WAG’s Line Up

The WAG line up for the World Cup looks weak.

With two months remaining before the start of the World Cup, concerns are mounting that England may have to put forward the weakest WAG line-up for years.

There’s no denying that the loss of Cheryl Cole has been a devastating blow for the team this close to the tournament,’ said a source close to the WAG training camp, where several hopefuls have reportedly been strenuously trying out to replace Ms Cole. ‘We’re delighted to see Toni Poole back in the squad, but no-one really knows if she can go the whole 90 minutes, or if she’ll be substituted by another WAG.’

 ‘But there’s a growing sense of panic as the tournament grows closer that the team lacks that vital experience we need to see off stiff challenges from the French and Brazilian WAGS,’ said the source. ‘Melanie Slade has come on nicely since her debut in Germany four years ago, but she’s still some way behind Abi Clancy in her media and bikini exposure. Colleen Rooney probably has the most experience in the box, but let’s be honest, there’s a reason she’s the face of Asda.’

It should all run fairly smoothly as long as chief WAG, Victoria Beckham, doesn’t let the team down. In her bid to become pregnant fears have risen.

What colour will Coleen Rooney where to The Grand National? Place Your Bets!

Bookies have began placing bets on what colour WAG Coleen Rooney will wear at the Grand National.

Thousands of pounds of bets have already been placed on what colour Mrs. Rooney will wear for Ladies’ Day.

Wayne Rooney’s glamorous wife pulls on her designer glad rags each year for the biggest date in Liverpool’s racing and fashion calendar.

Bookies have taken notice and are taking bets on what shade of designer label Coleen, 24, who will also be attending tomorrow’s Grand National, will go for.

The colour galloping ahead with punters is the popular spring shade “nude”.

Totesport spokesman, George Primarolo, said: “What Coleen wears to the Ladies’ Day is talked about almost as much as the horses.

“We have received thousands of pounds worth of bets on what she will wear this year and are expecting more to flood in before she makes her grand entrance.

“Bets will be taken until 10am when the gates at Aintree open – though we’ll be keeping a close eye on the market in case anyone has had a sneak preview!

“At the moment, nude is the most popular choice at 5/4. However, there’s also been plenty on purple which is next in the market at 5/2.”

Last year, Coleen wore a flowing maxi dress to disguise her baby bump on Ladies’ Day and a knee length pink dress on the Saturday.

This year, she has worked hard to shed her baby weight following the birth of baby Kai Wayne just in time for the Grand National.

Carly Zucker and Joe Cole Taking Parenting In Their Stride

Joe Cole and Carly Zucker Cole are taking being new parents in their stride.

The Coles look as though they have had a few sleepless nights lately thanks to their new baby daughter.

The good natured couple were spotted taking their daughter for a walk near their West London home yesterday.

The Chelsea player took charge of the pram, while his WAG, who was dressed in black jeans and a tight leather jacket, enjoyed some help with baby duty as she walked alongside.

The casual stroll was a definitely change of pace for Joe, 28, who scored the Blues’ opening goal in their 2-1 win at Manchester United on Saturday to send his team top of the table.

Meanwhile, Carly, 25, has put her career on hold to focus on motherhood.

She gave birth on March 18 at the Portland Hospital in London, following a 16-hour labour.

The couple initially considered calling the child Scarlett, and told media sources that was defnetely her name, but then they had second thoughts after her arrival. They are yet to publicly reveal her name.

Carly, a former personal trainer, said it was her husband of five months who was desperate to start a family.

She revealed before the birth: ‘He’d been telling me he wanted us to have a baby together from about nine months into our relationship, but I was only 18 when we met and just out of college.

‘I wanted to live a bit myself first and have a career. And ideally, I really wanted us to be married before we started a family.’

Cheryl Cole – I am not sending secret messages to Ashley

Cheryl Cole insists that she is not sending messages to Ashley by wearing a skull ring.

After being photographed wearing a skull ring in replacement of her wedding ring Mrs Cole has denied accusations that she is sending messages to Ashley.

The X Factor judge spoke out after rumours began to circulate when she was snapped wearing a skull ring one month after her separation from the Chelsea footballer.

The `Fight For This Love’ singer was seen wearing the ring during filming for a chat show in Paris, according to the Daily Mail.

Cheryl has told her followers on Twitter that she is not using the paparazzi to send coded messages to Ashley.

She wrote on Twitter: “He does not need to see a picture of me moving the hair out of my face to explain anything.”

Cheryl added: “I find it crazy that people would think I use this as some sort of msg.

“Believe it or not Ashley is fully aware of any situation going on in our personal lives.”

Meanwhile, Cheryl’s X Factor colleague Louis Walsh has said that he hopes that the Coles can save their marriage.

He recently told Justin Lee Collins: Good Times: “I think she’s going to be fine. They might still be okay together.

“I hope they work it out and stay together. I thought they were a really good couple.”

Summer Colours

Stahl has produced its latest seasonal color forecast for Spring and Summer of 2010.

Offering us a helpful insight into what to expect on this seasons runways and in the the high street shops.

Stahl presents two themes, “Bringing the unexpected to everyday!” and “creating a sense of individuality!”

Stahl presents designers and consumers with a creative vista of appealing “appetizers” divided into six groups of color, each with an individual feel.

The first, for your eyes only, is partly inspired by the anticipated launch of a new Bond film. The exciting world of the modern young woman, a hint of exotic chic, Mexican sun, Acapulco and luxury hacienda living are reflected in exotic colors from dreamy sunsets, desert dust and the warmth glow of hacienda terracottas.

From a world of soft glowing colors the next plunges into the depths of Jungle Creation. The Amazonian rain forest and the richness of nature give rise to a chameleon-like range of brilliant warm saturated greens, blues browns and purples providing seductive interplay of shadow and light.

Just as the rain forest gives way to its rivers and the sea, so the next group of colors, Out of the Ordinary, is one of aquatic splendor. The colors, pinks, ochres and greens, give a kaleidoscope of translucent and bright lights that are reminders of a mystifying tropical underwater world with a feeling of glamor and airiness.

Victoria Beckham – Sex Timetable

Victoria Beckham and husband David Beckham set up a sex timetable in their battle to have a baby daughter.

After being blessed with three boys the Beckham’s are longing for a little girl, in order to achieve this they have set up a sex timetable.

Former Spice girl, Victoria, has set up a baby chart showing the best times to conceive. She kicked off the plan during the family’s Easter break in the Caribbean, reported thesun.co.uk.

David is currently recovering from an injured Achilles tendon in Los Angeles while Victoria is on a business trip in London and will return on Monday.

“David was relieved to get a break. He’s not complaining. But with all the strapping on his foot just getting about is hard enough, let alone bedroom gymnastics five times a day,” said a source.

“Vic is desperate to get pregnant and has a timetable for sex. He is exhausted and is just trying to get his energy back for Victoria’s return,” added the source. 

 “Vic is desperate to get pregnant and has a timetable for sex. From what David’s said it basically means he must produce the goods whenever it’s possible and be on continuous standby.”
She and David were going to wait until after the World Cup in June, when he will be supporting England teammates, to try for a sister to their three boys. But Victoria doesn’t want to wait and on orders from her doctor has already gone on a high-carb diet.

Summer 2010 Hair

The perfect hair for spring 2010 is super healthy and full of volume and body. For a bit of extra femininity and sweetness add waves and curls that are touchable. Make sure your highlights blend in more than they stand out to make your hair look like it has more depth and dimension. Overall, Summer 2010 hair  has a feeling of softness and universal appeal. 

Planning on jetting away this summer well for the perfect ‘holiday hair’ follow these simple steps.

Step 1 – Pull your hair back into a ponytail.

Step 2 – Twist the ponytail like a rope until the pony starts to buckle and loop upwards, but not too tight.

Step 3 – Use a clip or barrette and clip the loop in place at the back of your head. Try placing the clip towards the top of the loop so that the back looks almost like a chignon.

Step 4 – Fan the ends of your pony upward and place on top of your head. If your hair is super long, you can pin them at the top of your head if you want. If your hair is longer, you can curl the ends with an iron and place them with pins on top of your head.
The greasier the better with this look, so go a day or two unwashed when you try this, the chignon will hold much nicer. Your updo will hold longer as well, and if you want some nice morning after waves, sleep with your clip on for a casual wavy look the next morning.

If you are using this for a night out, a razor sharp side part will create just a smidge more elegance.

Get Ready For Summer

Throw those winter blacks and greys overboard and get ready to welcome Summer 2010.

This summer is all about two looks; the sailor inspired, nautical look and a lacy, beaded ethnic look.

Navys and whites, golds and pin stripped, crochet and broderie anglais, which ever look tickles your fancy, don’t leave it too late, because Summer is almost here.

If you can’t quite make up your mind between them then look out for garments that blend the two looks – striped t-shirts with embellished shoulders; sharp tailored culottes with lacy blouson tops; and playsuits that mix tailoring with soft, whimsical fabrics.

Quirky floral blazers tick all the summer style boxes, as would a Breton-striped top with jewel-encrusted shoulder detail.

Leggings are still making a fashion statement, as are killer heels and pixie boots. But the must-have shoes this summer are definitely a pair of ‘bandaged’ shoes or sandals with a wraparound cuff at the ankle.

Denim dresses and shirts are making a big statement and layered ruffles are everywhere – on shirts, dresses, jackets and even denim.

This summer also sees the return of the waistline as the smock top recedes and more fitted lines with waist detail start to emerge once again.
