Nowadays, it’s hard to wear a pair of flares without getting noticed; since skinny jeans came into fashion, there is hardly any room for that wide leg cut.

But, don’t be so quick to dump those flares into the bin because with fashion, there’s always a way around making something look ‘current.’

Step 1: Put on the tightest fitting non-skinnies you have.

Step 2: Roll up the leg of your jeans.

Step 3: If there is any extra material hanging off your calves, pull it around from the back towards the front and fold it over to make a tight crease.

Step 4: Roll up the leg of your jeans to hold the crease in place.

Step 5: Put on your thinnest and tightest pair of socks to cover up everything you’ve done so far.

Step 6: Put on your boots and make sure the socks aren’t visible.

They may be residing in last place, but who the hell cares? They’re wearing watermelon helmets!

The Jamaicans are main reason most of us are interested in the Winter Olympics and they continue to give us reasons to support them.

First they played on our love of Cool Runnings, then they came up with their own theme song and now those helmets!

Guys, even if you come in last, you’ll always be first in our hearts.

Niall Horan recently split with Victoria’s Secret model Barbara Palvin but he hasn’t let the grass grow under his feet.

Our favourite One Direction band member was spotted out and about with Selena Gomez over the Valentine’s weekend, which has sparked rumours of romance between the pair.

However, this is not the first time the duo have had their relationship scrutinised by gossip columns.

For the past two years, the “friends” have been subjected to romance rumours but neither have ever denied or confirmed that anything happened.

However, the Mullingar native let everyone know that he was interested in Gomez last year, but unfortunately she was with Bieber at the time.

Niall said: “I like someone that’s cute, someone I can have a laugh with, and I also like people that are American.”

We certainly think the cheeky Irish lad is better for her than Bieber, although we are slightly biased.

Knowing your face shape is as important as knowing your body type. If you don’t know the shape of your face, you won’t know the type of hairstyle that will accentuate your features.

The easiest way to determine your face shape is to pull your hair back, take a hard look in the mirror and examine the widest part of your face.

Oval

  • Your forehead is a tiny bit wider than your chin.
  • The length of your face is about one and a half times its width.

Round

  • The length and width of your face are more or less the same.
  • You have prominent cheeks.

Square

  • You have a square shaped jaw and chin.
  • Your jaw line is nearly the same width as your forehead.

Oblong

  • Longer than an oval face shape and not as wide.
  • You may have a pointy chin.

Heart

  • You have a narrow jaw and pointy chin
  • Both your cheekbones and forehead are wide.

Diamond

  • Your cheekbones are the widest part of your face.
  • You have a narrow jaw line and forehead.

It has been reported that director of Frost/Nixon and A Beautiful Mind, Ron Howard, is in talks with Warner Bros. about creating a live-action adaptation of Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book.

It was originally decided that director of Babel and 21 Grams, Alejandro González Iñárritu, would take on the project but he had to let it go due to scheduling commitments.

Warner Bros. aren’t the only ones with their eyes on a live-action adaptation of the classic however, as Disney are releasing their own under the direction of Friends‘ Jon Favreau in October 2015.

Who knew these wooden pallets could have so many great uses? And we’re not even sure what they’re for in the first place, to be honest.

Find inspiration on how to cheaply and simply update your home for a rustic  look – we love all of these!

Wooden pallets can be used as base for a sofa, a headboard, the base of a bed (if you can afford a mattress and not a bed this is genius!) or a lovely coffee table.

Melissa Joan Hart has admitted to using drugs in the past during an interview with Giulina Rancic for E!

When asked by Giuliana about her good girl image on Sabrina the Teenage Witch, Melissa explains: “It wasn’t that I wasn’t a bad girl. It’s that I never got caught.”

She also admitted to using a range of drugs from marijuana to ecstasy: “I experimented with weed, ecstasy, mushroom and mescaline for about a year and half.”

We are glad that her drug-use is behind her and that she came through her wild days intact!

Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have been taking digs at each other for the past two weeks – but it’s all for a good cause.

The best friends are trying to raise money for their two charities, East Congo Initiative and Water.org.

While filming to promote the charities the two just couldn’t seem to get along – take a look, it’s so funny.

Ben has been using Matt’s absence on Twitter to his advantage and recruiting Jimmy Kimmel in his public roasting of poor Matt, posting tweets, such as: “Matt you there? Right. We will fax you”, “Matt is prob too scared to get on twitter because no one likes him” and our personal favourite: “We’ve printed out this tweet, placed in a suitcase that we’ll courier to Matt.”
