Will Calum and Georgia Split After Sleepover With Donna Air?



Is it all over, or was it ever real in the first place?

Calum Best seemed to be back to his old ways this weekend when he was spotted getting into the back of a car with former TV presenter Donna Air, despite teling press he is in love with girlfriend Georgia Salpa.

The pair were seen partying at a top London nightclub and after the Geordie star headed home for a while, she came back in a blacked out car to pick up the Irish bad boy. The pair were seen laughing and giggling in the back seat and soon the driver dropped them off to her apartment, where he didn't surface again until the next morning.

Will they split?


But of course Calum's 'people' have said he did not go to Donna's house alone. His spokesperson said there was a party on back at the house: "There was a small group of people at the house and absolutely nothing happened with Calum and Donna."

Meanwhile top model Georgia, who just recently signed on to the same London modelling agency as Calum, has been very tight lipped at the moment. Last night all she said was: "I don't know what to think right now."

The supposed affair took place just days after Calum declared his love for the half-greek model. The bad boy maintained he was a changed man:  "I was a bad boy in the past, but that was the past."

And Georgia only spoke out this week about his track record, saying she was wary about Calum from the beginning but said she trusts him now:
“I was a bit wary of him when we first met because I knew about his track record with the ladies. But he charmed me and I think he’s a really great guy. I think I keep him in line because I’m not someone who takes any crap. I don’t think he’s used to girls like that. I’m not worried about him running off with any other women.”
So what's going to happen next, will Georgia just forgive and forget like most celebs? Or was the relationship ever real in the first place?

Well if it is genuine then I really feel sorry for Georgia, she is a gorgeous girl who could do so much better than him, she is certianly more attractive than Donna Air (let's be honest). And with his track record of humping and dumping models, I would definitely be wary.

Will Georgia and Calum Split Up?
Yes, she will totally dump him!
No, she will stay with him.
Their relationship isn't real so who cares.
Calum will definitely win her back.

The Beauty Diary: Hotloxs Micro-Beads



Dear Beauty Diary,

As you know by now I am obsessed with hair. Hair extensions, hair styles, hair colouring, hair accessories, anything you could possibly think of.

I think it's so important to make yourself feel good and enjoy your own style, that's why I wear hair extensions. At the start of the summer I decided to stop wearing flip ins and clip ins, and instead went for the permanent option.

In my first Hair and Beauty review I tried out Hotloxs Pre-bonded Hair Extensions and I fell in love. The volume, length and colour was all perfectly selected by the top colourist and extension guru Anna from Hotloxs.

From Vogue Williams to Emma Waldron, top Irish celebs have fallen fast and hard for Hotloxs. With gorgeous models Lisa Nolan, Sara Kavanagh, Rachel Wallace, Pamela Ryan and Karena Graham all jumping aboard the Hotloxs trend.



This time around I wanted to try something different. With Hotloxs you can get pre-bonded extensions (no glue is applied to your hair, just a heat applicator that is folded around the top of your hair), weaves, clip ins or micro-beads. So I decided to go for the beads.

Now some people will try and scare you off saying that they are more visible and uncomfortable to sleep on but I haven't come across either problem. Obviously will all hair extensions, the thicker your hair is the better, and if you have really thin hair a half head is always better.

Before

So Anna popped over and took out my pre-bonds that I had in for three months. You always here horror stories about peoples extensions not coming out easily, using acetone and having to cut out chunks of your hair. Well Anna didn't have to use one bit of acetone and all my hair extensions were out with in 15 minutes, and my hair had actually grown from the first time I had the extensions put in.

It's always a great sign to see hair growth, other companies that just use bonded extensions (all glue) will often have clients complain of their hair falling out and being left with just shreds of hair.

After

Micro-beading is one of the best options I have to say. First of all the method is ridiculously easy. You and your pals could order the hair of www.holoxshair.com and put them in yourselves. Secondly these extensions can be taken out at anytime, so if you feel like a change or want a break they can easily be slipped out of your hair.

I have to say it feels great known that there is no glue whatsoever in my hair. It's nice to know I could take them out at anytime but of course I don't want to. Once again the quality of the hair is exceptional. Top stylists have been asking me where I get my hair done and most people don't have a clue that I have extensions at all.

This is what the microbeads look like undereath the hair

My advice would be for those who are nervous about getting pre-bonded extensions, but you are sick of clip ins, I suggest getting the micro-beads. There is zero damage to your hair, you will get the feel of the extensions and check out the quality of the hair and then you can move on to a more permanent option.

Vogue Williams has been wearing Hotloxs Micro-beads for the last few months and her hair looks fab. So make sure to contact Hotloxs and their FACEBOOK, TWITTER and of course their WEBSITE.

PS!!

I had the pre-bonded extensions in twice already and I loved it! Check out this video below if you are interested in getting it done, or even interested in learning how to do it yourself!

Lily Allen Says She Could Have Died From Drugs Like Amy Winehouse



Singer turned fashion designer Lily Allen Cooper has admitted that she could have died from drugs like pal Amy Winehouse.

At the beginning of her career Lily often spoke about using drugs and her crazy party lifestyle but now that she is married to Sam Cooper and expecting her first child, the singer admitted she's worlds away from who she used to be.

As a pregnant, married woman living in the Gloucestershire countryside, the singer is now a world away from her old life.

Lily says she and hubby Sam decided to leave the bright lights of London for the countryside, because living in the city reminded her of taking drugs.
"I felt very trapped by the presence of 40 paparazzi guys hysterical outside her front door. I could totally see why Amy didn't want to leave her house. It seemed more appealing to stay in and take heroin. I've had nights out with Amy and I know exactly what used to go on. I also spent time with her at her house in Camden. Not the one she died in, the one before."


Lily added that friends and family texted her after her death, saying they were grateful that she had turned her life around.
"Actually, when Amy died, I got several texts from friends saying they were really glad I was still here. That I hadn't died too. It's so easy to get caught up in that madness and I count my lucky stars I've been strong enough to walk away."

Lily, who is currently 7 months pregnant also admitted she knows the sex of the baby but isn't telling anyone. The singer says she's being very closely montired after suffering a miscarriage and a stillbirth already.
"After my last baby, I'm being really closely monitored so I come to London every Thursday for a scan. The doctor keeps telling me to take it easy."

Beauty Buy Of The Week



I know I normally always aim for under €20 when it comes to my buy of the week, but this is really worth it.

Any make-up artist will tell you that your make-up is not complete without using a primer. So what is it and why is it important?

Well firstly it works as a smooth base for your face before you apply any type of foundation to your face. Of course cleansing, toning and moisturising is a must before hand also, but you will notice that when you apply foundation after the moisturiser you will be left with a sticky finish.

But this amazing SmashBox Finish Colour Correcting Foundation Primer smooths out your skin creating the perfect base for your makeup. Once you start applying your foundation you will realise that you can use less but it will spread better, and you won't need to top up again within a 24 hour period.

Normally this primer sells at €38 but you can get it now at Brands Direct for just €28! Start shopping here: SHOP

PS!!

This is the one I have been using, and I can't live without it now!

Leona Lewis Unveils New Album Cover



Wow things have definitely changed in the life of Leona Lewis.

The first time we met this English beauty she was a shy, sweet call-centre worker and now she is a superstar. Getting rid of her trademark blonde curly locks and innocent look, Leona has transformed into a vixen over night and is set to showcase a whole new music vibe with this album.

Already her debut single Collide has shown how versatile she really is, and she is definitely more confident as she flaunts around in shorts and a bikini in the video.




Leona's innocent look on her first album cover
This brand new image may be due to the fact that she spit with her long-term boyfriend Lou Al-Chamaa during her world tour last year. Even though she's still single it looks like she is ready to mix things up on the music scene.

Oh how times have changed! Check out her latest vid here:



Fashion Fix - Colourful Skinny Jeans



It is set to be the biggest trend of Autumn/Winter and already some of the top celebs have been flaunting bright coloured skinny jeans.

With BT2's recent launch of their new collections, it was clear that denim is back again this season but this time with a twist. With the success of the skinny jean and the denim jacket it's time for something new this season and this is it.

My favourite colour this season has to be red. And both BT2 and BT's Autumn/Winter collection are packed full of soft red dresses, deep red coats and bright red denims.



Jessica Biel has pulled out the look perfectly. Although this new trend can be worn on a night out, paired with back stilettos and a funky top, the bright coloured skinny jean is also perfect for day to day wear.

Here Jessica pairs the jeans with a baggy striped t-shirt and a man-sized hoody. This looks great for your body proportion. Not everybody can pull off the skinny jean look with a tight top because it's quite a low rise, but pair them with something flowy or baggy, add an oversized bag, and away you go!




Littlewoods skinnies


This is another colour I'm loving this season. These blue skinny jeans can be bought at Littlewoods Ireland and come from the rand Love Label. For just €39 you can snatch up these denims in this bright blue or a turquoise colour.

These are also higher raised then most normal skinnies so you can tuck in a nice white/grey shirt, add some gold accessories and a pair of heels and you're ready to go.




TopShop skinnies


There is also a wide range of colourful skinnies you can buy from everyone's favourite TopShop. My top pick from their are these gorgeous maroon coloured skinnies. Like I said red is really the colour this season, whether it's maroon, violet or chrimson these are the colours to wear ladies.

These jeans I'm in love with they have a very soft material and aren't too tight on the waist, which is always a good thing no matter what size you are.




ASOS Skinnies
Ok so I've established that red is the colour to go for this season, especially when it comes to skinnies, but I have to say Mustard comes in at a very close second.

I'm loving these ASOS skinny jeans, which you can whip up for just €44.87. Obviously with such a bright colour you need to look at pairing more natural tones, like white, grey or even black with these pants.

But as you can see for this picture you can style your outfit for a night on the tiles or go back to a Jessica Biel inspired casual look.




The White Door Skinnies


Another colour you can go for, if you don't want to go too bright is, the always safe, white. And the best place is The White Door in Dublin. They stock the amazing Hello Skinny Jeans collection, which are said to flatten your tummy, shape your butt and tighten your legs.

Any shape or size can fit into these, and they would look spectacular on a night out. But be careful these babies come in at €175 so you don't want to spill anything on them!

So there you have it, Red, Mustard and Blue are my top pics when it comes to skinnies, any tone of red at all is in this season so if you are looking to follow trends then do that.

PS!!!

One last thing, if you are stinking rich, I urge you to get these GUESS jeans for $98... I'm in love and it's a gorgeous shade of pink!

Fashion Fix - Kate Winslet


I've never made a secret of the fact that Kate Winslet is my favourite actress and person in the world, she is so kind, beautiful and down to earth, but now I love her even more for her style.

Snapped last night on the red carpet for her TV show Mildred Pierce, Kate looked amazing for someone who had just recently escaped from a fire at Virgin owner Richard Brandson's house.

Wearing short shorts and a blaiser, this mini tuxedo suit looked perfect on the British actress.With her hair slicked back and wearing barely any make-up she still looked ten times better than her co-star Evan Rachel Wood. And it's hard to believe that Kate is actually 35!!



She ticked all the right boxes again the night before at the premiere of her latest flick Carnage. Wearing a stunning Victoria Beckham designed dress the actress flaunted her slim body and toned legs.

She has such an amazing body for her age, and after three kids as well, Miss Red salutes you Kate!

Swit swoo!!
