MULBERRY DESIGNS LAPTOP BAGS FOR APPLE







Here is the an awesome new range created by Mulberry for Apple!  Finally laptop bags are sexy!  What a chic way to carry around your Iphone or laptop available at Selfridges.

R...RUSSIAN ROULETTE...THE NEW SINGLE OUT 8.11.09



These are the in my opinion the STUPENDOUSLY AMAZING cover shoots for Rihanna's new single Russian Rulette!!  Every time I see this girl she looks smoking hot!!  Most people however seem to disagree.  Clown is the word I read on a popular fashion site!  She's young, rich and beautiful with a successful career so why shouldn't she experiment with her style?!  Moving on I cant wait to hear her tune tunes and to see what this diverse creature does for 09/10....

ALL NEW H I G H T S

The view from up top is pretty sweet...especially when your wearing these stunning creations!
Designers went all out this year creating some eye catching unique footware.  These shoes are most certainly not for walking in un-less your Victoria Beckham...



























SHOULD THE SUGABABES CALL IT QUITS?!







Right, Siobhán left first then Heidi came in to re-place her!  They seemed to be going ok...
Then Mutya had a baby and decided to leave...then they bought in Amelle and they seemed once again to be doing pretty well (except for the one flop album that I have no idea what it was called)
Amelle seemed to have personal problems but it seems at the core of these drama's was Keisha!!!
According to some reports Keisha has been the driving force of the band and has been dubbed the "bully"!!  
Now it appears the the so called bully has decided to call it quits!!  I guess the remaining members aren't going to put up with her overpowering?!
Her replacement comes in the form of Jade Ewen (Eurovision) which I think fits in quite well and holds her own very confidently! 
However with all the going's on Amelle has been hospitalised due to the enormous amount of pressure!  Now for me I don't know weather they should just call it quits or soldier on?!  I guess w will have to see what time brings...

RALPH LAUREN MODEL SACKED FOR BEING TOO FAT!!





It's been reported that Filippa Hamilton-Palmstierna has been sacked because she is too "fat"! Now for those of you who know this models will know that she is in no way "fat"!! According to RL HQ she has failed to meet their obligations. What like wanting to have a salad?!  Instead they chose to release these insane and beyond obvious manipulated images for their Blue Label campaign.
Right, Ralph Lauren is a one of the best luxury brands in the business, so it fails me as to why they would want to put something like this out there!!!  I'm not even going to talk about how delirious this image looks!!
It begs the question when will these "fashion people" ever learn that women don't actually look like this and are contributing to the mass of young girls and women suffering from eating disorders?!?!
