This Week’s FASHION MOMENT Elsa Hosk Where?

Out and about in New York City.

What She’s Wearing: A vintage skirt and jacket with Acne sunglasses, Chanel’s ‘Boy’ bag and those fur-lined, backless Gucci loafers.

Hannah Banks-Walker, Fashion News Writer says: The Victoria’s Secret Angel is slightly under the radar, but I always spot her giving great outfit.

This is a masterclass in vintage; Elsa has mixed her retro finds with on-trend accessories. Not only that, but they happen to be cult fashion finds with waiting lists as long as both our arms (Gucci’s £650 loafers caused riots), which just goes to prove that Miss Hosk is one scrappy shopper.

So many talents.

Hot New Hook-Up Floral motifs might be spring/summer’s default setting but thanks to Wallis’s uh-mazing new collab with high priestess of print Hermione de Paula, they’re anything but failsafe. Of course, I could just buy the kimono or the trousers – but where would be the fun in that?! That’s another co-ord added to the collection, then…

If that’s not enough to take your fancy, bohemian queen Millie Mackintosh and BFF Rosie Fortescue both count themselves as Soru super-fans, cementing its celeb-adored status.

Thanks to the supersize stones, these jewels are anything but basic, meaning they’ll amp up anything.

F s s e r D o T w Ho Laura Whitmore knows about festival chic, so when she invited Look to Coachella, we threw ourselves on that plane! Here’s Laura’s guide to looking Coachella Cool (+ in real-life too)…

Only this ‘fam’ includes DJ Zara Martin, Millie Mackintosh (pg 68); and Look’s own roving reporter Ms Laura Whitmore. This was going to be FUN! The four of us whiled away the weekend spotting celebs – Kendall!

Put simply, it was: The. Best.

And that’s before we chatted clothes – this lot take festival dressing to the next level! Laura talked us through her pick of high street hits, ticking off the most talked-about trends (see overleaf) as well as her go-to Converse kicks .

Here’s what she had to say about shoes, hangover cures and making festival fashion work in real-life too…

You’ve been at Coachella with Millie Mackintosh and Zara Martin. Is it fun to have your girl gang with you?

It is! We’ve all been catching up, doing very LA things like SoulCycle, green juices and vegan restaurants – with a lot of margaritas to balance it out, of course. Life is all about balance!

Have you been sharing wardrobes?

We all have really different styles, but

with Millie’s collection, Zara’s headphones and my Daisy jewellery, we have everything covered.

What’s your Coachella hangover cure?

Drink a ton of water, even if it means you’ll always be in the Portaloo!

If you could only pack five things for a festival, what would they be?

Comfortable flats – boots or trainers like Converse – so that you can run and dance. Then jewellery to bling it all up, a poncho, sun cream (got to be practical) and, of course, baby wipes.

So how do you stand out from the crowd in a sea of fringing and denim cut-offs?

It’s great to mix high fashion like Chloé with high street like New Look, and pair grungier denim with dressier things such as sequins and glitter. My look is very festival-y anyway. The most important thing is to be comfortable in what you’re wearing. I probably look like I’m going to a festival when I’m going to the corner shop to get milk.

Kate Moss totally nails it every time Ever had a festival fashion faux pas?

Wellies with no socks at Glastonbury – socks are very important at an British festival, otherwise you’ll get a blister on every toe. I learned the hard way.

How would you describe your festival style?

Eclectic – anything from rocker to boho. It’s fun to play with fashion.

Who’s your festival style muse?

Kate Moss totally nails it every time.

What are your festival high street hotspots?

I shop everywhere, New Look, River Island…I get a lot of denim from American Eagle, then add in some higher-end pieces from Very Exclusive.

Got any festival horror stories?

That time at Glasto with the blisters wasn’t much fun. Also I woke up at

‘A festival tip – a bit of this around the nose and eyes brightens your skin more than a face of make-up and looks way fresher’ a festival a couple of years ago with a drunk man passed out in our tent.

He was promptly kicked out!

What’s your ultimate festival survival tip?

Baby wipes and layers! And always arrange a meeting point.

How do you get yourself Coachella ready?

I’m big into yoga, but that’s more about a mental state as well as the physical benefits. The thing to remember is that Coachella isn’t a fashion show. Go and enjoy some music and have fun! Eat a dirty veggie burger and chips while watching your favourite band. It’s all about balance. Life is for living.

Ashley James: ‘Don’t Let The Haters Get You Down’

A

The Made In Chelsea alumna’s back and putting her amazing figure to good use modelling George’s chic new season swimwear…

shley James is becoming quite the force to be reckoned with. Making her name on Made In Chelsea, the 28-year-old’s since added TV presenter, model, jewellery designer and charity ambassador to her CV. And all in a few years. Add to that the fact she’s just run the London Marathon, is launching a blog and is the new face of George’s swimwear range and we feel positively lazy. We hotfooted it over to meet her and find out how Ashley fits it all in, how she copes with her body dysmorphia and her secrets to being truly body confident. Not so lazy now, are we?

cutter shape and the rest of the girls were quite derogatory about my boobs. I used to eat pizza and they’d call me fat.

I gave it up for a few years, but now I’m much happier. The industry’s way more forgiving now . My attitude has changed because fashion has changed, which is so encouraging.

How do you keep your body in tip-top shape?

I try to keep my diet as balanced as possible. I feel sluggish if I constantly eat unhealthy food, but sometimes I can’t help myself! I don’t want to restrict myself from having things I like to eat. Having a bit of what you fancy every now and then is the healthiest approach.

I’ve also just discovered Barry’s Bootcamp and it’s insane. The combination of weights and running is ideal for keeping my body in check.

You’ve just completed the London Marathon – congrats! Has training for it changed the way you perceive your body?

Having a goal keeps me motivated. It’s simple – the more exercise I do, the happier I am in my body. I suffer from body dysmorphia, so when I look in the mirror my mind sees something very different. I didn’t fully understand what it was and I had panic attacks. My confidence hit rock bottom. I decided to talk about it because I felt so many other people had it, but no one wanted to speak up. I didn’t want to seem like a victim; I just wanted people to realise you can be a smaller size and still struggle with body issues. Surrounding yourself with people you trust makes a big difference.

You look amazing in whatever you wear! Do you have any tips on dressing for your shape or size?

If I like something I wear it, whether it suits my body or not. I wore a Versus Versace dress to the Batman V Superman premiere and let’s just say it wasn’t made with big boobs in mind! My agent said I shouldn’t wear it, but I was like: ‘I feel good in this,’ so I wore it regardless! The key to looking good is showing off the parts of your body you’re most confident with – not necessarily what others think are your best.

Congrats on becoming the face of George’s swimwear collection, Ashley! Tell us, what made you want to work with them?

I’ve been a fan of George since I was little. My mum was a big Asda shopper. I made my first George purchase at 15; it was a floral tunic top.

Actually, I still have it in my wardrobe today!

Do you have a fave piece?

It’s so hard to choose, but I adore the red bikini. Mainly because the high waist is superflattering, but it also reminds me of Baywatch.

Most fans know you from Made In Chelsea. Can you spill any secrets?

People always question whether I went out with Ollie [Locke], but I really did! It’s not as scripted as people think. The producers set up circumstances, such as bumping into your ex, but other than that it’s all real life. They’re super-strict about it – if they think someone’s playing up to the camera, they’ll cut the scene.

You’ve spent a big part of your career as a model – would you say your attitude towards it has changed as you’ve got older?

I’m definitely more confident. I started catwalk modelling when I was 16, but I wasn’t the cookie

How White Denim Got Cool... Again

That’s right – white denim is officially back, and shares in Daz are gonna skyrocket…

T

he fashion-sphere is full of opinion dividers – pool sliders, harem pants and slip dresses to name a few – but none are more polarising than white denim. The ultimate jean fix of the, um, directional 80s, it’s since become something of sartorial stigma and the brunt of jokes (what’s the deal with Labour Day anyway?!). Now that’s all about to change. Fashion’s biggest influencers are on a personal mission to elevate white denim to chic new heights and they’re setting

their sights way beyond just jeans.

Skirts, jackets, jumpsuits, you name it – everything in your wardrobe is about to be whitewashed. While icy skinny trews are notoriously unforgiving, you’ll find wide leg culottes, button-down midis and oversized jackets super-flattering.

Styling-wise, we recommend adopting the ‘less is more’ mantra – think striped shirts and leather bikers instead of leg warmers and extreme shoulder pads. ’Cause not every #throwback trend is a triumph.

Boyfriend shirt + tailored blazer + white jean = instant chic!

The Ace Of Shades!

Save Vs Splurge T

hey say that sunglasses maketh the woman. OK, so we may have made that up, but we’re certainly championing the power of shades for summer. After all, it’s the one accessory you’ll be wearing with everything, so you’ll want a pair that lens (ahem) itself to versatility. Enter Dior. The ‘So Real’ sunnies have been spotted on an army of A-listers, but at £293 they’re not cheap. In fact, all that cash could buy you 10 pairs of high-street specs. Which probably equates to one for every sunny day of our darling English summer…

Dior Or Loads More?

Is it ever worth dropping a small fortune on a pair of sunglasses? Two of Look’s fashion fiends fight it out. This could get shady…

‘My name’s Hannah and I’m obsessed with Dior. It’s ‘Call me crazy, but I like to wear my sunglasses in not just the name; the shape of these shades suits every the pool, on the beach, to a summer soirée… I don’t face, while the tortoiseshell detail is timeless. I might want to worry about breaking them. Basically, I need to save up for longer than I’d like to admit, but the often throw them into my handbag and I’m not compliments will be worth it.’ Hannah Banks-Walker, Fashion News Writer about using a case.’ Maxine Eggenberger, Senior Fashion News Writer 21

I

t’s easy to lose a good hour (or three) when you find an amazing hair colourist on Instagram. Endless transformation pics give us all hope that maybe it’s possible to take our waves from mediocre to mermaid-esque. So when Look Beauty Writer Vic stumbled across Samantha Cusick’s feed, she knew she’d struck gold. Based at west London’s Taylor Taylor salon, Sam is the hair goddess behind the tresses of superstar bloggers Zoella and Tanya Burr – so naturally, we had to steal her secrets…

How To Pull Off Platinum

‘Anyone can suit blonde,’ says Sam. ‘I tailor the colour to suit every client by putting a toner on it, whether it’s milky, creamy, silver, grey… Going blonde is a rite of passage – it’s just about picking the right tone.’

The Best Hair ColourGrammers

‘There are so many amazing hair colourists on Instagram.

My favourites are Tracey Cunningham, Jen Atkin, Johnny Ramirez and Guy Tang.’

The ‘Most Requested’ Hair Colour

Before

‘Balayage is huge. People know exactly what to ask for now. Instagram has played a huge part in that – it’s made hair colouring more accessible.’

Don’t Overstyle

‘I don’t like to overcomplicate hair with too many products, but Davines Oi Shampoo, £15.20, and Conditioner, £16.40, are great.’

The Bloggers’ Go-To Stylist

Cheat Extra Thickness

‘A few years ago I did Tanya Burr’s hair before an event and since then we’ve been good friends. Through her I began to do Zoella’s hair.’

The Secret To Insta Waves

‘When it comes to styling, I prefer for hair to be flatter at the roots and fluffed out towards the ends. I use the Ego Professional Hair Straightener, £90, to give the lengths a wave, but tend to leave the ends straight for a relaxed finish. Gone are the days of the big Dallas blow-dry – grown-up, grungy curls are way more modern.’

Beauty Writer Vic is now a fully fledged ice blonde

After

Sam’s big-name clients include blogger Zoella…

‘Everyone thinks that having hair all one length is the secret, but I give my clients disconnected layers through the ends – it instantly makes hair look thicker.’

Get That Silver Sheen …and beauty blogger Tanya Burr

‘A purple shampoo can really give blondes an Insta-worthy edge.

I recommend using the Davines Silver Fox Shampoo, £14.35, around once a week.’

COVER STORY

L Chezza is feeling the strain

Cheryl and Liam are braving the storm together

ess than a year ago, Cheryl was gearing up for her Cannes appearance alongside her husband. Fastforward to today and she’s embroiled in a bitter divorce battle with Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini after rumours that she cheated on him with new man Liam Payne. Yep, the drama continues.

And while the usually quiet Cheryl was forced to hit back, denying there was a crossover between the two relationships, friends have revealed that the gossip has really taken its toll.

‘Cheryl was extremely hurt by the claims,’ said a source. ‘She’s so tired of having her name dragged through the mud week in, week out. It’s really taking it out of her emotionally.’ In fact, Look has learned that it’s been so tough, Cheryl’s instructed her lawyers to do anything to stop the stories and also to push the divorce through – which might include offering to pay JB ‘significant sums’.

It was widely reported that when the pair married in Mustique, July 2014 – after just three months of dating – there was no prenup, meaning that although JB has never indicated he wanted her money, he could now make a claim for some of Cheryl’s £20 million fortune. According to our insiders, she’s offered him £1 million but he’s yet to respond to her offer. Legal experts say he could actually expect

‘Suddenly when the truth come out her Girls Aloud from NOWHERE because the truth always come out, certain people that love to say that they don’t comment on their private life can’t help themselves but to justify themselves[sic].’

Friends say that one of the reasons Cheryl is so concerned about the cheating claims is because she feels it will damage her image. ‘Cheryl is at great pains to tell people that she has never cheated and would never cheat,’ said a friend. ‘In fact, she was burned herself when Ashley in Cole cheated on her.

It was recently claimed that Jean-Bernard had been keen to meet up with Cheryl, 32, to discuss their divorce.

Furthermore, it was recently announced that she’s receiving The Global Gift Philanthropist Award in Paris next week, where she’ll be known as just ‘Cheryl’, revealing she’s dropping the Fernandez-Versini surname for good.

‘Cheryl is happy to do whatever it takes to make sure the divorce is finalised as soon as possible, but she would prefer to speak through their lawyers,’ a source said. ‘Perhaps understandably, JB doesn’t know why they can’t just talk in person and try to sort this out between them.’

Speculation that JB is considering writing a book is also said to have rocked the star. ‘Cheryl and JB

What’s more, as Look previously reported, Cheryl is keen to move on with Liam. Friends say that despite having only been dating for a few months, Chezza can seriously see a future with the 22-year-old One Direction star – and they’ve even talked about marriage and children.

And despite reports that Liam’s ‘not handling this well’, our insider reveals that he’s actually been a pillar of support for her. ‘He’s really been there for her as a shoulder to cry on,’ said a friend. ‘He’s surprisingly mature for his age and has been keen to remind her that it will all be over soon. She even suggested that they should keep their romance low-key, but he reminded her that she has nothing to hide.’

The two have been holing up at Liam’s home in Surrey, just relaxing – which is what Cheryl loves most. She once said: ‘When I’m at home with no make-up, hair tied up, sweatpants or pyjamas on, with a cup of tea and packet of biscuits, that’s when I’m happy.’ Funnily enough, we agree Chez. Sorry, we mean Cheryl.

Zayn and Gigi want to spend more time together

Gigi Hadid is willing to do anything to make her relationship work… but her friends aren’t happy!

WORDS: Olivia fOSteR PHOtOS: Getty imaGeS, SPlaSH, JOe JONaS/iNStaGRam

oah, it looks like things are getting serious for Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid.

Following on from THAT super-sexy Vogue shoot (what? We’re not jealous), insiders have revealed that the 21-year-old model is potentially going to put her career on hold so she can spend more time with Zayn.

According to sources, Gigi’s planning to take four months off towards the end of the year to move to the UK to be with the 23-year-old singer. They’ve even been looking at London properties together where they can set up home.

‘Zayn’s on the cusp of announcing a UK tour and when it happens he wants to have Gigi by his side,’ says our source. ‘Currently, she wants to come and live in the UK to support him – they’re both really excited to spend more time together.’

Zayn and Gigi first got together at the beginning of this year and have been inseparable ever since. She also starred in the video for his hit single Pillowtalk and the pair regularly

share pictures of each another on social media. Gigi previously dated Cody Simpson and Joe Jonas, while Zayn was engaged to Little Mix singer Perrie Edwards but ended their four-year romance in August last year But while this might sound like a great plan to the lovebirds, Gigi’s family and friends think this move could be too soon and could have a serious impact on her career. It might even mean giving up lucrative contracts.

‘Gigi’s mum Yolanda has been particularly vocal about this plan,’ says our source. ‘She feels Gigi’s at the height of her career right now and she’s worried it could be a mistake to risk it all for a man. Even her friends like Kendall Jenner have warned her to be careful. They’ve seen how hard she’s worked to break the fashion industry.’

Gigi’s modelling career has gone stellar in the past few years.

From virtually unknown daughter of Real Housewives star Yolanda, she’s now internationally recognised and has walked

hile Gigi’s planning her future with Zayn, her past boyfriends have been hanging out. at the Nylon Coachella party, Gigi’s first love and ex-boyfriend Cody Simpson was seen sharing tense looks with the guy she hooked up with following their may 2015 split, Joe Jonas.

Joe, who dated the victoria’s Secret model for five months until November last year, apparently made the first move.

‘Joe walked right up to a shocked Cody and shook his hand,’ said a partygoer. ‘the two shared a beer and chatted.’

Wonder if your ears were burning, Gigi?

major catwalks from Marc Jacobs to Chanel, and shot campaigns for Guess, Versace and Tom Ford.

We think Gigi’s adult enough to manage her job and her boyfriend, so maybe Yolanda’s just a bit miffed that her daughter hasn’t invited her to join her? Isn’t it reassuring that celebs still have ‘normal’ problems?

‘I can’t see anything’ ‘Me neither’

RiRi & Leo: It’s On! (Again)

Rihanna & Leonardo DiCaprio or blimey, these two have been linked more times than we’ve had hot dinners. Yep, it’s true: Rihanna and Leo are back on… again.

The pair were spotted at Coachella and despite 41-year-old Leo trying to go incognito (that hat and sunglasses aren’t fooling anyone, mate!), they ended up being snapped by eagle-eyed photographers at the Neon Carnival after-party.

32

Let’s rewind. It was first reported that Rihanna, 28, and Leo were ‘hooking up’ at the end of 2014, some 16 months ago. Since then they’ve been spied snogging at the Playboy Mansion, partying it up for Rihanna’s birthday and generally touring some of the hottest celebrity clubs around (well, you would, wouldn’t you?).

But, then Rihanna – who’s also been linked recently to her ex Drake – threw a spanner in the works when she denied

Totes Awks...

Actress Vanessa Hudgens made a beeline for Leo at the festival but he only had eyes for RiRi. ‘Vanessa managed to get introduced to Leo, but he wasn’t interested,’ a fellow partygoer tells us.

‘The moment her back was turned, he signalled to one of his pals to find him a quick escape!’ Oh Vanessa, we’ve all been there.

Sort of. Minus Leo.

that they were dating. When asked how being ‘Rihanna DiCaprio’ sounded to her last year, she curtly said: ‘It sounds to me like you should stay away from the blogs because they will screw you every time…

I’m so busy right now that I just don’t have a lot of time to offer to a man, so it wouldn’t even be fair to be thinking of pulling somebody else into this life.’

This doesn’t look like not pulling someone into your life to us, RiRi. Just sayin’…

But that’s exactly what happened to Orlando and Miranda, 32, when they both showed up to Coachella with their new loves in tow. While Orlando, 39, was reportedly spotted ‘making out’ with 31-year-old Katy Perry, Miranda was doing the same with tech mogul Evan Spiegel, 25. Thankfully there were no awkward run-ins. Phew!

The two were seen at the Revolve Desert House party, but if you ask us, things still looked pretty strained.

Interview Of The Week

‘I’mKnownAsThe IrresponsibleOne!’ After a year of touring, rebel singer Charli XCX is back with another clothing collection. But we’re more interested in being her BFF, TBH…

B

oom, Clap! Charli XCX is in the building. Posing for her second Boohoo clothing campaign, we’re squeezing in our chat between shots and everything’s being timed to the second. Luckily, Charli’s full of energy and can fit a lot in. In fact, fitting it all in is sort of a mantra for the singer.

Over the last year, 23-year-old Charli has bought her first house in LA, toured the globe, become a beauty ambassador for Make Up For Ever,

launched her own record label and provides the voice of Willow in the Angry Birds movie, set to hit cinemas later this year. Add to that the forthcoming follow-up to her hit album Sucker, due out soon, some might say she’s too busy. But not Charli.

‘I like being go, go, go!’ she tells us.

Her latest line for Boohoo is full of Charli’s fave 90s trends (she cites the Spice Girls as a huge influence), which we’re already coveting. We delve into her wardrobe for some style advice…

What have you learnt from designing your ranges?

To only put the things I would wear in my collection. I’m so happy people reacted [well] to it. I’m so glad that people want to buy what I like to wear.

How has your style changed since you first broke onto the scene in 2012?

I was quite young and my tastes have changed now that I’m older. I used to like to wear every colour all at once, and now I definitely have an appreciation for a more styled look.

I’ve become more sophisticated but I do still love that outrageous, trashy, Pamela Anderson style.

We’re told that Paris Hilton is a big

influence of yours…

Paris pulled some amazing looks in the 2000s and now she’s still, like, the ultimate Barbie. I love her.

Are you a designer girl or high street?

I’m both. I still think the high street has so much to offer, but then I love vintage stuff and of course I love designer brands too. I think people who just wear designer for the sake of saying it’s a brand – that’s not good. You have to build an outfit and actually like it.

Where do you shop?

I love vintage shops and costume houses in LA. I still love Topshop – they’re really creative.

Do you follow any fashion rules?

I think they exist but I don’t follow them. I’m always like: ‘More is more!’

Do you work with a stylist?

She’s more like a friend. We try loads of stuff on and sometimes I’ll go out in her clothes. We’ll bounce around ideas for hair and make-up references too.

You’re mates with the likes of Rita Ora and Selena Gomez. Do you ever swap clothes with them?

No, I don’t think they trust me to get it back to them in one piece. I don’t think I’m ever trusted!

Are you the irresponsible one?

Er, you could say that…

Would you consider creating a plus- size range?

Definitely. I just saw Beth Ditto’s range and I thought that was incredible.

I’m really inspired by a lot of plus-size models, like Barbara Ferreira. Every type of body shape is sexy.

You get quite a hard time from critics about your wild style.

Does that annoy you?

I don’t really care. I’m only human, so [negative] comments do affect me but most of my style icons from when I was younger – whether that’s Björk or the Spice Girls – were always on the worst-dressed lists and now they’re back on trend, looking badass. The people whose opinions I care about always think I look cool and I’m not so worried about the rest.

What’s the best tip you’ve learnt from a make-up artist?

I don’t know. I think the key is to keep your foundation really light and not use too much powder. I love a lot of lipstick. Make Up For Ever has some amazing bits right now. I do tend to sweat and dance it off on stage, so I use more long-lasting products.

We’ve seen you on stage and you really go for it. Do you work out a lot in preparation?

You know, I actually don’t. Going on tour is my workout. That’s all I do.

I’m lazy in-between.

You’re known for your wild partying – got any great hangover tips?

Sleep it off! If in doubt, sleep.

We find it hard to believe you have the time to sleep it off…

Yeah, well, I like to bowl in and watch funny shit happen.

You never look hungover. What’s the best party you’ve been to?

The Coach party at Paris Fashion Week. It was so much fun – it was prom-themed.

As your profile rises, is it harder to let your hair down at events?

No, not really. My hangover the next day was real, so I think I had a pretty good time. I’d like a mad night with Marilyn Manson – that would be cool.

You’ve just bought a swanky LA pad. Do you hold mad parties there all the time?

I invite friends over and we hang out but I’m really into furniture design so I’m crazy [about my stuff] – like if someone spilled wine on my sofa I would go insane! It’s old and vintage.

I have more pizza and movie nights than raves. I go to someone else’s to do that, y’know?

It feels like you’ve been working really hard over the past three years – are you planning any holidays?

I had some time off at the beginning of the year, but I love what I do and I like being busy. I hate being bored. n Charli’s new range is available at Boohoo.com from 9 May

hen Taylor Swift took her famous friends along with her on tour last year, it was confirmation that ‘the squad’ has become the newest must-have accessory. But while it seems every celebrity has a crew, for us ‘normals’ it’s not always so simple. In fact, experts suggest that we could be the loneliest generation yet.

38

A recent study from the Mental Health Foundation discovered that those aged 16 to 30 are four times lonelier than the over-55s. That’s despite having more social connections that ever before – on average we’re WhatsApping 40 times a day and have 338 friends each on Facebook, yet when it comes to making friends in real life we’re not so good.

‘I’m seeing young women, even women who’ve lived in the same area for their entire life, coming to me and complaining about loneliness,’ says Dr Elle Boag, social science professor at Birmingham City University. ‘It’s a new problem that’s started happening

over the last few years.’

But why? Well, when it comes to making friends most of us follow the traditional route: we become integrated into a group of school mates who we carry through to our first job or university, when everyone’s in the same boat of having to make new ones. But it’s after that we hit a roadblock, as the friendship well runs dry. A recent study published by Royal Society Open Science revealed that peak friendship hits at 25 and after that the rate at which we prioritise our mates steadily declines.

One of the problems could be that, with rising rents and higher living costs,

Be still our beating hearts. We’ve found a shoe that’s not merely Instafamous and celeb-approved – it’s what we’ve been missing all our lives. When we first set eyes on these heels, which come in an irresistible twotone colour clash or a graphic print, we assumed they’d have a four-figure price tag – but we were wrong.

They are in fact the handiwork of L.K.Bennett. And while they’re still quite spendy, they will prove to be the love affair of a lifetime. Don’t laugh – you never can take shoes too seriously.

C o o lgiRl gingham

Chances are you’ve seen your fave celebs kickin’ it picnic-style of late, dressed in the prettiest checks around. But instead of SS15’s pastel hues, this year it’s all about monochrome gingham. It’s mainly down to Isa Arfen, whose Resort collection was packed with B&W checked pieces that the style set went crazy for.

Kendall even included the pattern in her own line, designed with sister Kylie. And heaven knows we want to keep up with those Kardashians.

Nars’ bronzing powder has always been a staple in my beauty bag, but it’s the new mega bronzer for face and body and scented candle that have now taken centre stage. The bronzing powder is jumbo size and the smell is a more enhanced version of the original. The candle has the same iconic scent, so my home now smells like tropical escape.

SkinPlumpingSupplements We spend so much on lotions and potions for a more youthful complexion, but what we put into our body is just as important for radiant skin. Recently, I’ve been taking Solgar’s Collagen Hyaluronic Acid Complex, £33.86. It increases your skin’s elasticity and hydration, and I’ve noticed a huge improvement in texture. Why is this better than other supplements? The secret is BioCell Collagen II, a super-clever formula that the body can absorb a lot more easily. I’m stocking up.

The Stigma Around Women Boxing Has Gone

Rosie Fortescue and Cheryl are fans of Kobox

In every Kobox class there are 60 to 70 per cent women. Boxing is an incredibly empowering way to work out and having many high-profile women – such as Gigi Hadid, Adriana Lima, Rosie Fortescue and Cheryl – actively promoting the sport has definitely made it more accessible to women.

The Trainers That’ll Boost Your Workout

Look for low-profile sports shoes. The closer to the ground you are, the better.

Boxing boots are great but hard to find.

Nike’s Free RN Flyknits work really well and as an added bonus they glow under our studio lights at Kobox.

Music Is A Must

Good earphones and a good playlist to go with them will definitely help with your workout. I use the Powerbeats2 Wireless by Beats. Having no wires allows me to go wild!

Starting To See A Difference… if you go three times a week for four weeks you should start to see results. Consistency beats intensity every time. After a month of training your body will start to retain firmness more than it did, your metabolism has kicked into a higher gear and you should notice a loss in body fat so that muscles feel firmer.

Post-Session Snack

After working out, eat a banana – it gives you the carbs and sugar you need to replenish energy.

Almonds are also a great source of healthy fats and protein, plus they’re good for your blood flow and for the heart. It’s a pretty balanced mini meal that fills the gap between finishing training and having a proper meal.

Roman Kemp HE MAY BE THE SON OF SPANDAU BALLET SINGER MARTIN (ASK YOUR MUM!) BUT ROMAN KEMP IS MAKING A NAME FOR HIMSELF WITH HIS FIRST PRIMETIME RADIO SHOW ON CAPITAL FM. NOT BAD FOR A 23-YEAR-OLD…

You’ve got yourself a primetime show – that must be a lot of pressure…

It’s amazing. I’m just so grateful to Capital for putting faith in me. This show that we’re creating is very much something that we’ve always wanted to do, to be able to put it on a big scale. This is our opportunity.

Have you ever said anything on air that you’ve regretted instantly?

I say stuff every week that I regret – my producer will just look at me like: ‘What the hell did you just say?!’

Are you heading out to any festivals this year?

What’s the best celebrity party that you’ve been to?

It’s always a great night when Justin Bieber’s in town. We’re friends.

Is it messy?

[Laughs] It’s just fun. We had a funny scenario recently when I took my producer from the show Joe with me. I’d had a text from Justin saying: ‘Come down to the club,’ so I came down. Halfway through the night I was just like: ‘I’m so tired, I’m going to have to go home,’ so I said to Joe: ‘I’m going to leave you here’.

It wasn’t until I left that I realised I’d just been like: ‘Joe, I’m going to leave you with Justin Bieber!’

One hundred per cent! I love music and festivals. In the summer there’s nothing better than [being with] your mates, drinking, in a park, watching a festival.

Did he survive?

Who are you most looking forward to seeing?

In terms of singers, Zara Larsson is absolutely smashing it… and I really hope she’s single! Bryson Tiller is set to be the next Drake – he just will be.

■ Roman is on Capital FM Mon-Thu 7pm-10pm & Sun 9am-12pm

The Wireless Festival line-up was announced recently. I’m a massive Bryson Tiller fan and he’s quite high up – I literally cannot wait to see him.

He survived! He’s [Justin’s] a good kid, I tell you.

Who do you predict to be huge this year?
