Prepare yourself for the biggest fashion and beauty event of the year…Birmingham’s NEC, Clothes Show Live.

I always make sure i attend the show every year if you have not been before here you will find amazing clothes, top range beauty products, models strutting there stuff on the catwalk and the ever so fabulous Gok Wan will be making an appearance!!!

This year the Clothes Show Live will be hosted by Hollyoaks beauty Roxanna McKee who will be dragging along half the cast of Hollyoaks and the likes of Fearne Cotton, George Lamb and Dave Berry will be there!

This is also a good place to be head hunted by model agencies as every year people will be out looking for up-coming models so if this is your dream to be walking the catwalk then dress your best and look gorgeous and hopefully next year you will be on the catwalk and not just looking around!

My all time favourite super model has to be the ever so beautiful Kate Moss! Kate Moss is everything a girl wants to be with her flawless looks, perfect figure and the wardrobe to die for!

I have been a huge fan of Kate’s for a long time and she has been an inspiration to others minus the shamed cocaine scandal.

So anyway lets get to the main topic, Kate Moss has once again hit the headlines for the wrong reasons this time for her quote saying “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” i mean give the girl a rest this has completely been blown out of proportion and the press have cleverly changed the meaning of the saying!

When interviewed and asked for a motto her reply was “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels” BUT have people forgotten about what was quickly added to that… “That’s one of them. You try and remember, but it never works.” Showing that Kate Moss does not agree with the term used and doesn’t care less about what she eat’s! Everyone knows that Kate has worked on the catwalk for years now and obviously this is the talk behind the scenes not meaning that she is a believer in it.

Girl’s look at pictures for thinspiration not take on board a quote that has been made so i think people should leave her alone and this motto is used on most anorexia and bulimia sites so why not get these sites permanently banned!

Surely people must agree with me on this one and do not think that Kate’s comments are irresponsible, if she agreed with the moto YES as what was followed by her opinion = BIG NO NO!!!

The big day is getting closer and i am sooo excited it is nearly Victoria’s Secrets catwalk!!! Not only do i love the fabulous show but there is a certain someone appearing flying the flag for Great Britain…welcome Rosie Huntington-Whiteley!!!

At 22 she is one lucky girl and will be alongside Marissa Miller and the rest of the greatest catwalk models.

I am really pleased for Rosie as it all seemed to be going a little downhill for her in 2008 after the press realised pictures of her as to what appeared to be drugs paraphernalia in her hand but then again she was around 18 when those pictures were taken and she has obviously matured since then. We all make mistakes hey!

Well done Rosie!!!

This is a topic that is always hitting headlines, “should size zero models me banned from the catwalk?”

Everyone has an opinion here and mine is no not at all! The models that stride the catwalk as size zero are usually naturally that slim and there height is extremely tall meaning they look in proportion. The thing is these models look amazing in the clothes and i can not image some of the clothes the models wear being modelled on a larger woman.

I would not say that the models on the catwalk are suffering from eating disorders, maybe the occasional few, but this is the choice these models have chosen and if they were to be banned from the catwalk i very much doubt they will start tucking into Big Mc Meals to put on the extra pounds as these models want to be thin!

As the campaigns continue to ban size zero from the catwalk i can not seeing top designers taking this on board and size zero will still be rocking the catwalk in years to come…

I love David Beckham and Victoria Beckham and found there Emporio Armani photo shoot pictures amazing. They are both stunning and made the Armani Men’s and Women’s underwear look rather sexy indeed!

So i was pretty to surprised to find out that Christiano Ronaldo and Megan Fox have been replaced to be the new face of the collection. Ok so they are both equally gorgeous, especially Megan Fox. I am sure Megan will rock the range to perfection but i am a little unsure on Christiano Ronaldo, he has a great figure but i don’t think he has what you can call model looks like David Beckham.

Well we will just have to wait and see the campaign starts Spring/Summer 2010 so keep your eyes peeled…

Everyone believes that to be a model it means drop-dead-gorgeous looks, 6ft + tall and a size zero figure but how wrong are you!!!

Is your dream to be a model but you do not need to tick all of the above? If so still fulfil your dreams but try modelling in different ways, you might have a stunning pair of hands, immaculate feet or stunning looks but only 5ft in height if that is the case then model your best features.

People will pay you good money to have your stunning face splashed across an advertisement that does not mean you have to be super skinny and tall as you are only modelling your face, the same goes for your teeth or your eyes.

You should always take into consideration that it is very rare in the world that we are born a catwalk model so flaunt your best bits and make the most of what you have been blessed with…
