It can be annoying when you see a celebrity wearing something you’d like to have that you know you can’t afford it.

But who’s to say you can’t get an outfit close enough to the original at a better price?

Of course, we won’t ask you to take up a class in dress making – it’s all about bargain hunting and knowing where to look.

Here’s a Rihanna-inspired look that we put together for our readers so prepare to be SHEmazed…..

Prices: Fur coat: €90 , Jeans: €42, Necklace: €10, Crop top: €19

This Morning presenter Holly Willoughby may have put herself on the wrong side of Kylie Minogue after expressing her opinion on the latest season of The Voice. If it ends in the ring, we know who we’d place our bets on…

Even though the primetime show has been topping ratings, the former The Voice presenter said she doesn’t think that this year’s new judges, Kylie Minogue and Ricky Wilson, have helped with the ratings.

She said: “Have there been any improvements? I wouldn’t say, “The show is so much better this year” at all”.

To add insult to injury, the ITV sweetheart said that she would rather have Jessie J as a mentor than Kylie. She said: “If you’re comparing the coaches, Jessie J was so strong in her critique musically that the singers could really learn something from her…”

She added: “If I was on the show, Jessie would probably be the only person who had a hope in helping me to sing.”

Me-ow!

Carey Hart and Blink 182’s Travis Barker look a little alike, but really?

The Ellen Show accidentally named Pink’s husband Carey Hart as Travis while doing commentary at the Grammy Awards.

At least Pink took it well, tweeting a picture of the mistake and writing, “Oops @TheEllenShow”.

Ellen replied in her typically hilarious way, saying: “You found it! I was making sure you were watching”.

They do look a little similar but we’re pretty sure it’s just the style and the tattoos.

The rumoured couple have been seen going wild out and about and while we’re never ones to party poop, when it ends in someone needing an IV drip, is it a step too far?

Cara uploaded this photo to her Instagram account of herself and rumoured new love Michelle, hooked up to IV drips and holding hands.

Cara later revealed it was an vitamin drip to help with a cold, hmm.

We are not sure which is worse; hooking yourself up to an IV drip for a cold or making it into date night.
