Inside Soap Awards 2009

soapawards

Last week saw the launch party of the 15th Annual Inside Soap Awards where this years nominees were announced. Stars were out in force from all your favourite soaps, Coronation Street, Eastenders, Emmerdale and Hollyoaks!

Corrie star Brooke Vincent, who plays Sophie Webster, was working our very own Miso Frill Skirt Dress. This brand new Miso dress is bang on trend this year with nude tones and satin scallop frills adding glamour to this frock. This dress is set to be a huge hit and at just £24.99 you’ll need to get yours quickly before it’s too late!

Like Brooke, team with an oversized clutch and bangles galore for night time glitz perfection.

Lets not forget Brooke’s other accessory – Hollyoaks hunk Stephen Beard aka Archie Carpenter. Although you can’t buy him online, you can recreate his casual style from Crafted.

You’ll have to wait until September to find out the winners and who will grab the highest accolade of Best Soap! But in the meantime let us know who your ultimate soap star is below…

The Hills – Lauren’s Final Farewell!

HILLS

If like us you’re fans of The Hills you’ll know that it was the end of an era on Sunday as in the final episode of the series we bid farewell to star of the show, Lauren Conrad.

Since leaving the show Lauren has been busily promoting her first book ‘L.A. Candy’ and recent reports suggest she will be resurrecting her fashion line reflecting the star’s ‘pure Californian style’ – we can’t wait!

The final episode also saw Heidi and Spencer, affectionately known as Speidi, officially tie the knot in a lavish ceremony in front of 200 guests! Heidi wore a $19,000 dress with close to $1.2 million worth of jewellery – don’t get us wrong we love a bit of bling but sometimes less can be more!

Replacing Lauren is her Laguna Beach rival, Kristin Cavallari, if you’ve followed Lauren since her Laguna days you’ll know the history behind these two! Kristin made an entrance at Speidi’s wedding squeezing herself next to Audrina’s ex-boyfriend Justin Bobby and scrambling to the front to secure catching Heidi’s bouquet!

As Kristin is set to stir up trouble in the new season who do you think is the real star of the show?
