Mollie King has quite rightly got a spring in her step. First she gets linked with Prince Harry (we're totally seeing that working), and now she's been announced the new face of luxury brand Aspinal of London. It's safe to say that the Saturday(s) girl is having a bit of a moment.
Not just that, but the gorgeous bag she's carrying (and that we're coveting) has been names after her. Sorry Alexa, maybe next time Lana, THIS is the bag we've got our eyes on now. The Mollie bag will set you back a cool £450, but oooh it's pretty. We're liking the whole 'carrying a tote as a clutch' thing as well.
It comes in a tan (definitely our favourite, black and something called 'smooth cappuccino' which loosely translated appears to mean 'light beige'. Whatever you want to call the colour, these are very pretty bags and Mollie is a brave choice for the brand - it looks like they're going in a much younger direction and attempting to shift away from their Sloane-y roots.
The fashion world headed to the capital for one of the biggest events in the calendar last night, the British Fashion Awards. And Victoria Beckham was so overwhelmed by the whole thing that she cried three times.
Victoria did a Gwyneth Paltrow after she fought off (not literally although that would have given Kate Moss' net dress five minutes peace) Stella McCartney, Burberry and YSL director, Tom Ford to win Designer Brand of the Year.
Accepting her award from good friend Marc Jacobs, Victoria broke down and said: "I'm so sorry for crying. I'm being so rubbish."
She then paid tribute to husband, David Beckham adding: "I would like to thank the British fashion industry for your support. I'd like to thank my team...my parents, my kids, my husband. Without David I wouldn't have the courage to do what I'm doing."
In the audience, Alexa Chung (who won the British Style Award again), David Gandy, Kelly Brook, Daphne Guinness, Kate Hudson, Abbey Clancy and newly-crowned Designer of the Year, Alexander McQueen's Sarah Burton applauded the ex-Spice Girl turned eponymous designer who once admitted that she struggled to be taken seriously by the fashion world.

H&M's designer collaborations are always highly sought after (and fought over), and shoppers were out in their droves to pick up something from H&M x Versace this morning!
Catwalk Queen made sure they were there to catch all the goings on, and get a few snaps of the crowds (they met a guy who had been waiting in line for 12 hours) and, most excitingly, the clothes.
As for buying them, well I'd tell you to click here to go to the Versace for H&M website, but it's been down since the launch this morning!

Yep, you read that right. The don of luxury - and Chanel's creative director - who once reportedly said about Chanel: "We have no budget, we do what we want", is launching a collection that starts at just £50!
Called simply 'Karl', the range will hit Net-a-Porter in January 2012. And, we hear it's packed with everything you'd expect - biker jackets, silver jeans, LBD's and, of course, fingerless gloves.
We. Cannot. Wait!
Exciting news...
Things have been busier than ever behind the scenes here at Osoblog lately, and we can now tell you that there are big changes afoot: our parent company Aigua Media is about to give all of its sites a dramatic makeover, and we plan to mark the occasion in suitably glamorous style.
Having worked our socks off to get the launch under way, the team here at Aigua is looking forward to letting our hair down for one night only at an exclusive venue in Central London. That night is Wednesday 2nd November, and we'd like one reader to take on the task of covering the event for us: in other words acting as our official guest blogger for the night - taking advantage of our hospitality for the night while mingling with our VIP guests.
This is a fabulous opportunity for anyone who wants to make it big in the dynamic world of fashion blogging, and in return we'll offer you exclusive coverage of our industry event. No other bloggers are being invited (not even those who've crossed the boundary into full-on media stardom), so you'll be the only one to get the scoop.

The biggest trend we've spotted this week has been that a fair few celebrities have been out and about in nude shades! Blush pink, sandy beige and cream - it's definitely been the colour of the week. Check out the gallery by clicking on the image below to see who's been going nude this week!

Sorry it's not more fun, but it seems like celebrities really are just like us: just trying to stick to their new year's resolution to be fitter.
So they've all been down the gym. A lot. That's all they've done in fact.
It's been a slow week frankly.
Anyway, Reese Witherspoon, Nicole Richie, Khloe Kardashian and a newly freed Lindsay Lohan were all papped in their best workout gear, which for three of them included a Hermes Birkin bag. Check out their gym style in the gallery below.
