Girls Aloud seem to be on a bit of a roll at the moment. No sooner have we gotten used to the five-some being back together again, but group members Cheryl, Kimberley, Nicola, Nadine and Sarah have brought out yet another music video for their second single, Beautiful Cause You Love Me.
Unlike their previous release which launched their 10 year reunion with a bang, this video takes an all natural approach pushing glitz and glam to one side in favour of nearly naked outfits, barely there make up and bath time singing. Yes, they've gone down that route. Girls Aloud, who I think are championing girl groups in all their glory at the moment as no-one else is, can't be faulted for their predictable yet stylish ventures into the music video world. What do you think?
Fashion wise there's not too much to say, apart from this time, it seems less is more.
If you want to see the five gorgeous gals in glowing flawless make up, sultry hair and half-dressed attire (who wouldn't?), it's well worth a look above.

Girls Aloud
This week saw newly re-formed fivesome, Girls Aloud, perform at the Royal Variety Performance for none other than her majesty the queen. For the prestigious occasion, Cheryl, Nicola, Sarah, Kimberley and Nadine all wore matching black and gold fishtail gowns adding some high profile glamour to the proceedings. Check out their look below which the girls have been sharing around between their twitter accounts...
What do you make of their opulent and super-glam approach to Autumn / Winter's brocade trend? The glittering gowns features strapless sweetheart neckline, all glitter bodice with gold brocade and kick out fishtail bottom in black tulle. They completed the look with cascading hollywood curls and smokey sultry eyes. The girls were in good company on stage as One Direction, Kylie Minogue and Katherine Jenkins all took to perform for the queen.
If you're keen on their look, why not shop their look with our high street picks below?
The countdown has been on their website all week causing a stir amongst fans and press alike, but the day has finally arrived. Girls Aloud have made their big announcement about re-joining for a tour and brand new album. The press conference took place in London today presented by Nick Grimshaw where the girl group were quizzed about their reunion.
But let's get to the juicy stuff, what were the girls wearing? Well a real mixture of things really. They were all looking super glam as always, but who's is your favourite look? We're shopped some of their items and some high street alternatives below so you can copy your favourite. Check out their new music video for their single Something New below too - it's well worth a look.
We showed you the teaser of the music video for Nicola Roberts second single just yesterday, and suddenly the entire thing is here!
The video is very electro-pop-y, with Nic dancing around in that dress that is actually a top and showing off an incredibly high vocal range! Lots of fun, perfect for a Friday afternoon of procrastination! Watch it above!
Well, Cheryl Cole's career might be disintergrating, and Nadine Coyle may be single again, but at least Nicola Roberts seems to be on the up.
The singer has just released a preview of the video for her upcoming debut single Beat Of My Drum where she seems to be taking a few cues from Jessie J... and we're not sure it suits her.
So the rumours weren't true: Nadine Coyle doesn't hate her band members and Cheryl Cole doesn't think she's too good for them.
Or they are true, but they just can't get out of their contract.
Either way, Girls Aloud have confirmed they'll be back with a brand new album to coincide with their 10th anniversary.
"The girls are still getting on great, they speak all the time, and that includes Cheryl and Nadine with the other girls," said their managerHilary Shaw. "Cheryl is keen to get back with the girls and is planning something which could be a one-off or some gigs."
We've all been mega busy this London Fashion Week zipping around all the shows and getting all the best fashion news and celebrity sightings up as quickly as possible.
We spotted Alexa Chung and Nicola Roberts front row at the Topshop Unique show - Alexa looking as cool as usual in a Breton top and trench, and the tiniest bag we've ever seen, and Nicola wearing a brown dress with straight hair.
Check after the cut for the rest of our celeb encounters!
Girls Aloud's Sarah Harding has revealed that she has started to plan her wedding to Tom Crane (remember he proposed on New Year's Day) - and she's realised that it's quite a daunting task.
I would so just get a wedding planner if I were her.
"I realise how much work goes into a traditional wedding," she told OK magazine. "There's so much to think about. It's stressful!"
And obviously, she's been thinking about the dress. Because that's the most important thing. I mean after the commit - Oh, who I am kidding.
Sarah said, "I think I'd like something fitted then I'd change into another dress afterwards. Sometimes you have to suffer for fashion, and I'd say Cheryl suffered on her wedding day in that tight dress."
Kimberley Walsh has been the most inactive member of Girls Aloud during their hiatus (well unless you count that Suck My Pop show, but who does really) but she's just snagged a deal to be the face (and legs) of Puma's new BodyTrain fitness and toning trainers!
Nice timing too, because we were just thinking how slim she was looking!
Kimberley has previously talked about how she has to try hard to stay in shape, saying "I'm like any other normal girl. I have ups and downs; I can focus and be healthy for a few weeks and then I'll have a bad week."
"If I ate what the rest of the girls ate I'd be three times the size, but at the same time, I'm not vain enough to starve myself."
Also, we're loving the 50's style promo shots. You can get a pair of the Bodytrain trainers that Kimberley is wearing above at Next here for £75!
So the rumours weren't true: Nadine Coyle doesn't hate her band members and Cheryl Cole doesn't think she's too good for them.
