Like Hello Kitty, unicorn stickers and leopard print, there’s something endearingly appealing about love hearts. Whether in the form of sequinned nipple tassels, in old school tattoos or emblazoned on lingerie, it certainly seems that hearts are no longer the reserve of Valentine’s cards and love letter stationery.

The fabu Caramel Bunny and Giles Deacon have joined forces to create something pretty spectacular. At first thought you might be expecting a couture bunny suit, but you would be wrong. No, my friends, Giles and Bunny have created the Caramel Nibbles Collection – inspired by Caramel Nibbles. (Personally, anything inspired by Caramel Nibbles sounds good to me, as they are delicious beyond words.)

I loved Rachel's purple lipstick on The X Factor last week, and the retro make-up for this week's 'Big-Band' night was gorgeous, but replicating such bold looks by yourself can be tricky to do without making yourself look like a mental.

Over the past week the headlines have been dominated by the feuds between The Royal Mail and the Communication Workers Union (CWU) over strikes within the postal service concerning postal workers pay.

The power of the internet!I know that is stating a blindingly obvious statement but I still find it astounding how you can literally become an overnight phenomenon with simply your computer and a webcam. One women in particular who decided to quit her day job in favour of YouTube is Lauren Luke who if you like make up and beauty, I’m sure you will have heard her name buzzing around like crazy in recent months.

Despite all the recession hoo-haa, online fashion retailers have been booming in 2009, with leader of the pack ASOS, making record profits. Whether it is because it never feels as real to buy stuff online, or as one fashion magazine editor suggested, because it seems a little shameful in gloomy times to bound around weighed down by shopping bags, there has never been a better time for fashion retailers to sell their wares online.

I've celebrated Halloween American-style since my late teens. Which means coming up with ideas for an outfit is getting a bit old. I've done the vampires, the fairies, the zombies and the Edie Sedgewicks.There are however some inventive role models online. Girls who've been an inspiration for me throughout the years with their skill of coming up with cool costumes. I'm an old Livejournaller and those of you who used to hang out in those parts of the web are probably familiar with

While it might not quite be winter coat whether just yet, it’s definitely time to crack out the woollies. Dubious as it might sound, there’s never been a more exciting (no, really!) time for knitwear. With designers like Louise Goldin and Markus Lupfer reinventing knitting as we know it, winter jumpers no longer have to mean something bobbly and shapeless knocked out by your mum.
