Pixie Lott looked like the ultimate girly girl as she stepped out in a super-cute designer frock in London last night (17 February).

The former Strictly Come Dancing star is often on the guest list of many a stylish party and yesterday proved no exception. Rubbing shoulders with her fashionista friends, Pixie partied the night away at Dior's pop-up launch for its Diorama bag.

At the event, Pixie proved she is the perfect model for Dior's new 'it' bag as she tested out the new arm candy for the cameras.

Sporting an unusual take on your traditional LBD, the 24-year-old looked absolutely gorgeous wearing a very cute black dress, featuring a quilted heart design and puffball skirt.

She teamed her frock with a stylish pair of pointed courts, perfectly curled locks and plenty of bronzed eyeshadow on her peepers.

Beaut!

Arriving solo to the fashion launch, Pixie was without boyfriend Oliver Cheshire as he is currently taking to the catwalk in the Big Apple for New York Fashion Week.

Instead, the blonde beauty joined the likes of The Saturdays' Mollie King, model Daisy Lowe andMade In Chelsea's very own Mark Francis Vandelli.

When she's not enjoying a glass or two of champers at fashion launches, Pixie has been busy back in the studio working on new material.

Taking to Instagram last week, Pixie shared a snap of herself recording, teasing fans with the promise of two new tracks.

Alongside her photo, she said: "Loved studio today [two] new tunez #weloveit."

On seeing her post, fans were quick to tell Pixie how much they were looking forward to hearing new music.

One user said: "I can't even describe my excitement. I love you so much." While another commented: "Can't wait I love your voice. It's so unique."

Pixie's last album release was Platinum Pixie - a selection of her greatest hits as well as new songs 'Caravan of Love' and 'Break Up Song'.

Pixie Lott tried a bold make-up trend - floating eyeliner!

Published Friday, Feb 13 2015, 19:40 GMT  |  By Kathryn Lewsey  |  

Pixie Lott has been mixing things up with her make-up and yesterday evening (12 February), she showed off her latest experiment – floating eyeliner!

Nope, we're not kidding, this really is a thing! While we're used to slicking kohl along the bottom or top of our eyes, make-up artists have been getting creative by drawing a line just above the crease of the eyelid.

Quite a bold look, right?

This trend first kicked off in 2012, where it was spotted at both Erdem and Mary Katrantzou shows during London Fashion Week.

But Italian designer Giambattista Valli is bringing it back for this summer! MAC make-up artists at his preview spring/summer '15 show sent models down the runway in the unique look.

And keen to get ahead of the trend, Pixie has already decided to get involved!

The 'Mama Do' singer opted for a thick black line that she drew above her crease. Leaving her dramatic eyes as the main attention, she finished off her look with a few coats of mascara and nude pout.

We think we'll be sticking to our classic feline flicks rather than a floating line, but if you fancy having a go, it's probably worth getting a long-lasting eyeliner. A smudged or faded version of this would be a major faux pas!

A budge-free and purse-friendly option is Max Factor's ColourXpert Waterproof Liner (£6.99). Its applicator will give you a super precise line and the formula means this will last from day to night without a single smudge.

We can't wait to see what other celebs give this trend a try!

Pixie Lott rules the NTAs red carpet with gold leaf in her hair!

Pixie Lott literally sparkled at the National Television Awards this evening with a very special hairdo that included a sprinkling of gold leaf along her parting.

Is that the best way to make a red carpet entrance, or what?

The 'Lay Me Down' singer joined a whole host of gorgeous people at the NTAs on Wednesday evening (21 January), which were held at the O2 Arena in London and hosted by The X Factor's Dermot O'Leary.

We lost count of the number of ladies who wore floor-length black gowns (Gemma Collins, Chloe Sims, Mel B, Alesha Dixon, need we go on?!), but there was still a splash of colour to be seen on the red carpet – mainly in the form of red, Jessica Rabbit style dresses as worn by Rochelle Humes and TOWIE's Jessica Wright.

Pixie also kept to a monochrome theme, but went very 'Hollywood glamour' by accessorising her embellished Alberta Ferretti dress with sheer, elbow-length gloves and elegant, drop-pearl earrings.

It was her hair, however, that really caught out attention here in the Reveal office.

At first, we thought Pixie had kept both her hair and make-up simple, with nude eyes, barely-there lips and a sleek, side-parted do that was swept back behind her ears and left loose at the back.

But oh no, Lady Lott is far too sassy for that and instead, the Strictly Come Dancing star chose to add some real glitz to her 'do with some intricate gold leaf along her parting.

Now we've seen plenty of gold leaf manicures over the past year – yes, we're talking about youEllie Goulding, Bella Thorne and Kimberley Walsh – but gold leaf in the hair? Well, that's new... and we like it.

To copy her look at home, a sleek do is the way to wear it, so first get out the gel and slick your hair back into your chosen style – a low ponytail would also look pretty cool, btw.

Once you've styled your hair into place, add a touch of extra gel along your parting as this'll give the gold something to stick to, then use tweezers to carefully place tiny pieces of gold leaf (which you can buy on Amazon) along your parting.

You could also shake gold glitter along your parting for a slightly different look, but be warned, it won't be the easiest thing to shampoo out!
