We love celebrity fashion pics. We know were not supposed to, we know there are better things to do with our time than discussing the dots and the t’s as to who wore what and how they looked but at the end of the day we’re just so nosy.

Having recently seen all the pics from this years celebrity infused whirlwind that is the Metropolitan Costume Ball we thought we might share with L’Onglex readers.

Our favourite so far has to be Katy Perry who turned up in a dress with some sort of lighting show attached. All the talk so far has been how the lights change colour but when we scratched round a bit we liked that in the end she finally had to confess to the fashion world that the switch to change colour and the battery pack for the whole shebang was located somewhere in her cleavage !

Quite why the pop princess chose to bring her own spotlights and attach them to her dress is beyond our reckoning but since the invites for this years event somehow didn’t make it to L’Onglex Towers I think we’re allowed to be just a touch bitchy …..

How to get fishtail plaits

We at L’Onglex love fishtail plaits. It’s one of our favourite catwalk trends at the moment and when we came across these ‘how to’ shots by Charles Worthington we we’re delighted. So much so that we’ve put them in a gallery.

If your wondering how it’s done, the basic premise is keep it messy! Fishtail plaits are best styled with hair thats a bit matted as opposed to hair thats squeeky clean and straight out the shower.

After the third attempt we finally got the look we wanted and we finally worked out the key is volume.

A big thanks to the folks at Charles Worthington for sharing these shots with us.
