Willow Smith.
She's the daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinket-Smith, she accompanies her mother to New York Fashion Week and now she's landed a residency as the coolest nine-year-old going.
She has just released a new single, in which she sings and treats us to a spot of MC. Whip My Hair (watch it here via http://www.youtube.com/) is a sure-fire tune to get you in the party mood and did I mention she's NINE?
So along with living a pretty nifty life so far, Willow is set to make her own name as big as her parents. Watch this space.

The time of the cinema-goers
It's getting to that time of year again when going to the cinema is actually something to get really excited about. Yes, I do love a nice trip to see the latest film, my most recent one being The Town with Ben Affleck about a group of bank robbers in Charlestown, the "bank robbing capital of America", according to the action film's tagline, and tonight is no different.
My Friday night is going to be spent watching the much anticipated film about the creation of social networking phenomenon Facebook. The Social Network, which comes out today (15 October) follows Mark Zuckerberg and crew who dropped out of Harvard University only to become the world's youngest billionnaires. Pretty nifty ey?
The excitement goes beyond this little two hour stint in the movie theatre though, a much more exciting film to have popped up on my agenda for the 19 November is nothing other than the first part of the finale in the Harry Potter series. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part one in 2D (the second part will be shown in 3D) is taking Hollywood by storm and I for one can't wait.
Film promoters for the Harry Potter film are hammering the exposure (as they should) and have just released new character posters. Have a look for yourself here. The countdown begins here.

Obsessed, I know
Just as the time since my last post becomes increasingly distant, I felt it apt to mention my latest hair crush (es). My hair-dar has found Dannii Minogue and Keira Knightley who both recently sported new bob do's. I just love the bob, what can I say?
The lenths, the 'roots' look and the gorge texture, yes, yes please.

Oh what a technical hitch
The presenter of Australia's Next Top Model may be in need of a career change after a reputation-staining mistake made during the announcement of the show's winner.
The wrong name was called as the winner, a mistake the presenter had to regretably correct just 30 seconds after celebrations commenced.
The show's producers said that there had been a mix up with the live feed to the presenter.
Gutted wouldn't be the word.

Striking
Could there be a better cover to celebrate 25 years of Elle UK? I think not.
October's issue of the magazine hosts cover girl Kate Hudson. And how beautiful she looks too.
First coming across this eye-catching cover at Carlisle train station I was immediately a fan. The cover just stands out amongst the tens of other magazines in a similar market.
25 years in the making, Elle, you did well, very well.

Save the date
Creative director of Lanvin, Alber Elbaz has announced that he will be collaborating with high street store, H&M.
The highly anticipated range will hit 200 stores worldwide on 23 November 2010.
The Lanvin designer follows in the footsteps of Sonia Rykiel, Stella McCartney, Karl Lagerfeld and Madonna.
Lea Michele - cover star?
There's no doubt about it that Lea Michele, star of Glee and now a regular at red carpet events, always looks stunning. She graces the red carpet every time in an ensemble to really make waves in.
But I'm just not that sure if she's magazine cover material. Sure she is super talented and red carpet savvy, but covers, really?
In the latest issue of Glamour, the cover girl declares that she is "the girl who eats", well she isn't eating that much by the look of her svelte figure in an Oscar de la Rente gown at last week's Emmys.

Love the colour.
Daring in sunshine yellow. Statement red lips add glamour.
Sophisticated.
Snaps for Ben di Lisi
Debuted in the British press earlier this year, the Principles by Ben di Lisi range for Debenhams breaks the fashion boundaries by featuring the first disabled model in any High Street advertising campaign.
The new campaign was launched with the help of How to Look Good Naked's Gok Wan and was unveiled on his show last night on Channel 4.
Both beautiful and inspiring, the campaign includes models of all shapes and sizes; tall, short or plus-sized.
The designers said that he wanted to make clothes that can be worn by everyone, no matter their shape or size.

Dress for the occasion
It's September. Amongst the end of the school holidays, the beginning of Autumn and the drunken haze of Freshers' Week, this means one thing. My 21st birthday.
And in true party style, I am already looking for the dress.
The dress has to be gorge and accompanied by even more gorgeous shoes and what better way to start my search that the wonderment of internet shopping. Okay so I didn't actually shop (still trying to cut back) but I did find some styles that I quite like.
I have to admit that I am rather excited at properly shopping for the b-day outfit and will scoure the rails no end.
Here is the 'narrowed' down list of dresses that I am currently lusting over and if I had my way I would have them all, ahh the quiet delight of wishful thinking.

Copy cat
After much covetting of Burberry's shearling aviator style bomber jacket and reading fellow bloggers swooning over the idea of adding one to their closet, I have willingly jumped on the copy cat bandwaggon.
While many designers and high street names are showcasing their versions for the coming season, there is yet to be one to look really good (hard in comparison to the perf Burberry one) and that doesn't break the bank.
New Look has launched their AW winter warmers range and it comes complete with the aviator knock-off.
For £39.99, this brown leather and sheepskin jacket is just a tad cheaper than the £2195 Burberry original.
