MIC’s Georgia Toffolo got engaged in a £350 red dress – and I’ve found a version that’s £200 less

Georgia “Toffolo” Toffolo, who announced her engagement to BrewDog founder James Watt on Instagram, deserves congratulations. The former Made in Chelsea actress and former husband Toff attended the occasion’s celebrations in a red maxi dress.

Toff’s stunning sheer dress (she is in Greece, after all) hails from Worme, with the Chiffon Collum Drape Maxi Gown setting you back £350 if you want to copy her exact look. However, I found a fantastic alternative from COS that will save you more than £200 if you want to be inspired by Toff’s daring outfit but don’t want to spend a lot of money.

The £115 Pleated Racer-Neck Maxi Dress is opaque enough to wear it even when you’re not on vacation, but it has a very similar design and silhouette to Toff’s see-through dress. The COS dress is expertly knit from a cotton blend and comes in a matching scarlet red color.

If red isn’t your thing, you can also purchase a black COS maxi dress. It’s available in sizes XS to large.

With a racer neckline and sleeveless design, COS’ maxi dress also has a silhouette that’s comparable to Toff’s. It flares out at the bottom into box pleats, which makes it ideal for both formal and casual events, as opposed to a straight column shape.

The sheerness of the dress comes into play in the bottom panels, with even-toned, contrast-toned sheer panels that allow for the right amount of skin for any occasion. You could style it for autumn with a pair of knee-high boots, a cozy wool pea coat, or a faux fur jacket to keep you warm all the way through the seasons, but it would also look gorgeous as a holiday dress.

For something a little more season-appropriate, Next’s Scarlet Red Long Sleeve Lace Maxi Dress, £59, is made from a vibrant red lace material with hints of sheerness throughout. It has long sleeves, which makes it more appropriate for the chilly British climate than Toff’s dress and the COS version.

It is comfortable and simple to walk in thanks to its figure-hugging fit and split side hems. It would look stunning when paired with metallic heels and some sparkly jewelry for a Christmas party.

Sizes 6 to 26 are available for the Next dress, which also comes in khaki green, black, or scarlet red.

MAFS UK star Polly slams vile bodyshamers after Adam buys her lingerie on show

Polly, the star of Married At First Sight, has criticised bodyshamers who made remarks after Adam purchased her lingerie for the series.

The actress has lost weight since leaving the program, but she was disgusted by the offensive comments made on social media. She posted a stunning mirror selfie wearing a blue lingerie set encouraging trolls to “be ashamed of themselves.” In response to the trolls, she raised her middle finger in response.

She captioned the post: “I’ve had a lot of positive comments about my weight loss (and many other positives) since the show has aired. But after watching last night’s episode, my God, I am absolutely horrified. The general public told me I’ve been insecure with myself for weeks, but lo and behold, you’re making me feel like I’ve never been. One of the worst things you can do is body shaming and making someone feel insecure who is already experiencing stress (no matter how they look now).

When you body shame someone online, others are paying attention. a friend who struggles to lose weight as a child, or a member of a younger family who has unrealistic body issues. Body shaming a person in the name of advising them to be a certain way or to make fun of someone’s size, is a form of sarcasm, and mentally hurtful. None of you are aware that I lost weight for my own reasons. Although body shaming causes horrendous extremes that I hope never to occur, I can assure you that it hasn’t helped with how I feel about myself despite losing so much weight.

The star continued:” Being skinny is ok. Not being skinny is ok. Having curves are ok. Not having curves is ok. It’s inappropriate to berate someone for their body. One of the most abhorrent things you can do to someone is absolutely doing it. And it’s even worse to do it online. You should all be so ashamed of yourselves.

“The next time someone body shames anyone, just remember you’re an AWFUL human being. Congratulations on making a young girl feel like she’s been s**t all over again, [kissy face emoji] Also, please stop asking how I lost weight because this is a question I find to be very personal and I’m sick of repeating it. Set is @annsummers – thanks hubby”.

In the most recent episode of the Channel 4 TV series, her husband Adam bought her lingerie. Since being matched, their relationship has fluctuated greatly, with Adam admitting that she wasn’t his type. However, as the weeks progressed, they began to gradually become closer. Polly recently revealed that she has lost about two stone since March of this year and has been working out.

Sophie Turner reflects on ‘beautiful relationship’ with Joe Jonas as she talks ‘hard’ divorce

Sophie Turner has discussed the “beautiful relationship” she shared with her ex-husband, Joe Jonas, before their shock split.

The 28-year-old Game of Thrones star was married to the 35-year-old Jonas Brothers singer in 2019, and together, they welcomed daughters Willa and Delphine in 2020 and 2022 respectively. When the couple announced their marriage was over last year and their divorce was finalized in September of this year, the couple’s fans were shocked.

Sophie and Joe regularly shared photos of themselves looking loved up together while they were together, which delighted their fans. And the British actress even appeared in a music video for the Jonas brothers – alongside Joe’s brothers Nick, 32, and Kevin, 36, and their respective wives Priyanka Chopra, 42, and Danielle Deleasa, 38.

Sophie now has a second look at her marriage to Joe, says she remembers it fondly, and admits it’s “incredibly sad” that it all came apart. She also expressed her hope for her two daughters’ futures.

Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar, Sophie said: “I’m going through a legal process right now where I can’t really say much, but it was incredibly sad. We had a beautiful relationship, and it was hard”.

The TV host continued, “I hope my daughters will find her to be a successful provider for them.” She continued, “I want them to see that I have a social life, enjoy my job, and succeed in my relationships and career.” I want them to see a hard-working mum. I’ll come back and say, ‘ This is why Mummy was away – it’s because she’s doing this for you, so Father Christmas can come with a big bundle of presents'”.

Her most recent interview came shortly after she claimed to have felt “shame” about being a mother. She told the Sunday Times Culture magazine last month: “There’s so much shame that comes with motherhood. You go to work, you’re shamed. If you don’t go to work, you’re shamed”.

Sophie, who recently played a con artist in the hit ITV crime drama Joan, claimed that putting her self-care into work helped her survive her divorce. She said: “Joan changed me quite a lot. There is a lot of will and ambition that results from total desperation. When I had to be ambitious and have such strong will and combat the forces, the series came about. She gave me a lot of strength”.

Despite the collapse in her marriage, Sophie has not given up on love. Since then, she has begun a relationship with businessman Peregrine “Perry” Pearson, who is the company’s director and has a reportedly worth of £224 million. Sophie celebrated his birthday this month by posting a collection of photos of them together on Instagram, captioned “Happy Birthday my angel pie, 30, flirty and thriving.”

Molly-Mae and Rochelle Humes were spotted in this £1k brown suede trench – shop the £50 alternative

A suede jacket has become a wardrobe staple for the fall. We can count ourselves a fan, regardless of whether you prefer a trucker style trench coat that is cropped or a longer trench coat. It’s not surprising that Molly-Mae Hague and Rochelle Humes have enjoyed wearing Ducie’s brown suede Corrin trench coat so much.

But at £1070 it’s definitely a splurge. Thankfully, we found an alternative that’s under £50 thanks to Boohoo, and it’s perfect for nailing the celebs ‘ style on a budget. The Vintage Look Suede Trench Coat is currently discounted 25%, saving it from £65 to £48.75, and it is still available in all sizes.

Louise Thompson, a Made in Chelsea star, ravages about her chic knee-high boots, which are ideal for big calves.

The Boohoo suede trench coat is the ideal fall-appropriate item, available in 8 to 16 sizes. You know you’ll be able to wear it year after year for almost any occasion despite the fact that it’s in trend right now. However, its classic silhouette and chocolate brown color make it a timeless addition to your wardrobe.

The Boohoo version is, of course, made from faux suede unlike the Ducie one, which is real suede-finished leather. However, it still has a distinctly luxe-looking edge, and the faux suede material is what gives it its budget-friendly price tag.

It has a classic shape, with a lapel collar and three-button fastening down the front. Additionally, it has a boxy, oversized silhouette that’s ideal for layering everything from slinky, knitwear to boxy, mini dresses.

Its short length and ability to show off your knee-high boots, another essential for autumn, make it great for keeping you warm while wearing it with mini skirts and dresses. Its slimmed details and brushed finish make it appear much more expensive than its low-priced equivalent, and it has two crucial side pockets that are ideal for keeping your belongings close at hand or in your pocket warm.

The Vintage Suede Look Trench Coat is currently completely sold out in all sizes, despite Boohoo also providing a gorgeous alternative that appeared almost identical to the celeb-loved Ducie coat. It had shoulder flaps, waist belt, and similar chocolate color to the original trench coat, which was reduced from £70 to £52.

If you want almost exactly the same look as Molly-Mae and Rochelle, it may be worth hanging on to see if it’s restocked, however the other Boohoo suede trench makes a gorgeous alternative that’s classy and timeless.

Other options include Anthology’s Elevated Trench Coat, £98, which has the iconic trench coat shape and design, and comes in a gorgeous chocolate brown colour. Although it won’t be suede, it still needs less maintenance to keep it looking and looking brand-new.

Saoirse Ronan reveals private conversation with Paul Mescal after Graham Norton shutdown

After her remarks on The Graham Norton Show went viral, Saoirse Ronan admitted to having private conversations with her “dear friend” Paul Mescal regarding women’s safety.

Following her appearance on the show, the Hollywood star commented on gender-based violence while sat in a couch containing Paul, Denzel Washington, and Eddie Redmayne, earning praise from fans on social media.

Saoirse acknowledged that she and Graham are close friends and that the subject of Graham’s show is not something they have never discussed in private with Ryan Tubridy on Virgin Radio UK. She continued, “Paul is one of my dear friends, and I’ve already had those kinds of conversations with him,” adding, “He fully understands that.”

However, I believe that there was a moment like that on a program like Graham Norton, which is available on national television and even internationally, that it seemed to have had an audience that seemed to have really grown, which I think is amazing.

She described the response as “astonishing” (Getty Images for Academy Museum).

“It’s opening a conversation and again, hopefully it’s allowing more and more women to just be like, well, yeah, actually, let’s talk about our experience”. Saoirse also acknowledged that she had anticipated a “more women to speak out” in light of her comments.

She said: “The reaction has been wild. It’s definitely not something that I had expected, and I didn’t necessarily set out to sort of make a splash. However, I do believe there is a profound truth to be about the society we are currently in and how openly women are to men.

” So many men and women that I know from all over the world have gotten in touch with me about this one comment, which is, again, I would urge people, please, please, please to watch this in context. Please watch the whole interview or watch at least that part of the conversation, because it really wasn’t about… the boys weren’t sort of like debunking anything that I was saying.

The guest conversation became popular (PA).

“But at the same time, it felt very similar to what it felt when I was having dinner with a group of my friends, and I’ll always remember that this is a completely normal experience for us.”

Eddie revealed in the interview that he had been taught how to use a phone to retaliate against an attack while training for The Day of the Jackal. Amused by the concept, Paul, 28, replied: “Who is actually going to think about that? I’m not going to go “phone,” as he mimicked taking a phone out of his pocket to film if someone actually attacked me. Graham, 61, laughed at the idea and quipped: “Can you hold on a second”? Eddie added: “That’s a very good point”.

As the panel were shocked into silence before agreeing with her, Saoirse then brought up the harsh realities that women must deal with. She then said, “That’s what girls have to think about all the time. She then turned to the audience and said: “Am I right, ladies”? as they praised her.

Brooklyn Beckham ‘wants to prove people wrong’ as he hits back at ‘nepo baby’ criticism

Being called a ” nepo baby” makes him work harder and “prove people wrong,” according to Brooke Beckham.

One of the many celebrity children criticized for being a ” nepo baby,” a term used to describe people who may have had opportunities in a certain field (such as acting or singing) as a result of their familial connections, is the 25-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham.

Brooklyn has a long history of passions, with the chef starting out as a photographer before becoming interested in cooking. Fans’ reactions to his cooking videos, which included showing how to make sausage sandwiches and pasta with store-bought sauce, weren’t without criticism.

In a new interview with Grazia, Brooklyn discussed being a ‘ nepo baby’, revealing: “Obviously I am one. But I couldn’t help how I was born, at all”. He continued: “There’s always going to be people that say rubbish. But as long as you do something that makes you happy and you’re kind to people, that’s all that matters.

” I’m always gonna get it, no matter what I do. And I’m fine with that. It makes me work harder, because I’m like, I’m gonna prove these people wrong. “With his new passion for cooking, it’s no surprise Brooklyn launched his very own range of hot sauces called Cloud23 earlier this autumn.

His famous wife, Nicola Peltz, was hugely supportive as he launched the brand. She said:” I can’t believe today is the day. You baby, I’m so proud of you. Watching you bring Cloud23 to life has been so special for me to witness. You put a lot of effort into this, and I’m so happy people finally try it.

Brooklyn’s mother, Victoria, wrote on social media after his launch event:” So so proud of you @brooklynpeltzbeckham for making @cloud23 a dream come true!! You’ve put so much of yourself into this… Congratulations on your amazing @wholefoodsuk launch, I am officially obsessed! Kisses. “

He received a bad rap earlier this year for sharing a flying Dutchman burger tutorial with onions instead of buns. While some of the former aspiring photographer’s fans had positive things to say in the comments section of Brooklyn’s most recent Instagram tutorial, one of whom called him an “incredible chef” and that other former aspiring photographer had been hating him ever since he started his career.

You melt a burger and chips, they say. this guy needs a hobby, “one Instagram user scorned in the comments, with another telling the former wannabe footballer:” You just made burger and chips]laughing face emoji]. “
