There seems to be a flux of famous women opting for cropped hair recently, and Glee actress Dianna Agron is no exception. While she actually went for the chop a while ago in May, she’s in no hurry to grow her hair back again, claiming that she absolutely loves having short hair and far prefers it to her longer blonde locks.
Dianna said on the change, “I’ve probably cut and trimmed it six times and it’s changing slightly every time but I love it. I’d been dying to cut my hair for so long.”
But who knows whether she’ll be allowed to appear on screen with her new shorter ‘do when she reprises her role of Quinn on the Glee show, or have to wear a wig to recreate Quinn’s traditional cheerleader look.
We absolutely love that so many stars are opting to cut off their hair to wear it in much shorter styles – who says you need to be wearing a five hundred pound’s worth of extensions to be feminine and beautiful?
What do you think of Dianna’s new hair – do you think she looked better with longer hair or do you prefer her shorter cut? Comment below and let us know.
Let’s face it, we all wish we could look like the stars on a night out and wanted their expensive outfits.
However, with the credit crunch still looming and many of us not being paid hundreds of thousands of pounds for a TV appearance the chances of wearing Chanel, Givenchy and Alexander McQueen to an event are very rare. Add to that the fact that many designers also lend these outfits to A-listers free and it’s almost impossible.
After seeing some of the gorgeous clothes the stars wore to the TV Baftas last night we decided to have a scout around the highstreet and find some similar alternatives at much more affordable prices. Take a look at our gallery and find out where you can find similar styles to those worn my Tamzin Outhwaite, Tina O’Brien, Michelle Keegan, Sinead Keenan and Gail Porter.
We’ve been a little bit disappointed with this year’s events. Not because of the lack of elegance or glam but because nearly all the celebrities that attend them look so damn nice and this means we rarely get a chance to have a little jibe at the “worst dressed”.
Last night’s TV Baftas also followed this trend with many celebs looking stunning on the red carpet. However, it was Helena Bonham-Carter who stood out for all the wrong reasons.
The actress who we usually admire for her kooky and creative clothing went that step too far teaming up a red taffeta dress with a pirate hat and netted headpiece, which screamed tack. This might not have been so bad had Helena not chosen to wear her sunnies which really made the outfit a complete mismatch.
Helena we love your normal kooky style but this time you just went that little bit too far.
Ok so we’ve been going on about white being a huge trend on the red carpet this year and we’ve seen it everywhere from the Oscars to the Baftas to various premiers in Cannes.
However, just as we thought it was dying out it made a huge appearance on the red carpet at last night’s TV Baftas. Amanda Holden went for this trend but made it stand out with a silver bodice while Kara Tointon and Michelle Keegan went for straight dresses with asymmetric shoulder detailing.
Eastender’s star Lacey Turner also channelled this trend in a white lace frock while ex Corrie star Tina O’Brien and Romola Garai both opted for short white frocks.
However, we’re pleased to say that unlike other events there wasn’t anything too bridal about these dresses. Instead they matched the summer weather perfectly.
Saturday was one of the biggest nights for British soap with the annual British Soap Awards takining place at the National TV Centre.
Soap stars were out in full frocked up force with many trying to out do each other on the red carpet as well as in the best soap stakes and there were many gorgeous dresses that evening.
However, although Eastenders starlet Lacey Turner who plays Stacey Slater in the show, was commended for her performance winning both Best Actress and Best Performance we were disappointed in her plain scoop neck white outfit, which in comparrison to other star’s frocks looked dull and plain. The shape also did nothing to flatter her figure, making her look more like a mini Pat Butcher at a wedding, than a young starlet.
However, her silver peep toe shoes did go some way to making this mistake up.
It’s surprising as Lacey usually only pulls off the best frocks on nights such as these, all we can suggest for this mishap is that the star’s nerves got the better of her fashion judgement.

We were really upset when we found out that Ugly Betty was going to be axed a few months ago.
However it seems there’s a small silver lining to this cloud, with news that the fashion girl could be set for film stardom. Yes that’s right, an Ugly Betty film could be coming to a big screen near us in the not so distant future.
Stars America Ferrera and Ana Ortiz are rumoured to be excited about the prospect of a film, and have been in talks with top execs.
And Ana strongly hinted at the possibility. “I will say this: It’s open. There may be a movie!” the actress told Latina.com.
‘It’s something that we’ve been talking about and it’s something that America Ferrera would really love to do.
We’d really love you to do it too America. Pleaaaase say yes.
And last night we got all excited when we saw the yummy mummy to-be staring alongside the likes of Twiggy, VV Brown and Lisa Snowden in the TV ad.
However whilst we couldn’t keep our eyes off the floral and nautical themed outfits our other halves were watching intently for other reasons. We didn’t want you (or your man) to miss out so we had a little gander and found a video for you to watch. Take a look below for all the fashion fun. We’re sure you’ll agree it’s a must-have watch.
We were really excited to see what Sandra Bullock would be wearing at this year’s Oscars. After all the starlet, who has been nominated for best actress for her role in the Blind Side, always makes a statement (although not in a good way.)
However, this year she quite literally blew us away with her vintage fabric Paquin beaded frock.
We think it’s also a perfect way to ensure no-one else turns up wearing the same dress (hands up who’s had that problem before).
And it seems Ms Bullock is also a woman after own hearts, claiming she completely chilled out all day today.
“I read, ate some berries and relaxed,” she said.
We also have to applaud her on her stunning make-up, especially the pink lips, which went away from this season’s bright red but gave a nod to the upcoming spring looks.
Following the internet leak of the Anna Sui for Target lookbook last month, Target execs have been quick to backpedal on any suggestion that the range has been inspired by Gossip Girl.
“One of Target’s top executives got nervous about being that closely associated with the show, given the [debauchery] its characters get into,” a source told the New York Daily News.
It is full-steam ahead with season six for Project Runway. Despite moving to a whole new network, the designer reality TV show is back for another round with Heidi Klum at the helm. Mentor Tim Gunn, and judges Nina Garcia, and Michael Kors are also back, as well as whole host of celebrity guest judges.
Whispers are abound that the next famous face to join the Upper East Side is Hilary Duff.
EW reports that the tween sensation has signed onto star in Gossip Girl in this season’s fourth episode. She plays Olivia Burke, a movie star who yearns for a normal college experience so enrols at NYU where Blair (Leighton Meester), Dan (Penn Badgley) are accepted. Her character ends up sharing a dorm room with Vanessa (Jessica Szohr), which will no doubt lead to some sort of drama.
The episode is scheduled to air on October 5. Duff’s own TV series, Barely Legal, was passed up by producers. She also recently starred in Ghost Whisperer and Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
Our friends in Canada will be familiar with Coco Rocha’s TV reporting work for E! The model was all over Fashion Week filming a special Coco Rocha Fashion Attack! which was given a special screening in New York this week. The show includes interviews with designers and funny moments with her Elite agent Micki Schneider. Check out the clip above of Coco taking camera tips from another model-turned-TV-star, Heidi Klum.
Is Dancing with the Stars about to get an injection of style?
The rumor mill claims that Vera Wang has signed on to star in the next season of TV’s celebrity dance show, due to premiere September 21.
As we all know, Vera trained as a figure skater before embarking on a long career in fashion. She even competed in the 1968 US National Championships and tried out for the Olympics in the same year. Later, she designed outfits for Nancy Kerrigan and Michelle Kwan.
I wonder if we’ll get to see some of her moves on the dance floor. In any case, she is bound to have the best costumes in the competition.
The CW network has released its fall television schedule, and it’s looking good. Not only am I embarrassingly excited to see Vampire Diaries (I blame Twilight), I’m also quite keen to check out Mischa Barton’s latest show, The Beautiful Life. Centred around the lives of a bunch of models living in New York, it also stars Elle Macpherson and is produced by Ashton Kutcher. Check out a preview of the show above, which also features Zac Posen playing himself.
