TRASPARENZE MAVLA SOCKS
These might just be the most powerful and explosive items in the new Trasparenze collection, especially considering its small size and form factor. The bright, sugary pink is a dynamite choice for those who want something more eye catching and attractive than subtle or subdued. If you have a few fun skirts or colourful capri pants you want to accent this summer, then Malva is the thing you need.
Trasparenze Malva Socks £5.99

HAIR & BEAUTY AT THE OSCARS
Emma Stone, who won the award for Best Actress In A Leading Role, wore her hair in side-swept Hollywood curls complemented by rose-red lipstick and shimmering eyeshadow.
Best Supporting Actress winner Viola Davis showed off a new short hairstyle on the red carpet, worn with a sweeping fringe, whilst nude lipstick and extra-long lashes made up her beauty look.
Alicia Vikander
Matt scarlet lips and a new auburn hair hue were the focal points of Emma Roberts's red-carpet look.
A jewelled hairband and bronze-toned make-up were the ideal accompaniments to Janelle Monáe's Elie Saab gown.
Michelle Williams let her ultra-short platinum crop do the talking, sticking to flattering rose tones and curled false lashes for her beauty look.
Naomie Harris wore her hair sleek and centre-parted, paired with a neutral-toned make-up look.
Opting for the full bombshell effect, Taraji P Henson offset a blow-dried bob with illuminated skin, metallic smoky eye make-up and magenta lipstick.
Charlize Theron wore her hair in a low ponytail with her fringe swept over to one side. Her make-up was comparatively pared-back, to let her dramatic diamond earrings do the talking.
Karlie Kloss wore her hair in loose, side-parted waves, whilst glowing skin and orange-red lips made up her beauty look.
Gold-toned eye make-up and pink lipstick offset Scarlett Johansson's short crop on the red carpet.

KATRINA
Making something that not only looks okay, but actually constructs a narrative with two patterns is a big challenge for most designers, but Oroblu is not most designers. With Katrina, they have proven their worth as a designer of leg wear by bringing together three distinct elements, a diamond mesh, floral motifs and a sheer fabric. The result is not just a map of differnet motifs, but a gestalt entity. Their is one story present here, with Katrina imitating a garden trellis, a rose bush that's taken it over, all of which is shrouded in a mist created by the sheer section of fabric. Separately they are pretty, but together you have a stunning pair of fashion tights.

DIANA'S FASHION STORY
It was 36 years ago today that Lady Diana Spencer stepped onto the world stage as a shy 19 year-old teenager, clinging to the arm of Prince Charles as they announced their engagement. For that momentous occasion - one that propelled her to become one of the most famous women in the world, almost overnight - Diana had popped to Harrods to pick up a cobalt blue skirt suit by the little-known British label Cojana, which co-ordinated with her sapphire and diamond engagement ring.
