When a brand gets such a cult celebrity following, it's safe to say it must be worth investing in for our own wardrobes. When we spotted all of these gorge celebs sporting Wildfox numbers over the past few months, we decided it was time to hunt them down and check out the brand.
I've always thought of Wildfox as one of those casual effortlessly cool brands that oozes a fashionable edge without really trying. They have some AMAZE pieces online at the moment which will be perfect come festival season teamed with a pair of denim cut offs and hard-feel accessories. You can get your hands on the celebrity buys spotted above on the likes of Cheryl Cole, Katy Perry and Emma Watson below...
Charlize Theron is one of Hollywood's most gorgeous and glamourous ladies and she's rocking this Gothic Dior gown at the Snow White and the Huntsman premiere. But she wasn't always the fairest of them all (nope, sorry, while there's a Snow White film in the cinema, the puns are going to keep coming).
Talking to The Sun, she revealed at that she didn't have teeth until she was 11! Awww, Charlize!
'I had these fangs because I had jaundice when I was a kid and I was put on so many antibiotics that my teeth rotted. They had to cut them out. So I never had milk teeth.'
Wowsers, she's certainly got a very fetching smile now, but she doesn't worry about playing the less glam roles in films. 'You know, girls don't wake up with lip gloss on. And I don't ever think about it as ugly versus pretty.'
That girl's got her head screwed on, hasn't she? Wise words indeed, Charlize.

The launch of Chloe Green's Topshop range had the reality TV stars out in full force last night. It was fake tans ahoy and the hairspray fumes may have been a fire hazard as both the cast from TOWIE and Chloe's own Made in Chelsea headed to Topshop for the shoe party.
Most of the guests actually turned up in their red-soled Louboutins (natch). Given that one of the unique selling points of Chloe's shoe collection is their green sole, this caused a little embarrassment, we're sure. Actually, we're not sure we like the green that Ms Green has gone for. We wanted something a little bolder - the mint green just seems a little... wishy washy to us. A red Louboutin heel is an accessory in itself - you'll need to be wearing something that works with mint green to wear these.
Still, with Kate Moss' 'support' (apparently 'she thought they were great, although she did say some of the shoes were too high'), the shelves will be empty almost as quickly as Rosie Fortescue's champagne glass.
What do you think? Will you be wearing Chloe Green's shoe range?

Made in Chelsea
Another Hollywood actress has hit out at the media for being too into their looks, this time it's Jessica Alba. She's been chatting to Marie Claire about how she felt she was 'objectified' because of how she looks, and how she was marketed by the Fox network while she was staring in Dark Angel.
Apparently Alba was portrayed as a 'tough action girl' when her show aired (she was just 19 at the time). Alba told Marie Claire 'Right away, everyone formed a strong opinion about me because of the way I was marketed. I wanted to be chic and elegant!'
Can Alba really start complain? It seemed to suit her at the time when she had all those award nominations coming in. And she was playing a tough action girl!
''I like to get positive attention. But if I have a choice between someone noticing in a negative way what I'm wearing and going, "What was she thinking?" or someone not noticing what I'm wearing, I would rather not make a statement at all.'
Oh Jess, love. The media isn't ever going to work like that. You can't get positive attention just because it's nicer than negative comments.
We happen to think you did a fine mix of chic and tough action girl, so don't complain too much, love.

Lily Cole is absolutely rocking this slinky black number, isn't she? She looked utterly show-stopping at the Snow White and the Huntsman premier last night. (We're also loving her short curls). It's not just any old dress, though. Think it looks familiar? It's actually a black version of Pippa Middleton's bridesmaid dress.
Yep, this is one right royal gown. It's just a little sexier in black, isn't it? Or if black isn't your thing, how about red?
Cameron Diaz also rocked a very similar dress even before the Royal wedding. She opted for sexy scarlet back in 2010 at the Golden Globes. This is the dress that keeps on giving.
Lily's version certainly continued the spooky theme of the event, but who wore it best? Was the original (and the dress that almost upstaged a princess) the fairest of them all? Did Cameron carry it off in red or is Lily's black best?
We don't often get treated to a picture of Cheryl Cole out and about, as lately she's been keeping her head down. So we were super pleased to see this treat of an outfit land in our inbox. How good does she look?! Cheryl was snapped in London here on her way to Radio 1 recently where she was appearing on Chris Moyle's morning show.
It's one thing for two people to accidentally wear the same thing, but three in the same show?! We get the feeling that the Made in Chelsea team are having a few cut backs and *gasp!* having to share wardrobes. How else can you explain that Millie, Victoria (hissss) and Louise have all worn this yellow blazer from Zara this series?
We could also explain it with the fact that it's really rather gorgeous. It's even been seen in the Osoyou office. Yellow is a very tricksy colour to wear, but for some reason it's a little easier when it's Neon. Even caramel-haired Millie can pull this off.
What's with all these rich people stealing our high street buys? The blazer is only £79.99, and it's warm enough to see you through this strange 'nippy even though it's sunny' weather phase.
We think Millie has the edge with this outfit, but that's probably because we're blinded by how extraordinarily stupid Louise is being be entertaining the idea of a relationship with Spencer.
Who do you think is wearing it best?

Kristen Stewart pulled it back from her frankly half hearted showing at the Met Ball last week on the red carpet of the World Premiere of her new movie Snow White and the Huntsman in London last night.
The Twilight star plays Snow White in the new film (alongside Charlize Theron and the delicious Chris Hemsworth), although sadly she wasn't sporting lips red as blood. Her skin was pretty snowy though...
Probably the most interesting part of her look was her hair: for someone who for a time didn't even bother washing her hair for an event, the chain-decorated bun was a vast improvement! Kristen paired the hairstyle with casually glamourous makeup: bare skin and just glossy lips made way for a metallic smokey eye, with tones of silver and grey to give her some drama while still keeping things fresh and youthful. Plus did you see her gown? Full-on makeup would have been Way Too Much we think...
Want to get Kristen's look? We've put together a kit with everything you'll need - shop it below!
Percy & Reed Texturising Spray, £14 Benefit BADgal Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil, £14 NARS Duo Eyeshadow in Paris, £24 Laura Mercier Lip Shine in Shy Pink, £14.50 Clinique High Definition Lashes, £16 Topshop Multi Chains Necklace, £25

It's just over a year since Kate Middleton and Prince William married and this Jenny Packham gown is going straight to the top of our list of 'favourite Kate dresses'. It's utterly sublime.
Her and Prince William were on the red carpet on Friday night for the Olympic gala Our Great Team Rises at the Royal Albert Hall in London. Celebrities turned up in their droves, but all eyes were on Kate in that teal gown.
She wore an intricate pleated updo and paired her dress with a matching clutch and diamond drop earrings. Nicholas Kirkwood will have something to say about her Jimmy Choos - she went out for dinner in them earlier in the week. How terrible.
If you're not convinced by just how special the Duchess of Cambridge's dress is, check out the lace back detailing.
Those buttons! It might have been a red carpet event, but some might say that this dress is a little too racy for the latest member of the royal family. There are no bra straps to be seen across that sexy lace back. Is Kate - gasp - braless? What would the Queen say?
If you like Kate's look, check out our picks below to recreate her style...
With BBC's The Voice on our screens every weekend, Jessie J's style has been the talk of the town lately. We absolutely love her new ombre hair do and she's been rocking Spring / Summer 2012's prints like no one else. Although she's known for her unique style, recently Jessie has been confessing that it's time to grow up, "I'm just growing up! I won't lie, when you're first bringing out music and you want people to notice, you probably overdo it, especially as a girl. But I started looking at photos and thinking, "Jess, it's too much - the outfits, the hair". I became a bit of a cartoon. I just wanted to tone it down" she added, "The Mystic Meg hair was my comfort blanket. But as you start seeing pictures of yourself at every angle you realise it's about taking risks if you want your style to evolve."
When it comes to her role on The Voice, Jessie seems to be quite passionate and determined to teach her acts that being in the music industry is far from easy, "I want to teach my acts that it's about sacrifice - it isn't easy. It's about staying in to avoid losing your voice shouting over music in clubs. It's about understanding you'll miss family events and won't be able to eat the cake you want on your birthday. You'll doubt yourself, lose your voice and people will tweet horrible things. But I'll be there for them."
That's a shame. We think the best bit about your birthday is eating cake. The above snap is taken from her shoot in Company magazine. Like her all pastel look? Shop it with our buys below.
