The lace dress is a difficult look to get right. So many lacy dresses look cheap and nasty, and for some reason high street retailers seem intent on making their lace offerings as girl as possible, adding frills and details where they're really not needed. Topshop Unique have attempted to tackle that issue....
It's quite possible that it's a bit early to be looking at Winter coats. But it is September now, and we all know how quickly it gets cold. Also, when it comes to coats, you snooze you lose. Wait too long and all the bargains will be gone. I remember chasing a particular coat around all of London's Dorothy Perkins stores two years ago....
Kimberley Foster writes... As you can probably imagine, after reading on Monday about Vogue India's senseless decision to recruit a group of impoverished people, including children, and dress them in Hermes and Burberry for a glossy photo-shoot, I like many of you, have been left pretty freaked out...

Keira Knightley let her dress do all the talking at last night's premiere of her latest film The Duchess in London's Leicester Square. The cornflower blue dress from Alexis Mabille's Autumn 2008 Couture collection was accessorised with only patent Moschino square-toe heels and a Chanel ring. What do you think of her look?
I know when I ride horses I like to do it wearing bright pink velour, don't you? Here Katie 'Jordan' Price is promoting her latest business venture, KP Equestrian, a line of horse-riding gear in, you guessed it, pink. It doesn't get more classy than this, does it?

It was a bit of a mixed bag when it came to femme fashion at the GQ Men of the Year Awards, held in London last night. While Lily Allen stole the show (for better or worse) in her billowing Dolce & Gabbana ballgown, the other female attendees also sported...

Name: Kelly McAuliffe Location: London Shiny Job: Editor of The Bag Lady, writer for Catwalk Queen and Shoewawa Background: Having spent most of my life in (lovely but small) Auckland, New Zealand, where I slaved to get a journalism degree and then spent a happy two-and-a-half years editing the...
More and more of these double-layered dresses and skirts are slowly appearing on the high street, which leads me to believe they're taking off in a big way. That said, I've yet to see anyone out and about wearing one, which either says something about the circles I move in (and the amount of time I spend at home in front of the telly) or something about the women of London and their taste in clothing.
After many years as a music TV presenter, Alexa Chung has carved a pretty solid fashion career for herself, which was recently cemented by Karl Lagerfeld, who gave his personal approval of her...
As far as I'm concerned, Funny Face is the ultimate fashion movie, and this opening number from Miss Prescott, editor of 'Quality' magazine, is one of the best scenes. Namechecking Dior and Delman while advising women to 'think pink', she makes Wilhelmina Slater look like an amateur...t
Gemma Cartwright writes... It seems like only yesterday that I was jumping on a plane to Australia to escape looking forward to February's Fashion Weeks.

Diane Kruger has the world of fashion clamoring to dress her, so it's no surprise she looks perfectly turned out at every event. With the likes of Chanel and YSL offering her custom creations, Elie Saab dressing her for the Oscars and Alberta Ferretti creating a superhero outfit for the MET Costume Insititute Gala, Diane's fashion pedigree is obvious. The former model is one of the most reliably chic actresses on the party circuit and her signature looks are the killer gown and the slinky mini dress. Favouring black, white or bold pops of colour with minimal accessories and soft, messy hair, she's today's style icon. CLICK THE IMAGE TO START THE GALLERY
