Stacey Solomon’s Saturday outfit came with rented diamonds

Stacey Solomon.jpg Stacey’s outfit for her X Factor performance on Saturday reminded us a lot of a bridesmaid’s outfit – her dress was even designed (and custom made) by a bridal wear designer, Suzanne Neville. The full-length bronze corseted dress was chosen to fit in with the epic song choice, we’re sure, but it didn’t provide us with much style inspiration, unlike last week’s wet-look leggings. Unless you’re planning on getting married.

Her jewellery was eyecatching, though, and it turns out that the diamond earrings, bracelet and ring she was wearing were worth a massive £100,000. She used jewellery rental service Rent Your Rocks, and us mere members of the public who can’t afford to splash out £54,795 on a diamond cuff can use their services too, which cost from £50. So if you’ve got a special occasion coming up, you might be interested in borrowing some jewellery you’d never be able to afford normally – or you could just go to Topshop and pick up a diamante-encrusted cuff instead. Because, let’s be honest, who’s going to tell the difference.

X Factor: Get Cheryl’s look for less

By lotte on November 17th, 2009

cherylcole-2009nov14.jpg We think Cheryl Cole (or her stylist) must have been looking at our gallery of Strictly-inspired dresses, because on Saturday’s X Factor live show she was wearing a sequined dress just like some of the ones we featured.

Of course, Cheryl’s was Alexander Wang, not Dorothy Perkins, but at least we can get a similar look at a price that suits our budget. Cheryl’s navy blue sequined dress is really wearable, and she looked great in it on Saturday, especially since it was a bit less experimental than some of her other outfits so far. Alexander Wang has had a really great year in 2009, so expect to see a lot more of his designs on celebrities in 2010…

Find a similar purple sequined number (minus the ruching) at www.dorothyperkins.com.

Get the look: Dannii’s X-Factor grecian style dress

By Andrea Petrou on November 9th, 2009

Dannii.jpgWe’ve concentrated so much on Cheryl over the past few weeks that we’ve neglected to mention how good Dannii looks on this year’s X-Factor.

However after her stylish appearances on both Saturday’s and Sunday’s shows, we feel she really deserves to be mentioned in our X-Factor style series.

While Cheryl opted for little dresses in black and red for both days, Dannii really shone through with a white Grecian off the shoulder frock on Saturday, which was designed by Ralph and Russo.

The 1970′s inspired white silk dress, which had a thigh high split and swarovski crystal buckled shoulder sash, cost a bank breaking £1950, but we’ve had a hunt around and found this white frock with a corsage strap from Debenhams, which won’t have you begging for an overdraft at £100.

Team up with a belt and sew on some crystals for an X-Factor style look.
