Be the lady in red with Iggy's plunging scarlet bodycon dress
Never one to shy away from the cameras when it comes to donning risqué and downright bonkers outfits, Iggy Izalea once again gave her fans an eyeful as she slipped into this figure-hugging scarlet dress.
Proving that red is a winning shade when it comes to dressing for the new season, Iggy certainly embraced this hue, channelling some serious Jessica Rabbit vibes. Whether you style it down with a leather biker jacket and sandals or dress it up with sky high stilettos, this wardrobe staple is guaranteed to get you noticed.
So, if you’re keen to rock this eye-catching look now, we’ve done the leg work for you and chosen our favourite alternatives from the endless array of scarlet dresses out there.
Asos’ bold array of staples is perfect for those of you trying the trend for the first time and their mini bodycon dress (below) is a super cute way to work this shade into your evening wardrobe. Team with minimal jewellery and killer heels to maximise the impact.
Update your work-out wardrobe with a pair of Nike Air Max
She might be pouting for the cameras rather than
focusing on her squats, but at least Luisa Zissman looks the part in her
head-to-toe Nike work-out kit. With bikini season just around the corner, now is the perfect time to be stepping up our fitness regime. Think Abbey Clancy and Miranda Kerr in Victoria Secret leggings, that’s what we’re aiming for here.
And, it doesn’t matter if you’re running, skipping or taking up the trapeze, you will be requiring some snazzy gym kecks to get you in the mood. If, like us, your kit is more geek than chic however, it’s time to pick up the pace and invest in something new.
Versatile and super comfortable, Nike Air Max have been enjoying somewhat of a high fashion revival over the last few seasons with celebrities and fashion editors alike donning a pair for everything from attending fashion shows, to (rarely) exercising. So, if you’re keen to stay in style, invest in a pair of these bad boys to get to motivated.
Shine on with a shimmering pencil skirt like Lauren
Lauren Silverman hasn't wasted any time getting her pre-baby bod back!
The socialite attended the Britain's Got Talent semi final looking trim and toned in a one shoulder top, black courts and a shimmering black pencil skirt.
Having been spotted on the runways at Saint Laurent, Altuzarra and Akris, shimmering chromatic looks were a strong feature at the Spring/Summer 2014 shows, and a pencil skirt like Lauren's is the perfect way to work the look.
Team your high shine skirt with glam tops like Lauren, or try dressing it down with a cashmere sweater or grey marl T-shirt.
Shop Lauren's look below, with iridescent pencil skirts new in at Topshop, Net A Porter, Missguided and Boohoo, with prices starting at just £15.
Dress to impress with Alesha's pleated Versace gown
As our favourite Britain's Got Talent judge, we can always reply on the lovely Alesha Dixon to look super on point, and this elaborate Versace dress is no exception. Also owned by Lady Gaga, it features daring cutouts at the waist and heavy chain straps and embellishments. What a way to steal the spotlight from Lauren Silverman!
From Oscar De La Renta, Nina Ricci and Sonia Rykiel, to Sportmax, Zac Posen and Temperley London, designers everywhere went potty for pastels this season. So, if you’re keen to get ahead of the style set, now is the perfect time to be investing statement dress is a girly shade.

Flash your pins with Kate Moss' sexy scallop shorts
Who likes short shorts? Stephanie Warings likes short shorts!
The Hollyoaks actress looked super trim and toned as she partied with co star Jorgie Porter, wearing an all black outfit with Kate Moss for Topshop scallop shorts, mesh top and peep toe heels.
Undoubtedly sparked by the Roaring Twenties trend, scallop edges have returned to the catwalks for Spring 2014, having been spotted adorning dresses, jackets, skirts, shorts and accessories at the new season shows of Georges Hobeika and Marchesa.
The great news about scallops is that thanks to their delicate detailing, they'll instantly make any outfit look more expensive. If you're thigh conscious, the clever chiffon hem will provide extra coverage, making shorts much less daunting, and they'll even flatter your pins in the process. Well, Mossy does know a thing or two about style!

Team with a button up blouse and lace up flats for a preppy look, with a slogan sweater and barely there heels for a sporty style, or you could even glam them up for parties with an embellished blouse.
If you miss the boat on Stephanie's shorts - fear not. The high street is awash with scallop shorts to suit all shapes - check out our favourites below.
D-I-S-C-O! Get 70s fever with metallic platforms
Denise Van Outen flexed some serious fashion muscles for her 40th birthday bash!
Not only did the presenter wear a Marc By Marc Jacobs playsuit, but she also had a lust worthy Chanel bag and a pair of 70s inspired metallic platforms from designer footwear label Gianmarco Lorenzi, who counts Millie Mackintosh, Michelle Keegan and Beyonce as fans.
While the 90s have been this season's most talked about decade, the 70s disco era also made it's mark at the Spring 2014 shows.
From sequinned flares at Givenchy to high octane smock dresses at Christopher Kane, the new season shows were all about the disco glam.
A pair of power platforms like Denise's are the perfect way to trial the trend, and will look amazing with everything from little black dresses to skinny jeans, and even flippy skirts.
Click to the right to snap them up for yourself, or get the look for less below, with disco worthy platforms new in at Office, River Island, Kurt Geiger and Schuh.
David Bowie would be proud!
Join the fashion pack and invest in Amber's cult boots
The little black dress, the skinny jeans, the biker jacket, the crisp white shirt. Fashions come and go, but some things remain on trend forever.
Case in point: Amber Heard's Acne pistol boots, which have become a cult classic in fashion circles having been lusted after by every fashion editor on the planet and worn by Keira Knightley, Michelle Williams and Clemence Poesy to name just a few.
With their curved heel and almond toe, these stylish boots will go with everything - team with skinny jeans, flippy dresses, city shorts, tailored trousers, structured skirts....the list is endless. We guarantee they'll be worth the investment. In fact on the Selfridges website they've said the boots are "a seasonless staple."
We couldn't of put it better ourselves if we tried!
Acne's boots come in a range of colours, including tan, white, beige, burgundy and blue, but Amber's kept it classic in sleek black.
Click to the right to shop them for yourself, or get the look below with stylish boots new in at Topshop, River Island, Office and Kurt Geiger.
Spend it like Beckham with Brooklyn's bargain sneakers
He's fast becoming one of the world's trendiest teenagers.
But unlike his parents, who like to splash the cash on high end clothing, Brooklyn is much the same as any other person his age, with a uniform of skinny jeans, T-shirts and casual shoes.
Brooklyn's latest look is no exception as he was spotted out skateboarding with Chloe Grace Moretz (hold the phone...are they dating??) wearing a pair of grey canvas shoes from Vans.
In a season dominated by sporty trainers, it's all about combing style and comfort this Spring. But if you're looking for a slightly smarter style (that doesn't make you feel guilty for not using your gym membership) Oxford shoes like Brooklyn's are the perfect alternative.
In canvas fabric with lace ups, they're slightly smarter than a sneaker, but they'll still go with everything from jeans to chinos, shorts to...er...sarongs? Hopefully Brooklyn won't take after his dad on that front...
You can snap up Brooklyn's exact shoes at Schuh by clicking to the right, or see below for the best of the rest from Fred Perry, APC, Converse and River Island.
Go nude... in heels like Kim Kardashian's
So it's all over. The wedding of the year is done and dusted and the bride is back from her honeymoon.
Kim Kardashian stepped off a plane in New York and is back to reality, quite literally. But, as ever, she looked chic and sophisticated in an all-black look that covered her famous curves. We're not always fans of Kim's overdone style but this casual ensemble is perfect for travel.
We've seen this blazer on her before. It's by one of her favourite labels, Balmain and is a rather fabulous leather take on the classic blazer and of course she wore the celebrity essential, a pair of oversized shades by Celine.
Kim is rarely seen without her heels and this pair are a staple style that she will no doubt wear time and again. They're by Saint Laurent and while they seem simple with a pointed toe and patent nude hue, their heel is gold, adding a touch of bling to an otherwise pared back look.
Sadly this 'Clara' shoe has sold out but the high street has tonnes of nude heels that will fit the bill with ease. Get a bargain at Asos or how about Kurt Geiger's Britton style? It has a metal heel like Kimmy's Saint Laurent originals.
Then wear with everything in your wardrobe. From jeans to your little black dress, this will be your most versatile shoe.
Dress to impress in Halle Berry's flowing Elie Saab gown
We can always rely on the gorgeous Halle Berry to impress on the red carpet. The talented actress and Hollywood beauty has worn some of the most iconic dresses ever, including her sheer burgundy Elie Saab Oscars gown.
So it comes as no surprise that we were blown away, yet again, but this classic black Elie Saab number as she attended the Global Icon Film Awards last night. Featuring a seductive slit up the side, sheer panels and only one sleeve, this couture dress was guaranteed to turn heads on the red carpet.
Sadly we don’t all have a plethora of premieres and award ceremonies to attend this season (or ever), but if you’re keen to channel Halle’s evening look for your next black tie affair, shop our pick of the best one-shouldered dresses out there to find your perfect fit. We love Missguided’s budget-friendly array of wardrobe staples. Team their Pavtitra dress (below) with a pair of silver stilettos and a slick of red lipstick for maximum impact.
Bloom into summer in a floral slip dress
Myleene Klass has got a new man. But the television presenter and classically trained musician hasn't got a new dress!This pretty print sun dress is naturally from Myleene's own collection for Littlewoods (she's rarely seen in anything else) but it's from last summer's line. She was spotted wearing it this time last year but we love a celebrity who recycles their clothing. It makes them just like the rest of us...
But who can blame her for busting out this cute frock again? It's perfect for a sunny day and while it may be last year's, the print and cut are still totally on trend. And we have to say Myleene has styled it perfectly, opting for a battered pair of biker boots and a well cut androgynous coat to contrast against the feminine florals of the dress.
Sadly, last season means it's no longer available to buy but Myleene has designed a similar maxi dress for Littlewoods and you can check it out by clicking the link (right). It also incorporates a green, botanical print and camisole straps and will also work well with ankle boots.
Or keep it short and try one of the dresses we've found elsewhere. Free People can always be relied upon for bohemian blooms or we love Topshop's cute neon version.
Be a bolt from the blue in Cheryl's iconic Saint Laurent heels
It’s safe to say that the gorgeous Cheryl Cole’s style credentials have skyrocketed in the last few months. From her Giuseppe Zanotti stilettos and Alexander Wang bralet, to a plethora of Saint Laurent staples and designer arm candy, this singer sure knows how to shop.
Today’s outfit was no exception either, teaming her classic J Brand sweater with classic white jeans, she finished her look with monochrome accents in the form of a statement Alexander Wang handbag and these super chic Saint Laurent stilettos.
Saint Laurent's signature Paris pumps have been adorning the feet of high profile celebrities ever since they were first released. Made famous by Kim Kardashian (and her countless suede pairs) they have been reinvented for the new season with these snazzy monochrome lightning bolts.
So, if you’re keen to channel Cheryl’s sleek monochrome look, head to Matches to pick up the exact style now! Or, check out Nine West's Juana stilettos (below) for a budget-friendly approach to the look.
