Lily Allen
Lily Allen arrives at Heathrow back from her Christmas holiday.
On first glance it looks as though Lily Allen could be wearing Chanel’s brand new 5143 Black on Red from the Chanel Passepoil Collection. Passepoil means outline, the inspiration behind this stunning juxtaposing collection which hones in on Chanel’s love of lightness and combining colour. The acute angular face redefines cute while the arms are lit up with striped rose red that creates an illusive ray of light and aura around the frame.
British bad girl Lily Allen was spotted holidaying on a luxury yacht on the coast of St Barth with her new silver haired boyfriend.
Reports say that the 23 year olds new beau is 45 year old English art gallery owner Jay Jopling, a friend of Lilly’s Dad.
Lilly previously said in an interview that ‘I think I like much older men. I hang out with much older people, I go for dinners at posh places and talk about art. I’m meeting more interesting people who tax my brain.’
Jay Jopling was previously married to art photographer Sam Taylor-Wood, a friend of Sir Elton John. The couple were known as the art worlds golden couple.
In other news, Lily’s still clearly fuming over Katy Perry’s comment about her weight. The Smile singer wrote on her Facebook page ‘I have Katy Perry’s number, someone did me a favour. I’m just waiting for her to open her mouth one more time then it hits Facebook.’
High school much?
