Kate Moss collection launched

Frenzied fashion fans gathered outside Topshop on Oxford Street as Kate Moss's fashion collection hit the high street retailer's flagship store.
The crowd frantically took pictures on mobile phones and cameras during the brief show as the supermodel posed alongside mannequins in the shop window for around 10 seconds dressed in a long red dress worn with a belt.

A few minutes later the model enjoyed a glass of champagne inside the store and chatted to Sir Philip Green, billionaire boss of Arcadia Group, of which Topshop is a part.

Sir Philip walked Kate towards the collection as the first batch of 150 shoppers rushed in for their 20 minutes viewing.

Describing the launch, Sir Philip said: "It is exciting. It wouldn't be here if we didn't believe in it. This is about building a business. This is about whether we can build something that is real."

Commenting on Kate's designs, he said: "Her style is different."

Each batch of 150 shoppers was allowed to browse for 20 minutes after which they could buy up to five different items. A £45 floral pansy print dress was one of the most popular items.

Customers were allowed to try on a maximum of eight items and buy five to discourage shoppers selling on eBay.

'backstage'

Did a fun fun shoot on Thursday with Corina and make up artist Carol Beecher who both rock supremely. Photees will be up shortly, they rock supremely also. Here are some behind the scenes (stole some of these off Carol's bebo)

it looks so gorgeous. but it was f***ing cold.

Stylist Corina Gaffeygaff never ceases to amaze me with her fantastic poses!

I recently did a beauty shoot with amazing MAC make up artist Lynn McKenna. Be sure to check out her site very soon when it is launched. In the meantime, here are a few photees from the shoot

WAAAAAH! WESTLIFE!!!

Last week after a crazeee busy day I gathered my last energies to go shoot Westlife in The Point during one of their 12 nights there. I was never a massive fan or anything- but now I am! They were BRILLIANT ! I could completely understand why all the girls were going mad (JAYSUS it was loud!) The guys were so very charming (and hot!). Here are some photees.

cuuuuuutsie

i luv CSS

the weekend started Thursday really when me and Corina Gaffeygaff went over to Agatha Stoinska's launch of her new studio which was loads of fun. Ended up going out afterwards with the lovely makeup artist Ellie from Morgan and her mate which I forgot the name of. oopsie) and just went to all the lovely hot spots on Hartcourt Street (including Crystal and Coppers- what were we thinking)
On Friday just went for tapas in town (which were shit) and then got some dvds and chilled. Watched "Wolf Creek" which so wasn't as scary as Una said it would be so I was a bit disapointed. Also watched "Pledge this" which was so crap but also amazing because Paris Hilton is in it and she's hot. Saturday I met up with Co and we went to the launch of the Loft Market in Powerscourt which was great.

Bumped into many familiar faces like fab Jewelerry designer Jennifer Kinnear who will soon be launching her new website with my photees and stylist Aisling Farinella who runs the The Loft. Also met loads of people which I know from the world of the interweb like Arsheen from Dublin based fashion blog FashionFilosofy who was there snapping away and stylist and designer Ciara O'Donovan who has her own label in the Loft.
Then on our way out, I was just telling Corina how slippy the stairs were when an elderly lady behind us slipped and hurt her ankle. Poor thing. We waited around for the ambulance with her and then went for foodsies in Cafe Irie.
Later on that evening we did flyers for the CSS aftershow party outside the Ambassador and randomly ended up with 3 free tickets to the show which was completely sold out. YAYSIES.

I had never seen them before so I was really excited, and omg they were BRILLIANT! The amount of energy on stage was unbelievable!
We then headed to the CSS aftershow party where they were doing a DJ set which was loads and loads of fun.



Well done to Anto and the Remedy crew for this night. After that we headed over to the music Centre for Anthony's 2nd night which was DJ Hype. He was just finishing his set

so we did our usual of backstage jumping around
