Another MAC collaboration!


And this time its with DC Comics to create a cosmetic line inspired by Wonder Woman.
The limited edition line will launch in spring 2011 ranging from £8.50 ($13) to £32 ($49.50). We predict bold colours of golds and blues and a certain scarlet-coloured product.

Gossip Girl Battle it Out At Chanel!

Chanel's Haute Couture runway show in Paris didn't fail to impress (as always) although were not too sure on the choices of Leighton Meester or Blake Lively. Whilst Leighton's dress is edgy, were not sure on her pasty skin or the shoes, and Blake looks slightly casual with the whole 'Cali' surfer girl hair look, not sure where she was going with that, but we love her shoes and the sunkissed skin!

In The Mix: T.I

Right now were loving T.I, not only for his sexyness but also his vocals on Drake's 'Fancy' which is set to be a huge hit for the summer. Check it out now on youtube and you wont be dissapointed!

What Day Time Look Are You?


Are you going to be rocking Ciara's tough girl look or Kourtney's Miami look this summer? Although we love the toughness of Ciara's outfit and of course the cargo jeans, Kourtney's look is just that much more summery, and we love it!

Style Icon: Queen Rania of Jordan

Queen Rania - EveningFashion Trends & Styles - Polyvore






Hailed as the Jackie O of the Middle East, Queen Rania is in every way an icon. A mother of 4 and a humanitarian, Queen Rania devotes her time to needy causes like the Gaza Strip where 95% of newborn babies do not have access to clean water and to push for education for all in the 1Goal campaign featuring some of the world's most famous footballers.
As well as efforts to improve education, she has initiated an online debate on the video sharing site YouTube.

The queen is asking viewers to send in comments about their ideas of Islam and the Arab world. She then appears and discusses her reaction to the comments. She wanted to take the debate online and ask young people to participate in order to "bring them into the conversation because they are the ones that can change the discourse."

Queen Rania was voted the 3rd most beautiful women in 2005 by Harper's Bazaar and Queen magazine.


Queen Rania continues to inspire women of all backgrounds with her beauty, intelligence and elegance.

The F Word Safina's Favourite Hair Trend: Hair Accessories

hair accesoriesFashion Trends & Styles - Polyvore







Hair accessories are a great way to reinvent an outfit and to simply compliment one. I love how versatile these accessories are from sleek thin banded alice-bands to feathered clips, plus they can be worn day or night! Jessica Alba shows us how to wear a feathery headband casually by keeping the rest of the outfit simple.
For a modern take, try Nicole Richie's middle eastern inspired headwear from her very own label House of Harlow.

For smaller budgets, Urban Outfitters, Johnny loves Rosie and Accessorize all do great designer inspired hair accessories.

First Look: Topshop A/W 2010
























Even though the chilly months during autumn and winter seems worlds away as summer begins, here is a first look of Topshop's collection of these seasons.
Above are some of our favourite looks - love the briefcase bag!

Cover Story: MIA for Complex Magazine












MIA looks hot in the June/July 2010 cover for Complex.
In this issue, MIA (who is engaged to Ben Brewer, son of billionaire Edgar Bronfman Jr) talks about her new album and motherhood saying:

On her son's diverse family background: "At the moment, he's staying with me at my mum's - her house is in the projects, so the house is like the size of somebody's closet in California. But at the same time, he's got his grandpa on the other side, Ben's dad, who is at the complete opposite end of the spectrum. I think as long as he has both extremes, that's where his lessons are gonna be learned. I want him to grow up here and spend as much time as possible with his grandma to learn the things I learned growing up in this house. He needs to hang with everybody and meet people and find out what they need and find out what the problems are and what the solutions are."
