Our rundowns of the latest looks to hit Primark are always big news for Catwalk Queen, so I'm glad to be able to bring you some looks from their Spring / Summer range. A lot of these pieces are already in stores (I picked up the bird print dress last night) with some to come in early Feb. There's a real nautical theme - always big news in Spring - with pieces starting at only a couple of quid. Sharpen ...
Gemma's stories:
With London Fashion Week looming, I thought it was a fitting time to mention an absolute bargain from one of the country's biggest up-and-coming designers. Ann-Sofie Back is a name to watch, and her shows are always modern and memorable. Luckily for us, she lends her hand to capsule collections for more affordable outlets as well as creating her main line...
ASOS.com are now stocking cult brand Black Halo, probably most famous for dressing Amanda in Ugly Betty just about every week. She must have the Jackie O dress (£225) in about five colours, though right now we can only get it this side of the pond in black...
No Oscars this year? Copy Jessica Biel’s understated classic from last year instead!
by , Leave Response
At last year's Academy Awards, Jessica Biel showed off her insanely toned body in a pink column dress by Oscar de la Renta. It was the perfect choice for a relative newcomer on the night when everyone is searching for fashion faux pas; pick a safe shape but wow people by wearing it in a bold colour...
I'm in love with Marks & Spencer's 'Padstow Princess' collection. Named after the Cornwall town probably best known for housing Rick Stein's seafood restaurant (oh, and for looking this pretty) the girly range of blue-toned florals, spring macs and broiderie anglaise...
Julien MacDonald's ruffle trim pencil skirt for Designers at Debenhams has me salivating. Sadly, I fear when I see it in person the sparkly thread that apparently runs through it might be too much. Until I find out, allow me to imagine how it might be worn...
If you'd have told me that today I'd be posting a picture of Matthew McConaughey playing personal trainer to Bill Gates, I wouldn't have believed you. But here it is! Apparently, when he steps down from the Microsoft later in the year, Gates will be filling his time rapping with Jay-Z, auditioning for Spielberg movies and persuading George Clooney to play him in a movie, as well as buffing up with Matt. All this stuff is from a skit played ...
By the time you read this, we will be at our office Christmas party. Or perhaps we'll be nursing the subsequent hangovers. Either way, we're not going to be in a very 'bloggy' mood. So in our absence, here's a round-up of all the amazing festive content we've been providing you with over the last week, all in a nicely digestible link round-up....

Camp, silly and completely over ...

This Christmas, the girls at Shiny Towers have been compiling their very own wishlists of stuff they'd love to find in their stockings on the 25th. Following on from Laura's collection of quirky accessories, I put my Kiss and Makeup hat on to find the beauty bits I'd love (and I'm sure you would too). See after the jump for full details.
Yesterday Kim and I got a sneaky peek at what New Look has to offer for next Summer, and I have to say I was really impressed with the quality of the clothes, the attention to detail and the research behind the trends. The catwalk inspirations were clear, with pieces that paid homage to designers as cutting edge as Christopher Kane and as reliably chic as Jaeger, and accessories were particularly fantastic (start saving for the shoes now). It ...
