Fashion fix: Salvatore Ferragamo pheasant feather bag from Sex and the City
15 hours ago
One day, there’s news about the clothes, the next it’s locations or plot, but one thing’s for sure there is one hungry appetite for all things Sex and the City 2. And as reports flood in revealing that Carrie (Sarah Jessica Parker) and co. are in Morocco, filming scenes for this hugely anticipated sequel, we turn our attention back to the movie that introduced cinema audiences to the four fearless fashionistas, 2008’s Sex and the City. It was easily the most style savvy film of last year and though Bonfire Night might be over, we’re sparking off our Monday with a fiery fashion firework from the movie, the Salvatore Ferragamo pheasant feather bag. »
Get the gear from Twilight

There is so much to talk about with Twilight, the adaptation of the Stephenie Meyer novel that has sunken its fangs into so many young readers. There is the literary angle – how does the film compare to the book? There are the stunning locations in Portland, Oregon (standing in for Forks, Washington) that play host to the romance between high school student Bella (Kristen Stewart) and her vampire paramour Edward (Robert Pattinson). There are the quirky, high school fashions that combine modern edginess with classical elegance and even cars from Bella’s beaten up old 1963 Chevrolet C-10 truck to Edward’s Volvo C30 (originally a 1953 Chevy and a Volvo S60R in the book respectively), though for techie fans there is only one subject – the cool gadgets on show. »

And adding statistical weight to our argument comes news that the Reading-born actress is worth £60 million (nearly $99.7 million) to the British economy according to a survey by the UK Film Council. Can’t argue with the facts. »
