Angel Of The North - Cheryl Cole

Cheryl Cole found fame through the talent show "PopStars The Rivals" since then the nation has fallen for the geordie's charm and shes become a household name in the UK. Mrs Cole is a regular in the fashion weeklies and has even graced the cover of Vogue - not bad for a girl from Newcastle, eh!

One of my favourite dresses which Cheryl donned on The X Factor in 2008 was a coral Matthew Williamson design. I adore the colour and think it really compliments her skintone. The embelishments on the dress makes Cheryl appear more curvy and really brings your focus in on her tiny waist!

As i said this is one of my favourite outfits that Cheryl has worn and when i saw it i immediately started looking for familiar items. Some of you may know that i work in River Island, well when i was doing the delivery one morning i discovered a great dupe for the dress, it's an orange skirt with gold sequins down the front angling diagnolly similar to the embelishment on the MW dress. Sorry for the super crap picture and i had to crop my face out - i had a "i've had one too many sambuca face!" :P

As you can see the skirt is quite similar, i think the skirt may be in the River Island sale at the moment, so get down there pronto if your after one! I decided to team it with a plain white t-shirt, a brown thing waistbelt with
and a small heart necklace.

With the X Factor starting again later this month the focus will be as much on Cheryls style as it is on the contestants.
