It’s a truth universally acknowledged that there are two things you can never have too many of… parties and shoes! We’ve found the best dance-all-night heels and flats (I love Topshop’s £28 pom-pom ones – perfect for showcasing my signature moves on the dancefloor). Let the good times roll!

Meet The Team Lucy Felton Head Of Fashion Content Gemma Yates Fashion News Editor Chloe Jackson Fashion Editor Lucie Clifford Fashion Stylist Kate Andrews Fashion Stylist Amy de Klerk Junior Fashion News Assistant Iris & Ink’s Beautiful Blouse I’m smitten with Iris & Ink’s silk blouse. It’s the perfect shade of pink (huge for next season) and the plush fabric means it looks great day or night. It’s brilliant for brightening up a winter sweater. I’ll be tucking it into high-waisted flared jeans and adding a gold pendant necklace. Kate The Hot Aussie Watch Import I’ve just discovered cool Aussie label Aark Collective and its classic, minimalist watches have won me over. You can choose from grey, pale pink or navy for something more subtle. Talk about wrist candy. Amy…

You don’t need us to tell you that choosing a wedding frock is the biggest dress decision you’ll ever make. And an expensive one at that. Now though, you don’t have to head to a designer boutique to find a knockout number for your big day. Needle & Thread, the glam label whose dresses have been worn by the likes of Heidi Klum, is launching a bridal range this month, and it is beyond amazing. Come on, even if you’re not about to walk down the aisle, we bet you can’t resist adding one of these beauties to your Pinterest board. But before you write off the intricate, jewel-encrusted, could-be-designer creations as being out of your price range, let us tell you that dresses start at just £105, with £850…

If there’s one thing Rihanna knows, it’s how to keep a secret. Over the past few weeks, the Barbadian singer has been teasing out some very cryptic clips for her long-awaited new album ANTI, set to drop this month. But it’s not just her music she’s been holding back. While the outwardly confident star, 27, appears poised to dominate the music scene again in 2016, she’s in fact been quietly battling some serious self-confidence issues which have left her feeling more isolated than ever. 'People have this image of me, of how crazy and wild I am,’ Rihanna said recently. 'The reality is that the fame, the rumours – this picture means this, another picture means that – it really freaks me out.’ It doesn’t sound like the Rihanna we…

Ellie & Dougie’s Shock ‘Split’ Ellie Goulding & Dougie Poynter Well we never saw this coming. Pop’s power couple have apparently cooled things off after two years. Major sad face. The surprise comes a month after the On My Mind singer revealed she was ready for marriage. ‘God, yes! I’m nearly 30 ,’ she said, while many friends had speculated the couple would be engaged by Christmas. ‘Ellie seemed ready for marriage in the near future,’ a source tells Look. ‘But Dougie didn’t feel ready to make that commitment just yet. I think he needs more time.’ While the poster couple, both 28 , are usually giving us Insta-envy with snaps of their date nights and his ’n’ her workout sessions, they haven’t been pictured together since the beginning of…

It’s Saturday night and Joanna*, 23, is swiping through her phone. 'Nope,’ 'Yes,’ 'Definitely,’ she shouts to Mark*, 24, who is sitting next to her, swigging a beer. It may look like a standard night in, 'playing’ Tinder with mates. But Mark isn’t Joanna’s friend, he’s her boyfriend – and they’re on 3nder, an app dedicated to finding like-minded people to have threesomes with. With more than 700,000 3nder users worldwide, it won’t be long until Joanna and Mark find the perfect companion for their 'sexy night in’. The so-called 'Tinder for threesomes’ was launched last year, but its popularity has ramped up in recent months with 17,000 new downloads each week. Whether you’re single and looking for a night with a couple, or in a relationship and like the…

High Street • The AW 15 Miu Miu catwalk left us with a very long shopping list – leopard coats, snakeskin heels… We could go on – but it’s the red check mini every fashionista is lusting after that’s got our vote. • Demi Lovato shows how to rock the look off the catwalk, opting for a classic blouse and coordinating heels. We love how the red lip ties it all together. • Can’t afford the original? It’s Topshop to the rescue with this fab doppelgänger. Either go all-out Miu Miu with clashing prints, or give it a 60 s spin with a boxy jacket and Mary Janes.…

The £30bn Baby! Mark Zuckerberg, Priscilla Chan & Baby Max Now this is one very lucky kid. After Mark, 31, and his wife Priscilla, 30, announced the birth of their daughter, Max, the Facebook boss also revealed he’s donating 99 per cent of his shares (that’s £30billion) to various causes to make the world a better place for his child.

If You’re In A Couple • Think about why you want a threesome – is it because there is something wrong with your relationship or you’re not feeling satisfied? If you’re not positively coming into it as a team, there can be repercussions. • Explore the differences between your fantasy and the reality. Discuss everything, from where it will happen and who you will pick to join you, to who does what and whether some things are off-limits. • Jealousy is a huge factor – even people in happy, open relationships can encounter it. It is a very good idea to make a plan for if one of you – including your guest – feels envious. If You’re Single • Think through your fantasy the same way a couple would.…

Gigi’s Coat If you still need some winter-coat inspo, look no further than Miss Hadid’s timeless buy. Simplicity is key here, but whether it’s jeans and a tee like Gigi or a classic LBD you throw yours over, you’re looking at the only cover-up to be seen in this season. Lydia’s Top Fringing? Check. Sequins? Check. Lydia’s super-sparkly top packs in plenty of wow factor, and two major trends.

Meet The Team Samantha Freedman Beauty Editor Victoria Jowett Beauty Writer Gabrielle Dyer Beauty Assistant Dry Skin Defender Every year when winter rolls in, my complexion gets oh-so dry, but this season I’ve managed to fight the flakiness, thanks to Filorga Hydra-Hyal Intensive Hydrating Plumping Concentrate, £ 45 . No, it’s not a super-heavy moisturiser or greasy balm – it’s a gel-like formula that disappears into my skin like water, giving an intense injection of moisture in just one use. The secret to its superpowers? Hyaluronic acid, which rescues dry and bumpy patches, leaving my cheeks smooth, supple and plumped.

Nothing makes us more excited than the discovery of a cool new label. So, when we find one that’s not just affordable, but has been worn by the likes of Kendall Jenner, Emma Roberts, Jamie Chung and Jade from Little Mix, the levels go off the scale. Right now, that label is Related – the brainchild of a London-based mother/daughter design duo. And it’s about to go stellar, thanks in no small part to a whole host of A-list ladies snapping up designs from the winter collection. Emma rocked the chic 'Marsie’ dress in NYC, Jade donned the 'Casey’ dungas on the red carpet, and Kendall has just cemented the 'Larkin’ skirt as a cult buy after she snapped it up. Oh, and Alessandra Ambrosio caused the 'Callie’ jumpsuit to…

We’ve all heard about strobing your skin to highlight and enhance every angle, but did you know the clever technique is now a hair trend? And it’s a dreamy one at that. Yes, hair strobing is officially here – and just in time for party season. The technique itself is pretty simple – pioneered by US-based colour genius, Justin Isaac, it involves hand-painting flecks of colour onto the hair in a range of complementary shades. These flecks are then blended to create a soft, multi-tonal finish with high and low colour points across every strand. 'Hair strobing isn’t about vertical or horizontal colour; it’s about tricking the eye and being visually stimulated,’ explains Justin. Unlike balayage and ombre, these subtle colour changes are made with shimmering shades to help naturally…

No one throws a party quite like Taylor Swift, whether she’s having a night with her BFFs or inviting her crew to her Rhode Island mansion for 4 July. So it’s no surprise the Bad Blood singer decided to take over an entire Aussie island for a huge pre-birthday blowout. Talk about celebrating in serious style! To mark her 26 th birthday (and celebrate finishing her 1989 tour in Australia the night before), she took- her entire 125 -strong crew with her... ‘Taylor also chartered private jets to fly friends from Los Angeles and New York too,’ an insider tells Look. ‘She invited Ed Sheeran and her family, who flew out for the end of her tour.’ Um, best friend ever. And apparently no expense was spared. ‘Flying everyone across…

‘I’ve started to notice a change in the air – tiny instances that never happened before. On crowded tube trains, the seat next to me will remain empty and people are staring at me more in a way that makes me feel uncomfortable. They’re tiny, subtle things but they happen daily and they add up to something bigger, something scarier: the fear of being attacked because of my religion. And while I can’t speak for all British Muslim women, I am guessing they feel it too – the tense, tight atmosphere that’s occurred since the Paris terrorist attacks. And it’s not paranoia. Violence against Muslims has starkly risen in the UK in the past few months, including a woman wearing a hijab being pushed into the path of an oncoming…
