But besides the general public, there have been a few celebrity fashion crimes in the last week that have really got on my wick…

Firstly it has to be Kelly Osbourne and THAT black DVF dress she wore at Amy Winehouse’s funeral. I say THAT dress simply because I own the same bloody one!!! Please oh please don’t let it look as bad on me! Clearly shapewear is a must!!

Still on the theme of Kelly Osbourne, after shooting her mouth off over the ever increasing size of Christina Aguilera (err..pot-kettle-black!) Kelly decided to let rip on Kate Middleton and her recent fashion faux pas for recycling clothes. OK we all get Kate’s Thrifty Britain and the modern monarchy, but as Kelly pointed out “If you are going to be future queen of England, you would at the very least wear a different dress to very public events”.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      I have to agree with Kelly on this one. It is not so much the recycling that bothers me, it’s the choice of dowdy outfit. The green DVF dress (first seen in Canada and then the night before Zara’s wedding), and then of course the silver coat (first seen in 2006 and then again on Zara’s wedding day); They all look like she raid Camilla’s wardrobe!

Kate: My final plea – Please Call Me!!!!!

Then I have to move onto a women who really gets on my nerves; Kate Garraway – brand ambassador for Monsoon. Given this week’s selection of outfits, I am wondering how long it will take for Monsoon to realise that rather than promote the high street chain, Kate is killing it off with her constant prissy styling. Not so much Boho more Uh-Oh!!!!

And then the most henious fashion crime of the week has to go to Kate Moss. I promise this has nothing to do with my personal distaste for this women (much), but you would have thought in all her years of being photographed she would have at least learnt what swimwear suits her shape!

Mind you at least we can all satisfy ourselves in knowing that even supermodels have their fat days!!!

Simple, they both launched their new ranges of gorgeous  lingerie and was one of the lucky people who got to go and meet them at their private press party launches!

First up on Wednesday night was Theo’s turn to unveil his new lingerie retail venture Boux Avenue at swanky The Ivy in Covent Garden.

Many oohs and arhhhs could be heard cooing out of the most sceptical mouths within the fash pack as the new brand really did exceed every one’s level of anticipation.

Broken into 3 different stories, of pretty vintage inspired pieces with girly french knickers and floral camisoles, to sexy burlesque basques to easy shapewear that would smooth over any bump, the size range is a wide A cup right through to a K! Better still prices are between £10 and £32 for a bra. Bargain!

Stores are due to open end of March including one in Bluewater so ladies who I shop with there, we WILL be visiting the new store!

Ps: The cucumber and elderflower martinis were soooo good!!!!

Next up for Thursday morning breakfast was Gok’s latest shapewear collection for Simply Be. And it was definitely very ‘Gokalicious’! Pretty dusty pinks and sexy black corsets, basques and waspies were on display to show any girl how to work her curves. Lots of ‘Gorgeous’ and ‘Work it Girlfriend!’ could be heard coming out of a certain someone’s mouth. Honestly he really is just like he is on the TV! Shame the fash pack girls that attended this launch seemed to think they also had celeb status. It certainly was handbags at dawn as girls tussled to talk to the main man. Slightly pathetic but very funny to watch in the background!
