Time for a new hair style, Kate? Critics say it's too long and lank, and look what the wind did yesterday! So what should she do...

There comes a moment in every woman’s life when she has to consider a drastic change of hairstyle. With a baby to care for and less time to spend on her trademark chestnut-brown locks, could that moment now have come for the Duchess of Cambridge? Certainly Britain’s most famous tresses were not looking their best yesterday when Kate, sporting a £225 LK Bennett dress and jewels worth nearly £11,000, visited a West London school in her role as patron of The Art Room charity. Her usually glorious mane was less thick than is customary, perhaps a clue that, like many new mothers, she is shedding some of the hair she gained thanks to her pregnancy hormones....

Host of bare-chested hunks gathers to celebrate 20 years of the iconic adverts

It's hard to believe 20 years have passed since the Diet Coke man first graced our TV screens. It was back in 1994 that the first 'hunk' ad appeared, which flipped traditional gender roles to depict women objectifying handsome men, rather than the other way round.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the first Diet Coke hunk advert, a host of bare-chested hotties descended on central Lond...

Gaby Roslin: 'Why I'm proud of my wrinkles' 49-year-old says the more you mess with your face, the more it catches up with you

When you’re a woman approaching 50 in showbiz, how do you avoid going down the Botoxed-to-the-hilt route? Gaby Roslin has a convincing – if chilling - answer. ‘Losing three friends to cancer in 18 months kind of helps you get a bit of perspective on these things,’ says the TV presenter. Especially, she adds, when one of those friends made her feelings about Botox known just before she died. ‘My big revelatory moment came just over three years ago when I was in Selfridges with Rachel, one of my dearest friends,’ she says. ‘We used to go shopping when she’d had a bout of chemo and on this day we were having a laugh trying on the wigs. This woman walked past – one of those ones, you know, face set as if she’d been caught in a wind-tunnel – and Rachel got really angry.  ...

Madonna sure likes to raise eyebrows. On Wednesday the Justify My Love singer posted a photo of herself showing off her thigh-high stockings while on the floor of her bathroom.

Though the marks are very common in adults older than age 40, they can affect younger people too....
