We love these quirky and stylish outfits from the royal wedding

Guests from all over the world turned up to show their support for Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s wedding.

Alongside the royal family came Demi Moore, Liv Tyler, Pippa Middleton, Robbie Williams, Stephen Fry, and so many more.

Most of the people in attendance adhered to the royals’ dress code – day dresses and tailcoats.

However, there were a few fashion favourites that broke the rules, choosing a more quirky style that we absolutely adored,

Here are our top picks that made the boldest statements:

1. Cara Delevingne

Cara has been the talk of the royal wedding. She looked captivating in her sleek suit and top hat. Her skinny tie and fitted look was a chic choice, and paired with black heels, her look broke the rules in the best way.

2. Lady Melissa Percy

Shown on the right, the youngest daughter of the Duke of Northumberland had no problem making a statement of the fashion variety. Her powdered blue jumpsuit strikingly stood out from the sea of autumn coloured dresses around her.

3. Ellie Goulding

Singer Ellie Goulding wore a silver, Kimono-styled dress with a vintage ruffle along the bottom. Its stiff collar and flared sleeves, along with the sparkling, Christmas colour, set apart her dress from the rest of the guests.

4. Sarah Ferguson

The Duchess of York found the perfect accessory to match her fun and dynamic personality for her daughter’s wedding. Her matching emerald hat had gorgeous gold detail that stiffly stuck out from both sides.

5. Cressida Bonas

Prince Harry’s ex still remains close to the family and looked beautiful in her royal blue ensemble.The velour piece featured navy vine designs across it and was paired with an adorable matching headband.

All of the women wore their quirky fashion pieces with confidence and looked stunning in their trendy debuts.

Katie Piper’s attacker has been released from jail.

In August, the Strictly Come Dancing star discovered that the man who had scarred her for life would be back on the streets of England.

Although this caused her distress, she credited her role on the dancing show to distracting her from “this difficult time”.

“It was important to put my message out to my friends, supporters and followers. This is a really difficult time for me," she wrote. "I am trying to come to terms with this decision and this is something I need to deal with."

And now it appears that the court has followed through with their ruling.

Stefan Sylvestre, who was given a life sentence for his crimes, is out on parole after serving just nine years in prison, according to The Mirror.

The Strictly star has been managing her anxiety about the stressful situation through mediation and shared her feelings about the news on her Instagram.

She shared the quote: “Go within every day and find the inner strength so that the world will not blow your candle out,” – Katherine Dunham.

Katie has found her inner strength to deal with the situation at hand and has kept herself thinking positively, finding the confidence to continue on through the stress.

“Thank you for all the messages, birthday wishes and encouragement for tonight, very kind of you all!” she said.

“Using mediation to stay calm and centred today. See you on the ballroom floor tonight.”

The spirited survivor recently celebrated her 35th birthday on Friday, October 12th, and this was the last news she wanted to hear.

Nevertheless, she is showing insurmountable courage and dedication to her current role and credits her fans and loved ones for encouraging her through this difficult time.

Katie was the victim of an acid attack in nine years ago when her boyfriend hired Sylvestre to through sulphuric acid on her.

Scarred for life but stronger than ever, the model has helped so many burn victims since then.

Him and his wife Vogue also bought their boy a knitted hoodie designed to make the wearer look like a tiny rabbit.

Complete with dotted eyes, long whiskers, and floppy ears, baby Theodore could not look cuter in the warm coat.

The parents adore their son’s fascination with the furry creatures – after all, it does make for some precious pictures.

Vogue has been equally as excited with their family’s newest addition and has been capturing images of her son shining with joy.

Theodore is the spitting image of his father; however, he appears to have his mum’s modelling skills.

Vogue and Spencer welcomed their first child into the world about a month ago and are still adjusting to life as new parents.

“But we’re back in December and I don’t know what they’ve got in store for me.”

We will have to wait and see if the news of Sophie’s pregnancy will lengthen this break at all, but for now, it seems we can count on the speedy return of James to the screen.

We are so happy for the Corrie star and wish him and his girlfriend all the best in their new journey together.

It is giving us all the feels!

Taking his little girl in his arms, he cannot pull his gaze from her tiny face. He lingers over each of her features – her button nose, chubby cheeks, and baby soft skin.

We all fancied at least one of the Jonas Brothers back in the day when we listened to Lovebug on repeat and were convinced one of them would fall in love with us when we met at their concert.

Ah, a teen can dream.

It’s safe to say we were slightly (very) heartbroken when Nick Jonas announced he was engaged to actress Priyanka Chopra.

“I've always known it had to be Tiffany. I just knew it since I was a kid. First, it was Breakfast at Tiffany's that did it for every girl in the world, and then, of course, Sweet Home Alabama came and put a stamp on it that it has to be Tiffany!"

"Since I was a little girl, it was just something that was stuck in my head. And I may have said that, and I guess he remembered,” Priyanka gushed.

There’s no doubt that Amy Winehouse was a legendary singer.

She left her mark on music, paving the way for many singers to follow in her footsteps.

And now, due to modern technology, it appears she will be touring once again – as a hologram of course.

It has been seven years since her passing and to commemorate her talent, her hologram is set to continue her legacy.

She will be backed by a live band, backup singers, and stage effects as well – everything is as her previous performances were.

The tour was announced by Amy’s father Mitch and Base Hologram CEO of productions Marty Tudor at the Amy Winehouse Foundation’s annual gala in London.

Her father reminisced on his daughter’s musical talents and achievements, stating that he believes the tour to be a fantastic idea.

“This is a dream for us,” he said. “To see her perform again is something special that really can’t be put into words.

“Our daughter’s music touched the lives of millions of people and it means everything that her legacy will continue in this innovative and groundbreaking way.”

He said that proceeds from the tour will go towards the Amy Winehouse Foundation.

The foundation is dedicated to helping prevent the effects of drug and alcohol misuse on young people and to support, inform and inspire vulnerable and disadvantaged young people to help them reach their full potential.

The world tour will take place next year and has already excited Amy’s dedicated fans all over the globe.

This brilliant sarcastic song has gone viral and we absolutely love it!

Lynzy Lab Stewart, a young Texan singer, has had enough of the all too common comments she hears from men.

One in particular has enraged her into writing an important message to women everywhere.

President Donald Trump recently stated that it was a “very scary time for young men in America” during the Brett Kavanaugh trial.

Wait…for men? Lynzy thought the perfect response to this statement would be best communicated through song, and she could not have been more right.

Strumming her ukelele, the talented singer began putting things into perspective for the President, explaining how life for a young woman is.

“I can’t walk to my car late at night while on the phone. I can’t open up my windows when I’m home alone. I can’t go to the bar without a chaperone.

“I can’t wear a miniskirt if it’s the only one I own. I can’t use public transportation after 7pm. I can’t be brutally honest when you slide into my DMs. I can’t go to the club just to dance with my friends, and I can’t ever leave my drink unattended.”

“But it sure is a scary time for boys. Yeah, gentlemen! Band together, make some noise. It’s really tough when your reputation’s on the line, and any woman you’ve assaulted could turn up anytime,” she sang sarcastically.

Lynzy’s words have aligned with a lot of people’s response to the Kavanaugh trial, already gaining over 11 million views.

Hollywood stars such as Mark Ruffalo, Ellen Degeneres, and Jimmy Kimmel have re-tweeted her video, commenting on how spot on she is with the lyrics.

It has been a blustery autumn so far, and we have rarely let our legs out in the cold air – let alone the sunlight.

Sadly, we have bid adieu to our summer holiday bronze and have been forced to confront the fact that we will not get it back any time soon.

Or can we?

Originally costing €130, you can buy the set in Boots for just €49.99 – but act fast because it’s only available this week (until October 17th).

The self-tanning range combines naturally derived ingredients like red berry erythrulose, aloe vera, cocoa butter, and Vitamin E that will revitalise and nourish dry and damaged skin while maintaining a gorgeous tan.

If your costume isn't even started and the thought of a party makes you cringe – we've got you gal.

There's no fear for staying-in, and since October 31 is a Wednesday, it gives us more of an excuse to get into our jammies straight after work, close the curtains and shut out the world.

But we've got some FAB ideas on how to make this Halloween one to remember – for all the right reasons. 

1. Movie Night

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by MAKANAN POPULER & MAKANAN HITS (@laperkelenger) on

You don't have to be a horror fan to have a scary movie marathon. There are plenty of thrillers that won't give you nightmares.

Compile a list or check out some of our recommendations, grab some spooky snacks and get watching.

And with this October weather, the only thing you'll be missing by staying in, is the rain.

2. Pamper Night

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Lush Cosmetics North America (@lushcosmetics) on

Get the bath running, light some candles or burn some divine incense and dive into a Halloween pamper session. 

Lush has you covered for all the holiday bath bomb treats, from vegan, plastic-free Sparkly Pumpkin Bubble Bars, to Monster's Ball Fizzer. 

Give your skin an October make over, and scrub away those bad vibes, with Lush's Magic Crystals – it'll have you bewitched. 

3. Girls Halloween night-in

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Myriam (@myristica_me) on

If the thoughts of being alone on Halloween is creeping you out – grab the girls and enjoy a night in together.

It's an ideal time for bonding, catching up and you could even try your hand at carving up a pumpkin – plus, you'll all roll in fresh for work the next day.

If pizza, movies or pampering as a group sounds appealing to you – get dialling and organising.

4. Self-care scare

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by @growing.beans on

As the end of the year is just weeks away, this is the perfect excuse to take some time out for yourself.

Pick up a journal, and get writing, painting or use any creative outlet you have to look back at how far you've come in the last 10 months.

Set some goals for the remainder of 2018 and make a list of what you're grateful in life for. It maybe simple but we generally don't make the time to do things like these.

5. Family fun

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

A post shared by Danielle Mara (@danimaracreative) on

If you've got younger kids in the family, why not offer to help them out with their make up and costumes.

Particularly if you're hella talented with make up, they mightn't be grateful (age depending) on the hours you put in making them look spookatular – but one day they will – (make sure you take 6 million pics – you need collateral for the future).

And you can bet, their parents will be delighted. 

Added bonus for this one; you might get to help with their mountain of sweets they bring home and once they go to bed – it's fair game.

When we think of thrillers, horror and books that psychologically messed us up – Stephen King's name comes to mind. 

He is the King (sorry, couldn't help the pun), of creating some of the darkest worlds and fantasies, such as IT and The Shining.

His book Pet Sematary has once again been adapted into a film, after it was adapted from the book in 1989. 

The remake got the go ahead in December and the trailer alone will have you hopping out of your seat.

The spooky tale follows a family that has relocated out of Boston, and bought a beautiful house with a whole forest as a back garden – sounds lovely, right? – WRONG.

Jason Clarke stars as a doctor, Louis Creed who is initially very happy that his family is now living in the country, until tragedy strikes when their toddler dies in a car accident.

Actor John Lithgrow takes on the role of their friendly neighbour, Jud Crandall, who shows them the forest or rather the misspelled "pet sematary".

Little do they know it contains the power to bring anything that was buried there back to life – enter the creepy.  

Lithgrow tells the audience in the trailer to the beat of some freaky drums: "It was a myth. Kids used to dare each other to go into the woods at night. They knew the power of that place. They feared it. Those woods belong to something else … The ground is bad…"

"It maybe just some crazy folk tale But there is something out in those woods. Something that brings things back. Sometimes dead is better." – Grim.

To add in the extra chill factor, it shows children masked as animals carrying a rather large cross through the woods…Oh – and their family cat is back from the dead.
