Una Foden and Vanessa White in pretty and prim pastel ensembles at fan signing event

They've been close friends and fellow fashion icons since The Saturdays burst onto the pop scene six years ago.
And it would seem that Una Foden and Vanessa White had swapped style notes as they attended a fan signing event with their bandmates on Monday evening.
Joining Mollie King and Rochelle Humes at Westfield London's Carphone Warehouse, the dazzling duo both opted for prim and pretty pastel ensembles as they hit the store to meet some of their most doting fans.

Here come the girls: Una Foden and Vanessa White both opted for pretty pastel ensembles as they attended a fan signing with their The Saturdays bandmatesm Mollie King and Rochelle Humes, on Monday evening

Una opted for ladylike tailoring in an effortlessly chic baby pink top, which she teamed with flattering grey cigarette pants and a floral statement necklace.
Teetering on black stiletto heels, the 32-year-old singer wore her auburn locks flowing around her shoulders in loose waves as she joined her bandmates in celebration of their latest collaboration with Nokia.
Following her pal's sartorial lead, Vanessa looked equally stylish in a fluffy grey short-sleeved sweater and matching micro-mini, while elongating her petite frame with towering nude heels.

Una certainly seemed thrilled at the prospect of meeting some of the girls' biggest fans, writing on her Twitter page: 'Excited to see all your faces at @WestfieldLondon today! We're at #CarphoneWarehouse for a signing!'
Going in completely the opposite direction when it came to her choice of outfit, Mollie covered up in a chic black trouser suit and heels, while wearing her blonde locks scraped back off her face in a stylish up-do.
Posting a cute selfie on her Instagram page, she wrote after the event: 'Loved seeing so many of you at Westfield today. Thanks for coming down.'

Pictures: Marilyn Manson goes make-up free

As a rock musician, Marilyn Manson made a name for himself in heavy make-up and gothic attire.

But for his new hobby as a budding actor, the star has opted for a more natural look.

Marilyn - real name Brian Warner - made an appearance a awkward-looking waiter on roller skates on his favourite show Eastbound & Down.

Still terrifying: A make-up free Marilyn Manson appears on Eastbound & Down as a rollerskating waiter

In the scene characters Kenny and his wife April are talking about their marital issues when Brian appears to take their order.
Brian is a self-confessed superfan of the series, which tells the story of  a former baseball player who returns to his old middle school to teach physical education.

For years he has been lobbying to get himself a walk-on role in the series - and, finally, it seems to have paid off.

Marilyn Manson's make-up free cameo on HBO show

Not a Rock Show: In the scene characters Kenny and his wife April are talking about their marital issues when Brian appears to take their order.

Not his usual attire: Instead of black leather and goth boots, Brian Warner a.k.a Marilyn Manson, was seen in a pair of mustard yellow shorts and a black shirt

Signature style: The Beautiful People rocker is usually seen in garish gothic make-up and black clothes

The grunge star, who previously had relationships with Rose McGowan and Dita Von Teese, filmed his part last month, but was forced to abandon his famed stage persona to assume a different character.

Previously, he had even written emails to the show's star, Danny McBride, in the hope of landing himself a cameo slot.

'I get weird emails from Marilyn Manson now,' Danny told MTV in 2010. 'He sends me weird emails in the middle of the night of what he's watching on TV, and you can hear him giggling in the background.

'One time he literally sent me a Peanuts special I guess he was watching, sometimes it's Eastbound, infomercials, anything.'

Starring role: Marilyn Manson on the set of Eastbound & Down - a series he is fanatical about

Is that really him? Even Kenny looked surprised to see Marilyn Manson waiting on him and his wife in Eastbound & Down

Do you want fries with that? If Marilyn Manson would ever like to quit his day job he may have found his calling in the service industry

Made In Chelsea's Jamie Laing love triangle intensifies as Lucy discovers Phoebe has a secret BOYFRIEND

Lucy Watson labelled her love rival Phoebe-Lettice Thompson a 'sl*t' and a 'hypocrite' after discovering she had a secret boyfriend on Monday night's episode of Made In Chelsea.
The pair had been battling it out over co-star Jamie Laing for weeks, but the Chelsea love triangle came to a head when Fran Newman-Young told Lucy that Phoebe had jetted off on holiday with her beau.
Fran - another of Phoebe's many enemies in the SW3 area - told Lucy: 'I happen to know that she's going on this holiday with a guy she really likes and has liked for a while.'

Battle of the bitches: Lucy Watson labelled her love rival Phoebe-Lettice Thompson a 's**t' and a 'hypocrite' after discovering she had a secret boyfriend on Monday night's episode of Made In Chelsea

To which the pretty brunette responded: 'She's a s**t.'
Lucy then marched straight off to confront Jamie about the ongoing situation after discovering he had told her best pal Binky Felstead he had 'picked' Phoebe to be with out of the two girls.
She fumed: 'You're playing me and Phoebe off each other, explain yourself. Yes, it was casual but that doesn't mean it's a free pass to do that.'
Jamie tried to justify himself, explaining he wasn't going for Lucy because his best friend Spencer Matthews - who she previously dated - hadn't given their relationship his blessing.

Controversial: The pair had been battling it out over Jamie Laing for weeks, but the Chelsea love triangle came to a head when Fran Newman-Young told Lucy that Phoebe had jetted off on holiday with her beau

Guess what? Lucy took great delight in telling Jamie that Phoebe had gone on holiday with her secret boyfriend

He said: 'You don't want anything and you come with Spencer Matthews' baggage. I'm not going to stand there and try and fight for you, when you're the one playing games.'
To which Lucy exploded: 'Well she happens to be on holiday with her boyfriend, so you're not the only one playing games. You're kind of perfect for each other. You do still have her but she's just got someone else too.'
Earlier on in the dramatic evening, which had seen all the cast converge to watch a showcase of Andy Jordan's music, Jamie had told Binky: 'I pick Phoebe, she said if I commit we can hang.

Spenny's angry: Spencer confronted Jamie over sleeping with Lucy once again - when he had previously vowed he wouldn't

Fuming: Spencer told Jamie his morals were 'skewed' as the pair fought it out

Refreshing: The argument was brought to an immediate halt when Spencer threw a drink in his pal's face in a rather dramatic fashion

'I've got a lot of people hating on me for the Lucy situation. Spencer will not give me his blessing. I've chosen Phoebe and that's the situation.'
Jamie's night went from bad to worse when Spencer later confronted him about sleeping with Lucy again, when he had previously sworn he wouldn't go there.
He raged: 'I thought we spoke about this, I think this is kind of annoying after what we spoke about it. I was trying to be reasonable with you. You had sex with my ex-girlfriend and have now found out you've f**ked her again.
'I just don't like hearing it from other people. When you end up out and about and sleeping with her again.'

What a hypocrite! Lucy looked visibly shocked as Fran told her about Phoebe's secret romance

But the argument was brought to an immediate halt when Spencer threw a drink in his pal's face in a rather dramatic fashion.
Earlier on in the episode, Spencer seemed less than impressed with his BFF's behaviour as he chatted to Oliver Proudlock over a drink.
Speaking about Jamie and Lucy, he said: 'It's just typical behaviour from both of them. From this point onwards, I'll find it very hard to trust him with anything. His morals are completely skewed.
'I'm not angry, I just don't trust him anymore. I could quite easily have hit the roof but he's lucked out. That's his free pass gone.'

Not the best start to the day: Fran and Binky broke the news to Lucy that Phoebe had sneaked off to the boys' camp for the night over breakfast

She did what? Lucy was angry that Jamie had been texting Phoebe behind her back while the girls enjoyed their spa weekend

Emotions running high: Lucy broke down in tears and admitted she didn't like putting her heart on the line when it came to romance

Jamie initially seemed fairly reluctant to take his relationship with Lucy to the next level.
He told Alex Mytton: 'We're just joking around and having fun. I'm not looking that way, I'm not prepared for a relationship. If Spencer has a problem with it, it can't happen. I could find a loophole though.'
The bulk of the drama came when the boys headed off on a camping trip, while the girls decided to treat themselves to a stay at a luxury spa.
And in true Made In Chelsea style, they immediately started discussing their feelings in detail.

She doesn't mince her words: Phoebe fell out with Lucy, Binky and Fran during her time at the spa

Hatching a plan: The platinum blonde later persuaded new pal Louise Thompson that they should sneak away from the spa and join the boys on their camping trip

Sounds like a plan! Despite her later protestations, it didn't take much persuading for Louise to join Phoebe on her midnight adventure

Talking to Phoebe and Rosie about her split from Andy, Louise Thompson said: 'When we first broke up I was happy to be having time apart but I always thought we had a future together.
'We were so in love. I know that I do want to be with him soon so it's complicated. I always said if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. But someone has to make the first move for us to be together.'
Over in the boys' camp, Jamie lamented his romantic situation with Phoebe, Lucy and Spencer.
He said: 'I got a text from him [Spencer] saying I was being shady and basically ranting on about it. So I was going to pull the plug on it, but then we ended up sleeping together again. I do like Phoebe, too.'

Happy days: Phoebe looked like the cat who'd got the cream as Jamie told her he was willing to put all his eggs in her basket

Happy campers: The boys had spent the evening telling ghost stories before Louise and Phoebe arrived on the scene

Meanwhile, the girls all locked horns over a glass of champagne, with Phoebe falling out with Fran, Lucy and Binky all in one go.
Cornering Fran about hooking up with Alex before he turned his attentions to Binky, Phoebe fumed: 'It was the ultimate betrayal, I'm not giving in to the crocodile tears. It really p****d me off. I didn't think you'd go there, and he chose Binky anyway.'
Rolling her eyes left, right and centre, she stormed out of the room when Lucy appeared on the scene - but not before giving her one last dig.
She giggled: 'Jamie says hi, he just text me.'

Spooky! Phoebe and Louise seemed to find themselves amusing as they sneaked up on the boys around the campfire

Awkward! Andy told his ex-girlfriend Louise that he was annoyed she had ruined his night by arriving at the campsite when he was having fun with his friends

It was then that she and Louise hatched a hair-brained scheme to go and visit the boys in their campsite.
She said to her new BFF: 'It was fake crying. This is why I f**king hate spas. Jamie and I have been talking and I've found out where he's camping. Let's go, he wants us to go.'
But the midnight adventure didn't go entirely according to plan, with Andy visibly fuming that Louise had arrived.
He said: 'In the nicest possible way, I don't really want you here. Did you not think I'll let him have fun with his boys? Did you you think it would be fun? What planet do you live on?

Listen up! Phoebe told Fran she was crying 'crocodile tears' as she attempted to justify her former fling with Alex

Aren't spas supposed to be relaxing: Fran and Binky were both equally shocked with Phoebe's behaviour as she interrupted them having a quiet glass of champagne

It's a hard life: The girls treated themselves to a night at a luxury spa to escape the stresses of London

In the wilderness: But the boys went for a totally different approach with their back to basics camping trip

'If I just let it go then I will end up trying to get with you because I fancy you but I don't want to be with you.'
And while Louise was left upset by her former flame's comments, things went slightly better between Phoebe and Jamie.
Discussing their love triangle situation, Jamie said: 'The nice thing about you is that we get on more than you can imagine.'
Explaining her feelings, Phoebe explained: 'Of course I like you, I'm in the f**king woods. You've been hanging out with Lucy and going on her snobby doggy walks. You saying you're confused is the ultimate turn-off.

It's still there: Louise told Rosie and Phoebe that she still had feelings for ex-boyfriend Andy

Relaxing times: Binky chatted to Lucy about the Jamie situation as they enjoyed a back rub

Seething: Earlier in the episode, Spencer told Proudlock how annoyed he was about the Jamie and Lucy situation

'I'm not going to take that risk when you've got your eggs in other people's baskets.'
To which Jamie responded: 'You're different to everyone else, you know that. I can put all my eggs in your basket. I can drop everything.'
The following morning, Phoebe told her ex Alex that she 'couldn't trust' Jamie, while he helpfully informed her that he acted exactly the same way when he was around her arch enemy.
The news of Phoebe and Louise's trip to the woods didn't go down too well with Lucy, who broke down in tears as she came to terms with the situation.
She sobbed: 'I just feel like every time I talk about my feelings, they get thrown back in my face.'
Made In Chelsea returns to E4 next Monday at 10pm.

Love's young dream: Earlier on, Lucy and Jamie seemed to be more loved-up than ever as they went for a romantic stroll along the river

It was going so well: The pair seemed to be getting along great at the start of the episode - making Jamie's decision all the more surprising

Dog days are over: Jamie even accompanied Lucy to Binky's dogs first birthday party
