TRACEE ELLIS ROSS Best Actress, TV Series ‘This is for all of the women, women of colour and colourful people, whose stories, ideas and thoughts are not always considered worthy and valid and important. But I want you to know that I see you – we see you.’ CLAIRE FOY Best Actress, TV Drama ‘I really wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for some extraordinary women. I’m going to thank them. One is Queen Elizabeth II – she’s been at the centre of the world for the past 63 years and I think the world could do with a few more women at the centre of it, if you ask me.’ RYAN GOSLING Best Actor, Musical/Comedy ‘While I was singing and dancing and playing piano and having one of the…

It’s often said that fashion is a young person’s game. Trends are but a fleeting phenomenon, the pace is relentless. How, then, do you explain the 132-year-old force still managing to create classic, well-made, utterly irresistible clothes that undoubtedly appeal to just about every age group? That force is, of course, Marks & Spencer, which, after announcing it was closing stores at the end of last year, has bounced back with a spring/summer collection that’s so good we can’t stop looking at it. There are some serious showstoppers: chinoiserie silk tops tie at the waist while billowing midi skirts look hand-painted. A gingham ruffle skirt promises to be a sellout (it’s not dissimilar to the Monki version we spotted on almost every Insta blogger), a fuchsia dress with trumpet sleeves…

“She’s still incredibly angry at what’s happened” It’s been a whirlwind few months for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Following their separation in September, the pair are currently starring in Hollywood’s most talked-about divorce, have been at the centre of allegations and speculation and fought a bitter custody battle over their six children. But while the storm hasn’t cleared just yet, it seems the pair have finally reached some sort of agreement. In a statement released last week, Angelina, 41, and Brad, 53, agreed to handle their divorce privately, ensuring all court documents remain confidential and enlisting a private judge after Ange publicly 'blindsided’ Brad on 20 September by serving him divorce papers. But while the couple – who were together for 12 years and married for two – have…

mood-lifting YELLOW You don’t need a PhD to know that yellow is synonymous with all things happy. It’s basically Berocca in clothing form – wear it and not even a parking ticket could put a downer on your day. Being a total spotlight stealer, it’s no wonder yellow’s fast become the street style hue of choice. go get ’em RED If you thought rocking red lippie made you more confident, just think how powerful you’ll feel when you step out in top-to-toe scarlet. It’s also the perfect hue to wear to a job interview as it instantly portrays you as the strong, risk-taking lady you are. You got this. LUXED-UP LILAC Formally relegated to our pre-teen bedrooms, violet is having a major moment RN, mainly because it dominated the SS…

1 Stop contouring with bronzer We know it’s tempting, but bronzers actually have orange undertones and are not meant for chiselling your cheeks. So put the terracotta colours down and opt for a shade that mimics more of a shadow. We love Illamasqua Powder Blusher in Disobey, £ 22 2 Master the feline flick It sounds odd but creating the purrfect cat eye calls for dental floss. Simply coat it with a nude lip liner and hold it taut from your lower lash line to the outer corner of your eyes. Then trace the subtle print with black liner. Genius. Look for Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, £ 16 3 Learn to layer skincare Don’t just slather on skincare and hope for the best – layer from light to heavy.…

1 Give yourself a worry budget Give yourself a ‘budget’ of 10 worries a day. Rationing your worries will make you realise that fretting doesn’t make you feel better or solve anything –taking action does. 2 Say ‘I don’t’ instead of ‘I can’t’ ‘I can’t’ suggests a limitation, whereas ‘I don’t’ suggests a choice. Saying ‘I don’t have arguments’ is much stronger than ‘I can’t deal with arguments.’ 3 Do something you’ll be rubbish at If there’s a talent you’re sure you don’t have, then try it. Terrified of spinning? Sign up for a class. Can’t carry a tune? Join a choir. Force yourself to face your limitations and you’ll be surprised at the positive effect it can have. You won’t be great at everything, but remember and accept that…

THE PERFECT PARKA It might be an oldie, but boy is this still a goodie. As Kate Bosworth shows, the key to pulling off a parka lies both in the length and the trim. Opt for styles that fall just above the knee with furry detail in darker hues – it looks super-luxe. Teamed with classic skinnies and patent ankle boots, this combo laughs in the face of wind, rain and even snow. Preppy Pencils We’d never considered a bouclé pencil skirt until we clocked Karlie Kloss in Dior. This chic buy is so cosy you could even forego tights, although it looks great either way. Try with pointed courts and a silky blouse or cami to sex it up – and say hello to your new desk-to-dinner outfit. HOORAY…

VERSACE’S SILVER EYE ACCESSORY ‘One of the easiest tricks for faking wider, brighter peepers was the statement look on models at Versace SS17. A shimmering silver was applied to the inner corners of the eyes to make them pop. This was paired with peachy skin and a nude matte lip.’ MAKE IT WORK (IRL*) 1 Curl your lashes and add a coat of mascara, then apply a silver pencil to the inner corners of the eyes. 2 Lightly press a nude colour onto your lips for a softly stained matte finish. 3 Comb brows through and hold in place with a clear gel. 4 Gently sweep blusher across the tops of the cheekbones. *In Real Life THE VERDICT ‘IT’S SO EASY TO RE-CREATE’ ‘This is a silver spin on my…

And Another Thing… iPhone users might be about to get a new Apple update that includes a Theatre Mode, which could turn off sounds, disable communication and dim the screen so you can check your phone in the cinema. While it’s only reportedly being trialled, we’re not keen. You can turn off your phone for two hours and still survive guys, c’mon.

Chances are you’ve already heard of the much-hyped phenomenon that is 'hygge’ (pronounced hoo-gah) but, in case you’re totally unaware, let us bring you up to speed. It’s a Danish word that has no direct translation in the English language but basically sums up a mood of making everyday things more meaningful or beautiful. It’s a blissful state of being, which alludes to being completely snug and content. Sounds nice, huh? Although it may be a hard concept to put into words (the closest we have at our disposal is 'cosy’), as far as fashion’s concerned, its purpose reads loud and clear. Love it or hate it, since this Scandi export swept the nation, the high street’s followed with a bounty of toasty treasures. Think faux fur stoles, woolly coats,…

“Andrew’s been supportive and is incredibly proud” “This is a film for dreamers. I think that hope and creativity are two of the most important things in the world… So to any creative person who’s had a door slammed in their face, or anybody anywhere really that feels like giving up sometimes and finds it in them to get up and keep moving forward, I share this with you.’ Emma Stone’s emotional speech as she accepted the Golden Globe for Best Actress In A Musical/Comedy for La La Land last week was enough to have us weeping at our desks. And the film, which is showing at cinemas now, is a must-see. But while witty, talented Emma, 28, is reportedly shocked to have won (er, we saw it coming, Em),…

“I panicked when I saw Tina at the read-through” This is set to be Michelle Keegan’s year. With a career on the verge of going stratospheric, we have an inkling that MK’s about to own it – big time. Michelle is currently working her magic on the small screen, with ITV’s new three-part drama series Tina And Bobby (Friday, 9pm). Joined by Lorne MacFadyen (The Level, Grantchester) the duo play the original 'golden couple’. When England won the World Cup in July 1966, Bobby Moore became a national hero. Swept up by the media frenzy and the country’s adoration, he and wife Tina became celebrity royalty and ITV’s bound-to-be-a-hit show charts the couple’s rise from humble childhood sweethearts to the dizzy heights of superstardom. There’s certainly a similarity to Mich’s…

Train Smart ‘As kids, we played outdoors and led a simple, active existence; everyone plays sports regularly and that runs right through to adulthood. I pursue a variety of exercise: a yoga class each week, three or four weights sessions and a cardio session, plus regular stretching. I’m not aiming for ‘shredded abs’ but rather a healthy heart, a strong body and a sustainable mindset. I’m a big fan of mindfulness and deep breathing too. I’m not advocating hours of soul searching – that’s impractical. Just be aware of when you’re failing to breathe properly, when you’re slouched on your office chair, when you’re tense. Notice sounds and smells around you.’ Eat Well ‘In Sweden, we enjoy thousands of miles of coastline, so fresh fish is in abundance. Given how…
