The wait is finally over, as Olivia Rubin's Summer collection for Dorothy Perkins launched today! The high street collection reflects Rubin's mainline, with print-based colourful pieces in a range of maxis, peplum tops, wrap dresses and one-shouldered numbers. The British designer, who worked at Alexander McQueen and John Galliano before launching her label in 2007, told Vogue she wants to give Read more

There are many funky heels around at the moment, but it's the blue suede styles that keep catching my eye. I can't even think about this trend without humming the Elvis song! These shoes, however are slightly higher than anything Mr. Presley might have worn. I have completely fallen for these Nicholas Kirkwood buckle heels (£480). The bright blue suede and the oversize buckle make Read more
On a trip to the French capital over a year ago I got my hands on a 'I heart Paris' t-shirt.

This year has been important one for Cheryl Cole from negative press rumours about her marriage, to her style makeover to her recent position as X Factor judge she has won Read more
