Despite her sometimes-very-questionable outfit choices, we must admit: our mammies basically built the foundation for our love of clothes and fashion. 

From where to shop for bargains to how to dress for an interview, our mothers have thought us a lot. 

But in celeb-ville it's a toally different ball game. Not only do these mothers show their daughters how to dress, sometimes they actually dress the same and look just as young as their offspring while doing so. 

Here are the top stylish mother-daughter duos:

 

Goldie Hawn and Kate Hudson

These two often look like sisters rather than mother and daughter. Maybe it's to do with the fact that they can both pull off tight LBDs. 

 

Jada Pinkett Smith and Willow Smith

At the beginning of Willow's career, mum Jada let her develop her own sense of style – and it definitely paid off. The pair keep things classic, with Willow adding a younger edge to outfits.

 

Cindy Crawford and Kaia Gerber

Cindy and her daughter pretty much have the same face, as well as the ability to look gorgeous in front of the camera at all times. We're jealous. 

 

Demi Moore and Rumer Willis

Who is the mother here? Demi is never afraid to go for the younger look – and it pays off as she looks nearly as young as her stylish daughter. 

 

Melanie Griffith and Dakota Johnson

The mother-daughter duo walked the red carpet together for this years Academy Awards and both looked beautiful and elegant. With extremely similar body shapes it's not hard to see where Dakota found her fashion sense.

While creams and washes can keep acne at bay, you can actually help clear up your skin through your diet. 

What you put into your body reflects how it looks on the outside, after all.

So if you want to keep blemishes at bay, try incorporating the following foods into your diet.

Your skin will be glowing and clear in no time.

Oily fish

Oily fish like salmon or tuna provides your body with biotin, a B vitamin that produces fatty acids and metabolises amino acids. A deficiency of biotin can cause – among other things – scaly skin, which clearly, no one wants.

 

Chia seeds

Omega-3 fatty acids help maintain cell membranes by protecting the skin and also providing it with moisture. Chia seeds are rich in these fatty acids – so chomp down on a few a day.

 

Almonds

Almonds are packed with vitamin E, which helps you maintain healthy skin. As well as keeping your skin glowing, vitamin E also protects your skin from damage caused by the sun (just don't replace it for sun screen!).

 

Sweet potatoes

Eating a produce-rich diet provides your body with lots of water, which keeps your skin and cells hydrated. Loading up on colourful veg, such as sweet potatoes, has been shown to enhance your skins colour, making it bright and radiant. 

 

Sunflower seeds

These little seeds provide excellent nutrients to help your skin recover from free radicals in the environment. Eating a handful of these a day will help keep your skin glowing, while fighting away any nasty infections.

Candice Accola's family is about to get bigger!

Candice, who plays Caroline Forbes on the hit TV show The Vampire Diaries, announced she is pregnant in the best way possible. 

The actress shared the beautiful snap of herself over the weekend. In the picture she is surrounded by husband, Joe King and her two step-daughters Ava and Elise.

The whole group point to Candice's stomach, which is labelled 'BABY' on a white t-shirt. 

"Sometimes a Saturday is best spent painting t-shirts and taking an awesome family photo," she captioned the pic. "Happy Monday everybody! #ThatAintNoBurritoinMyBelly Thank you to our friend @softspiritstrong for coming over and snapping this sweet pic."

Joe, who is part of the band The Fray, wore a matching white T-shirt that had "SUPERDAD" written on it.

The singer and actress tied the knot just over a year ago and this will be their first child together.

This is Candice's first marriage and baby, but it's King's second marriage and the new addition will be his third child.

We can't wait to see how cute the baby is!

Vanessa Hudgens opted for a different date to last nights VMAs and we're so glad she did because SHEmazing! HQ now have a new style crush.

Vanessa brought along her younger sister, Stella, to the star-studded event, and the duo wowed the red carpet with their fabulous boho looks.

The High School Musical star flaunted her usual bohemian look, with a rose coloured, low-cut floral gown. She teamed the dress with gold accessories and an embellished rose-gold cast (she broke her finger earlier this month).

Ms. Hudgens, 26, wore her hair plaited like a Grecian Goddess to pull the whole look together.

Stella, 19, opted for a more edgier look as she rocked a dark, vampy lip.

Vanessa's little sister could have been the main star though as she wore an off-the-shoulder cream gown, full of silk detail and embellishment. Swoon.

She went for similar gold jewellery as Vanessa to finish off the look. 

We know Stella is the lesser-known sister, but after this red carpet appearance we're sure she's going to be on every girl's style radar. 

Earlier in the day, Vanessa tweeted behind-the-scenes pics of her and Stella getting ready for the glamorous event.

Oh, how we wish we could be a Hudgen sister.

We all know the one. 

We dodge them in the weight room and God forbid we have to run on the treadmill beside them. 

They just seem to make going to the gym a lot more difficult and way more time-consuming.

If you don't want to be one of these pests, here are a few simple rules for fit-i-quette (fitness etiquette, FYI):

Put it back

No one has hide and seek on their workout routine. People who move equipment around or just drop dumbells wherever they please are the most frequent and annoying offenders. If you move something, always put it back where you found it. 

 

Wipe down equipment

This is just hygienic! Many facilities have a towelette dispenser and mostly all have hand towels. Just grab one and quickly run it along where you were working out. It doesn't take much time and is way more pleasant for the person who is next in line. Nobody wants to sit on another persons sweat. Gross.

 

Ditch your bags

We get that you might be in for a quick morning session but bringing your bags into the workout area isn't just annoying, it's a safety concern too. Don't make fellow exercisers hop over all your stuff. 

 

Ask for help 

Unsure how to use that workout bench? Ask! It may be intimidating asking for help but trainers encourage it. There's no point trying to figure out how to use something for twenty minutes because you're only losing workout time and it will also annoy other people in the gym waiting to use the machine after you. 

 

Tone down the tech

While it might be all well and good to post a motivating snap pre- or post-workout, taking a million selfies during your workout is just frustrating for other people. No one wants to sit and look while you take a picture of yourself on EVERY machine.

We all know that the modern-day Kylie Jenner is close-to unrecognisable from her former self. 

Indeed, not so long ago, the reality TV star and media personality was entirely fresh-faced and au natural. But – as anyone who's weathered those awkward teenage years will know well – a few short years can make ALL the difference. 

Arriving at the VMAs last year in a full-length silk black gown, a then just 17-year-old Kylie certainly turned heads.

But little did we know then just how much further her transformation had to go.

As if to illustrate a point, last night she wore a stunning short creation from Balmain – also one of her sister Kim's favourite designers. 

Sporting a deep tan from her recent jaunts to Mexico and St Barts, she matched the thigh-skimming number with coordinated heels, stacked silver rings and a bronze rectangular clutch. 

She also wore a jet-black wig and dramatic dark eye make-up.

Later that evening, she also changed for the after-ceremony celebrations: although she kept on the same nude shoes, Ms Jenner, 18, decided to see out the night in a black bandage dress which showed off plenty of skin.

Which was your favourite look? Kylie 2014… or either of her two outfits from 2015?

We can't really believe it's the end of August already. #supersadsies.

But as one month ends, another month of new fashion starts. And today, we searched our favourite high-street stores to find the best trends for you to grab before going back to college.

So if you want to up your wardrobe game, SHEmazing! has a few key trends to try to nail for your first-week-of-college outfits:

 

Button-down skirts

It seems the button-down, A-line skirts are here to stay for the next season. As the Seventies trend was HUGE over summer, it's going to stick around for A/W. Give denim or suede a go and you're sure to be on top of the style game when classes start back.

 

Shirt dresses

Shirt dresses are so simple and elegant – as well as super easy to just throw on for your 9am lecture. Chloé and Vivienne Westwood rocked the catwalk with these simple pieces but you are able to get great look-a-likes on the High Street.

 

Boho

The boho babe trend is back for autumn 2015 but this time round, the look has a much darker feel to it. Go for loose silhouettes and layers of moody autumnal colours to be right on trend. 

 

Fluffy

Fluffy bags, coats, gilets and shoes were a major hit on the runway for next season. So if you want to be warm, snuggly and stylish this semester – go for these cute pieces.

One woman has gotten a tattoo on her leg to start conversations about mental illness. 

To everyone who sees the tattoo it looks like "I'm fine", but from her point of view, it says "save me".

Bekah Miles explained in a Facebook post that she decided to get this tattoo after she was diagnosed with depression last year. 

She explained that she wanted to get this tattoo as she is now ready to have a conversation about her mental illness. 

"So today, I got this tattoo. I feel that my leg was the best place for the meaning behind it. When everyone else sees it, they see “I’m fine,” but from my viewpoint, it reads “save me.”

"To me, it means that others see this person that seems okay, but, in reality, is not okay at all. It reminds me that people who may appear happy, may be at battle with themselves."

(Dear mom and dad, please don’t kill me over this permanent choice. I want you to hear me out.)Today, I am coming out…

Posted by Bekah Miles on Sunday, August 23, 2015

"To me, depression is the days that I feel sad for no reason. 
Depression is the mornings that I don’t feel capable of getting out of bed.
Depression is the sleeping too much, or sleeping too little.
Depression is the homework that I never completed, simply because I didn’t feel like I was capable.
Depression is the break downs I have over absolutely nothing.
Depression is the eating too much, or eating too little.
Depression is the nights I begin to cry because I feel so overwhelmed, even though everything is going right. 
Depression is the 50 pounds I carry in my chest at all times. 
Depression is the need to constantly be distracted (being on social media, playing video games, watching movies or shows, or working all the time) because I can’t trust myself with my thoughts for longer than 3 minutes. 
Depression is the friendships that have suffered because of my inability to function. 
Depression is the hurtful thoughts and actions I have towards myself. 
Depression is the tears I have because I don’t know why I feel so worthless, when I know I should feel happy."

This Facebook post has gone viral with over 290,000 shares and over 340,000 likes on Facebook.

Last week, Tyga raised some eyebrows with the lyrics of his latest track stimulated as everyone presumed it was written about his girlfriend who only recently turned 18, Kylie Jenner. 

The includes lines such as "they say she young… I shoulda waited… She a big girl, dawg… When she stimulated."

The song also includes plenty of references to "penetration."

When the song was released we didn't know for sure whether the lyrics were about the youngest of the Kardashian/Jenner clan, but the video for the song has confirmed our suspicions. 

The video shows Tyga writing lyrics and rapping in an enormous beach side Californian mansion before he is joined by beau, Kylie. 

The 18-year-old is first seen rolling up the drive way in a bright green car before she gets out showing off a stunning pair of heels and her pouting lips. 

The couple then pile on the PDA while hanging out in the house, which is something they avoided while Kylie was still under eighteen. 

The 25-year-old raps about being with a younger girl, which we now know to be Kylie, while he lays out some drugs on the table. 

The controversial video in which the pair kiss and cuddle has now confirmed the relationship between the pair which has been rumoured for over a year. 

Kylie is taking after her older sister Kim, who starred in Kanye West's video for Bound 2 in 2013.
