Coming high on our list of movies we hope won't suck comes the biopic about fashion legend Coco Chanel.
Starring the gorgeous Audrey Tautou, who you may remember from her portrayal of Sophie Neveu from the film version of the Da Vinci Code.

SunSilk was the first haircare brand to collaborate with fashion designers on a range last year - and in 2008 they've brought a limited edition of three more well known Australian designers to the shelves.
Peter Morrissey, Collette Dinningan and Alice McCall are this year's star attractions to the Sunsilk brand.

If you're looking to play to the shoulder trend in 2008 but aren't a fan of the accentuated shoulder trend, why not take Gwyneth Paltrow's lead and wear the single-shouldered fashion trend instead?
Is not out yet (sorry to get you all excited), but Chanel are leading up to their cruise collection show with a few podcasts and in that vein here's the first release; an unsurprisingly simple yet elegant video.
If you can't wait for the show which is on May 15 head over to their site, and have your iPod ready for some Pre-Chanel show podcast love.
No Spring-Summer fashion week in Australia would be complete without a range of or two of swimwear. And for Rosemount Australian Fashion Week this week, Flamingo Sands filled that gap, teaming beachy flowing hair with sexy bikinis and the odd effortless kaftan.
