Urban Outfitters’ Slogan Tee Statement tees are an off-duty essential this season, but they have to be snug-fitting with a retro 70 s feel. Stripes lend this Urban Outfitters one a Parisian vibe – I can’t wait to wear it with my indigo flares and those Uterqüe platforms over the page that Gemma has her eye on! Sarah Calvin Klein’s Mini ‘It’ Bags These cross-body cuties literally had my mouth watering when I saw them. The juicy fruit shades (bagsie the orange!) are perfect for spring and the price tag is totally doable for a designer buy that you’ll get mega cost-per-wear out of. Sold! Chloe Closet’s Deluxe Denim Dress Ah, the denim dress – a style staple that’s saved me from many a wardrobe dilemma. Closet’s version totally ups…

Sitting alongside heritage brands like Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger, Victoria Beckham is still a relatively new addition to the New York Fashion Week schedule. But boy, has she made her mark. In just eight years, she’s amassed a huge fanbase and her latest collection was all anyone could talk about on the (icy) streets of the Big Apple. With her family sitting FROW-side, Vic unveiled a luxe offering of bold stripes on bandeau dresses, figure-flattering pencil skirts, effortless tailoring and fierce footwear to boot. In fact, the shoes flooded our Insta feeds during the show as fashion’s elite gushed over the patent ankle boots and pointy flats. And with their wet-look ponytails and minimal make-up, VB’s model line-up was one of the coolest on the catwalks. Long live queen…

It’s official: we’ve fallen for Lilah Parsons. In a world full of 'It’ girls, she’s the one we want as our BFF. Catwalk model, TV presenter and now a bona fide fashion designer – is there anything she can’t do? Appaz not. We caught up with the Brit star to get a sneak peek of her new collection for Yumi, and we’re seriously impressed… Congrats on the new Yumi range, Lilah! Talk us through it… I’ve always loved French girls’ style, so I mixed that with retro 60s prints and silhouettes, with a major emphasis on red – it suits every skin tone and hair colour. I made endless mood boards and kept a sketchbook, which was a big throwback to my art school days. Who is the Yumi by…

“I LOVE TAYLOR” ‘I can’t comment on what she’s really like – she could be a total bitch behind the scenes. But I don’t care, because she’s so nice to her fans and when performing. She’s made it no longer cool to be a mean girl who’s unsupportive of other women and while that could be a clever ploy to sell records… well, those tunes are so good they sell themselves.’ “I’M OVER HER” ‘Sure, Taylor’s songs are pretty catchy and she can certainly pen a good lyric. But I still question her as a person and I find her kinda dull. She’s got the squad (and the bod), but there’s just no edge to her. I don’t believe anyone can really be that nice. I’d love to know what…

Gigi’s Morphed Men Gigi Hadid, Zayn Malik & Joe Jonas She definitely has a type… and that type dyes his hair pink (each to their own, Gigi.) Zayn, 23 ,debuted his new bleached barnet on Insta, but just a week before Joe, Gigi’s ex, had rocked a very similar ’do. And it’s not the first time the men have copied one another – they both own the same Kenzo jumper and apparently the same glasses. What’s next? Matching onesies? An Awkward Kisscam Moment Alicia Vikander & Michael Fassbender Props to BAFTA for embracing the Valentine’s theme, but if you blinked, you might have missed a very awkward encounter. Using their designated kiss cam – which had already seen action from the likes of Rebel Wilson snogging Eddie Izzard – it…

• What’s the weirdest gift you’ve been sent? Er, I can’t answer that one. • Fave Instagram filter? Willow – it’s everything. • Who are your top three people to follow online? My brother Frankie, Madonna and Jimmy Fallon. • What can you never leave the house without? My dog Strauss. He even came to the Lipsy shoot with me in LA. Stay tuned for his debut fashion appearance! • What do you love about London? The British accent and humour. Its kind of dry, like mine. • Can you explain what a ‘cheeky Nando’s’ is? Is this rude?! WIN! Want to go on a £1,000 Lipsy shopping spree? Head to Look.co.uk/ competitions…

1 CLASH YOUR CITRUS BRIGHTS Following in the fashionable footsteps of crimson and pink, the previously off-limits pairing of tangerine orange and zesty yellow is now all the rage. These fruity colours are two of SS16’s hottest hues, so we guarantee you’ll be rocking your yellow and orange buys all season long. 2 Make Your Bag A Double Act First clocked on the Fendi catwalk, doubling your cross-body bags is the new trick taking the fash pack by storm. Well, who are we to dispute the mighty Karl Lagerfeld? • Nail the vibe by sticking to similar shapes and by choosing complimentary colours that will work seamlessly when stacked together, like this rose gold and aqua combo. • Why not pop on a fluffy pompom keyring to up the designer…

The Superfood For My Mani If, like me, you struggle to grow your nails, get a little helping hand from Nails Inc Nail Grow Treatment, £15. It’s packed with green tea powder – AKA matcha – and microbeads filled with vitamins A & E, which burst when they hit the skin. I massage a little into my cuticles every day and now my flaky tips are no more. Samantha Erborian’s Skin-Plumping Miracle Mask The latest line from cult Korean skincare brand Erborian has been a saving grace for my winter skin.

It’s a smoothie for the skin and my new go-to when my face is…

Pimp Your Poloneck If anyone can revolutionise the way we wear a staple, it’s Kate Bosworth and Olivia Palermo. Kate shows us how to layer like a pro, teaming a graphic V-neck and patent skirt with her scarlet knit, while OP proves that summer co-ords can work in sub-zero temps. Go on, give your poloneck some credit – it’s anything but basic. Bag A Khaki Bomber Oh, Gigi Hadid. We love her as much for her off-duty model uniform as her turns on the catwalk and her take on this jacket has only helped our obsession grow. Instead of the usual bomber, jeans and tees combo, Gigi wore hers with a slip dress and lace-detail boots. So you can wear New Look’s version with just about anything – Gigi says…

Every so often a hairstyle becomes so major among the A-list that we all get a bit obsessed. Last summer we saw the rise of 'the hun’ (half-up bun), but a new pretty and practical ’do has taken centre stage. Cue the boxer braid: originally used as a way to control curly and Afro hair, the schoolgirl-cool style has been making its way through the stars and shows no sign of dying down. We saw it first on model Hailey Baldwin, then Kylie Jenner and Khloé Kardashian; even North West has been flaunting her baby boxer braids – cute! But it was Kim Kardashian who cemented it as the style of the moment when she stepped out with her braids at New York Fashion Week. It’s not just a street-chic…

“Zayn was just a bellend and I knew it” Forget chocolate, stop flirting with inappropriate men, delete Tinder… When you break up with a ‘bellend’ of a boyfriend, the one thing you need more than anything is your mates. And while our friends are pretty great, we’d totally ditch them if Cheryl Fernandez-Versini rocked up to help us through (sorry, guys.) We figured the X Factor judge would make an awesome break-up coach but this was all confirmed when Perrie Edwards, 22 , admitted Cheryl’s been helping her through her very public split with Zayn Malik. How? Plenty of heart-to-hearts, dinners and, of course, many a girlie night out. And it’s totally working. Not only has Perrie seen the light when it comes to Zayn, 22 (she recently admitted: ‘He…

“I was trying so hard to make it work just to prove everyone wrong” ‘Can you believe she’s taken him back?’ We’ve all received that text once. When one of your mates takes back the guy who cheated on her and broke her heart, it’s usually followed by secretive WhatsApp messages discussing why your amazing, beautiful friend would forgive a cheat. But what if you’re the person who’s willing to forgive and forget? And you know everyone is b*tching about your decision behind your back? If you’re shaking your head saying: 'I would never take him back,’ bear in mind various studies show that when it comes to infidelity we’re a nation of rubberbanders. In one study of 2,000 women, 28 per cent said they’d forgive a cheat, and in…

“I’llwear a colour pop to perk me up after a very hectic week!’’ FASHION WEEK PREPARATION Kate Andrews, Fashion Stylist I like to be super-organized when it comes fashion week, planning my daily outfits the week before. I’ve washed all my clothes using the new Limited Edition Fabric Care Collection designed by Giles Deacon inspiredbyBold& Lenor scents. Giles Deacon designed this collection to celebrate the emotional connectionwe have with our clothes and how scent in particular can make us feel.

Zanita Whittington, 305 k followers, was spotted in Kurt Geiger’s burgundy boots. They’re even in the sale as we speak, so go, go, go! Sofia Richie, 840 k followers, got her hands on a pair of Rihanna’s sold-out Puma creepers. We have it on good authority that they’ll be back in stock soon. Pernille Teisbaek, 310 k followers, wore gorgeous Gucci shoes. Thankfully, Topshop’s tributes give us all the pizzazz without the price tag. Genius!…

PDA! Boyf Calvin Harris joined Taylor and according to insiders the two of them put on a very loved-up display, with Calvin posting a cute couple pic and – shock – a kissing snap. Dancing! The group were apparently dancing around to Rihanna and throwing fake dollar bills in the air. Now that’s how you celebrate! Pitstop! The squad, including BFF Ellie Goulding and Haim arrive at Hyde Sunset Kitchen + Cocktails for Republic Records’ Grammys after-party. Taylor changed into a SS 16 Balmain outfit – not available in the shops yet. Sigh. Pouting! Posing with the squad, the girls were in full selfie mode at the after-parties. Perfect girl group album shot, guys!…

Sara offers her advice… • Remember, it’s not your life. Everyone has to learn from their mistakes and as a friend you have to let them. • Don’t turn your back on them. If they’re going back to someone who’s damaging they’ll need you more in the end. • But don’t keep quiet. Say: ‘I love you but I don’t agree with this,’ then try to be there for them in other ways. • Help them look at the bigger picture. My clients who stay with cheating men often feel stuck in their situation and I try to help them change their focus. AND IF YOU’RE THE GIRLFRIEND WHO’S TAKEN HIM BACK… • You need to understand that if your friends don’t like him then there’s obviously a reason for…

Get Shirty After being spotted at Christopher Kane’s SS16 show, technicolour lace has been hot on our radar this year. Why not copy the catwalk and inject the shades from your stripy lace shirt into the rest of your outfit too? • Dress this shirt down by layering it under a pair of dungarees. Sleek & Chic Turn your friends green with envy with this ivy-coloured dress by Mango. Go glam by working it with colourful courts and crystal jewellery for date night, or layer it under a tailored jacket to give it an office-appropriate twist. • Swap the elastic belt with one in a statement shade for a cool contrast. Cool Combo If this midi skirt and yoke blouse are anything to go by, ruffles and lace may just…

1 OGX B5 Weightless Oil Mist Look’s Sam: This spray really helped strengthen and repair my hair thanks to the vitamin-loaded formula. Plus, it was weightless and left my locks smelling fruity. Lia: My hair felt so soft after using this nourishing hair oil spray. The only downside was the rich formula made my hair a little greasy at the roots. 2 Kérastase Elixir Ultime Look’s Sam: After using this, my hair looked and felt thicker, while also giving it a gorgeous gloss. It was light enough to use as a finishing mist after I’d styled my hair for an extra shine hit too. Lia: This new beautifying mist made my locks ultra sleek and tamed all my flyaways. It was just a little too pricey…

“I PUT LOTS OF PRESSURE ON MYSELF. THIS YEAR IS MAKE OR BREAK FOR ME” Hi Lauren, you started out on Youtube, right? Sort of. My mum would follow me around with a camcorder when I started my first gigs and she encouraged me to put them online. By the time I released my first songs, I’d built up a following so when I launched my EP I knew there were people who’d listen to it. What have been your career highlights so far? I did a gig with Taylor Swift last year which was a big deal. [It was] a great moment. Selling out my first headline tour was also really cool. Which other muscians do you admire? I have a thing for girls who write their own songs…
