Britney Spears parties until 4am to celebrate her engagement

By Andrea Petrou on December 19th, 2011

Britney Spears partied until 4am to celebrate her engagement on Friday.

The ‘Hold It Against Me’ singer threw a joint engagement and 40th birthday party for her fiance Jason Trawick at the Chateau club in Las Vegas, spending money on Dom Perignon champagne and a chocolate fountain to adorn the room.

A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: “Britney made sure there was plenty of Dom Perignon champagne flowing throughout the bash. She had a couple of glasses herself. She stayed until 4am when she and Jason returned to their 50th floor suite.”

Writing on twitter, Britney said: “Tonight was one of the most magical nights of my life. Such an amazing time with my new fiance and our closest friends and family. Blessed. (sic)”

Meanwhile, Neil Lane, the designer responsible for designing the engagement ring Jason gave to Britney has revealed he has been creating the piece of jewellery – which features one main diamond and 90 smaller gems on an eternity band – for some time while she has been touring the world.

He told People: “Jason is a romantic and when I asked him to tell me about Britney and what the ring would represent to them so I could find inspiration, his response was always the same – she is a princess.

“Texts came from all over the world, from Abu Dhabi to Mexico and I don’t know where else.”

Despite the ring being created when he was away, Jason was delighted with the final piece hen he went to pick it up from his store in Los Angeles.

Neil added: “Oh my god he loved it. The guy was so excited and nervous. At the end of the day, even with all the fame, he’s still a normal guy who was about to propose to the woman he loves.”

Cheryl Cole is spending £20,000 on a lavish birthday party for herself.

The ‘Parachute’ singer has not been seen in public since being fired from the US ‘X Factor’ and turning down an offer to return to the UK show last month but plans to celebrate turning 28 tomorrow (30.06.11) with a spectacular bash at an undisclosed London location on Friday (01.07.11).

According to the Daily Star newspaper, the stylish purple and black invitation sent out to friends – including her Girls Aloud bandmates, record company executives and some former ‘X Factor’ colleagues – reads: “You are invited to celebrate Cheryl’s birthday. Friday 1st July. 9pm til late.

“Venue to be advised. London.”

It is not known if Cheryl’s ex-husband Ashley Cole – who she is rumoured to be considering reconciling with – will be at the party, but her friend and new manager will.i.am is expected to be there.

The email address guests are asked to RSVP to ends with @iambizzy.com, which is thought to be an address for the Black Eyed Peas star.

Though Cheryl hasn’t been seen in public since her ‘X Factor’ axing, she recently took to her website to reassure fans she is OK.

She said: “I have had the weirdest past few weeks (nothing unusual there though.) I wouldn’t even know how to begin to tell you all about it.

“I have had the time that I have not had in so long to just chill with my loved ones and do the normal things that I like to do. See my friends and family and be with my doggys. It feels long overdue and sooooo good, even my feet are happy to not have to wear a pair of high heels hehe.

“It also breaks my heart a little when i hear that some of you worry about me and need to know that I am ok, so I want to PROMISE you that I am absolutely fine and more than OK! (sic)”

Black will always be chic, as will bows and a bit of sparkle. This clutch purse may look designer but it's actually a bargain from Accessorize.

Three days to go until Christmas Eve – festive decadence is in full swing, and I’m finding it very difficult to not look for every excuse under the sun to spend money on party outfits. If, like me, you’ve got a bit of a shopping itch from buying for other people, and not for yourself, then you might be in need of a little sparkly something to perk you up. Doctor Shiny prescribes a little clutch purse that will breathe new life into any tired old party outfit and perk you up – any of our recommended top 10 (above) will put a fashion spring in your step.

Get the look: Jaime Winstone’s party-girl style

By Andrea Petrou on December 15th, 2010

By Emily Borrett.

Poor old Jaime Winstone. Famous for her mish-mash of different styles and fun dress sense, she’s had a bit of flak in the gossip rags and tabloids for the monochrome Holly Fulton maxi-dress she wore out recently. (Which, I might add, I really loved.) Where lovers of high fashion saw drama and edginess, the “What were you thinking?” pages saw a woman that they thought looked downright silly. But what is so wrong with looking a bit silly? Is silliness not, after all, what the British fashion industry has been built upon? The fashion world would be a different place if the likes of Vivienne Westwood and Pam Hogg decided to stick with Queen Mother-esque twinsets and kitten heels, no?

And ’tis the season to be silly, after all. Tinsel, glitter, jewels, embellishment and brocade – Jaime just whacks it all on and heads out to the party, and that’s why ShinyStyle likes her. Whether she’s dressed like a futuristic punk, a 1930s débutante or a spaced-out acid hallicunation of colour,  she works the look with gusto and confidence. Check the gallery below for three of our favourite of the actress’ latest outfits, and the places you’ll need to go to get her style.

D&G Party: Naomi Campbell, Paloma Faith and Pixie Lott

By Andrea Petrou on September 22nd, 2010

Fashion and A-list gals alike turned up to honour Naomi Campbell for being in the modelling business for 25 years.

The party held by Dolce & Gabbana, who also designed a range of limited edition T-shirts featuring photos of Naomi done by some of the world’s top fashion photographers, was attended by the likes of Paloma Faith who rocked up in a leopard print dress and Jamie Winstone who opted for polka dots on her frock.

Naom’s fellow model Claudia Schiffer honoured her friend by wearing one of the limited designed tees while Tess Daly went for sexy tight leather trousers and a black top to mark the occasion. And it seems as though black was the colour du jour for the celebs with Lily Allen turning up in a lace frock in this shade, Naom’s herself opting for a dress in this colour and Pixie Lott going for a black ruffled rock.
