Spotted! Victoria Beckham in thigh high boots at Fashion’s Night Out

90910A2 BECKHAM B GR 02 Spotted! Victoria Beckham in thigh high boots at Fashions Night Out

We’ve always been of the opinion that if you’re going to wear thigh-high boots, you need to keep things reasonably demure on the top half, but Victoria Beckham cares nothing for such fashion “rules” – here she is in thigh high boots and a tiny little mini dress at the Bergdorf Goodman celebration of Fashion’s Night Out. There’s even some cleavage on show, too.

Does she get away with it? Up to you to decide, fashion jurors…

Friday Fun: 80s fashion on the Sex and the City set

FP 3580175 Sex And the City Friday Fun: 80s fashion on the Sex and the City set

It’s as we suspected: Sarah Jessica Parker + Madonna-from-the-80s = secretly the same person.

And Charlotte STILL manages to look prissy in neon green and while committing a sneakers-with-skirt crime.  If you think that’s bad, though, wait until you see Kim Cattrall:

If Kelly Osbourne is ever looking for a pair of earrings to wear with the “everything but the kitchen sink” necklace she wore earlier this week, Alexander McQueen has just the thing for her.

Handbag of the Week: Jimmy Choo textured leather Blythe handbag

jimmy choo blythe handbag Handbag of the Week: Jimmy Choo textured leather Blythe handbag

Jimmy Choo – best known for shoes, but pretty handy with the ol’ handbags, too, as this ‘Blythe’ bag demonstrates. At £1,150 it falls into the “fantasy” category for most of us, but if you do want to try and justify a purchase, it’s the kind of handbag you’d probably have forever, be able to carry everywhere, and which would comfortably hold all of your daily essentials. Oh, and if you don’t like the colour shown, it’s also available in black, which would possibly be more versatile.

If all of that convinced you, you can but it direct from the Jimmy Choo website.

Lady Gaga in “Better Dressed Than Usual” shocker

FP 3573799 ANG Lady Gaga 09 Lady Gaga in Better Dressed Than Usual shocker

There’s no easy way to say this, and we know some of you will be deeply shocked by it, but we’re going to say it anyway: we think Lady Gaga has been looking, dare we say it, quite good recently. We’re not sure if this is just a comparative thing  – when you’ve been known to walk around in a flesh coloured bodysuit and not much else, almost anything will seem like an improvement – but we really quite like the gold dress shown above, for instance. And this one:

A gift for a handbag addict: Yazbukey’s cube purse

Yazbukey cube purse A gift for a handbag addict: Yazbukeys cube purse

Ooh! Presents! And it’s not even our birthday! (Not until the 26th, anyway. We’ll be three.) We think, on balance, we’d probably prefer a box with something in it as opposed to a box that just looks like it might have something exciting in it, but if you’re a handbag addict, or know someone who is, these cube purses by Yazbukey look like they’ve already been gift-wrapped. They’re £163 and you can buy them here.
