Brits go back to black: Cheryl Cole and Adele celebrity style

We’ve been getting so excited about all the spring fashion coming in and getting used to seeing bright colours on the red carpet that we almost forgot that it was still winter.  Then it rained on our hair and we remembered.  Still, it was good to see two of our favourite Brits sporting long sleeved semi-gothic black numbers at the BRITS last night.

Adele, who gave an incredible performance last night, chose a sparkly number with sheer sleeves while Cheryl Cole also sparkled in her Stella McCartney floor-length long-sleeved dress with smokey eyes and swept back hair. 

 Here are four of our favourite Brits inspired dresses from the stores,

Sheer sleeves dress, £20; black lace open back dress, £30;  both Dorothy perkins

Samantha sequin dress, £160, French connection; baroque beaded dress, £85, Oasis

David Koma: From LFW to Cheryl Cole to Topshop

Designer David Koma has teamed up with Topshop to create a very exclusive capsule collection.  For those who aren’t so familiar with David Koma’s designs, he’s the man who did this.

Cheryl Cole wore this dress during 2009′s X Factor finals,  dividing critics and giving Simon Cowell something to snigger at during the show (it was apparently rather revealing on the sides).  But it did David Koma no harm, with the dress selling out from stores within the week,  not bad for a designer who’d only graduated a few months earlier.

Now the 25-year-old designer, whose fans also include Lady Gaga, Beyoncé and Megan Fox has teamed up with Topshop to create a capsule range (pictured above) of five pieces.

The collection, with items priced between £100 and £350, stays true to his designs with his signature shapes, metalwork and fabrics making this Topshop’s most premium collection to date.  But with only 30 pieces of each of the styles available, it will also be their most limited.

The collection goes on sale from 10 February.

Give winter the cold shoulder

As the party season approaches one question reigns supreme: to sleeve or not to sleeve.   For the indecisive among us, the answer is simple: we’ll have one of each please!

X Factor beauties Cheryl Cole and Danni Minogue have embraced the peekaboo shoulder look with Cheryl rocking a short gold number last week and Danni wearing a one-shoulder dress, not once, not twice, but five times so far in the finals.

The new LBD

The classic little black dress gets a modern twist with the appearance of ruffles, big bows across one shoulder, or one long sleeve. We love these two which are demure, simple but with enough character to make a party statement.

Asymmetry at the office

Not just for party time, update your office look and add with a little bit of an added zest with one of these two neutral-coloured numbers. The two high street dresses add an understated elegance to any office look.  Just make sure you keep a jacket handy in case one shoulder gets a blast of winter air.

Maximum effect

The one shouldered maxi is Danni Minogue’s signature look this year favouring a full length asymetrical number over a Cheryl Cole mini.  Whether they’re flamenco or toga inspired dresses these dresses will make for a head-turning look, perfect for a more formal New Year’s Eve shindig.

Spend or Save: Cher Lloyd’s leggings

We all know that X Factor is every bit about the fashion as it is about the performances.  Every Monday the office is full of X Factor gossip and whether it was Cheryl or Dannii who won in the style stakes, and everyone has an opinion on what the contestants wore!

Last week Cher Lloyd wore a very similar similar pair of leggings to the Sass & Bide pair that Cheryl Cole wore in her music video for ‘3 words‘. While Cheryl’s designer leggings cost a whopping £890, Cher’s version were from London label, Arrogant Cat.

We’ve found another fabulous high-street version of the orginal Sass & Bide leggings from River Island. At only £49.99 these River Island Black diamante knee leggings are a steal, and you’ll still have money left over for the rest of your outfit!

How to wear bright red hair

Bold, bright hair shades are red hot right now! We’ve seen a number of brunettes vamping up their look and embracing the redhead vibe.

At our Christmas light switch on, Rihanna said that she’d been wanting to go red for a while and she’s loving her new look. We agree – she looks amazing!

Want to follow in the oh so fashion-forward footsteps of celebs like Rihanna and Cheryl? Here are a few words of advice from hair expert, Danny DeFreitas of Toni&Guy Westfield London.

“Rihanna is working a statement red, but dont forget there are so many shades to choose from. It’s important to find the right one for you!

To achieve that kind of colour intensity on a naturally dark shade, like Rihanna’s, hair often needs to be pre-lightened. It’s advisable to get some expert advice to  see which tone of red suits you best. We offer free colour consultations at Toni&Guy, so please visit us.

For people who love being on trend but feel like this all over colour is perhaps too much of a statement, then think about going for some under-colour techniques. Try working glimmers of red throughout the hair or adding panels. You can still create and achieve something gorgeous, but a lot less maintenance.”

Cheryl Cole: get the look

It seems that us Brits can’t get enough of Cheryl Cole. Part of the excitement of The X Factor is checking out what Chezza’s wearing. We love the fact that she’s willing to try out different looks and hairstyles each week.

Whether she’s going for all out glam or more of a rock chick vibe, Cheryl (nearly) always gets it right.

We spotted Cheryl in this little number and thought it was oh so her. She takes a cute little girly dress but gives it an edge by teaming it with a fitted leather jacket. We love the contrasting textures which are such a hot trend this season.

If you want to try this look for yourself, head to Lipsy. There are great prom dresses, especially in the Pixie Lott collection. Plus there are some very affordable leather jackets too.

Get Cheryl Cole’s Lashes

Here at Westfield HQ, we’ve always had a soft spot for Cheryl Cole, especially her immaculate make-up. This is one girl you can’t imagine going barefaced in the gym! She does the smokey eye and nude lips look really well and now we’ve discovered the secret behind her gorgeous lashes – L’Oreal’s Telescopic Mascara.

Yes, for just £9.99 you too could have lashes as flutterable as Cheryl’s! She said of the mascara ‘I discovered it one day and that was me sold. If I get my hair and make-up done, my eyelashes and eye brows are two things I always do myself’.

So, we’re sure that Cheryl will be dashing to the shops to snap up L’Oreal’s latest wonder mascara, Telescopic Explosion – well actually as she’s the face of L’Oreal, she’ll probably get it for free, but we’re sure she’s going to love it still!

It has all the attributes of the regular Telescopic Mascara but comes with a small, globe-like wand, which allows you to get into the corners easily and ensure your lashes are truly gorgeous all over. Snap it up now for £9.99 from Boots, Superdrug and all good beauty counters to give your peepers the Cheryl Cole treatment.

Go Nude This Spring!

Don’t panic! We’re not suggesting you roam around in your birthday suit, rather that you embrace the new nude tones for the new season.

Donna Karan, Givenchy and Burberry all showed a plethora of nude shades on the catwalk and as ever, the most fashionable of celebrities have already umped on the flesh tone bandwagon.

Penelope Cruz chose a gorgeous figure-hugging Armani Prive dress for the Italian premiere of Nine, while Drew chose a dramatic dress from Atelier Versace for The Golden Globes. And it’s not just big Hollywood stars who have embraced this trend – Cheryl Cole stepped out looking stunning at a recent German music award show in a stunning Maz Azria dress.

Don’t worry if you haven’t got a spare £4,000 lying around (the cost of Cheryl’s dress apparently), as the high street is being quick to interpret this trend and has already started producing some gorgeous nude delights.

We’ve picked three of our favourites around at the moment, and as this is a trend that is sure to be a super summer hit, we recommend you invest now. Wear a nude coloured dress with black tights or team a flesh-toned jacket with faded skinnies – this is one look that will take you to and beyond the summer months with ease.

L-R: Biker Jacket, £45, Miss Selfridge; Dress, £110, Reiss; Bodycon Skirt, £22, Topshop
