A Chanel inspired mani.

With flash:

Without flash:

The latest "must-have" Chanel nailpolish is called Riva. It doesn't seem very special to me, but I did check my collection to find out if I had any similar shades. I have 2 options: Eyeko-Pastel Polish (an old bottle) and Color Club- Take me to you chateau. In the pics I'm wearing Color Club topped with 1 coat of CND Effects- Gold Sparkle. I have no idea if this comes close to Riva since I don't own it, but it'll definitely give you "the look for less"!
I wonder how many people are willing to spend 30 bucks on a plain blue polish. I won't. Never ever....

In the News...

Jimmy for your Jimmy!!

Shoe lovers rejoice!! Tamara Mellon (founder of Jimmy Choo) has decided at long last to expand the Jimmy Choo brand to cater to men. The collection (prices starting from £395) boasts items like the Chelsea boot (pictured right) and a pair of croc-print wellies that we at Glam Angel are in LOVE with (so what if they were made with men in mind!) Although not the first option for the financially challenged, Jimmy Choo is a much loved, much celebrated shoe brand that was founded by Mrs Mellon and her cobbler friend Jimmy Choo in 1996, later earning Mrs Mellon an OBE for her services to business and charity. Jimmy Choo also recently released a perfume fragrance (with Tamara as the feature model for the campaign) and has previously lit up the high street wth collaborations with H&M and Ugg.

Glam Angel says: Gorgeous, gorgeous GORGEOUS!! But what else do we expect from the infallable Jimmy Choo? Now not only will we be raiding our fella's closets for shirts and slouchy cardigans but we have a reason to get at his shoe collection too!! Get in!!

Giuliana Hits out: Get up out my Grill!!

Focusing on themselves: Giuliana, who has been married to Bill Rancic since 2007, says they are are now focusing on their relationship

Popular E!News host Giuiana Rancic has lashed out at claims that her weight is behind her struggle to conceive. She and husband Bill have documented their journey through two failed cycles of IVF, the first ending in a miscarriage at 9weeks, through their reality show Giuliana and Bill which shows on The Style Network, prompting many viewers to criticise Giuliana for her skinny appearance, with a lot of people believing that Mrs Rancic may achieve a much wanted pregnancy if she gains a few pounds. Not so, says Giuliana, insisting thather doctors have assured her that her weight has nothing to do with her inability to conceive.

Referring to pint-sized stylist Rachel Zoe who is currently 8 months pregnant Giuliana hit back saying: 'Rachel Zoe is pregnant! To all the haters, get informed! Go Google it...it has nothing to do with anything,'

She added: 'There are thin girls with infertility issues, normal sized girls with infertility issues and overweight girls with infertility issues,'

'Unless your doctor tells you your weight is affecting you in some way...once the doctor rules it out, that's really not it.' She insisted.

The couple are now taking a break from fertility treatment as the last attempt was especially difficult for Giuliana. She says she has never been happier despite her continued battle to conceive, telling Radar: 'We're on a bit of a time out. I'm not going to kid you, it's kind of going well. We're loving it.'

Glam Angel says: Infertility is an often heartbreaking and very complicated issue. While some people may offer advice in love based on outward appearances and assumptions it is super important to remember that not only is it inappropriate and often hurtful to make such assumptions and accusations but it is unfair to criticise someone who is already in an emotionally vulnerable position. After watching Giuliana and Bill Rancic's television show we can only wish them the very best of luck and hope they are blessed with what their hearts desire most.

Katie Pricey Divorces Twicey...=/

Katie Price has now CONFIRMED that she and husband of 11months, Alex Reid have officially split up. She released an essay of a statement explaining that Alex had become 'fascinated' by life in the spotlight and exhibited 'difficult' behaviour. Alex is said to be upset but is yet to release his own statement to the press. He is, however rumored to be penning a tell-all book about his time as Mr. Katie Price. The final straw is said to have been the release of posed for pictures of Alex and Katie's son Junior wrestling around in a boxing ring. As Katie has taken steps to remove her children from the public eye, this has been described as the ultimate betrayal in Katie's eyes. Here is the full statement released by Ms Price:

The picture that broke the camel's back: Price hit the roof when she saw this snap of Reid teaching her son Junior to fight - against her specific wishes

Alex and I have had a number of difficulties over the past few months. I accept that these were in part caused by my marrying too quickly – we all make mistakes and this was one. However, Alex changed from the man I fell in love with and some of his behaviour became difficult for me to understand and caused issues. I have tried to help him with these issues but they have put a considerable strain on our relationship.

Our difficulties were also not helped by Alex becoming more fascinated by life in the media eye. Obviously I cannot be critical of someone wanting to do this and originally I tried to help him with his career by getting him contracts with my production company. If Alex wants to honour those contracts the production company is more than happy to do so. However, Alex’s desire to promote himself caused a change in the dynamic of our relationship and contributed to our alienation.

Alex and I have spent many hours discussing our relationship and trying to make it work but the issues between us are too deep rooted. I had hoped that we could end our relationship amicably and without a war of words in the media. I appreciate that there are those that will not believe that but I had agreed I would say nothing more than the statement we had jointly prepared. This was not because I am concerned what Alex may truthfully disclose but to give him comfort that I would not discuss the issues that so strained our relationship.

I had hoped that Alex and I could remain friends but I am not sure if that is possible given events since last Sunday when we were on the verge of releasing a statement. Alex asked that we did not release any statement because he wanted more time to think. The intervening period has, however, seen a number of false stories appear and photographs of Alex with my son Junior in the gym which it is absolutely clear were posed for. Alex is fully aware that I have sought to remove my children from the public eye now they are of an age to understand and be affected by media coverage of them. I feel incredibly let down that he did this while asking me for more time to discuss our relationship and just hope that the stories circulating that he sold those pictures are not true.

It is true that I have asked Alex to leave the family home and that he will not do so. I would leave myself but the house is equipped for Harvey’s needs. Alex would like to portray himself as honourable and I hope he acts that way. Contrary to some reports I have not discussed financial matters with my divorce lawyers.

I would like to make clear that the allegations that I have been dragging out any announcement so that my film crew can capture on film Alex’s upset are complete fabrication. I am deeply upset that my relationship with Alex has failed but I know it is the right thing for my children and I that we separate. My children are my absolute priority in this and they are being shielded from what is happening.

Katie also took to her Twitter to thank fans for supporting her during this 'sad time'.

Glam Angel says: We may have been the only ones but we had hoped that they'd prove everyone wrong and work things out. Oh well...another celeb marriage bites the dust =(
