The best advert for her own collection! Victoria Beckham dons a figure-hugging dress as she stocks up on clothes for daughter Harper

By Sarah Bull


The best advert for her own collection: Victoria Beckham showed off her post-baby body in a figure-hugging dress of her own design as she headed out in London yesterday


She took home the prestigious Designer Brand of the Year prize at the British Fashion Awards earlier this week.

And it's not hard to see exactly why Victoria Beckham has made a name for herself as one of Britain's foremost fashion designers, when she wears her own designs with such aplomb.

The stunning mother-of-four was spotted showing off her post-baby body in a royal and navy blue outfit from her latest collection as she stocked up on some more clothes for her gorgeous baby daughter Harper in London yesterday.

What about this one? Victoria eyes up coats, dresses and a variety of winter clothes for her four-month-old


Gushing about her new tot at the awards on Monday, she said: 'Harper is absolutely amazing... but I am in love with all of my children. They are all wonderful.

'She has been upstairs in the hotel suite tonight and my parents have been babysitting her. I am missing her already.'

Ever the trendsetter, Victoria teamed her latest outfit, which featured her now signature zip down the back, with a sky-high pair of heels, huge sunglasses and a chic clutch bag.

And it seems four-month-old Harper is set to follow in her mother's very fashionable footsteps, judging by the adorable coats and dresses Victoria splashed out on in the Caramel baby and child store in the capital.


I like these: Shoes were also on the shopping list for Victoria, as she perused the goods on offer at the Caramel baby and child store in central London


Style over comfort: Victoria didn't let her restrictive dress and sky-high heels stop her from bending down to pick up some footwear she had spotted for her little girl

That comes to how much? Among the items Victoria appeared to have purchased for Harper were a £45 pair of Chinchilla Mitts gloves and a £150 Terapin baby coat


Among the items Victoria appeared to have purchased for her little girl included a £45 pair of Chinchilla Mitts gloves and a £150 Terapin baby coat.

Even Victoria's husband David revealed in a recent interview that Harper is already the proud owner of an ever-growing wardrobe, telling Us Magazine: 'She has so many little dresses.'

The LA Galaxy star also revealed that Victoria isn't the only one who has been treating Harper to new items, adding: 'I didn't realise how excited I would get over buying hair bows.'

Since her birth in July, Victoria has been dressing Harper in the trendiest children's wear, with brands favoured including Stella McCartney, French label Bonpoint and Marie-Chantal - a children's clothing brand owned and designed by the Crown Princess of Greece.

Victoria also splurged on a pair of £30 Chloé tights for her adorable little girl last month.

But if Victoria's rumoured plans for a line of children's clothing collection go ahead, it won't be long before Harper is decked out head-to-toe in apparel designed by her talented mother.

According to sources, Victoria has been sketching early designs on the collection, and is firmly fixed on producing a line of children's clothes that will reflect her family life.

Slender: Victoria's royal and navy blue dress highlighted her slim figure


She is said to be keen to set the ball rolling as soon as possible.

'Now Victoria has a family of boys and girls she wants to reflect that in her fashion work and produce a line of clothes for children too,' a source told Showbiz Spy.

'In some of her down time with Harper Victoria has been jotting down drawings and coming up with ideas for kids' clothes that are practical but fun too.

'David is really excited about the line too and Victoria can’t wait to get going on the project.'

Victoria's designs were given the ultimate recognition earlier this week when she took home the Designer Brand of the Year prize at the British Fashion Awards.

Accepting her prize, an emotional Victoria broke down in tears before apologising to the star-studded audience.

'I'm so sorry for crying. I'm being so rubbish,' she said.

She added: 'I would like to thank the British fashion industry for your support. I'd like to thank my team, you all know who you are, your focus, your creativity, I couldn't do it without you.

'Simon Fuller, a dear friend and the best business partner that anybody could possibly ask for.

'My parents, my kids and my husband. Without David I wouldn't have had the courage to do what I am doing.'

Mummy in training! Pregnant Jessica Simpson bonds with nephew Bronx on outing with sister Ashlee

By Daily Mail Reporter


Let's get practising: Jessica Simpson showed her maternal side as she carried her nephew Bronx as she stepped out in New York today with sister Ashlee


Ashlee Simpson may be the younger sister - but she does have three years of experience on her side at being mother.

Today the 27-year-old singer and actress stepped out with her pregnant sister Jessica - who nurtured her maternal side by doting over her cute little nephew Bronx.

Jessica, 30, who is pregnant with her first child, poured her burgeoning figure into a low-cut patterned dress as she carried the three-year-old tot.


Bronx looked cute in a pair of tweed trousers and a hat while his mother Ashlee went for a high-necked black ensemble with a colourful patterned collar.

No doubt Ashlee will be a great support for her sis and will be able to help her with mothering and pregnancy tips.

Ashlee spilt from her husband Pete Wentz earlier this year - but the couple are still on good terms and share parental duties with their son.


Taking tips: At 27 Ashlee is three years yonger than Jessica, but has three years of experience at being a mother on her side

Dangerous curves: True to form, Jessica poured her curves into a low-cut dress, which she teamed with tights and black heels


Jessica, meanwhile, is engaged to sportsman Eric Johnson - and the two are set to marry following the birth of their first child.

Simpson recently spoke to People.com about how much she loves being pregnant.

But speaking about her pregnancy glow she remarked: 'People always say that pregnant women have a glow,' she told People. 'And I say it's because you're sweating to death.'


Out on the town: Jessica and fiance Eric Johnson ventured out in New York together last night

Spilling over: The reality star and businesswoman showed off her curvaceous figure yesterday in the Big Apple


'I think they just tell pregnant women they're glowing to make them feel good about themselves, because everything makes them a little bit emotional.''

Pregnancy was meant for me – it really was,' she added. 'I can't wait to have more kids. I love being pregnant.

Simpson today stepped out with Johnson and sister Ashlee at the launch of her Jessica Simpson Girls line in New York, has made no secret of the fact she likes to show off her baby bump - but is yet to give an indication of her due date.


Animal style: Simpson looked stunning today at the launch of her Jessica Simpson Girls line at Dylan's Candy Bar in New York

Glowing: The actress and businesswoman held her blossoming baby bump as she and fiancé Eric Johnson posed at the launch today


'I have such an incredible connection with myself and with my body that I've never had before.'

And the businesswoman and singer can also see the spiritual side of expecting a baby.

'Just knowing that you're creating a life is such a spiritual thing,' she said. 'Everything is growing, but you're making a life. It's pretty cool.'

Blonde ambition: Ashlee Simpson wore a grey and black sweater dress, black tights and heels as she posed alongside her beaming sister


Today, she looked stunning in a leopardskin print dress, black tights and a black jacket as she posed alongside Johnson with her hand on her baby bump.

Her younger sister Ashlee was also there to lend her support.

Wearing a black and grey striped sweater dress, black tights and heels, she happily posed alongside her beaming sibling.

They joined Dylan Lauren, daughter of designer Ralph and Jessica Seinfeld, wife of Jerry at the big launch.

'I was a hippo mama': Jennifer Ellison gives a sneak peek of her fitness DVD after losing FIVE STONE

By Emily Sheridan


How do I look? Jennifer Ellison shows off her trim figure as she poses in the make-up room in between filming her fitness DVD advert


After going up five dress sizes during her pregnancy with son Bobby, Jennifer Ellison described herself as a 'hippo mama'.

But after losing five stone and regaining her pre-baby Size 8 figure, the former Brookside actress has been proudly showing off the results.

And there's no surprise the star has been sharing her weight loss secrets in an upcoming fitness DVD.


As she filmed an advert for her Fat Blaster Workout today, the 28-year-old showed off just how much weight she has lost as she uploaded a photo on her Twitter page.

Alongside the caption: 'Shooting my fitness DVD commercial! Here's a sneaky pic!', the mother-of-one looked super svelte and toned in a sports bra and hotpants.

The latest image shows the Hell's Kitchen winner look even slimmer than her official DVD cover shoot, which she posted online just two weeks ago.


What a change: The former Brookside actress is now a size 8 (left) after losing five stone from her previous size 18 frame (pictured right at boot camp in July 2010)

When she uploaded it last month, she revealed she had lost another stone - taking her to a total weightloss of five stone since giving birth to son Bobby in February 2010.

She enthused: 'Hey guys!! I've lost another stone! Here s a totally untouched pic from my new fitness DVD available to pre-order now.'

The 5ft 7 star admitting ballooning from a size 8 to 18 during her pregnancy and struggled to lose the weight afterwards.

She lost some weight last year after enrolling at boot camp in preparation for her nude scenes in the touring production of Calendar Girls.

Reflecting on her weight gain, she said: 'I got huge. I looked like a hippo.

'I had absolutely no idea how I had ballooned during my pregnancy. All I thought about was eating plenty of food to keep my baby healthy.

'I was pregnant at the same time as Coleen Rooney and Denise Van Outen. Denise seemed to snap straight back into her normal clothes and I remember looking at Coleen and thinking I was always much tinier than her and now she was smaller than me.'

Ellison and husband Robbie Tickle welcomed their son Bobby in February 2010 after a gruelling 92-hour labour.

Bobby's arrival came a few months after they wed in Mauritius in October 2009 - 18 months after they started dating.

The new DVD, which is co-presented by celebrity personal trainer Elia Siaperas, sees Ellison go through a five step workout, including Fat Blaster, Tone Blaster, Box Blaster, Power Blaster and Belly Blaster.

The transformation's complete! Amelia Lily ditches the pink and goes back to blonde ahead of X Factor semi-finals

By Sarah Bull


Back to blonde: Amelia Lily has ditched the pink hair and gone back to blonde, as she revealed at the X Factor secret gig in London


She was made over with hot pink hair when she began her journey on The X Factor earlier this year.

But now Amelia Lily has ditched her pink locks for a more grown-up blonde 'do ahead of the semi-finals of the talent show this weekend.

The 17-year-old singer debuted her lighter locks as she performed at an X Factor secret gig alongside her fellow semi-finalists.


Amelia, who was given a second chance and brought back into the competition after Frankie Cocozza was sent home, teamed the blonde hair with a pair of animal-print leggings, glittery boots and a sheer blouse.

Meanwhile, the show finalists have spoken of their delight that their charity single is looking set to get to number one.

The four remaining acts - Amelia, Misha B, Little Mix, and Marcus Collins - collaborated on a cover version of Wishing On A Star to raise money for Together for Short Lives, which provides support for children unlikely to reach adulthood, as well as their families.


Pretty in pink: Amelia was made over with the bright pink hair at the start of the competition

Fading out: In recent weeks, Amelia has been lightening up her pink locks


The single also features the other finalists on the ITV1 show along with previous contestants JLS and One Direction.

The release has been outselling its nearest competitor Olly Murs' Dance With Me Tonight this week by more than two copies to one, according to the Official Charts Company.

Speaking ahead of their performance, Little Mix's Jesy said: 'It would be amazing if we got to number one.

Original: When Amelia auditioned for the show, she had peroxide blonde hair


'It would be an overwhelming feeling knowing that we're helping so many kids.'

Bandmate Perrie added: 'It's such a good cause. When you meet these children you realise how privileged you are to have your health.'

Speaking of being the girl band to have reached the furthest stage in any series of the X Factor, she added: 'We are overwhelmed. We can't believe we've made it so far.

'We were favourite to go in the beginning and now we're here in the semi-final. It's just unbelievable.'

I'm gonna wash that man right out of my... wig: South Pacific's Samantha Womack's fake hairline exposed

By Daily Mail Reporter


Ahoy there! Samantha Womack posed at a photocall for musical South Pacific today at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard


She's supposed to be washing that man right out of her hair... but in this case, it was a fake.

Ex-Eastender Samantha Womack suffered a wig malfunction while meeting officers and crew aboard HMS Victory.

The soap star, who has been tipped to be a judge on Britain's Got Talent, donned a wig and Naval costume to promote the musical, South Pacific.


But gusts picked up aboard the ship at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard, in Hants, leaving Samantha's fake hair blown back and her wig exposed.

However, the 39-year-old was unruffled by the winds and posed with crew ahead of the January tour of the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical.

Samantha stars at The Mayflower Theatre in Southampton, Hants, alongside Alex Ferns, once Britain's most hated soap villain during his stint in Walford.

Wig malfunction: The Ex-EastEnder's fake hairline was exposed


One onlooker aboard the ship said: 'It was blowing a right hooley and was obviously causing some problems with Sam's hair.

'But she carried on smiling and posing like a true professional - she wasn't bothered at all.'

Samantha said: 'I'm loving every minute of playing Nellie. I love the music, the part and the past.

Stage star: The actress is currently starring as Navy nurse Nellie in the Barbican production


'It's been a really good job for me and I'm looking forward to bringing it to Southampton in the new year.'

The show, which is set on a tropical island during the Second World War, premiered in London in August before being toured around the UK.

Womack has been starring in the musical at London's Barbican since August.

Was that the best dress to wear for a big birthday meal? Imogen Thomas dines out in a skintight outfit as she turns 29

By Sarah Bull


Not the best outfit to wear for a birthday meal: Imogen Thomas donned an unforgiving skintight dress as she celebrated turning 29 this week


Many people would opt for a loose outfit if they knew they were going out for a big dinner with friends to celebrate their birthday.

But Imogen Thomas opted to put style above comfort as she turned 29 earlier this week, pouring her curves into a skintight brown dress as she dined with friends at London's Roka restaurant.

And while Imogen was photographed blowing out the candles on her huge chocolate birthday cake, it seems she may not have indulged in any dessert, as she left the eatery looking as slender as when she arrived.

Beautiful in brown: Imogen teamed the strapless dress, which featured sequins on the bust, with a beaming smile and carried balloons and presents


The pretty strapless minidress featured sequinned detailing on the bust, and Imogen teamed her birthday suit with a pair of black heels and a metallic clutch bag.

The former Big Brother star beamed as she left the restaurant carrying balloons and presents, closely followed by her new boyfriend Adam Horsley.

Earlier in the day, Imogen tweeted her excitement about her birthday plans, writing: 'Lush surprise...roka! Love this restaurant. Were gonna rockkkkkkk! X'


Birthday princess: Imogen smiles up at the camera as she blows out her candles

Did you have any? It remains to be seen whether or not Imogen indulged in any of the chocolate cake


She then posted a picture of her and banker Adam cuddling up at the dinner table with her friend Emily Jane, along with the caption: '@emilyjane333 @parris_taylor and ads and moi...rocking it xxx'

Imogen and banker Adam, 26, started dating in October following the reality TV star's split from rugby player Danny Cipriani.

And things appear to be going well for the couple, with Imogen even telling friends that Adam could be 'the one'.

Loved up: Imogen celebrated with boyfriend Adam Horsley


A friend of Imogen's told The Sun: 'She has really fallen hard for Adam. He has no ego and treats her like a princess.'

It has been a busy few months for Imogen, who presented segments on ITV programme This Morning over the summer.

And the former Big Brother star also recently revealed she is aiming to make it in the movie industry after landing a role in a big Hollywood film.

While she said she couldn't reveal much about the movie, Imogen did say: 'I want more acting roles to come along. I see that being my future.

'I'd love to do an action flick or be a Bond girl - that would be amazing. That would be my goal. Or to play Lara Croft. Basically, I just can't wait for people to see me in a bit of a different light.'

'I've had the best laugh of my life': Crissy Rock is still smiling as she is the next camp mate to leave the I'm A Celeb jungle

By Kirsty Mccormack


I'm out: Crissy Rock was the next female to leave the Australian jungle


She might have been on cloud nine with Peter Andre yesterday but today Crissy came crashing back down to earth as she was the next celebrity to leave the jungle.

The Benidorm actress was delighted as Ant and Dec read her name out to the group and she immediately gave Willie Carson a big hug.

'I'm going home Willie, I'm gonna have my bacon and eggs for ya,' she told him.

Hurrah! The Benidorm star didn't look too bothered about not being in the final of the ITV show


As the group asked her what she needed as she prepared to leave she answered: 'Nothing, I'm going home.'

The blonde star managed 19 days in the jungle and was well-known as the camp jester who was always laughing.

'Freedom!' she shouted as she made her way across the bridge.

'Are you pleased to be out?' Dec asked her.

'No, I'm sad but I already won by getting here, I've had a lovely time. The pinnacle was Peter Andre.'

Reunited: Crissy was met by her friend she posed for photographs on the bridge


She also told them that she was shocked that she lasted so long: 'I was in a coma for the first week, but I was on my holidays.'

She then went on to say that she didn't regret not jumping out of the plane at the beginning of the show but said she's had the 'best laugh' of her life.

The conversation then moved on to the camp traitors and Crissy told the hosts: 'We didn't know it was for the good of the group and we had no idea it was Antony and Dougie.'

'Peter was the pinnacle': The blonde actress was delighted to have spent time in camp with Mr Andre


But after talk of the negative vibes in the camp, Crissy expressed her delight at having spent time with Peter Andre.

'If I'd gone out yesterday and missed that I would have been gutted,' she said.
'He's gonna give me special VIP tickets for me and my friend.'

The last question that Ant and Dec asked Crissy was who she would like to see take home the jungle crown.

'At the minute Willie,' she said. 'Because he's been an absolute sport.

Pleased to be there: Crissy said she was gutted to have left but was surprised she lasted as long as she did


'From day one he's wanted to go home but he's still there so either him or Fatima.'
Perhaps it was her unexpected rant with her 'partner in crime' Willie that lost her votes from the public tonight.

The Scottish star slammed Antony and Dougie after he discovered that they were the real camp traitors.

The star called the pair 'f***ing thieves,' and when they tried to explain themselves, he continued with his opinion.


Still annoyed: Willie and Crissy were angry when they discovered that Antony and Dougie were the real camp traitors


'You don’t steal, you don’t lie,' he said. 'I’m seething, annoyed, these thieves get away with it and we do the time. I’m so f***ing angry.

Willie was told he had to spend the night with Crissy in a dark dungeon after they incorrectly guessed who the traitors were.

'If it was just me, I’d have given you a thump and laughed about it,' he said to Antony and Dougie.

'It's turned nasty, condoning stealing, you can’t do this, condoning thieving, and how can this look good?'

Dougie then tried to apologise while Antony attempted to explain that they thought they were winning packages for everyone and did not know the pair would be imprisoned for it.

In trouble: Antony and Dougie were the target of Willie's ongoing rant


'Willie when you get out of here you will see exactly what happened and you will see that you filled in your own blanks and you are wrong,' said Antony.

'As far as we were aware we were doing it for everyone, we don’t get anything out of it. It’s just a game show!'

But Willie still couldn't let it go and later said: 'He’s lucky I didn’t pull him out of the bed last night, I was very close to it. What you are doing to all the kids in England is condoning stealing.

'You don’t steal, you don’t lie, even in a game show. It is selfishness and I can’t condone it.'

We weren't to know: The pair tried to explain to Willie that they didn't know that he would be punished for what they did


But his anger soon turned into a different kind of emotion as Crissy brought in the packages that Antony and Dougie had won for her and Willie from their loved ones.

Crissy was presented with a photo of her friend, some chocolate and her yin and yan balls, while Willie opened a picture of his wife Elaine.

'The emotion gets to you,' he said as he wiped away a tear.

But this seemed to annoy Antony as he felt Willie didn't appreciate what they had done in order for him to get his precious photograph.

No apology: Willie didn't apologise to the pair even though he also received a present from his loved one


'Morals come and go don’t they? He’s not even had the good grace to apologise.

'The horrible thing is we never did anything but they did say those things and they did react that way,' he added.

'You can’t take that away, it’s a horrible feeling. You can forgive and forget but can’t take it away.'

But Mark Wright defended Crissy and Willie, saying: 'You can understand why they thought like that.'

'I will never understand that because I would not react like that,' Antony snapped back.

'Not with people I have lived with for two weeks.'

However, Crissy didn't seem to hold a grudge against the pair and was kind enough to share her chocolate with the group.

'It’s your birthday please take a bar,' she told Dougie as she sang Happy Birthday to him.

'No hard feelings, we’ve got over it now,' she added as she also handed some to Antony and Mark.

Sharing her stash: Crissy decided to give the group some of her bars of chocolate after she received it from her loved ones


'It wasn’t what you did, it was the way we were treated, it’s not your fault,' she said and then hugged Dougie.

'All I’ll say is you make good spies.'

But the negative vibes in the camp hadn't completely disappeared as Antony continued his feud with Fatima.

Speaking to Dougie - following his attempt at the Bushtucker trial - the Coronation Street star was still talking about Willie's reaction that morning but soon managed to bring Fatima's mood into the equation.

'You get someone like Fatima who in this environment isn’t how she is normally but in here she is like empowering whilst also undercutting, it makes me furious,' he said.

'When you had trial doubts earlier she was straight in there under cutting you, she more than anyone was putting doubt in your mind.

'Undercutting': Antony was annoyed with Fatima as he felt she tried to persuade birthday boy Dougie not to do the trial


'All the time trying to tell you how to empower yourself, I can see it, he added. 'You did it so well done you but you nearly didn’t.'

However, Dougie wasn't bothered as he was celebrating turning 24 and received a surprise in the form of celebrity guest - Peter Andre.

The former I'm A Celebrity contestant spent the day in camp and certainly made an impact on them all.

The former pop star was on hand to give Mark some love advice after he met his ex-wife, Katie Price, during his time in the jungle.

As Mark was sat on his own contemplating his relationship with his ex-girlfriend, Lauren Goodger, Peter decided to join him.

Heart-to-heart: Peter was seen giving Mark some advice about his love life


'I don’t know how you feel, or felt, but I’m finding things hard with my ex, but I know it’s not right, Mark said to him.

'I loved Katie more than I loved anyone in my life, we had kids, a marriage and you never loose that,' he replied.

'Why can’t you find a different way?' he added referring to Lauren.

'We tried so many times,' said Mark and then asked Peter how he got over Katie.

'However I look at the situation, it’s not what I wanted,' he answered.

He then pointed to his heart and said: 'I think this has moved on, but this hasn’t,' and pointed to his head.

Private: The pair later moved away from the camp in order to have some privacy


'My heart has moved on, I’m ready to meet someone and all that but seriously, it’s your mind, it’s always there.'

'But I think my head has moved on as I want to be with someone else but my heart won’t move on,' said Mark.

'Then I’m sorry to say it, you’re gonna hate me but you’re not ready to.
'If she means something to you then there has got to be another way,' added Peter.

The pair then moved down to the creek to have some privacy and their conversation continued.

'For years, it’s gone on and on and I know it’s not right,' Mark then told him.
'Ten years is a long time,' remarked Peter.

Make it work: Peter told Mark that if he still has feelings in his heart then he should give it another go with Lauren Goodger


'If this experience has made you clearer in the mind, then great, but it sounds to me that there’s still something there, I can’t imagine her not doing anything to make it right.'

'I know she would,' finished Mark.

Later that day, Peter had a different kind of conversation with another male camp mate as he enjoyed some time in a hot tub.

The camp had been split into two teams for a general knowledge quiz, with Antony, Willie and Dougie playing against Mark, Fatima and Crissy.

The three men were triumphant and their prize was a hot tub party with Peter.

'My hot tub parties usually rock but I’m not in control of this one so anything could happen,' Peter said.

In hot water: Dougie, Antony and Willie won a hot tub session with Peter after they won the quiz in camp


As the group enjoyed some champagne and sang happy birthday to Dougie, Willie accidentally touched Peter’s penis with his toe.

'I didn’t expect at the end of the day to be sharing a hot tub with three guys and Willie has just touched my willy, he gave me a willy wonka,' the star commented.

Willie almost disappeared under the water until he found a high seat.
'I could swim around here if you lot get out!' he said.


Touchy feely: Willie accidentally touched Peter's penis with his toe while in the water


The group returned to the camp feeling a little bit tipsy, and then the group had to wave Peter goodbye.

Before leaving he said: 'Being here this evening changed everything - it brought back every beautiful memory, the sounds, the smell - it just reminded me how I felt in every way.'

'Hungry, in love, hungry, in love and hungry.

'These guys were given an extra meal tonight for me but I’m not going to eat it as it’s a bit of extra food for them will mean so much.'

Taking the Gaga look too far! Misha B steals the show for all the wrong reasons in an ill-advised jumpsuit at X Factor secret gig

By Sarah Bull


Taking the Gaga look a bit too far! Misha B misses the fashion mark at the X Factor secret gig in London


She was hailed as a dream to work with by the X Factor styling team thanks to the fact she was willing to experiment when it comes to fashion.

But tonight Misha B took her eccentric way of dressing a bit too far as she arrived for the X Factor secret gig wearing a bizarre black jumpsuit which did little to flatter her womanly curves.

The odd outfit featured a black corseted top, with attached hotpants and cut-out panels down the legs, filled in with black paisley-print material.

Final countdown: Misha joined fellow semi-finalists Marcus Collins, Amelia Lily and Little Mix at the gig


Misha teamed the all-in-one with a black suede jacket, which featured pointed shoulders, and a pair of platform trainers that would have looked out of place on one of the Spice Girls during their heyday.

The overall look proved unflattering on 19-year-old singer Misha, who will be fighting to keep her place on The X Factor on the show's semi-finals this weekend.

Mischa's direct competitor, Amelia Lily, also went all out for the performance at the Talk Talk Soho store in London, teaming a pair of animal-print leggings with glittery boots and a sheer black blouse.


Glamour girls: Little Mix went all out for the performance, held at the Talk Talk Soho store

Hoping for the best: Amelia Lily and Marcus will be hoping to make the final cut during the live shows this weekend


The duo - the last remaining two in Kelly's girls category - were joined by fellow semi-finalists Marcus Collins and Little Mix for the top-secret gig.

While Marcus went for a casual look in a black top and jeans, Little Mix looked glamorous as they posed for photographers at the event.

Jade decided to recycle her specially-created House of Holland for Pretty Polly personalised tights, which feature the letters of their band name scattered randomly across the black mesh, while Leigh-Anne opted to copy her bandmate in the legwear department.

Making their way to the stage: Little Mix went monochrome for the evening, with Jesy sporting a striped blouse while Kade donned a cute pair of black shorts and personalised tights


Meanwhile, blonde beauty Perrie donned a pair of black trousers, braces and white shirt, while Jesy also went for a monochrome look in a striped black and white blouse with shiny black trousers.

The remaining four acts will no doubt be working as hard as they can in a bid to stay in the competition during this weekend's live shows.

It has been suggested that the final four have been given the opportunity to choose their own songs for the semi-finals, allowing them the chance to perform to the very best of their abilities.

But Misha said she thinks she will be going home this weekend, because the public will have been influenced by reports that she was bullying other contestants earlier this month.

She explained in a recent interview: 'Two Sundays ago I was ­preparing to go home. I said to the guys goodbye, I said to ­everyone (the staff) goodbye and thanks for now.

'That was it, I’m going home. But when my name was called it was amazing, absolutely amazing, mind-blowing.

'My name was called out first and I was in a state of shock for the rest of the day.
I’m grateful for that ­experience though, and I know what to expect in the future. It will help me develop.'
