Will Cheryl get the 'Cole' shoulder?

What on earth am I talking about?

Yesterday I heard reports that Cheryl Cole is apparently set to now turn her career focus towards bringing out her own fashion range....

Oh please. Give me a break!

I'm sorry, but what part of her transition from Chav, to Girls Aloud, followed by 'stylish' pop icon/X Factor judge/ face of a haircare brand included her aquiring any fashion design skills?

Cheryl chav.jpgFor those of you who don't know, there is such a thing as a fashion undergraduate degree, as well as a postgraduate degree, as well as hours and hours of practise, which Mrs Cole's current work schedule would most certainly not allow.... and even then it's difficult to create a successful range unless you're already known.

Oh no wait, that's it. Our Cheryl is already a massive household name, so naturally that is her selling point. So if she designed a range of rubber bands and called them clothes, you'd buy them right?

Come on sweetheart. You are a good celebrity and I like you, I really do - you're great for ratings, you're beautiful, most of the nation adores you already. But despite the general opinion that you are a style icon already, that is exactly what you are not. Your personal stylist may well be, after all, she's the one who got you from Chavtastic to perfectly groomed, but you are not an icon - just a successful product of the music and media industry. You look good yes, but chances are that had you not gone onto that fateful popstars reality TV contest, you would still be in your oh so flattering jogging bottoms.

Please, don't try and imitate Victoria Beckham (for to her credit, at least she always naturally did look stylish in even her Spice days by her own doing). Leave the designing to those hard working fashion darlings who have actually and literally put their life and soul into fashion and their creations.
