Brand New Rosie Huntington Whiteley & Ryan Reynolds M&S Ads


Although Rosie Huntington Whiteley may not be the average M&S shopper (how many leggy blondes with enviable bodies do you see shopping in M&S or, let's face it, any high street?) we hope women will learn to love Marks and Spencer's new recruit as much as the men will.


Plus girls, Ryan Reynolds is pretty cute to look at, right? And on top of that, look how fab the clothes are! Lots of winter staples in there; we can't wait to have a good old browse when the collection hits stores.

New Images of Gisele for Esprit A/W 2011


We understand that sometimes people can forget Gisele Bunchen has a face. The video we showed you on Friday of Gisele in some saucy underwear indicated why. This is why we imagine Esprit have chosen to remind us that the richest supermodel in the world actually has a very beautiful face, making women worldwide green with jealousy that yes some people really can have it all. 



When we do see Ms Bundchen's body however, it's literally all covered up, proving that women don't have to get their kit off to be sexy. We'll be honest - we don't think Espirit have chosen the best of their collection for their adverts (at least, we hope a black turtle neck isn't the highlight). But, we are inclined to head over to their website and their stores to have a little nosey. That's the beauty of a powerful advert with a super-powerful woman fronting it. Job well done, Esprit.

Kate Moss For Liu Jo Autumn/Winter 2011



You may remember us gushing about Kate Moss's ad campaigns for Liu Jo for the Spring/Summer season and now it's time to gush all over again! Mossy has once again been snapped up to pose for the brand and we are once again loving what she's come out with. As if Kate Moss can really take a bad picture...



Nice job on the neutral and slightly haunting colour palette - it's amazing how much they still stand out and speak to us. This is what the Kate Moss/Mario Sorrenti dream team conjures up!

Katy Perry Covers US InStyle October


You're all probably aware that we have quite a soft spot for Katy Perry, so we always see anything she does through a slightly biased eye. However, we don't think you have to be a huge KP fan to realise that this is one hell of an awesome cover. This is the first time we've properly seen her newly dyed pink hair in a professional photograph and we have to say the end result is just as flawless as we thought it would be.


InStyle have given us yet another gorgeous cover and were love how they didn't take the autumn/winter theme too literately with the colour scheme and injected a splash of colour to it. The contrast of Katy's bright hair and the black Emanuel Ungaro dress, Louis Vuitton belt, nails and plain white background makes the cover all the more perfect and this is one of our favourite October covers we've seen so far. The editorial pics don't look too bad either!

Daily Style Crush: Amber Le Bon in Jonathan Saunders


Amber Le Bon attended the Diesel Loverdose fragrance launch party in London in a red and black Jonathan Saunders dress from the Autumn/Winter 2011 catwalk. She was bang on-trend in the dress stakes but also in the hair stakes as she had a very 'now' and youthful hair accessory: pink streaks. Dip dying is making a come-back, as is pink hair courtesy of Katy Perry and Glee's Dianna Agron so Amber blended the two trends into one with her very stylish look. 

Sometimes celebs can look older than their years in a bid to look classy (which we obviously prefer to the trashy look) but Amber avoided that with her style choices. Loving the wine colour right now, let's hope it gets translated into the High Street as well so we can stock up.

Catwalk catch-up: Chanel A/W 2011 RTW


Dark and sensual; that was the theme that Karl Lagerfeld ran with for the latest Chanel catwalk outing. The volcano which graced the runway was also a haunting touch which encapsulated the aura of the collection spectacularly. The show was chilling enough from the pictures, we can only imagine that sitting Front Row would have heightened the chill-factor even more. We would happily give a right arm to have witnessed the live action though. 

Still, it's nice to see Lagerfeld going with the theme of winter, which many designers have dismissed this season. Chanel went with the theme of ice last year which also screamed winter, but so did the volcano - it was anything but smoking hot. Grunge, oversized, man-size and neo-medieval are all words which complement the collection. The palette was predominantly dark and smokey, but were finely crafted and brilliantly put together.



Our one and only criticism? We absolutely love how some heels are being replaced with biker boots, but they are hugely disproportionate in relation to the legs of some of the models - perhaps skinny jeans and grunge boots aren't the best option when you have the figure of a runway model. Still, if we had the height of runway models, the inability to wear oversized boots wouldn't be the end of our world. 

Thank you uncle Karl for another fabulous collection; they just keep getting better!

Catwalk catch-up: John Galliano A/W 2011 RTW


The world of fashion is an unpredictable one, and this could well be the last time we are writing about the latest John Galliano collection, which is why we have decided to put it up in its entirety. That, and because we found it increasingly difficult to select only a few key pieces from the small range. Although there were only 20 looks in the collection, it was relatively diverse, and featured many of the Galliano styles that we have associated with him over the years, including his love of fur, slimline dresses and large and in charge headgear. 



The models strutted their stuff to the dulcet tones of Adele and Coldplay, denoting that the atmosphere was calm and mellow, which was probably a much needed change amidst the Galliano furore of the past week.
