She nails the look with this one. Simple understated style but bang-up-to-date chic. The skirt is not too short and the girl mountains are kept under wraps. Much more sophisticated. We like.

We’ve taken her black-and-white look as the fashion inspiration for Friday and pounced on this fabulously girlie polka dot print silk chiffon ruffled mini dress. Better still, there is a MASSIVE 40 PER CENT OFF! Was £350 now £210. Grab it fast, before VB snaps it up.

Oceans of satin to hug and kiss your curves is a much-in-demand look now. Leona Lewis handles the look in style in recent photographs to promote her new single, Bleeding Love.

You can recreate the look without the floor-length frock. The Vera Wang satin camisole top has us completely impressed.

Gray silk charmeuse camisole top with elasticated waistband and sequin bib, £260.

Fashion inspiration: chanteuse goes Charmeuse

If Banksy did fashion, the look would make a catwalk statement. We could just see Angelina Jolie working the look. Get the news on the link.

An auction of 10 original works and one print by graffiti artist Banksy fetches £546,000 altogether.

We’re gone baby blue after seeing Ugly Betty star Rebecca, below, dazzle in her coat. The trench is a hard look to pull off unless your pin thin (the belt can be fashion-cruel), so we think this is more flattering.

Miu Miu coat, £625

We’ve gone all Ugly Betty this afternoon with Rebecca Romijn in her powder blue trench and siren-red slingbacks. This look is ridiculously good. Flaunt it shamelessly and listen to the compliments roll in.

Colour me beautiful

Love a little Patrick Cox this week and get the look without spending all your pocket money. Remember, remember to check out koodos.com for price slashes on style.

We saved £75 here (£225 to £150) on the Sam sandal. Wrap yourself up in the ankle-strap detail for winter.

Something happened to Gary Barlow second time around. Take a sprinkling of stardust, more exercise and less food and you get an impressive-looking Mr GB. He’s so American-Gangster-movie hot.

Take That front M&S menswear campaign and the look is good. Tailored key pieces for smart chic. No Robbie required.

The Gary effect. Charcoal pinstripe suit; jacket £80

She might complain that she doesn’t get on the cover of Vogue as much as she’d like, but when she does, Naomi Campbell does it good.

Here she is in February 2001 in a bustier dress by Tom Ford for YSL Rive Gauche.
