| Billi Mucklow turns heads in neon pink zebra print dress as she cosies up to her footballer fianc� Andy Carroll on date night
They welcomed their son in June.
And since then have been lying low enjoying family time with little Arlo, but on Wednesday former TOWIE star Billi Mucklow and her footballer fiance Andy Carroll enjoyed a rare date night.
The new parents cosied up as they left celeb hotspot, Sexy Fish restaurant in London after dinner and cocktails.
Billi, 27, stood out in a super bright dinner date outfit, flashing her tan in a neon pink and black zebra print dress.
The figure-hugging number was teamed with an equally colourful purple, grey and pink furry wrap to keep out the winter chill.

The former TOWIE star added a pair of towering ankle-strap heels and slicked her blonde locks back for her night on the town.
A full face of makeup was the finishing touch as she flashed a huge smile while holding hands with her dapper man after their cosy dinner for two.
The West Ham United player matched his fiancee\'s dressed up style with a smart black coat teamed with skinny jeans ripped at the knee and suede boots.
Billi Instagrammed a photo of her posh drinks over dinner, telling her 332k followers she was enjoying her \'date night\'.
Andy proposed to Billi last November, although the pair are yet to set the date for their wedding, and they welcomed their first child together in June.
The sportsman, who already has two children from a previous relationship - Emilie Rose, five, and son Lucas, three - has graced his second son with his middle name, Thomas.
The pair even share the same initials much to Billi\'s obvious delight, and she refers to the father and son as \'Big AC and Little AC\'.

| The way we dress affects the way we feel. And the way we feel affects our ability to get stuff done and influence people. Call it superficial if you want, but researchers have a different name for the link between what we wear and how we feel: enclothed cognition.
Let me explain with a story.
On a recent trip to New York, I wore my favorite pair of boots. I wear these boots everywhere, and for the last few years, I neglected them. So when I got to La Guardia Airport a bit early for my flight, I decided it was time to show my trusty boots some love.
I found the shoeshine stand and sat down. The man took one look at my boots and said, “This will be the hardest project of the day.” He got to work, and a short time later it looked like I was wearing new boots. But as nice as my boots appeared, what really surprised me was how much better I felt.
Now, I usually don’t care all that much about what I wear. Just ask my wife. So it sounds silly that a simple shoeshine changed my mood. But it did. The simple act of getting my boots polished made me feel better.
Image: plus size bridesmaid dresses
It turns out my experience matches the results of a study published in 2012 by Professor Adam D. Galinsky and Hajo Adam. They conducted three experiments to determine how what we wear impacts the way we feel. They used a well known piece of clothing to test their theory: a doctor’s white lab coat.
In one of the experiments, students who wore a doctor’s white coat to perform different tasks made half as many errors as students who wore regular clothes. That’s right. Students who dressed like doctors were less likely to make an error — even though the tasks assigned in the study had nothing to do with medicine. The other two experiments showed similar results, and we now have what’s known as enclothed cognition.
For anyone who sees people as part of the job or wants to influence the behavior of others, the way we dress does matter. So let’s not kid ourselves. First, people judge us, at least in part, by how we dress. Second, what we wear affects how we feel about ourselves.
It reminds me of another story, one from my early career as a financial adviser. I asked a good friend of mine, a doctor, how I should dress. He said, “You should dress sharply. Wear a jacket and tie at the very least, and preferably a suit.”
I thought, “That’s so lame. If people need a suit and tie to trust me, I don’t want those kinds of people as clients.” My doctor friend then told me, “Can you imagine if I showed up in my running clothes at the lab? People are expecting someone in a white lab coat, so why give them one more hurdle to jump through before they trust me?”
One other reason for dressing the part: When we’re getting ready to perform a task, a good deal of the work starts with putting ourselves in the right place mentally. For instance, when I dress up to give a talk, it reminds me that I’m there to perform an important function. People have paid money to see me in person, and I need to “show up,” both physically and mentally, to show respect. Dressing nicely matches their expectations and it makes me feel good. Both things help me perform better as a speaker.
It would be easy to dismiss this as shallow or silly. But for the next week, try giving yourself permission to think about what you wear and how it makes you feel, so you’re putting your best foot (or boot) forward at all times. We even have a fancy name for it now. It’s science!

| Dear Kylie Jenner, my wheelchair isn’t a prop: Stop playing dress-up games with my reality
As a visibly disabled woman, I never have the option to choose if I want to put myself on display. People stare at me, often directly and unabashedly, because my wheelchair demands attention. I’m not sitting to make a cultural statement, though. I’m sitting because it’s my reality.
Kylie Jenner, however, is sitting in a black and gold wheelchair on the cover of Interview magazine because it’s supposedly a metaphor for her reality. Interview defended this choice, claiming that Jenner’s wheelchair poses are meant to be commentary on the attention she receives as “an object of vast media scrutiny.” To Jenner, the wheelchair is something she can try on, a bold accessory to accompany the rest of her appearance. Everything she does makes heads turn, so why not give the public another reason to gawk?
In the Interview article, Jenner gives some insight into her desire to drastically alter her looks from time to time, explaining to Chris Wallace that she is “all about, like, experimenting” as a way to figure out her identity. It seems that adding a wheelchair to Jenner’s scant outfit is nothing more than a provocative game of dress-up. This is extremely inappropriate, because wheelchairs are not a costume choice. My wheelchair is not a symbol of an identity to try on. It is part of who I am.
Image: peach bridesmaid dresses
While Interview’s creative team seems to believe that it is okay to use a wheelchair as a prop, many people who are actually disabled beg to differ. Outside of Jenner’s celebrity bubble, where posing in a wheelchair is deemed edgy and daring, real wheelchair users don’t have the same luxury. The Kardashian-Jenner clan deliberately chose to put themselves in the limelight and continuously clamor for attention, and exploiting a facet of my reality to tell that story certainly doesn’t garner any sympathies from me.
In a twisted way, though, I understand Jenner’s search for identity among the barrage of attention. I, too, am reduced to my appearance and subjected to judgment without people knowing me. People are often quick to make superficial assessments about who I am just by looking me. Like Jenner, disabled people are frequently ogled like museum pieces, but whereas Jenner can essentially do whatever she wants without risking her position as a media darling, much of society still stigmatizes the disability community as though we are lepers.
Perhaps Jenner should be more sensitive to this, considering that she discusses her anti-bullying Instagram campaign, #IAmMoreThan, in her interview. She reveals that since “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” first aired on television, she has dealt with bullying and negativity. Indeed, people can be cruel, especially to those in the spotlight, but I don’t believe that Jenner knows the first thing about true experiences with oppression, and her photo shoot definitely didn’t help. I have been mocked because of my wheelchair, discriminated against, outright rejected, and pushed away. #IAmMoreThan my wheelchair, but in countless ways, it defines how other people perceive me, and how they treat me. It is far more than a temporary state of affairs or a fashion faux pas. Whether I’m naked, dressed to the nines, or keeping it casual, my wheelchair is always there, and people can always see it. I cannot simply stand up, leave it empty in a photography studio, and forget about it.

| 7 Fashion Tips From Hilary Banks Because She Was \'The Fresh Prince\'s\' Resident Fashionista
If there\'s one TV show that epitomizes the gaudy, loud style of the early \'90s, it\'s The Fresh Prince Of Bel-Air. And if there\'s one way to ensure we ace all the trends of the era, it\'s by turning to Hilary Banks\' style. While her clothes may now seem a little outdated at times, her style was unapologetically cool and chic — two traits that will live on no matter the decade. Plus, with the seemingly never-ending resurgence of \'90s trends, what better time to draw sartorial tips from the era of grunge and matching suit separates?
We all know Hilary was the prissy and self-centered character of the bunch. But her unique personal style was off the charts. She was always rocking bright colors, shoulder padded silhouettes (carried on from the \'80s no doubt) and chunky jewelry. The best part was that she rocked each and every look with the utmost confidence and poise. These style staples alone would be enough reason to grant Hilary serious inspo status. But she has a lot more wisdom where those came from.
So here are seven style tips courtesy of your favorite love-hate TV character in history. She was certainly a Queen B, but the girl had some serious style way before Blair Waldorf.
Image: orange bridesmaid dresses
1. Take Risks
If there\'s one thing Hilary Banks was not, it was shy. Her outgoing, extroverted energy was certainly reflected in her wardrobe choices. Frankly, I don\'t think there was a trend Hilary met that she didn\'t like, including a four-color, vertical striped blazer. She taught us that having the guts and the confidence to take every trend out for a spin will often lead you to a fun and unique sartorial experience.
2. Up The Ante With Accessories
Sometimes what makes an outfit isn\'t necessarily the ensemble itself, but the accessories atop it. For instance, a simple outfit can be totally transformed with a chunky necklace, a bright set of bracelets, and a bold pair of shoes. While Hilary\'s purple halter dress is pretty, the charm necklace and the chunky bracelet take it to the next level. Follow Hilary\'s lead and revolutionize your basic outfits with statement-making accessories.
3. Matching Isn\'t All Bad
I\'m not just talking about matching your light jeans to a white shirt, but matching your jacket to your skirt and to your hat and to your shoes. Sure, unexpected outfit combinations are cool. But there\'s nothing like a matchy-matchy look that can make a full ensemble statement all on its own.
4. Look To Stars For Inspiration
Clearly, Hilary is drawing some inspo from Madonna\'s Like A Virgin days. Just look at the white dress, the gaudy pearl jewelry, and even the lace gloves. Hilary\'s version is definitely toned down compared to the bad gal attitude that Madonna embraced, but the similarities are obvious.
5. Up The Allure Factor
The \'90s weren\'t exactly a set of years known for sex appeal. Judging from Hilary\'s ensembles, the better part of the decade was spent in boxy suits, oversized sweaters, and shoulder pads. However, there were moments when Hilary seriously upped the allure factor. The girl knew how to rock cut-outs and a plunging neckline long before they were full-fledged trends. And she looked damn good.
6. When In Doubt, Resort To Classics
While the majority of Hilary\'s outfits were trendy beyond belief, she also brought out some wardrobe classics. While a four-color, vertically striped blazer is great and all, it\'s classic pieces like architectural blazers, high-waisted midi skirts, and basic black booties that often stand the test of time.

| A couple of weeks ago, I spent my Friday afternoon at The Valentine for their Costume and Textile Collection Mini-Symposium— a total treat for a fashion and art history nerd like myself. There were three speakers: FIT’s Associate Curator Colleen Hill spoke about the school’s upcoming Fairy Tale Fashion exhibition; Caroline Rennolds Milbank took the audience through a tour of fashion’s past in her talk “what we romanticize when we romanticize the past”; and local artist Mo Regulinski shared the process of her latest series, “Regalia: Healing Avatars.”
Mo Regulinski was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at age three. Instead of allowing this chronic illness to define her life, she’s used it to inspire her art. “Regalia: Healing Avatars” is a badass and beautiful fashion exploration of what it means for a woman to be confident, strong, healthy and feminine. Using her discarded diabetes paraphernalia, Mo has created some seriously cool, whimsical dresses that showcase not just her artistic talent but fashion sense as well.
I especially dig “Needles,” the first Avatar Mo completed in her series. It looks tough enough to arm even the most fierce Roman empress (is that a thing?) but feminine and stylish enough for a cocktail party. The coolest part? Each panel is lined with the 30,000 needles Mo has used as part of her diabetes regulation- I can only imagine how empowering that kind of reappropriation would be.
Image: convertible bridesmaid dress
Mo was such an engaging, positive and funny speaker; she totally captured the audience’s attention and left me wanting to know more about her incredible work…so I asked her! Check out our chat below. You can find more information about each Avatar in the series on Mo’s website.
blvd: What was your relationship to fashion before you started this series?
Mo Regulinski: I used to be the pattern designer for the Cleveland Playhouse in Cleveland, Ohio. Since living in Richmond, I’ve worked with the students at St. Catherine\'s and St. Christopher\'s Schools and as an artist-in-residence for Ampersand where I interpreted fashion in scripts (so, basically costume design). I currently work with Teens at the VMFA in the Teen Stylin\' Wearable Art program. I am just finishing a fashion program with Art 180 called Inside Out in the Neighborhood where students designed a "look" for the community partner. The exhibition will be in January at Atlas.
blvd: Have you had any style revelations since starting the Regalia series?
MR: My biggest style-related revelation was getting comfortable with being a non-fashion-industry size. As I worked daily with a dress form padded to mimic my body dimensions, I became comfortable with my actual body dimensions instead of thinking I "should be" something else.
blvd: Do you plan to create more Regalia for this series?
MR: Yes, I plan to continue to do more! I feel that women have been cheated the adoption of masculine triumph wear. Women have contributed so much to humanity. I want to honor that in future work through contemporary fashion women love to wear and embellished pieces that tell a story.
blvd: What do you think women who do not live with a chronic illness can glean from it?
MR: I want women to know that we can stand in our power and still be feminine. An overall theme for everybody is that a shift in perspective changes everything. Even our darkest moments teach us something about living a fulfilling life. By loving and accepting ourselves in each moment, we can love and accept others more fully.

| Loved Cheryl\'s X Factor Dress This Weekend? Now It Can Be Yours
If you\'re been on X Factor wardrobe watch like us, we\'re sure you\'ve already planted Cheyl\'s plunging party dress from last night\'s results show on your wishlist.
Well you\'re not alone. Our fashion radar went into overdrive the moment we clapped eyes on the stylish mini frock, complete with plunging neckline and embellished details.
Now we\'re usually disappiointed when it comes to Cheryl\'s closet, with her love for designer dresses it\'s not often that we can snap up her style but this time around it\'s a little different! The winning frock is from none other than our high street go-to, Topshop. Yes, really!
Image: vintage bridesmaid dresses
Can you actually believe it? We were estatic the moment we heard and just can\'t wait to snap it up in time for party season. Although there\'s a slight catch...
So, it\'s not available just yet but the glamourous dress is coming to a Topshop near year in a mere matter of months - March to be exact. Now, that may seem like forever away but we guarantee with crimbo just around the corner, the time will fly by! Yay!
Style Queen Cheryl teamed her flirty frock with towering silver stilettos and a glamourous ballerina bun \'do, but the stunning dress would look equally chic in strappy springtime sandals or why not add a grungy edge with some heeled ankle boots.
The styling options are endless and there\'s one thing for sure we\'ll be first in the queue as soon as it hits the rails.

| Stephanie Pratt puts on a leggy display in a silver mini dress as she steps out with Made In Chelsea co-stars at beauty event
She\'s currently making the most of her new-found single status on Made In Chelsea.
And Stephanie Pratt made sure all eyes were on her on Thursday night, as she put on a very leggy display in a chic silver print mini dress at the Skinny Tan launch party at the Light Lounge, London.
Enjoying a girls\' night out with some of her reality show co-stars, the 29-year-old showed off her sizzling sartorial style in the thigh-grazing dress - despite the chill temperatures.
Arriving on the red carpet on her own, the Californian-born author and TV personality put her most fashionable foot forward at the beauty companies\' party.
Slipping into a thigh-grazing dress, the E4 star - who first shot to fame in MTV\'s The Hills - channelled a slight vintage feel thanks to the retro scale print on the garment.
Image:one shoulder bridesmaid dresses
With the garment\'s A-line frame drawing the eye to her toned and tanned legs, the Californian beauty added subtle definition to her gym-honed pins with the addition of a pair gladiator style stilettos.
Accessorising her look an understated leather handbag, a simple necklace, silver watch and a collection of rings the MIC star kept her look largely uncluttered.
Wearing her long blonde hair arrow-straight and in a centre-parting, Stephanie let her golden tresses frame her pretty face and fall down past her shoulders.
Opting for a flesh-toned pallet of make-up, she highlighted her striking features with a liberal application of mascara and a slick pale berry lip gloss.
Also attending the event was Stephanie\'s latest BFF Tiffany Watson - younger sister of her closest confidant, Lucy.
Channelling a more risque look, the aspiring fashionista wore a layered aqua mini dress and faux-fur shrug.
And even though she\'s played a hand in the epic fallout between Tiffany and ex-boyfriend Sam Thompson, Millie Wilkinson was also flying the Chelsea flag at the event in a checked mini dress.
Also attending the beauty company\'s soiree were Emmerdale\'s Gemma Oaten, actress Laura Carter and Miss great Britain, Zara Holland.

| Star Wars newcomer Daisy Ridley braves the autumn chill by putting on an extremely leggy display in thigh-skimming navy dress
Her celebrity status is set to soar after nabbing a role in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
And Daisy Ridley looks ready for superstardom as she sported an uber-glamorous ensemble while heading to Global Radio headquarters in London on Tuesday morning.
The 23-year-old Brit was rocking an incredibly chic-yet-muted navy ensemble comprising of a furry coat with a sexy floating mini dress - which flaunted her slender legs to perfection.
Daisy, who has nabbed the role of scavenger Rey in the movie, which is the first in the Disney Star Wars sequel trilogy, looked stunning in the minimalist look.
Image: long bridesmaid dresses
The navy fur coat exuded a 1960s vibe, due to its A-line hem and above-knee length while her dress coordinated perfectly with the look.
The chiffon number featured a unique, crossover detail with a double-layered hem, which was higher than that of the coat - allowing a generous glimpse at her legs.
Showing her intricate attention to detail, Daisy sported matching pointed heels which added height to her already statuesque frame.
Daisy gave the look a grungy feel with her shaggy, centre-parted bob which fell into unkempt waves which skimmed her shoulders.
Her make-up was tastefully minimal with a slick of bronze eye shadow and a dab of subtle pink lipstick.
The finishing touch to the ensemble was her slick navy manicure - perfectly tying in the navy theme of the outfit.
In an interview with ASOS Magazine earlier this month Daisy, who previously notched up roles in Mr Selfridge and Casualty, spoke about how she feels the world is her oyster at this age and stage in her career.
\'I feel for a 20-something woman especially, the opportunities are broader than they were. People\'s voices can be heard easier than before. But it\'s a scary time to be alive, the world is a scary place. Yet it\'s also exciting, with new voices of hope in our generation, like Malala,\' she pointed out.
Daisy added that she\'s taken inspiration from her biggest role to date for her 2016 motto, declaring her plan is to \'keep enjoying things all the time and just enjoy the ride…as Han Solo says, "Here\'s where the fun begins".\'

There\'s simply nothing more luxurious than slipping into silk sleepwear at the end of a long day. If it\'s not resting under your pillow, it might be time to join celebrities Zara Phillips and Bic Runga in raving about New Zealand\'s Willa & Mae.
The sleepwear label has just launched a new collection \'200 Motels\', inspired by prolific fashion photographer Helmut Newton. The robes, chemise, camisole and pants are all designed and made in New Zealand.
"We\'re celebrating summer with beautiful, simple designs using a stunning colour palate of coral, aqua, pearl and noir," says Tauranga\'s Rana Reuther who started Willa & Mae with her sister Emma Clark less than a year ago. "What we love about silk is that it\'s strong, long lasting and super soft.
Image: one shoulder bridesmaid dresses
"It\'s also hypo-allergenic and keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter."
So how did a former property valuer and research nurse fall into the fashion industry?
"We grew up surrounded by our mother\'s Vogue magazines but never considered a career in fashion until we were looking for a silk robe to take on holiday, and had no luck," says former valuer Emma, who also runs homeware store Veranda on Waiheke Island. "After two years of research we took the plunge and started Willa & Mae. It\'s been a huge year, including showing at New Zealand Fashion Week."
Both Rana and Emma agree their early success has come from hard work and surrounding themselves with people they trust.
"You can\'t be creative and expect a business to grow without proper support in place," says Emma. "We have high-quality, ethical manufacturers and only use the best natural fabric suppliers from around the world."
Rana says they also brought on RightWay accountant Richard Glubb, who set up Xero and offers ongoing business advice.
"This has been hugely beneficial. It means we can spend time doing what we love; staying ahead of fashion trends, designing sleepwear and listening to our customers."
