12 high street copies of our favourite celebrity Instagram looks
[nextpage title="Next"] It's a known fact that celebrities look amazing at all times, although this is because they have more money than we could ever dream of having. Luckily, the high street is our saviour, and gives us much cheaper lookalikes, so we can pretend we're Beyonce all day, everyday. So, as part of Style…
9 of the most stylish women on the internet
Beyoncé, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kim Kardashian... Sure, they each have their own style, and at times, we've wanted to emulate all of them. (Kim got away with wearing a sparkly dressing gown to an awards show. She has my eternal admiration.) But when it comes to fashion, it's often far (FAR) more interesting to see what…
This Instagrammer has created a makeup look for every Harry Potter house
The immensely-talented Briana Augustinos is someone you should definitely be following on Instagram if you're into makeup. The pink-haired beauty from Austin, Texas just released a series of Harry Potter makeup looks – one for every house – and we're in love. Not all the products she's used are available in the UK but we've…
Disabled models are in fashion now… Is that a good thing?
Disabled models are so on trend right now. Takafumi Tsuruta included disabled models in his show at Tokyo Fashion Week last week, including wheelchair user Ami Sano and 2012 Paralympic gold medallist Rina Akiyama, who is blind. Last month, Jamie Brewer, who starred in American Horror Story, walked the catwalk at New York fashion week…
5 of the most beautiful beauty products in the UK
The last few years have seen some amazingly affordable beauty brands launch, which has given us the option to binge buy beauty virtually guilt-free, with the main incentive being that we forgo fancy packaging and instead focus on the effectiveness and practicality of the product itself. This is all well and good, but sometimes you…

That means you can build your own smartwatch, choosing from 3 case finishes, 9 bands and 11 different watch faces (that's 297 different combinations) to…
NoScrunchie helps you find brilliant Afro-Caribbean salons
When we met NoScrunchie at Tech City IWD (where we also found the fantastic Tara Binns and Birdsong), we fell in love with the name, then the idea behind this much-needed site. Essentially, if you have Afro-Caribbean hair, it's a right faff to find a salon that's good at making it look its beautiful best…
We love: Birdsong, the ‘no sweatshops, no photoshop’ female-forward fashion company
We were really excited to meet Birdsong at Tech City's recent showcase of women-led businesses – they're a breath of fresh air in the style world. Why? Because all their clothes are made by women's groups, and 70-90% of the purchase price goes straight to those organisations, helping them flourish. Products include: Jewellery handmade by women recovering…
We’re a bit taken with these colourful new Filofax Notebooks
I'm a huge Filofax fan. Despite being the most digitally-organised person you could ever hope to come across (I mean, I review phones for a living), for me, nothing beats the satisfaction of pulling out my shiny red Filofax and crossing something off my to-do list. Show me an app that feels half as good! So…
