Red carpet alert: Drew Barrymore tries Victoria Beckham on for size

Adding another celebrity fan to her growing client base is Victoria Beckham. The former Spice Girl's designs have broken through to the red carpet of Hollywood after Drew Barrymore wore one of her A/W 2009 dresses to the première of Everybody's Fine. The purple figure-hugging Giral dress has already been worn by Victoria Beckham and Katherine Jenkins, but still managed to shine on Drew who added her own touch of a silver pin. A black version of the same dress has also been worn by Elle Macpherson. Like it? There is a similar style still available on Net-a-Porter. That's if you have a handy £1,195 to spend.

For the festive season it's all about the frocks at Peacocks. And the budget retailer has enlisted the help of Pearl Lowe to design its new range and her daughter Daisy to model it. Talk about a fash-family combo! While we're used to seeing Daisy modelling for labels such as Marc Jacobs, it's on the high street in her mum's Christmas collection that she'll soon be recognised the most. Lucky for her there isn't a reindeer jumper in sight!

Pick of the Day: French Connection beaded dress

french connection dress.jpg

Summery but substantial this French Connection dress (£150) will easily take you from the office to your Friday night out no problem. The pale colour is a great nod to the nude/fleshtone look and the embellishments are bang on trend.

It's a simple shift shape but the embellishment adds enough interest to make it work for the evening. A velvety black pair of tights will work just fine, but for something a bit special try a sheer black polka dotted pair. The length means you can also pair it with a pair of 7/8ths trousers, pumps and a beat-up denim jacket for a more rough and ready take on gallic chic.

CQ First: Emma Cook's new animal-inspired Topshop range

Thankfully whispers last month of her early demise from the industry turned out to be just that. Emma Cook is clearly still going strong, as proved by latest range for Topshop. African animals and woodland creatures appear to have played a major role in inspiring her new seven-piece collection. Her signature jersey and silk dresses and tops are printed in deer, swan, zebra and giraffe motifs. They will be available from 23rd July (UK stores).

Asda does a £16 version of Kate Moss's sparkly Balmain dress

asda_katemoss_balmaindress.jpg


Just when you think the line between high street and designer couldn't get any more blurred, George at Asda come along and do their own version of Kate Moss's sparkly Balmain dress for just £16. The silver and black space-like dress was worn by the supermodel in April, as she went out for dinner at Nobu, and attended a launch party for her friend Shaun Leane. Many of you loved it for its exaggerated shoulders and super '80s glitz, and therefore will welcome this much cheaper version. Having said that, I'm sure many of you won't. Goddiva also did a high street copy a couple of months ago, but it's now all sold out.
