Kate Moss loses her £14,000 engagement ring while partying at the Glastonbury Festival

By Andrea Petrou on June 27th, 2011

Kate Moss lost her £14,000 engagement ring while partying at the Glastonbury Festival.

The supermodel – who was watching fiance Jamie Hince perform with his band The Kills at the music event in Somerset, South West England – was said to be “hyperventilating” after realising she had mislaid the sparkler in the mud.

An insider explained: “Everyone was looking for the ring, with Kate practically hyperventilating at the side of the stage. She was screeching at her mates, begging them to get down on their hands and knees , and trawl through the mud for the sparkler.

“Even Kate was half-heartedly flicking mud around with her welly, trying to unearth the ring.”

However, much to her amusement, Kate – who is due to tie the knot with Jamie this Friday (01.07.11) in Oxfordshire, South East England – eventually found the ring stuck in the bottom of her handbag amongst some tissue.

The source added to the Daily Mirror newspaper: “Two hours later, and still crying, she went to the loo only to root through her bag for a tissue and magically find the ring. It had been there the whole time.

“Kate was cackling hysterically but no one else found it quite so funny.”

The couple are reportedly planning “festival-style” nuptials, with rumoured performances from the likes of Snoop Dogg and Gossip frontwoman Beth Ditto.

Pixie Lott won’t leave home without accessories

By Andrea Petrou on June 27th, 2011

Pixie Lott won’t leave home without accessories.

The ‘Cry Me Out’ hitmaker feels uncomfortable if she hasn’t teamed her outfit with large amounts of jewellery or flowers in her hair.

She said: “My fashion mantra is make it your own. You can take a simple dress and put personality into it by adding your own little touches.

“I won’t leave home without accessorising. I don’t feel right without rings on every finger, an armful of bangles or flowers in my hair.

“My jewellery box is full of Disney Couture, Rock ‘N Rose, Tiffany & Co and trinkets that belong to my gran.”

Pixie has vowed to expand her wardrobe for the summer by experimenting with different colours.

She told Now magazine: “My summer style resolution is to inject more colour into my wardrobe.

“This season is all about bold colour blocking and clashing brights, so I’ve just bought a pair of colour pop blue wedges. I have more fun with fashion when the sun’s out.”

Kate Moss is the ultimate festival style icon says Alice Temperley.

By Andrea Petrou on June 20th, 2011

Kate Moss is the ultimate festival style icon, according to Alice Temperley.

The British designer – who dressed Pippa Middleton for the royal wedding reception – believes the 37-year-old model always gets her music festival look right and maintains it is simple to achieve.

She told Vogue.co.uk: “Take really comfortable loose pieces that look effortless to wear. Converse are the perfect shoes, unless you need wellies, as they helps protect your feet if you tread on anything horrid – not too hot not too cold.

“A pair of sunglasses are a must and a good satchel or pouch bag that you can wear across your body with the few essentials – the smaller the better. Loose layers and a piece of cashmere so you don’t get caught short when the sun goes behind a cloud.”

Alice recently revealed how happy she was to work with Pippa on her dress for the wedding reception of Pippa’s sister Duchess Catherine and her husband Prince William.

She said: “I was delighted that Ms. Pippa Middleton asked us to design her dress for the royal wedding evening reception. Pippa is a beautiful young woman and a pleasure to work with. She looked incredible and the green looks great on her skin tone.”

Emma Watson and Pixie Geldof come out to play at Glastonbury and see our best dressed

By Andrea Petrou on June 25th, 2010

Emma Watson and Pixie Geldof joined Glasto Festival goers today and also gave them a run for their fashion style (although we would expect them to considering the amount of money they have).

Emma looked casually glam in denim shorts and a corset brocade top. She finished of the look with over the knee boots. Pixie on the other hand opted for tiny black hotpants, sneakers and to the knee black socks. She completed the look with a cardigan complete with a train.

But it wasn’t just the stars that looked good. Like yesterday, revellers showed off their looks, which included flip-flops, denim shorts and nautical stripes, while others went for wellies (of course) and boho style tunics. We’ll be bringing you all the Glasto news on Monday with galleries of the acts and of course the trends. And don’t forget to send us your Glastonbury fashion photos for inclusion in a gallery.

Glastonbury: The festival style so far.

By Andrea Petrou on June 24th, 2010

Although Glastonbury doesn’t properly kick off until tomorrow festival goers have already been turning up in their droves pitching up their tents and showcasing the latest festival fashions.

So far, it’s been pretty low key. Girls have opted for on-trend florals and flip-flops, while others have gone for denim shorts and of course the festival trend of wellington boots (if you still haven’t got yours then see our gallery here). Others have gone for leggings under long tees and there’s been an abundance of Trilby hats as the sun, for once, shines.

However, there’s always one that has to go a wacky step further and the prize today goes to the gentleman in the orange bikini, which hardly leaves anything to the imagination. We hope you’ve had your lunch girls.

View the gallery below for day one of Glasto festival fashion. But we also want to hear from you. Are you at the festival or heading down for the weekend? If so we want your help. Take a picture of your festival attire and send it over to us at Andrea@shinymedia.com. The best dressed will get a mention and their picture on the site next week.



Trend Alert

Trend alert: Our top five Glastonbury wellies

By Andrea Petrou on June 24th, 2010

The festival season has well and truly begun with many heading to Glastonbury over the next few days. Although the weather is predicted to stay warm, there’s always the risk of rain (well it wouldn’t be Glasto without it) so we’ve decided to put together a gallery of festival boots for those travelling up to the festival on Friday.

However, take note other festival goers because this will also come in handy throughout the summer and for other festivals.

And even if it doesn’t rain, it’s a well known fashion fact that wellies are a hot must-have for these events. Team them up with little shorts and skirts for a perfect festival look.
