Ooh, we love the sound of this!

A few weeks ago we did a piece on Zooey’s great style – now we can have it for ourselves. The actress is designing a capsule clothing collection with Tommy Hilfiger at the moment.

The collection will be called To Tommy, From Zooey and each piece will be named after Zooey’s friends. What a nice idea.

Speaking about the collaboration, Tommy recalled the first time he and Zooey contemplated working together: “She was wearing this vintage jumpsuit. I complimented her on it, and she told me she loves vintage. Somehow, the conversation went from loving vintage to possibly doing a capsule collection with her”.

We are really looking forward to seeing the great collaboration of preppy Hilfiger navy and reds mixed with Zooey’s great retro style.

Kristen doesn’t really do everyday style, preferring to wear her comfy jeans, t-shirts and vans, but one thing she really can do is red carpet style. Here are some of our favourite looks.

We love how this burgundy jumpsuit really suits her slightly punky look.

The beige dress is beautiful on her and we love the lace and the bodice style.

Red dresses are classic and this one is a little dangerous with the plunging neckline.

Her final look is a little more relaxed than the rest, but looks smart with that white shirt and some high heels.

This makes for a perfect Valentine’s Day brekkie. It only takes a couple of minutes to make so you could enjoy it in bed next to your other half almost immediately.

What you’ll need:

  • 2 slices wholemeal bread
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp milk
  • Icing sugar for dusting (optional)

What you’ll need to do:

  1. Combine the egg and milk in a small mixing bowl.
  2. Use a heart-shaped cookie cutter to cut the shapes out of the slices of bread.
  3. Meanwhile, heat a fry pan on a medium heat and melt a knob of butter on it.
  4. Swirl it so it covers the base of the pan.
  5. Cover each slice of the heart-shaped bread in the egg and milk mixture.
  6. Once both sides are covered, place in the hot frying pan.
  7. Cook until both sides are golden brown and remove from heat.
  8. Continue to do this until all bread slices are done.
  9. Serve on a plate and scatter the raspberries over the hearts, followed by some dusting with icing sugar (optional)

Little Monsters will be super excited to hear that Lady Gaga is bringing her ARTPOP tour to Ireland later this year.

The singer will play the O2 in Dublin on October 17th and anybody with a significant other may be interested to hear that tickets for the gig go on sale on Friday, February 14th.

If this tour is even NEARLY as good as her previous Monster Ball concerts, you’re definitely going to want to get a ticket.

Saying no to someone who clearly likes you doesn’t always come easy. Since every man is different, it can be hard to figure out just how to get the message across.

Here are a few suggestions to let him down easy:

Be honest with him
If you tell him the truth from the get-go then you won’t be leaving him with false hope.

Remind him that you see him as a brother
Ok, maybe this isn’t too nice, but at least he will see that you do have feelings for him, even if they’re not romantic feelings. – you still care.

Find someone better suited to him
Reassure him that just because he can’t have you, it doesn’t mean he won’t have success with other women. Set him up with someone you think he could get on well with.

Instead of obsessing with fad diets and intense exercise to lose weight, here’s an idea that can help you get there without moving an inch.

Scientist have recently discovered that temperatures can have an effect on how many calories you burn – sounds too good to be true, right?

Apparently, being cold is a ‘cheap way to get slim’ .

Evidence collected in a study by Dutch scientists showed that cold temperatures can hugely increase the amount of calories burned up rather than storing them as fat.

Commenting on the findings, the study’s lead researcher said “We hypothesise that the thermal environment affects human health and more specifically that frequent mild cold exposure can significantly affect our energy expenditure over sustained time periods.”

So what does all that science-talk mean?

It means, turn down the heating and shiver those calories away.

Dry shampoo is definitely a contender for being the best invention since sliced bread. It has become every girl’s BFF and is most likely in your handbag right now.

Unfortunately, while it has become a hero in hair emergencies, there is a knack to using it and not every girl has mastered it.

Follow these easy steps to give your hair life without leaving random grey patches.

  • Pick a brand that is close to your hair colour, especially if it is dark
  • Brush all the tangles out of your hair.
  • Hold the can about 15 cm away from your hair focusing on the roots.
  • Use continuous spraying rather than spritz.
  • Don’t rub it in.
  • Leave it to settle – about five minutes.
  • Brush through your hair again.
  • A few drops of essential oil at your tips will leave you smelling like you just jumped out of the shower.

Ta-da!

Remember, dry shampoo is not a replacement for washing your hair…

This February, Italy will be a buzz of colour and excitement as it hosts a number of spectacular carnivals throughout the country.  What better way to celebrate the end of January than by booking a weekend trip and embracing some Italian culture.

Here are our top three favourites:

Carnival of Venice (15th Feb –  4th Mar 2014)
Head along to Venice and join the world’s most famous masked “open city” party. The beautiful St Mark’s Square will be home to traditional events and palaces throughout will host masked balls.

Carnival of Acireale (15th Feb – 4th Mar 2014)
This carnival in Catania is one of the most exciting, beautiful and fun in all of Sicily. This one is slightly unusual in that the spectators can roam the parade without being enclosed behind barriers.

Carnival of Fano (16th, 23rd Feb and 2nd Mar 2014)
The Fano Carnival in the Marche Region is the oldest in Italy and is a buzz of floats, masquerades and fireworks. This one might appeal to someone with a sweet tooth as tonnes of sweets are launched from the floats.

It will be hard to choose just one.

Award-winning stylist, Errol Douglas picked his top hair looks from this year’s Grammy Awards – there’s no way this was a walk in the park but here’s two that made the cut.

For Katy Perry’s hair do:

  • Brush your hair back to make sure there are no tangles
  • Tie it up with two rubber bands for extra security
  • Separate your ponytail in half and tightly twist one strand
  • Wind the twisted strand of hair around the pony and securely fasten it
  • Repeat the same process for the second strand of hair
  • Don’t forget to put on loads of hair spray

For Rita Ora‘s hair do:

  • Apply bendy rods onto your hair before the day of your event
  • Don’t forget to use plenty of hairspray
  • Remove the bendy rods for cute and luscious curls

Everyone is aware of the dangers that come with smoking – cancer, stroke, heart disease, not to mention bad breath and yellow teeth. Unfortunately, trying to breaking the habit can be hard and frustrating, especially as cravings can overpower your motivation for a healthy lifestyle.

However, as these Hollywood stars show, there is light at the end of the tunnel. So, why not take a leaf out of their book and finally put the cigarettes to rest.

Matt Damon
Matt was a smoker until he went to see a hypnotist. After three sessions he said his cravings were gone.

Jennifer Aniston
The former Friends star swears by the power of exercise to quit. Jennifer undertook an extreme detox to cleanse her body and after taking up yoga she said farewell to cigarettes and caffeine.

Gisele Bundchen
Gisele Bundchen used simple determination to break her habit. One day, the former Victoria’s Secret model decided that she wanted to be healthier and so quit.

Charlize Theron
Charlize Theron took a leaf out of both Matt’s and Jennifer’s book and quit her three packs a day habit via hypnotherapy, yoga and Pilates.

It’s tough but you can do it!

If you saw the Grammy Awards this weekend you would have noticed that Beyoncé is looking very lean and sculpted having lost a considerable amount of weight.

Don’t get us wrong, she looks incredible as always which has us wondering if it is down to the 22-day vegan challenge that she undertook with husband Jay-z at the end of last year.

Bey took to her Instagram account during the challenge, updating yummy vegan food pictures to her 9.5 million followers.

While we also love our Bootylicious Beyoncé(2000’s joke, sorry)  , she also looked amazing at the weekend.

We wish we could get our hands on some of this scrumptious-looking vegan food. Well done to them for trying to lead a healthier lifestyle – it certainly paid off!

The actress is involved in Sodastream’s new campaign and this new ad was due to be released during the Superbowl on the Fox network in the US.

However, due to the reference at the end of the advert when Johansson says, “Sorry, Coke and Pepsi,” the ad has been banned and must be redone to remove competitors names.

Pepsi and Coke are big sponsors of Fox so this shouldn’t come as much of a surprise to Sodastream.

The ad centres around proving that Sodasteam is not only healthier but is less wasteful than other soda brands.
