Karlie Kloss Where? Arriving at Nice Airport for Cannes Film Festival. What She’s Wearing: Jimmy Choo’s £ 895 ‘Lockett’ bag, a cat-emblazoned Gucci jumper, Kurt Geiger’s £ 220 ‘Seine’ heels, Alice + Olivia’s £ 185 striped midi skirt and Paul Smith sunnies. Phew… Bridie Wilkins, Fashion News Assistant, says: If airport style was a game for people who care about clothes, Karlie Kloss just won. Big time. Sunnies for disguising tired eyes, air-con-friendly knit, comfy cotton skirt, chic lace-up heels, crease-proof jacket – she’s got all jet-setting bases covered. Clever Karlie.…

1 Bag Bella’s Couture Bella Hadid ruled the red carpet in a Cavalli Couture gown. We can probably all agree she looks fab, and we can definitely all agree that this Butterfly by Matthew Williamson dress is a dazzler of a doppelgänger. Thank YOU, Debenhams. 2 Blake’s Chanel Shades She sent the world’s media into meltdown with her outfits and the first glimpses of her baby bump, but it’s Blake Lively’s pearl sunnies that have got us in a spin. Thankfully, Etsy has heaps of embellished specs to make you feel a million dollars. 3 Freida’s High Street Hit We already know that Kurt Geiger has an A-list following to rival even the Cannes red carpet, but Freida Pinto has made us fall for the brand’s classic Sharkie shoe all…

As far as prints go, none have proved more stylish than the mighty Breton stripe. Loved by those oh-so perfect French girls, the simple design has cemented itself as the ultimate wardrobe staple, having become an off-duty way of life for most. The Breton top has come our sartorial rescue many times, so we were excited to discover a new way to wear it – in dress form! Worn by red-carpet regulars and social-media mavens alike, this frock is fast becoming a summer must-have. The high street is already on it, with countless styles to choose from. But if you fancy treating yourself to a showy number, we recommend this beaut lace-up number from, you guessed it, French label Maje – your inner Parisienne will thank you for it. Pair…

‘While there are some styles I would definitely avoid, I do enjoy the idea of a long-sleeved body with a micro-pleat midi skirt and flatforms by day, and an off-the-shoulder onesie with wide-leg trousers and sky-high heels by night. Oddly specific, I know, but try it and you’ll see what I mean.’ Hannah Banks-Walker, Fashion News Writer ‘However hard I try, I just can’t shake the feeling that I should only ever wear a body in a private personal training class with Mr Motivator. Read: never. Sure, I like the illusion of a perfectly tucked-in top, but this is one trend I’ll be skipping. Just imagine how much longer loo trips would be…’ Maxine Eggenberger, Senior Fashion News Writer…

Kylie & Tyga: IT'S OVER (But There Could Still Be Drama Ahead) Well, this is awkward.Not only have Kylie Jenner and her boyfriend, 26-year-old rapper Tyga (stands for Thank You God Always, just FYI), broken up, but it seems there could be more problems for the pair. ‘It’s no secret that Tyga’s had several financial issues over the past few years,’ says a friend of the couple. ‘And Kylie seems to have been bankrolling him at various points during their relationship. The issue is that she’s going to want that money back, which could cause several problems between them.’ Kylie, 18, and Tyga first got together at the end of 2014 and the rapper’s money problems have been well-documented. According to reports, he had his car repossessed after failing to…

Take The Plunge For one blissful week in July, my home will be on a boat in Greece #sorrynotsorry. I plan on spending most of it wearing this plunging number. OK, maybe sandals too. Gemma Wipe Right Remember when micellar water wasn't a thing? Me neither. And I’m not sure I want to either. Fuelling my apparent ‘micelles’ molecule obsession is No 7 – which this month launched its Beautiful Skin Micellar Cleansing Water for normal/ dry skin and one for (my) normal/oily skin. The latter contains zinc to regulate oil production, while sensitive types may prefer the multivitamin and mineral blend. Whatever your skin’s needs, this cleanser’s shot straight to the top of my kit list. Gilly H&M’s Wear-Anywhere Frock My wardrobe may already be packed to the rafters…

No surprise, then, that the line comprises of airbrushing powders, flash-worthy highlighters and lipstick brighteners. Insta make-up sorted. Kendall’s Party-Worthy Eye Palette Designed by Miss Jenner, The Edit Eyeshadow Palette, £ 36 , ticks off every trend from neutral hues to statement shades.

Yes! ‘I’D LIKE TO NURTURE MY PASSIONS’ Emma Firth, 25, is a writer from London 'Mum, I might not have kids, you know!’ This is rhetoric I regularly find myself voicing whenever the topic of my (hypothetical) childbearing comes up. I have a job I love, close friends, a great relationship – but 'marriage and babies’ has always been a big fat question mark. So the barrage of hateful tweets that Meghann received struck me as quite sad. The idea that maternity leave can in any way be perceived as a sort of grown-up gap year is worrisome. My sister, who is four months pregnant, is under no illusions that those 12 months off will be gruelling. But she also knows that it’ll be worth it in the end. And…

A browse through Irina Shayk’s CV and we realise just how far the former marketing student from Russia has come. In just 10 years she’s gone from swimwear model to Victoria’s Secret Angel to supermodel to actress. Oh, and don’t get us started on her Hollywood squad (she’s BFFs with Chrissy Teigen and PenŽlope Cruz, FYI) and, er, the small matter of the A-list’s most desired man, her beau Bradley Cooper, hanging off her arm for the past year or so. But modelling is still her first love and now she’s fronting the new campaign for Intimissimi – the lingerie brand that launched her career back in 2007. Naturally, we wanted all the gossip about her incredible life and luckily, she was most obliging… Hi Irina. How does it feel…

The Spanish emporium has long been one of the hottest haunts on the high street, but this week Zara outdid itself with an epic haul of summer must-haves chocka with could-be-designer buys, including a celeb-approved cover-up and the sandals every stylista owns. First, take a look at this calf-skimming embroidered jacket – a dead ringer for the Isabel Marant offering Alessandra Ambrosio and Cheryl have been rocking of late – at four per cent of the £2,105 price. And it’s versatile: skirts, trousers, cut-offs – sling this over the top of any ensemble and it’ll look infinitely cooler. Next up are the sandals top influencers have deemed the only style you need this summer – Hermès’s £425 Oran slides. Impossibly chic, it’s no wonder they’re dominating the Insta scene. We…

Oh, ASOS. How do we love thee? Let us count the ways. Actually, we won’t or we’ll be here all day. Suffice to say that the online shopping haven never fails to deliver on, well, just about everything. But even we were surprised by the brand’s latest revelation. According to ASOS HQ, there’s been a huge surge in sales of bodies recently. Yes, we mean leotards. Who knew? Apparently, sales have gone up a whopping 300 per cent compared to last year, with several styles selling out in record timing. No awkward tucking required. Best All-Rounder Is it a body? Is it a shirt? Actually it’s both, and it suits everyone. It’s a winner. Best If You’re Curvy Pair with high-waisted cigarette pants and courts for an office-appropriate outfit. Best…

“Kendall was really flirting with Leo and stayed by his side so his focus was on her” Swooping in on her private helicopter with her 'momager’ Kris following behind her, one thing was clear: Kendall Jenner planned to take the Cannes Film Festival by storm. And the 20-year-old supermodel didn’t disappoint. From the minute she touched down she was making back-to-back red carpet appearances and doing interviews. But it was when the work stopped that things got really interesting, as Kendall was spotted at the Vanity Fair party indulging in a major flirt-a-thon with bachelor of the moment and Rihanna’s latest squeeze Leonardo DiCaprio. Uh-oh. 'Kendall was really flirting with Leo,’ says a party insider. 'She seemed to find him very funny and stayed by Leo’s side so his focus…

‘How did I feel? Humiliated’ Nicola Thorp’s name might be familiar to you by now. The 27-year-old part-time receptionist and actress from London sparked a furious debate last week when she revealed that she was ordered to wear high heels by her previous employer. When Nicola turned up for work at accountancy firm PwC (via the agency she was hired by, Portico) she was told that her flat shoes were inappropriate and asked to go and buy a pair of smart 2-4in heels. 'It was my first day on the job and they said: “Go out and buy a pair of heels or we’ll send you home.” I was with a male colleague and I pointed out that he was wearing flat shoes. I told them that I thought I…

Matcha tea, green smoothie, kale with everything… scroll through your Instafeed on a Wednesday afternoon and you’ll be hard pressed to find a chocolate brownie in sight. Unless it’s dairy, wheat, sugar and gluten-free, obvs. But it’s a very different story come Friday night, when we swap our hardcore healthy lifestyles for a 'more is more’ approach. Junk food? Booze? Bring. It. On. Sure, last year may have been about celebrating our holier-than-thou clean eating image, but 2016 is giving way to the (dangerous) part-time dieters… A recent survey revealed that 83 per cent of women aged between 18 and 40 admit to bingeing on up to 3,000 calories each day over a weekend, with one in 10 of them consuming just 1,000 cals from Monday to Thursday. And it’s…

Brows are still big news, with the Delevingne effect still in full force. The eyebrow market is worth a whopping £ 20 m and in 2015 women admitted to spending £ 200 a year on brow products. So with that in mind, we thought we’d tell you about our fave brow boosters that we seriously can’t live without… Givenchy’s Sculpting Gel As a blonde I find it hard to pick a brow product that suits my colouring. Shades are often too orange or too grey – but Givenchy Mister Brow Filler in Blonde, £17.50, is perfect. The clever sculpted brush helps deposit the product on each and every hair, even the small ones, so my brows look groomed, thicker and super-natural. Gilly YSL’s All-In-One Palette I can’t believe Yves Saint…

1 Viviscal Gorgeous Growth Densifying Elixir Look’s Gabrielle: Zinc, keratin and biotin are the superfoods of the hair world and exactly what my overstyled tresses needed. After a few uses of this, my hair was the picture of perfect health. Anna: A fantastic all-rounder, this helped with growth, strength and volume, plus it left my hair shinier than it’s been in a while. It’s worth every penny for the money it will save you on salon treatments. 2 Philip Kingsley Trichotherapy Tricho Pro Volumizing Protein Spray Look’s Gabrielle: Packed with organic quinoa and essential amino acids that are vital for rebuilding damaged hair, this gave my mane some much-needed oomph. After a quick DIY blow-dry my strands felt like they just had a serious hit of…
