Well, ladies, after five days, countless shows and approximately 112 glasses of prosecco, not only did the Look team survive London Fashion Week, but we poured what little energy we had left into creating the only LFW round-up you need. From Topshop’s runway rebirth (p8) to the SS18 looks you can wear now, you’ll find them all across 23 pages. And rather than gushing over the LFW celebs, we’ve focused on the unsung heroes. For example, next season we’ll all be channelling Little Britain’s Vicky Pollard – yes, her trackies have inspired the designers. Don’t believe me? Turn to p16. Talking of heroes, our Deputy Beauty Editor @chloeburcham has revealed the under-the-radar foundation that’s given her a complexion that’d make Rosie HW well jel (p28). And finally, I want to…

“She’s not retiring to be an idle princess” In the Look office, any news surrounding Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s engagement always creates a lot of excitement. We’ve always had a soft spot for Megs, and we’ve fancied Prince Harry, 33, for yonks. So, when we heard they’d reportedly taken the next big step, we were buzzing. Yep, according to an exclusive royal insider, Meghan is heading for the UK – permanently! According to reports, 36-year-old Meghan has returned her leased £40k Audi several months early, suggesting she’s making a move to the UK. We’d like to say there’s a chance of bumping into Meghan in Zara and getting a selfie but, as her Suits co-star Patrick J Adams reminded us last week (after he posted then deleted an image…

OLIVIA PALERMO OP can do no wrong, so when she steps out in high street, it’s basically a buy-or-die situation. Topshop’s hanky hem skirt is no exception. ISKRA LAWRENCE She’s got it all: the face, the body, the personality. And apparently the shoedrobe, too. Iskra’s thigh-high booties are the type to stop traffic. Your cash flow, meanwhile, will be business as usual… L I L A H PARSONS There’s something about florals that never gets old. There’s also something about a thigh split that makes them even better. Lilah knows the score with this H&M wonder frock. MEGAN ELLABY We’re all for versatility, and Megan’s tartan cami dress comes with endless styling potential. Follow her lead and wear over jeans, or go bare-legged and team with black strappy heels. Love.…

The poppy is a powerful little petal – both symbolic and aesthetically pleasing. It represents peace and remembrance, but also beauty and success. Which brings us to our next point. Taking its cue from the catwalk, poppies are officially the floral of fall, and they’ve never looked better. Everyone from Simone Rocha to Gucci did it on the runway, and now the high street has followed suit. Take Topshop Boutique’s hanky hem dress – we’ll be wearing ours with black ankle boots and a fur stole (faux, obvs) come party season, but it’ll look just as good with Converse and a denim jacket for now. How about Zara’s jeans? Dress up with a white Victoriana blouse and court heels, or follow the laid-back lead with loafers and a tee. Whatev…

“I didn’t want to be an actress when I was younger – it’s very cliché when you grew up in LA” As stylish red-carpet ladies go, Elizabeth Olsen is right up there. Not only is the 28-year-old actress storming through Hollywood with roles in the likes of Captain America: Civil War and The Avengers, she’s also been lauded for her smaller parts in flicks like Very Good Girls (see it) and thriller Wind River (where she plays a tough FBI Agent). There are whispers about award nods for her role in upcoming film Ingrid Goes West, where she plays a social-media stalker who integrates herself into the life of an Instagram star. #Millennial. Elizabeth is polished and precise. Offering considered replies, her reserve comes from a lifetime of experience watching…

 Think you can’t work all things opulent into your bedroom? Think again. Look influencer Lilah Parsons shows us how to champion this rich yet comfortable boudoir trend, using pieces from Dunelm’s fabulous new Colonial Charm collection. Think super-luxe textures, metallic accents and a truly decadent colour palette. Basically, it’s all the #bedroomgoals… “I DRESS MY BED WITH PLENTY OF CUSHIONS, AND IN WINTER ADD IN A COSY THROW...” What draws you to this collection, Lilah? Colonial Charm’s rich, dark colours are so on-trend right now. I love mixing peacock blues with metallics and gorgeous, velvety textiles that have a really luxurious feel. It’s modern without being over the top. How do you like to style up your bed? I dress my bed with plenty of cushions. In winter I’ll add…

IT’s A Dog’s Life As if we’re not loving/ totally creeped out by the reinvention of the horror film, the pug imitation has arrived (in trailer form). It’s confusingly creepy and cute at the same time. 1 Product = 1 Donation Buy selected Superdrug items from the likes of Oral B, Aussie Hair and Pantene until 17 October, and you’ll be making a donation to Marie Curie and funding hours of hospice care.

“Johnny has brought stability to her life” When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie announced their separation this time last year, we were in denial. This is Brangelina we’re talking about. Fast-forward 12 months and there’s a glimmer of hope. As Look previously reported, they seemed to be getting on well, after what appeared to be a messy divorce battle earlier this year. So imagine our disappointment when we heard from an exclusive source that there could be someone in the way of the pair rebuilding their relationship. According to a close source, old pal and fellow actor Johnny Depp – who hit the headlines last week following reports of a financial dispute – is back in Ange’s life and supporting her through the on-going divorce. ‘Johnny and Ange have become…

She’s been modelling since she was 15, has legs for days, and a pout we’d kill for. Who better, then, to design a collection spanning underwear, swimwear, activewear and sleepwear? We’re talking about new mama Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, naturally, who’s spearheaded the Rosie for Autograph line since 2012. In that time, the brand has expanded into make-up and fragrance, while the garments have gone from strength to strength. The proof lies in its latest lingerie offering, featuring a bounty of sumptuous silk sets in a palette of deep berry and champagne tones, finished with a flurry of handcrafted French lace. Speaking of her inspiration, Rosie exclusively tells us: ‘When the collection first launched, I visited my favourite vintage shops to find pictures and patterns. This part of the process hasn’t changed…

BURBERRY STARTER KIT Burberry constantly sets the LFW benchmark, and this season was no different. With traditional tweeds and chunky Fair Isle knits aplenty, the show was deeply rooted in British heritage. Sleeveless sweaters juxtaposed with sheer skirts, woollen socks worn with strappy heels, and chandelier earrings paired with baseball caps sum up the eclectic styling mood. Take the look home right now with these key buys… ACID SEQUINS Fashion is fun. Fact. So, when we saw acid sequins on every catwalk from Temperley to Preen, we took it as our cue to get involved. If head-to-toe sparkles are too extra for you, try this bomber with a white tee and boyfriend jeans. SHAPE SHIFTER Round round, baby, round round… The Sugababes called it first – circular bags are where…

outer corners of your lips with the same darker lip liner. • Use a lighter colour to fill in the centre of your lips and blend with the darker shade to create a gradient. • For extra definition on your top lip, use a highlighter on the centre of your Cupid’s bow. • Finish your look with a slick of glossy lipstick. • Choose a liner that’s a bit darker than your lip colour – it will accentuate the shape. • Make an ‘X’ at your Cupid’s bow and apply liner just outside the point where your natural lip line meets the skin, then fill in the…

WHAT ARE LIP FILLERS? ‘Lip fillers are collagen or hyaluronic acid (HA), which is injected into the lip area to increase volume and the size of the lip. Achieving the look you want won’t necessarily happen overnight. If you have very thin lips and want to achieve a very full but natural look, this can take a few sessions.’ ARE LIP FILLERS PERMANENT? ‘Hyaluronic acid fillers aren’t permanent and will break down over time. The length of time varies, but most people need top-ups every four-to-six months to keep up the desired size. HA acid fillers can also be removed with an enzyme called hyaluronidase before they naturally dissolve.’ WHERE CAN YOU GET FILLERS? ‘Although they’re non-surgical , dermal fillers are still an invasive medical procedure and should be…

VICKY POLLARD CALLED, SHE WANTS HER TRACKSUIT BACK… Yes, our fave Little Britain character is back – only not on our screens. Vicky’s iconic silky track sets were spotted all over the catwalk, and when the likes of Peter Pilotto and Emporio Armani speak, the high street takes note. Whether you go for a full-on co-ord or separates, the way to wear is sleek. Think barely-there make-up, undone hair and paired-back accessories. Scrunchie and lip liner not advised. CAT-WALK CRAZE Anya Hindmarch’s bags always cause a riot on the runway, and her SS18 offering is just as iconic – but for a whole other reason entirely. Calling all cat ladies, ’cause Anya’s new It bag features a majorly adorable ginger moggy. We haven’t been this excited since discovering Grumpy Cat,…

GLOSSY SKIN Our obsession with sheen is set to continue into next spring, with the look trending all over the catwalks. GLITTER GOALS Things are going to get messy come March, as nearly every designer showcased some form of sparkle – lips, lids and even on lashes. Glitter pots at the ready. FUTURISTIC FRENCHIE Giving the classic white tip a modern look for spring/summer, both Ralph & Russo and Fyodor Golan tipped their models’ manis with silver lines. GOLDEN-HOUR SKIN The Preen models had deliciously glowing skin, created by the wizards at St. Tropez. They started by applying their Tan Enhancing Moisturiser, £ 10 , then buffing on a light layer of Instant Tan, £ 10 , and topping it off with Finishing Gloss, £ 12 , for a sheen…

Trust me. When it comes to foundation I’ve tried them all: BB creams, CC creams, matte powders, oil-free liquids, cushion compacts, stick foundations. If there’s one thing I’m always on the hunt for, it’s a perfect face base, because in my mind, once you’ve mastered your foundation, the rest is easy. And on my quest for the perfect ‘my skin but better’ make-up, I’ve had some real shockers along the way. Cakey under eyes, too much shine and tell-tale tide-marks… You name it, I’ve had it! But you’ll be happy to know that those beauty blunders are now a thing of the past, because I’ve found the perfect foundation. And it’s only fair that I share my secret with you… What is it you ask? Well, it’s the It Cosmetics…

‘My style is super relaxed. Pass me a pair of boots over heels any day…’ Chelsea boots – they’re a wardrobe staple we can’t live without. So when we heard that quality bootmaker Timberland had launched its own version,Venice Park, we couldn’t wait to try them on. It’s not hard to see why this style never goes out of fashion – they look chic worn with everything from jeans to dresses and anything in between. One fan is Look influencer and Scottish model Emma Louise Connolly, whose style we predict you’ll be crushing on too. We love how she’s teamed blue suede #VenicePark boots with frayed jeans, a soft biker and a cool Fedora. Navy not your thing? There are six colours to choose from and, trust us, they’re an…

“You’re like, really pretty” “The limit of make-up brushes does not exist...” “You go, Glenn Coco” What are YOU doing this October 3rd? *eye roll* OBVIOUSLY, you are (like us) donning a pink sweater and celebrating ‘Mean Girls Day’ – ‘he asked me what day it was’ – and what better way to rep Regina George style than with your very own Burn Book, courtesy of Spectrum Collections. Officially THE accessory to be rocking this season, the Spectrum Collections collab with Mean Girls features an oh-so-collectable range of pink make-up brushes featuring great lines from the movie, all housed in a Burn Book case, which (wait for it) doubles as a totally fetch handbag. Adding to Spectrum Collections’ range of vegan and cruelty-free products, we think it’s…
