If you enjoyed school discos up until your late teens, consider yourself lucky. Growing up, the fact that my secondary banned any dance-related extracurricular activities never seemed strange to me until I heard the rest of the city’s schools had them. On a SEMI-ANNUAL basis. Turns out, I was living my worst Footloose life – sadly, with significantly less bleach denim, hairspray and Kevin Bacon. This is why I can’t resist a party. I may be tired, I may be hungry, but as soon as I hear that Macarena beat, I can go for hours. It’s no surprise then, that when it comes to party season, I’m ALL in – and it seems you lot are, too. As it dawns on us that, yes, it’s the middle of November and,…

Cadbury’s for breakfast was all fun and games to begin with, but after years of gorging ourselves, we’re open to a change. For 2017, the advent calendar game has been significantly upped, featuring the only two things we’d ever trade choccie for: make-up and pretty stuff… Edinburgh Gin Advent Calendar, £100 Get merry with 25 mini 5cl bottles featuring every type of gin from citrus to juniper and lavender. Feelunique 12 Days of Beauty Calendar, £35 If you want to be part of the festive fun but don’t want to spend a ton of cash, this beautiful box won’t break the bank and definitely doesn’t compromise on products. The NYX Lip Cream and Palmer’s Coconut Oil Shampoo are our personal faves. Kiehl’s Since 1851 Advent Calendar, £110 If you know…

We have a theory about Holly Willoughby; she may just be the most influential woman in British fashion right now. Of course, we all know she’s the darling of the small screen, but her star is shining brighter than ever, and it’s all down to her outfits on and off camera. The presenter has always been sartorially blessed; however, her fashion game has been significantly upped since she joined forces with super-stylist Angie Smith last January, who has helped Holly unlock her true potential; and it certainly hasn’t gone unnoticed. With 2.7 million Instagram followers and counting, her fans eagerly await her daily outfit posts to see exactly what she’s wearing and, subsequently, where they can buy it from, stat. And, aside from that Ashish rainbow sequin mini dress, the…

When Prada put its OTT feathered footwear down the runway, we were oh-so hopeful these beauties would end up on the good ol’ high street. They came in at £705 a plumage, so we’re now collectively rejoicing that our shoe game can get a sprinkling of designer detailing at a cut of the price. The A-list have long obsessed over spenny incarnations (we’re looking at you, Hailey Baldwin), but we’re 100% sold on our new affordable BFFs. The question is: how do you wear them without looking like a muppet? Literally. If the stars are anything to go by, it’s with absolutely everything. Whether you update your basic denim and high-neck jumper duo so you can fly into evening territory in an instant, or make them the showstopping add-on to…

1 GET AHEAD OF THE GAME Whether you’re shopping Black Friday or Cyber Monday (24 and 27 November), lists are key. If you opt for online, go through your fave sites ahead of the dates and save your swag to the virtual basket. Brands including John Lewis and M&S will let you keep them there for as long as you like, while others such as ASOS have a wish list where you can add bits that catch your eye. The same theory applies IRL – list what you want and turn up equipped with product codes, so staff can check stock ASAP. 2 STAY REFRESHED Think about how exhausting regular shopping is, then times that by 100. That’s a rough indication of how manic Black Friday can be. Stave off…

Urban Decay All Nighter Liquid Foundation, £29 I don’t wear much make-up day to day, but when I’m going out I like to use something I know will last. This stays put without fading and it’s not too thick, either. @saskiasage Rimmel Lasting Finish Foundation, £8.29 This is my favourite base. I’ve used it for years and still get so many compliments when I wear it! It hides everything, stays put come rain or shine and it’s super budget friendly, too! @daisiesmith Smashbox Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation, £29.50 A total hero buy, this is my secret weapon when I need something that won’t budge and doesn’t leave me looking like I have loads of make-up on. @stylemavenworld Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay In Place Makeup, £32.50 This…

Let’s be honest – scales can be misleading and, if we had our way, we’d ditch ’em for good. Bad for the brain, we reckon. But obsessing over those pesky readings can also give a false impression of overall health. ‘It’s possible to have a low body weight but still be unfit and feel tired or unwell,’ says Dr Marilyn Glenville, nutritionist and author of Fat Around The Middle. ‘Equally, you could be carrying a few more pounds but still be really healthy, fit and full of energy. So becoming overly obsessed with the scales can take your attention away from realistic measures of health.’ Besides, increased weight can actually be down to muscle gain. ‘Your body weight might go up but, at the same time, body fat percentage is…

Christmas Has Arrived It’s not Christmas until John Lewis releases its annual TV advert – and if we’re not crying over Moz the monster (he’s so selfless!), we’re tuning into Marks & Spencer’s Paddington themed ad, wishing we had a friendly neighbourhood bear, too. Pass the Quality Street, Christmas starts now… Going For Gold It looks as though we’re all getting into the party spirit after Pinterest revealed gold eyeliner searches are up722 per cent from last year. Now that’s what we call trending… In a flurry There’s nothing worse than popping into Maccy D’s fora McFlurry, only to find the machine is out of order. Again. Enter Ice Check, an app that allows you to confirm if the machine is on before you even arrive in store… Minnie Mouse…

“Meghan sees her and Kate as a dream double act” OK, we know we won’t be bumping into Meghan Markle on the tube, and we’re 99.9 per cent sure we won’t see her popping into the Zara store near Kensington Palace (sad face), but we are pretty giddy to learn she’s said to be moving to London. On the build-up to her and Harry’s reportedly imminent engagement announcement, Megs is believed to be putting in place a pre-wedding ‘action plan’ to become the perfect princess – even before the news is announced. We’re told she’s set her sights on teaming up with Kate and getting involved in heaps of charity work as soon as she touches down. She might be moving to London for Hazza, but it sounds like Megs…

When Justin Bieber posts your photo to his 93million Instagram followers to find out who you are, you’re about to get seriously famous. That’s what happened to the nearly 19-year-old mega-babe Cindy Kimberly aka@WolfieCindy. She’s since racked up 3.6million Insta followers of her own, started modelling and fronts the campaign for the new 100-piece I Saw It First partywear collection. We chat to the sassy señorita to get the 411… CINDY ON... WINTER TRENDS: ‘I’m more of a summer girl, but for party season I’ll be in a lot of black. I love the black maxi in the campaign shots.’ HANDBAG ESSENTIALS: ‘Red lipstick, eyelash curler and my phone.’ STYLE ICON: ‘Rihanna for sure. She’s so edgy and has that “don’t give a f**k” attitude. You can tell she just…

“A line across my butt sparked a manic meltdown” ‘Mum, you’re gonna have to take me to ASDA. I need new underwear.’ Ah yes, the moment on my wedding day when I made the unfortunate discovery that the fancy lingerie I’d bought for the big day was creating lumps and bumps underneath my fitted gown. This is why dress rehearsals are so important, people! So, with only an hour to spare, we took ourselves off to my nearest George counter to snap up a pair of £2 seamless nude briefs. Sexy doesn’t quite cut it. In retrospect, though, I can’t wrap my head around why a little hip dip or line across my butt sparked such a manic meltdown. I mean, we all wear pants for the most part, right?…

1 CHOOSE ’EM WISELY  ‘The higher the heel, the more damage that can becaused. Equally, a rounder “toe box” is much better for your feet than a pointy one. If you can compromise on heel height and shape (for example, going for a Cuban over a stiletto), you’ll be doing yourself a favour.’ 2 DON’T BE FOOLED ‘Be aware that alcohol has a numbing effect. I often see patients who have gone for a night out in heels that seem perfectly comfortable at the time, but the next day they can be almost crawling to the clinic in agony.’ 3 PLAN AHEAD  ‘Little changes can have a big impact. For example, wear your heels at the party, but not to the party. Pack some flat shoes to get you where…

‘I’d spend my life in a beach hut if I could, but I can’t. What I can do, though, is bring the laid-back vibes into my home with these rustic buys. Trust me – wicker, wood and sheepskin make for a seriously chilled boudoir.’BRIDIE WILKINS, FASHION NEWS WRITER Staying home and travelling the world may seem like two very different things, but if this autumn’s globetrotter interior trend is anything to go by, they truly go hand in hand. So what if you’re not relaxing in a rustic Moroccan riad or backpacking the mountains of Machu Picchu? Your living room’s tapestry floor cushion, colourful woven baskets and fuzzy sheepskin rug have all the #wanderlust vibes you need RN. And the best bit? You don’t need to leave the sofa.…

“I try to get a morning workout in because it jump-starts my day” Going for breakfast with a celebrity is a bit like going on a first date. You look forward to it, sure, but you also spend half the time hoping you won’t spill your brekkie down your top (or worse, theirs), forget your etiquette, or ramble on with granola stuck in your teeth (only to realise after the obligatory selfie). Luckily, when Look met Nicole Scherzinger at London’s swanky Sanderson hotel last week, we did none of the above. Perhaps because having breakfast with 39-year-old Scherzy is a lot like chatting with an old mate. Catching up with the Müller ambassador to celebrate the launch of its new yogurt White Velvet (which, FYI, we had two bowls of…

What’s the story? A threat from the terrifying Steppenwolf and his army of Parademons is too much to handle for just one superhero. So the Justice League unite, with Batman and Wonder Woman assembling a team, including Aquaman, The Flash and Cyborg.
