Telling you about how awesome Truffle Shuffle is has been top of our to-do list since… well, forever really. However, just to prove how awesome they are, they’ve given us some goodies to give you so now we have no excuses – http://www.truffleshuffle.com is truly awesome. It’s official.
*The entries have been counted, verified and laughed over (freakish numbers of people seem to think they will win by not answering the question – if we wanted to just give away stuff with absolutely no effort required, why we would we bother putting a question?!) and I’m pleased to announce the winners of our Elsiebelle competition. Just before I do, your style icons made for interesting reading – woman of the moment Cheryl Cole strutted off with about 20% of the vote (4x as much as her nearest competitors Fearne Cotton and Kate Moss), wooden spoon entry was a last-minute vote for Jedward (it was the shiny red leather suits, I assume) and there was a severe wtf moment in the form of William Shakespeare. But onto the winners and congrats to...*
Gwen Stefani – Jade C, Cheshire
Missy Higgins – Catherine M, Hertfordshire
A mix of Kimberley Walsh & Cheryl Cole – Gemma T, Falkirk
Olivia Palermo – Claire N, Cheshire
Rachel Bilson – Clare W, Sheffield
Blake Lively – Emily W, Glasgow
Zooey Deschanel – Libby M, USA
Lady Gaga ‘Wish I had the balls (metaphorical) to pull it off’ – Ashleigh M, Norwich (we’re pleased those balls are metaphorical btw!)
We found ourselves wandering in Topshop’s jewellery section the other day – and you know what? We were pretty disappointed. Far too much of it looked cheaper than its actual cost (of course, now we’ve said this, we’ve just gone to look on their website and seen about five things we love but never mind…) and these days, every Tom, Dick and Debbie is seen sporting a Topshop pendant. Frankly, we needed some inspiration – and along it came in the form of an email from the lovely folk at http://www.elsiebelle.com. Elsiebelle’s range of jewellery is nothing short of delightful; cute, quirky, vintage, lovely and that little bit out of the ordinary, they’re certainly ticking all our boxes (much to the distress of our bank accounts). And they’ve gone up even more in our estimation given that they’ve agreed to give some of their finest necklaces away to you, for free.
Editor’s note: I’m shit, this article has been knocking about in the teentoday.co.uk inbox for too long. The headband was proudly nestled in Cheryl’s glorious mane a few weeks back. Must do better. Sorry.
After the dress monstrosities from Mrs Cole recently there is a little glimmer of style amidst the madness and it comes in the form of a sparkly head band as seen on last Saturday’s show. Cheryl teamed her Atelier Versace Grecian dress with a £350 Jenny Packham headband that looked gorgeous nestled amongst her L’Oreal curls. Dannii’s even getting in on the action with a little glittery number spotted nestling in her crimped locks. Trust us, this is gonna be a big look in the run up to Christmas, just team with loose curls or a simple up do and a Little Black Dress for Channi chic.
She’s one-third of Britain’s most obnoxious girl group, longstanding friend of teentoday.co.uk and now the newest addition to our supremely passionate ranty and some-would-say talented writing team… it’s Lucie Kay. Though not a fan of full stops and apostrophes (and her shift button was obviously busted as there wasn’t ONE SINGLE capitalised word throughout this piece up to 20mins ago) Lucie’s love of great music and quirky sense of style (plus the fact she’s always up for sharing a bottle of cheap white wine) makes her a firm favourite with the rest of the teentoday.co.uk team. Oh, and whilst other teen sites, who shall remain nameless, appear to struggle to pull together a single article with substance, we’ve roped in top 46 chart acts to write for us. How amazing is that? Hit “see more” for Lucie’s introduction to Gothic style, and a whole load of too-much-information about teentoday.co.uk’s nights on the town.
With the desire to live your life through a screen becoming more popular, games which present a skewed view of reality have really taken off. First there was Rollercoaster World, Sim City and Lemonade Stand on PCs, but now you can create your own world in the palm of your hand. One of the latest examples of these faux-reality games is Style Boutique for the Nintendo DS. Hit “see more” to see if it’s hit or shit, and have your say too.
Whilst it may seem we’re all about Cheryl Cole on teentoday.co.uk at the moment, judging by the sheer volume of comments it seems you guys can’t stop chattering away about the Geordie madam either. It’s time for Style Wars Week 2 so let’s not designer skirt around the issue, we’ll dive straight in to the ensemble everyone’s talking about (no not Whitney’s wardrobe malfunction) Cheryl and THAT performance outfit. Hit see “more"…
