Whilst doing my weekly browse/shop in TopShop Oxford Street this evening, I spotted not one but two supermodels.

First I spotted – the even more beautiful without make-up – Anja Rubik. The stunning blonde Polish model stood out not just she is so damn beautiful, but because she is so tall and ultra thin.

The model was dressed casually in white jeans, a khaki jacket and ballerina pumps. She quietly browsed around the store, picking up various pieces, before heading to the changing rooms.

My chin nearly hit the floor when I then spotted Naomi Campbell in the store. I could not see if she had heels on over the rails of clothes, but she looked very tall, and I am taller than her at 5ft 11.

Her amazonian presence commanded your attention. Were Anja went unnoticed, you could not help but notice Naomi despite her wearing shades. She stormed around the store barking orders to whoever on her infamous Blackberry, and to the poor TopShop Style Adviser who had been assigned to look after her.

Everyone was staring at her.

Is her hairline is as bad as it looks in the photos? No worse. She obviously had no time to do her hair today.

The supermodel is in London to find out if she’ll be charged for her reportedly violent outburst over a lost bag on a British Airways flight in April.

TopShop is turning out to be quite the celebrity hotspot. In the past year I have spotted Ashlee Simpson and Jenna Jameson, Victoria Beckham, Kelis, June Sarpong, Denise Van Outen and many other UK celebrities

What did I buy?


Well after featuring the above jumpsuit in my jumpsuit trend post last week, I tried on this chiffon star jumpsuit, and was pleasantly surprised that it fitted perfectly.

Today sees the launch of another Kate Moss collection for TopShop. This time it is her Summer 2008 collection.

This is the model/designers 6th collection for the retailer. The collection consists of girlie dresses, waistcoats, tunics, kaftans and a jumpsuit that I will definitely be trying on.

The dresses range from £45 to £85, and the most expensive piece from the collection is the green embellished top which retails at £100.

You can view the new summer collection here.

It looks like TopShop have taken inspiration for their Floral Zip Jacket and skirt from Balenciaga’s Spring 2008 collection.

The jacket is very similar to the Balenciaga jacket, as they both have the structured puff sleeves, high neck and blue floral colour element.

The TopShop ensemble cost £100 in total, whereas the Balenciaga skirt alone cost £915.

I have tried the TopShop ensemble on and it looks really fantastic, although I am not sure if I purchased it where I would wear it. A Star Trek convention maybe?

Last Thursday whilst shopping in TopShop I spotted Ashlee Simpson shopping alongside me.

When I saw these pictures of Ashlee in her white Will Broome Zip Rabbit Tee, I knew she had brought the £25 top from TopShop.

The fun tee was created Will Broome who has a small capsule collection for TopShop which consists of manga-panda T-shirts and sloppy tunics.

Yesterday whilst doing my weekly browse/shop in TopShop with my sister, I was surprised to see Ashlee Simpson browsing very close to where we were.

She was being escorted around the store by TopShop’s style advisers, who were showing the singer their best pieces with what appeared to be a 7ft bodyguard.

It was raining in London yesterday, so she walked around to store with a scarf around her red locks.

I was even more surprised to see Jenna Jameson walking around the store in 7in heels and glasses.

She was almost unrecognisable in her glasses, but the 10ft bodyguard, platinum blonde hair, 2in mini skirt, Californian tan and huge lady lumps gave her away.

I wonder what Ashlee and Jenna said to each other in the VIP changing rooms?

The Olsen twins and Nicole Richie are huge fans of these two tone Chanel sunglasses from the Spring 2007 collection, as they can often be seen wearing them.

I don’t think the harsh contrast between the black lens and clear lens would suit me, but the Olsen’s and Nicole are aficionado’s when it comes to large sunglasses, so they know what works best for them.

TopShop have recently added a similar pair of these sunglasses to their range for summer. The large round sunglasses cost a mere £15, and come in a black and white frame.

What? A shy Paris Hilton?

Now there is a first.

Fresh from her globe-trotting adventures with Benji, Paris hit clubs of Hollywood on Saturday night.

She may have tried to hide her face, but she could not hide her dress. The multi-millionaire heiress purchased this Jersey Corsage Dress which only cost £35 from TopShop on her recent trip to London.

This beautiful dress has a double corsage detail on neck, and contrast band on waist.

Perfect for any night out, or it can be worn as a day dress.
