Celebs turn up for the Word Music Awards and Jennifer Lopez makes diva demands

By Andrea Petrou on May 19th, 2010

Cannes may still be going but last night France was hit by another celebrity fuelled event. This time it was the World Music awards 2010 that took place in Mote Carlo.

Paris and Nicky Hilton made their way from the Film Festival to the music event dressed in pink and white dresses respectively while Jennifer Lopez wowed in an animal print frock and today made headlines as a result of her diva like demands.

Rumour has it the diva who also performed at the awards, demanded a helicopter and diamond encrusted headphones amongst other hugely ridiculous things.

Other more down to earth stars that made an appearance included Hayden Panettiere in a short slinky dress and Michelle Rodriguez who went for a LBD for her red carpet appearance.

By Andrea Petrou on May 18th, 2010

Sex and the City 2.jpg

Just when we thought we had enough websites to help us wile away our days another one pops up. But this isn’t just any old site, it’s the queen shopping sites in the shape of Carrie Bradshaw’s closet.

Yes, you read right Sex and The City fans, you can virtually browse the entire contents of Carrie’s wardrobe from your desk.

All you have to do is log onto the official Sex and the City 2 website where you’ll find an image of Carrie’s walk-through closet in her single girl’s New York apartment.

There you’ll find rails and shelves full of her SATC2 outfits and if you scroll across them you’ll not only get info about where they are from but also cheaper alternatives.

Hmmm we have a feeling we might not be doing any work for a very long time…just don’t tell our bosses.

It’s never too late to learn new talents even when you’re already a famous popstar.
Not content with selling millions of albums Lady Gaga has decided to further her fashion fancies.

She’s decided to create her own unique headwear under an internship of milliner Phillip Treacy who has in the past designed headpieces for Ms G’s outrageous outfits.

A spokesman told Vogue: “The request came through quite a while ago.
“They get on well and she has applied for an internship although nothing has been confirmed yet.”

Cheryl Cole to be paid £250,000 to perform at the Cannes Film Festival

By Andrea Petrou on May 18th, 2010

Thumbnail image for Cheryl Cole follicle fakery.jpg

While some celebs are using Cannes as a good excuse to party others are using it to build up their millions.

One example is Cheryl Cole who it is rumoured will be paid a crazy £250,000 to perform a 30-minute show at a party in Cannes.

The singer has been asked by jeweller Grisogono to perform at a dinner, which it is hosting at the Hotel Eden Roc in Cannes.

And if the payment wasn’t enough it also seems Cheryl will be rewarded further for her time by being given a piece from the company’s huge sparkly range.

Some girls have all the luck.

Cannes Film Festival: Celebs dress up for the Chopard 150th anniversary party

By Andrea Petrou on May 18th, 2010

The Cannes film festival isn’t just about premiers and movies, it’s also a time for celebs to let their hair down at after parties and anniversary celebrations.

And last night’s Chopard 150th anniversary party was no different. Stars turned out in their hundreds dressed up to celebrate in style.

IT girl Nicky Hilton went for a white frock, similar to those displayed at the Chanel SS2010 shows while Paris looked gorgeous in blue. And even Lindsay Lohan turned up to the event looking sophisticated in a short white dress complete with on-trend shoulder beading.

Myleene Klass went for something that little bit different in a puff dress and yellow heels while we think Kate Beckinsdale stole the show in her asymmetrical pink frock.

Check out the gallery for the all celeb Chopard styles.

Cannes Film Festival 2010 day 6: The Biutiful Premier

By Andrea Petrou on May 18th, 2010

We may be well into the Cannes Film Festival 2010 but it hasn’t stopped celebrities making an effort with their frocks, in fact as the days go on the dresses just seem to be getting better, and in some cases bigger too.

The Biutiful premier, which took place yesterday saw a huge variety of frocks from the straight and elegant to the big and not so Biutiful.

Naomi Watts as always wowed in a boatneck black long frock, which she teamed up with minimal make-up for the simple yet elegant look. Helena Mattson also opted for this style and dressed it up with 50s style hair and make-up.

Kate Beckinsdale took the red carpet look to racey new heights with her black luxe dress complete with high split and Naomi Campbell went for a mosaic gold sequined dress.

However while slinky dictated the main fashion theme others went for something completely different. Fan Bing Bing opted for the traditional yet tiresome white bridal inspired frock while Adrianna Karembeu went for a grey version of this theme.

Take a look at the gallery and tell us who was your best dressed.

Claudia Schiffer gives birth to a little girl

By Andrea Petrou on May 17th, 2010

Thumbnail image for Claudia Schiffer YSL.jpg

We’re sending out lots of congratulations today and this time the person in question is Claudia Schiffer.

The supermodel has become a mum for the third time, after giving birth to a baby girl on Friday.

Claudia and husband Matthew Vaughn released a statement early on Saturday morning, saying they were ‘proud’ to announce the arrival of their new addition to the family.

The statement added: ‘Mother and baby are doing well.’

They currently have no name for their little bundle of joy but if their other kids names, Clementine and Casper, are go by, then we have a feeling it won’t be a traditional one.

Lara Stone and David Walliams get wed!

A big congrats to Lara Stone and now hubby David Walliams who tied the knot this weekend.

After a whirlwind romance the pair hurried down the aisle and into a reception at Clarigdes hotel yesterday.

Although we have yet to see the frock Lara wore for the ceremony, rumour has it and as we told you a while back, the bride wore a custom made cream lace corset dress, edged with golden chain by Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci.

However, the £30,000 dress didn’t stay on for too long as Lara decided to change into a mini-frock covered in gold and silver sequins, which was also by Riccardo Tisci for the reception.

We think she and her groom look stunning.

Stay tuned for a gallery of guests.

ShinyStyle first looks: Chanel Coco Cocoon collection with Vanessa Paradis

By Andrea Petrou on May 17th, 2010

On Friday we here at ShinyStyle were lucky enough to get a sneak preview of Chanel‘s latest Coco Cocoon bag collection, which hit stores over the weekend.

The famous range, which this year comprises of the signature padded style we’ve all grown to love, has been updated with furs, different colour linings and of course a new face. Gone is Lily Allen and in her place comes Vanessa Paradis.

The model and actress is of course no stranger to the brand. In 2004 Karl Lagerfeld appointed her as the ambassadress of the “Ligne Cambon” handbags. The following year, the designer asked her to pose again, this time for the “New Mademoiselle” bags.
And now she’s been picked for the “Coco Cocoon” handbags line.

View the gallery for a few of the new styles and Vanessa’s ad campaign.

Eva Herzigova goes for a LBD for the Princess of Montpensier premier

By Andrea Petrou on May 17th, 2010

Eva Herzigova Cannes International Film Festival 2010 - Day 5 - 'The Princess Of Montpensier' premiere-400.jpg

While other celebrities are donning long ball gown dresses in a bid to make best dressed lists at this years Cannes Film Fesrival Eva Herzigova decided to go for something totally different.

The model shunned smart frocks and instead went for a LBD complete with stunning black killer heels for the day four premier of The Princess of Montpensier.

We love this almost punk look, which really made Eva stand out and is a much more wearable version of a lot of the other frocks celebrities wear.

What do you think of Eva’s dress? Leave your comments below and let us know.

Cannes 2010: Get the bag that Aishwarya RAI wore to the Robin Hood Premier

By Andrea Petrou on May 13th, 2010

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.jpg

Aishwarya RAI is a name we haven’t heard for a while, but she’s been on our fashion radars ever since her role in Bride and Prejudice and Pink Panther.

The actress who made her debut in the Bollywood film industry is known for her ethnic inspired fashion sense and red carpet dresses and shone in a blue lace and net dress alongside Eva Longoria at the Robin Hood premier at this year’s 2010 Cannes Film festival.

However, it wasn’t just the rouched frock we had our eye on, it was also her gorgeous crystal clutch bag so we did a little bit of research and found out that it’s from Swarovski. And you can get your hands on it too for £560.

It may sound like a lot of money, but it’s not often you can say you have a “red carpet bag”.
