Day Flawless 3 in 1 Foundation* , £12.99, you’ll just wish you’d done it sooner. One layer and everything looks uniform and utterly flawless. Its super-intelligent formula literally does it all, meaning you can free up more space in your make-up bag and hit snooze for a little bit longer in the morning. It’ll conceal any imperfections like a pro, fix an uneven skin tone and deliver an instantly…

Out of the 25 most pinned wedding dresses on Pinterest last year, 56 per cent were sleeveless.

HI DAVID, WE CAN’T WAIT FOR SERIES TWO! WHAT’S BEEN CHALLENGING? Normally brides will bring their mum or friends, but for some reason they bring their mother-in-law too. That’s a challenge; we have the mother vs themother-in-law! We get a lot of tears. WHAT TYPE OF DRESS DO YOU THINK PIPPA MIDDLETON WILL WEAR? I see her in a scoop neck with long lace sleeves and lots of chiffon. It’s an English wedding, so something very pretty and soft. MEGHAN AND HARRY COULD BE THE NEXT IN LINE FOR A WEDDING… She’s sexy, but you have to think about the venue. It might be a registry office because she’s been married before, so you could do a fab fitted cream suit, and for the party afterwards, a hot siren dress.…

The 70th Cannes Film Festival will descend on the south of France from 17-28 May. To celebrate, here’s our round-up of the three movies we can’t wait to see… THE BEGUILED Based on the novel and starring Nicole Kidman, Colin Farrell, Kirsten Dunst and Elle Fanning, The Beguiled tells the story of a soldier who arrives at a female boarding school during the US Civil War.
