Ponytails, contrary to popular belief, do not require you to cut the tails off perfectly happy ponies. What they do require, however, is some know how. Especially when it comes to the soft, natural, sexy ones featured at the Nicole Fahri A/W ‘10 show. Thankfully, our backstage bandit, Barney Martin has got the down that is low for us.... more

Burberry always attracts a stack of big stonkin’ stars, and for their A/W ‘10 show we saw the likes of Miss KRISTEN STEWART (looking like she may have found a new stylist), Miss KATE HUDSON, Miss CLAIRE DANES and Miss MARY KATE OLSEN, who is looking phenomenal these days with her sexy, wintery Lion’s mane and gold frosted lips and brown eyeshadow.... more

There’s a theme of undone hair at the A/W 10 shows - that raw texture from the S/S ‘10 shows has emerged again, but with more softness. The hair is clean-looking, soft, touchable… Good GOD, I sound like a shampoo ad. And the best part? When it’s all jammed messily into an updo.... more

Every season, Miss SIENNA MILLER and her sister SAVANNAH put on their Twenty8Twelve show, but unfortunately, just as it is with one VICTORIA BECKHAM, most of the press centres not on the clothes, or sister MILLER, but on the superstar. Thankfully she has some great new hair we can enjoy while we pretend to study her designs.

Bit of a strange thing to see on the A/W ‘10 catwalks, bright pink and aqua scarves and bouncy side ponytails, which is what House of Holland served up. I thought we kissed the ‘80s goodbye back at the S/S 10 shows, when the ‘90s sauntered back in, all subdued and smooth. Nevertheless, it’s adorable, and the makeup is incredibly sweet and fresh.... more

Well, she does. Sorry, but it needs to be said. Again. Which is why I’ve neglected to run runway shots, and instead focus on her, just Chunging her way through life and the front row of London fashion week, being cool and having great style and interesting hair that makes me want to chop mine off a little bit.... more

I don’t need to remind you (....or do I) that icy, pastel, silvery eye shadow has started to sneak back into Beauty Trendville, after you read my gushing on RIHANNA and Miss KATE HUDSON at the Grammy and Golden Globes, but at the A/W ‘10 Isaac Mizrahi show we saw probably the softest, more ethereal version of icy eyes possible. (In lieu of actually drawing on some eyeballs to a piece of ice.)... more

Proenza Schouler is a show I always enjoy, and like the famous Balmain show (still to come, over in Paris that one) it has a funny way of creating some Whopping Great Fashion and Beauty trends for the next season. It also has a phenom celeb turn out. ... more

Just like the smoldering smoky eye and berry lip I so loved at Zac Posen, Derek Lam dished up some serious Cold Weather makeup. Cold Weather makeup being dramatic, deep tones and heavy-handed application on both the eye and the lip. Delicious. Hand me some boots and a scarf, for I am ready for the chill.
