Fitness mad David Beckham is joined by his youngest son as he pays ANOTHER visit to the gym

His current stay in Los Angeles has been a recuperative one for evergreen former footballer David Beckham, who appears to have spent much of his time working out in a local gym.
Stepping out on Saturday, the 38-year-old was accompanied by sons Cruz and Romeo as he once again made his daily pilgrimage to the fitness studio in LA suburb Brentwood, not far from the sprawling Beckham pile in nearby Beverly Hills.
Sporting a vest top that revealed his distinctive sleeve tattoos, Beckham and his two boys climbed out of their gleaming Prius, with Cruz apparently inheriting his famous father’s  love of hats by wearing one of his own – a blue baseball cap.

Go Retro in Beyoncé's circle sunnies

So Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian went on a dermatologist date together. ‘I woke up like this’ flawless skin doesn’t just happen, you know? So whilst it's little surprise they share beauty tips, they do have something else in common.
Beyoncé’s retro shades are by Linda Farrow for The Row, and Kim has shown off her specs appeal by wearing the brand before too. It's a collaboration which brings together everyone's favourite twins, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and the Seventies sunglasses queen whose styles were once a favourite of Yoko Ono's.
We love the John Lennon look of these circle specs, which have long been hot amongst the hipsters. Bey's a big fan of this shape of shades. We've spotted her wearing both the black and leather versions of these, and she's not the only famous fan. From Kristen Stewart to Fearne Cotton, every style savvy celeb seems to be jumping on the bandwagon.
Click (right) to snap up these sunglasses now. But if you're budget's a little less bootylicious than Beyoncé’s, shop our finds from the edit below. Then pair yours with an oh so boho crochet dress - perfect if you're heading to Coachella!

Rock out like Rita in Roberto Cavalli

Everyone who's anyone seems to be heading to the Coachella Valley Festival in California this weekend. And whilst we are of course, crazy jealous, it's also getting us uber excited for summer back home. It's never too early to start thinking about festival style...
Rita Ora seemed to have got the same memo as Selena Gomez, as they both rocked up wearing oh so boho sheer maxi dresses. But whilst Selena stuck to Free People, Rita really called in the big guns in this Fall 2014 dress by Roberto Cavalli.
This is the second time in as many weeks that Rita has worn a dress by the Italian fashion god, and it's not hard to see why. There's always so much to look at! This one is particularly intricate and we love the sheer lace panels and embellished details.
Back in Blighty, we'd be a little bit concerned about wearing a dress hot off the runway to stomp around in the mud. But you can still channel Cavalli in one of the high street options we have found just for you. Simply team it with a floppy fedora, huge shades and battered ankle boots. Next stop, Glastonbury!

Dressed in a long sleeve white crochet maxi dress, worn over a pair of white denim shorts and a black crop top, Selena looked like a boho princess.

Eccentric singer Lady Gaga reveals she uses facial TAPE to 'form her eyes'

Lady Gaga uses facelift tape 'every day’ to look younger.’
The 28-year-old singer has admitted she uses the tape to pull the skin around her cheekbones and neck tight in an effort to look more youthful and revealed it is part of her morning ritual.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: ‘When I have my wig cap on and I'm taping my face, it's a sort of meditation for me. Every day, it starts the same way. It's like a mantra.

‘I wash my face, I pin my hair back and put on a wig cap and I ask, “How am I going to form my eyes today with this tape? How will I pull back my neck with tape?”’
The 'Poker Face' star insisted despite not being a natural look, it can still be ‘honest’ and authentic.
She said: ‘Looking artificial can be honest. Being glamorous can come from a place of authenticity and a place of love.’
However, plastic surgeon Jeya Prakash has warned the tape could lead to permanent damage.

He explained: "By taping your face tight, you are reducing the circulation which means there are less ‘nutrients getting to the skin, so abnormal collagen will be produced.
‘This is like internal scarring as different types of cells from the skin - like with a scar. In the long term, it will speed up the ageing process.’
Meanwhile, Lily Allen has called Lady Gaga a ‘martyr’ for choosing ‘art’ over commercial success.
