Olivia Palermo Where: Strutting her stylish stuff around New York City. What She’s Wearing: A £ 39.99 khaki shirt from Zara, slinky strides and £ 159 Pretty Loafers satin camouflage slippers. Maxine Eggenberger, Senior Fashion News Writer says: Oh Olivia, do you ever tire of being so perfect? I’m not gonna lie, it’s handy when your ultimate fashion crush can’t stop wearing high street. Not only can I afford her amazing outfits, I insist on buying every single one. And it looks like my bank balance is going to take an even bigger hit this month if her Coast collection ( p 10 ) is anything to go by.…

We’d like to say that when we first heard Olivia Palermo was fronting Coast’s new campaign, we managed to keep our cool. We’d like to say it, but it’s totally not what happened. What actually ensued was a lot of squealing, mixed with the sort of hysteria displayed by smitten teenage girls at a 1D concert. Consider OP the Harry Styles of this analogy and you’ll get the idea – it’s a big deal. Huge. As one of the most stylish women on the planet (that’s no exaggeration), Olivia’s got the sartorial Midas touch the rest of us could only admire from afar. Not any more, though, as she’s joined forces with Coast. Known across the land for stunning frocks, Olivia showcases a whole different side of the occasionwear outfitter.…

The Final Look…

L’Oréal has added even more shades to its cult True Match Foundation range. There are now a mammoth 23 shades to choose from! With familiar faces such as Cheryl, Katie Piper and Instafamous stars like Amena and Rosie Bea heading up the campaign, L’Oréal’s new shades vow to match every girl in the UK. So obviously we put it to the test… and we’ve got to admit, the team were seriously impressed! THE BEST OF THE REST…

We’re calling it: this is the season of the sleevage. Fluted, oversized or extra long – sleeves have been reinvented in every shape and form for AW16, fast becoming a firm outfit fixture on the street style circuit. The silhouette we’re losing sleep over? The exaggerated bell sleeve. Born on the Céline catwalk (where else?) the blown-up cuff has finally worked its way onto the high street too, with H&M nailing the oversized vibe like no other. A word of caution: they will make it harder to carry out everyday activities. Never before has washing our hands required such concentration and assistance from your colleagues. Fashion, eh?…

She’s Alexa Chung’s style icon and has one of the most famous bags of all time named after her, so you could say Jane Birkin knows a thing or two when it comes to style. A quick Google will undoubtedly result in an epic deep dive, so alluring are the effortlessly cool photographs of her in the 70s. And you might notice that in almost every picture, Jane’s carrying a straw basket as her handbag. Straw bags have been big news this summer (what Brexit?) but recently we’ve spied a whole army of babes rocking a rounded style with a top handle and handy lid, teamed with everything from holiday frocks to jeans and tees. Fash insiders are buying theirs from Blooming Dreamer and Insta’s @Janebirkinbasket, but we’ve also seen…

At 18, most of us were still figuring out our lives – in every capacity – but X Factor winner Louisa Johnson already has things pretty sorted. It’s eight months since her big win and she’s already featured on the hit Clean Bandit single Tears, she’s 'nearly finished’ recording her first album and she’s about to become Look’s online columnist for the next three months, revealing her fashion and beauty must-haves. After a trip to Hollywood to record her album (megaglam, right?) she’s in a good mood… Congrats on an amazing year, Louisa! How much has your life changed? It’s very different to how I expected it to be. Learning to write songs and finding out how the studio works was all new to me. I was quite nervous at…

Thanks to an army of A-listers (we’re talking the likes of Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid), stepping out in your loungewear is no longer the fashion faux pas it once was. Sporty inspired buys are dominating the high street, but no one’s nailing the vibe quite like F&F. With a bounty of super-affordable tops and bottoms to choose from, you can mix and match your off-duty uniform until your heart’s content. Of course, you’ll want everything – but, if you buy one thing, promise us it’ll be this grey bomber, OK? We don’t need to tell you that bomber jackets are HUGE this season, and this beauty is the best we’ve seen yet. Thanks to the easy to style grey hue, this jacket will go with way more than you…

PUSSY BOWS ARE (STILL) GO! We’ve made it our mission to dress like we’re starring in a Gucci campaign for the past few months. Naturally, the pussy bow has been at the heart of this endeavour, so it’s handy that it’s still a Big Deal for AW 16 . For after dark, Gucci’s still got it with velvet party frocks decorated with oversized, silk bows and coloured tights in contrasting hues. By day, channel Temperley London and opt for smart separates in a monochrome palette. You get extra points for a cape. MAKE MAXIS AUTUMN APPROPRIATE If, like us, you spent most of June/July/August striving to be a #Chloégirl, then this one’s for you. Those floor-sweeping maxis you bought ahead of your hol? Still good to go! Yep, Chloé taught…

1 Wear red lippie. Plump red lips mimic the widening of blood vessels that occur in sexual arousal, which subconsciously reminds the onlooker. 2 Pare it back. Studies have shown that women who wore 40 per cent fewer cosmetics were more attractive than others who’d piled it on. 3 Look after your locks. Shiny hair like Jourdan Dunn’s is symbolic of health and fertility and increases our facial attractiveness. Yay to good hair days for getting us laid! RULE 4 Create a Taylor Swift-style girl squad. The University of California found that individual faces seem more attractive when seen in a group over where they were shown on their own. Ahhh, now it makes sense! 5 Go easy on the selfies. Natural-looking pictures are shown to receive more swipe…

What Are Macros? Macros are nutrients that provide energy: carbs that fuel the body, proteins that build and repair muscle, and fats that keep you satisfied. Each macro contains a number of calories and, by balancing your carbs, protein and fats (macros), you’ll lose weight and tone up. Remember, though, not all calories are equal – your body will use 10 calories of fat completely differently to 10 calories of carbohydrates. So, how do you do it?

Will Young It’s a long time since Pop Idol (sorry to remind you, Will), but let’s not forget there was definitely some dancing going on in that show. Plus Will played the lead role in energetic musical Cabaret in 2013 and he’s got stage presence. Waltzing winner? Louise Redknapp Erm, Louise was in Eternal (a 90 s pop band,FYI millennials) and went on to score her own hits such as Naked – which is still a total tune, FYI. And with all that pop choreography, she’s clearly the next Abbey Clancy and we’ll be shocked if she doesn’t take home the Glitterball. Hot to foxtrot? Melvin Odoom Kiss host Melvin is a fave of ours and he’s not to be overlooked as he used to teach dance and drama before…

We’ve spent the summer lusting after those River Island frayed-hem jeans everyoneÕs been wearing. But now there’s something new that might just distract us from dreamy denim – the latest RI Studio collection. Every time the premium range appears before our eyes, we proclaim it to be the best yet. It just gets better and better. With beautifully tailored overcoats, graphic-print trouser suits, flattering ribbed knits and suede capes with luxe shearling trim, it’s like the chicest episode of Mad Men just collided with your dream wardrobe. In fact, the focus is on heritage pieces with a contemporary feel. Look no further than the bouclé skirt suit that will make you feel like Cher Horowitz as soon as you put it on. It’s glossy, grown-up and effortlessly stylish. It’s the…

Summer’s hot line-up of festivals may be coming to an end (sob!) but the celebs ensured V Festival went out with a seriously stylish bang, pulling out all the #ootd stops with their you-won’t-believe-they’rehigh-street buys. Whether you’re heading to another outdoor event on UK soil or simply want to embrace that festi feeling IRL, you no longer need consider wellies and khakis your only outfit options. At the V Festival weekend bash, the stars showcased suede jackets, cool kicks and even sparkly frocks – all from your fave affordable shopping hotspots. Proof you don’t need a celeb salary to look amazing on (or off) the field. MOLLIE KING Jacket, £45, Urban Outfitters Shorts, £45, Levi’s Shoes, £47.99, Converse at Office LOUISE THOMPSON Louise’s suede biker will see out the summer…

Giselle Wainwright, Acting Features & Entertainment Editor True Match Foundation Shade 1.5N “I was really surprised at how light and fresh this foundation looked on my skin. The colour matched my tone really nicely and left my face smooth and glowing. Really impressed with the overall result” Victoria Adegboyega, Senior Picture Researcher True Match Foundation Shade 8N “I find it hard to get the undertone of my base right when it’s winter – let alone in summer when I get a tan – so I usually stick to my trusted premium foundations. But I was so impressed by this, I’m making the switch full-time”…

If we were contestants on Mastermind, 'It’ bags would definitely be our specialist subject. The Chanel Chesterfield, Fendi Baguette, Mulberry Alexa – need we go on? Now, the latest style to be awarded cult status is Future Glory’s Rockwell grab bag. Toted by the likes of Fashion Me Now’s Lucy Williams, it’s gone straight to the top of our need/want/must-have-at-all-costs list. Made from the highest quality leather, the deconstructed silhouette and the iconic hoop handle cement its statement prowess and, if you buy before it goes mega, you’ll be a part of a very elite (and super-cool) club of owners. As far as designer arm candy goes, it’s a steal at £250. However, mighty M&S has come up with a brilliant dupe that’s slightly bigger than the Future Glory original.…

Fans of the nonchalant bun have upped their game and taken topknots to a new level, substituting hair ties for a metallic cuff. Yet another 90s throwback, the cage or cuff is a super-chic way to pimp your bun. Instagram’s finest are wild for an embellished bun, especially using Kardashian stylist Jen Atkin’s Chloe + Isabel creation (launching in the UK this October). Can’t wait ’til then? Here are three ways to work the trend right now… 1 Bun Bow Forget the OTT Lady Gaga bow – instead opt for a low bow, securing the centre with a gleaming cuff. 2 Messy Bun Pull hair into a large, messy knot at the crown. Pin with your trusty cuff, pulling strands loose for a laid-back feel. 3 Caged Hun Last season’s…

“LUKE CALLS PERRIE EVERY DAY AND HE SENDS HER LOADS OF PICS OF HIMSELF” So 2015 wasn’t that kind to Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards as her ex-fiancé Zayn Malik called time on their four-year romance, but 2016 is looking a whole helluva lot better – and it’s all thanks to one super- hot young actor. Yep, it was revealed recently that the 23-year-old singer had been spotted on a date with Luke Pasqualino, Michelle Keegan’s Our Girl co-star, and now friends say the 26-year-old is pulling out all the stops to woo Perrie. According to our insiders, the pair were introduced by a friend and were texting each other for two months before they enjoyed a trip to the theatre to watch Aladdin The Musical, followed by a spin…

‘A paint-splat or distressed effect helps amp up a pair of standard skinny jeans’ Moresha, size 14 NEW TREND ALERT • Long-line tunics layered over skinny jeans have become one of this season’s coolest combos and a shirt dress is the ideal tool to achieve this look. If your dress isn’t too long you could also try the Fash Pack’s fave new styling trick, which is leaving your shirt half untucked. ‘My signature style is quite casual, so this sporty layered combo is perfect for me’ Nina, size 8 LAYER U P • Even if it’s warm out you can still pile on the layers as a new, interesting way to wear your shirt dress. Just swap the knits for lighter layers like crochet, lace or soft chambray denim. It’s…

JUST-OUT-OF-BED RED WHERE TO WEAR IT: On your commute WHY IT WORKS: Minus the eye-catching red lip, this look is sublimely natural HOW TO DO IT 1 Rough-dry your hair and use tongs to curl random sections, so you create imperfect waves. Steer away from using too much product, so the hair is still soft to touch. 2 Keep your make-up natural by using a lightweight base. Smashbox Studio Skin Foundation is perfect as it’s really hydrating and not too heavy. 3 Line the lips and then apply your colour or blot on for a stain-like finish. 4 Finish with a light application of mascara and define your brows with a powder or pencil. FLUSHED & TOUSLED WHERE TO WEAR IT: On your next…

1 To figure out your macro ratio, work out your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) – the rate at which your body uses energy – then take into account your activity level. You can calculate this at If It Fits Your Macros (iifym.com), which will give you a daily calorie target that you can split between the three macronutrients. 2 If you’re working out regularly, carbs are essential for energy. At rest, the body utilises fat for fuel but switches to carbs during high-intensity exercise. So consume a higher fat and protein to carb ratio on rest days, and eat more carbs and protein on active days. 3 Sadly, you can’t binge on junk food just because it fits your macros! Clean, whole foods are key, but the best thing about…

KENZO X H&M’s Cult Frock We thought our KENZO x H&M excitement had reached fever pitch, but nothing prepared us for this. This uh-mazing dress is just one of the pieces we’ll be queuing for come 3 November and we’re already losing our cool over it. Soz, Balmain – you’ve been out-frocked. Keep up to date with all the Kenzo goings-on at Look.co.uk/Kenzo-HM CHANEL No 5? MORE LIKE CHANEL #1 Perfumes don’t come more iconic than Chanel No 5 and although our obsession with those little bottles of golden goodness goes way back, the label’s new scent is just as worthy of #shelfie status as its predecessor. Meet Chanel No 5 L’eau, the fresher, lighter and (dare we say it) more wearable incarnation of the much-loved…

From Rags To Rixo 4 Ways To Justify Your Buy… 1 I’m blaming professional coat hanger and Rixo fan Millie Mackintosh for my latest label crush. 2 Three-quarter-length capped sleeves, a low-buttoned V-neck and a skirt slit that offers just the right amount of waft makes this the most flattering dress of all time. 3 The cut is timeless enough for sensible types (me) and comes in an array of prints for more adventurous souls. 4 If in doubt, tell anyone and everyone Millie Mack made you do it. She won’t mind. Gilly Absolute Gems Your initial on a tote? Old news, apparently. Now, flaunting your birthstone for all to see is where it’s at. The easiest and most affordable way to get in on the action (those precious gems…

Blogger, daughter of David and the face of this year’s Curve Fashion Festival, Hayley Hasselhoff is a woman whose career operates on an international scale. Which makes the fact that she never misses a beat in the #ootd stakes all the more impressive. The 24-year-old star has rapidly made a name for herself in the fashionsphere thanks to her effortlessly cool outfits, which take her from plane to party in a flash. So who better to inspire our next city break capsule wardrobe? Hayley’s penchant for floaty separates and cute co-ords ensures she looks polished at all times. She’s also got the art of the unexpected yet super-comfy shoe down: tractor-tread flats with wide palazzo trousers? Inspired! Yep, this is a girl who knows how to travel in style. Handy,…

Tracksuits are one thing, hoodies another, but the latest sports luxe obsession is in a league of its own. Maybe it’s the Laura Trott fever that’s gripped the nation, or Kim K’s penchant for them – blame it on who you will, but cycling shorts are trending right now and we’re not sure how we feel about it. Of course, there’s the obvious advantage of wearing them underneath flyaway frocks (if Marilyn Monroe had thrown on a pair beneath that white dress of hers, it would’ve saved her a lot of drama). That’s not how the fash pack’s doing things, though. Instead of hiding them under layers of chiffon when gale force winds are forecast, they’re rocking theirs in full view of street style photogs. So are cycling shorts a…

If you thought pearls were only for the twinset types, think again. This season, fashion is embracing the kook – which basically means you can wear whatever you want and still be stylish (within reason). Case in point: the gobstopper jewels seen on (surprise, surprise) Gucci’s catwalk and more recently, the queen of cool herself Chloë Sevigny. Wear them layered over knits and vintage frocks or use them to enliven your classic off-duty combos (read: jeans and a tee). How’s that for a sartorial pearl of wisdom?…

“JEN’S EARNED £3,935 PER HOUR OVER THE LAST YEAR, EVEN WHILE SLEEPING” Jennifer Lawrence is probably walking around with a pretty big smile on her face this week. That’s because the 26-year-old actress has been revealed as the highest-paid actress of the past year, raking in £34 million according to the annual Forbes survey – the second time she’s clinched the top spot. This means that Jen’s earned £3,935 per hour over the last year, even while sleeping. That’s in large part thanks to her role as Katniss in The Hunger Games franchise as well as an advance for new flick Passengers due out later this year. *Round of applause* It comes less than a year after J-Law penned the essay: ‘Why Do I Make Less Than My Male Co-Stars?’…

Face Time To me, perfect skin is flawless but still looks like mine. That’s why I can’t stop raving about this new beaut base, which gives just enough coverage and lets my skin breathe. It’s a bargain, too. Lydia Rose Obsession I didn’t peg myself as a fan of rose- scented fragrances, but this has totally converted me. Inspired by an ancient Chinese rose found growing in Venice, it’s floral but fruity with undertones of vanilla, musk and amber. I can’t stop spritzing it. Chloe Matcha Mask Confession time: I can’t stand the taste of matcha, but a super-good-for-you matcha body mask? That I can get on board with. It’s packed with an intense hit of tea to restore an even skin tone, plus it ditches stress and improves focus.…

It’s packed with sweet almond oil and vitamin E, which keeps skin hydrated and looking young. And bronzing-wise it’s perfect for letting that Ibiza glow live on. Natalie: This smells like holidays, and the little gold flecks that were mixed into the moisturiser glided on to my skin and blended in to make my body all glowy. Plus, my actual tan lasted for weeks. In LOVE! BEST FOR: GLAM GIRLS 2 Lancaster Tan Maximiser Face and Body Cream LOOK’s Gabrielle: This contains Reinforced Tan Activator Complex, aka TAC, which was developed by beauty scientists to prolong a natural melanin release in the skin.
