Aside from that rather embarrassing feud between host, James Corden and British actor Patrick Stewart, there was only one thing (or lady, we should say) that people were talking about after the 2010 Glamour Woman of the Year Awards. And that lady, dear friends, was Cheryl Cole.

Scooping the top prize of ‘Woman of the Year’ at London’s Berkeley Square Gardens, Cole picked up her award in a bespoke, lingerie-inspired Julien Macdonald dress, embellished JImmy Choos and a glitzy silver clutch from VBH.

Not one to be out-shined, Cole opted for more sparkle with the Harlequin ring (see below) from luxury jeweller, Astley Clarke. Made with a pale green amethyst, white diamonds and 18ct yellow gold, this show-stopper of a cocktail ring added instant bling to Cole’s already stunning ensemble.

Bec Astley Clarke, founder and managing director of Astley Clarke, said: ‘We were delighted that Cheryl decided to wear Astley Clarke fine jewellery for the Glamour Woman of the Year Awards. Cheryl is always dressed impeccably and part of this look is the amazing way she enhances these outfits with beautiful jewellery. The Delacorte Collection is a beautiful celebration of old time glamour and this is our favourite cocktail ring.’

So, fancy splashing out on the Harlequin ring? It’ll cost a few pretty pennies: £2,395 from Astley Clarke.

Stars gathered at Hampton Court last weekend, for the Raisa Gorbachev Foundation party. Attendees came together to show their support and raise money for the foundation, which is committed to the control and elimination of childhood cancer.

Among those in attendance at the gala were: committee member Hugh Grant, designers Matthew Williamson and Patrick Cox, models Yasmin Le Bon and Lara Stone, and actresses Vanessa Redgrave, Joely Richardson and Angelica Huston.

Scream star Neve Campbell also made an appearance, looking gorgeous in a long-sleeved mini dress from Moschino’s forthcoming AW2010 collection. Showing off those enviable pins and sporting a new, heavy fringe, Campbell looked groomed to perfection in the gold-trimmed number and statement gold cuff.

We quite fancy recreating this simple yet stylish look ourselves, although since we don’t have the patience to wait for Moschino’s next collection, we’ve come up with a few suitable alternatives that will help to achieve a similar look…

Dress by Milly (£335) available at Net-a-Porter.

Cuff by Kara by Kara Ross (£225) available at Matches.

Clutch by Pied a Terre (£79 £47.50) available at House of Fraser.

Shoes by Christian Louboutin (£695) available at Net-a-Porter.

Earlier this week saw the opening of jewellery designer Solange Azagury-Partridge’s Mayfair store on London’s New Bond Street.

Designed by the contemporary and innovative jeweller herself, the boutique welcomed a host of individuals to peruse the space holding Azagury-Patridge’s prescious jewellery. Among those under the store’s elaborate Swarovski-encrusted ceiling was actress and Azagury-Partidge fan, Thandie Newton, who looked dazzling in a Vivienne Westwood Gold Label corset dress. Paired with black sandals and a simple clutch, we bet this shimmering number fit in perfectly with the store’s elaborate decor and its opulent jewels.

Get the Lily silk-taffeta corset dress in a bronze and violet two-tone shade: £1,788.04 from Net-a-Porter.

CDFA 2010 Winners:
The Lincoln Centre was the place to be earlier this week to witness one huge hotbed of fashion talent as the best names in the industry gathered in New York for one of the hottest tickets on the style calendar – the 2010 CDFAs. Read more here to find out who won what, and most importantly – what they were wearing.

Lara Stone for Calvin Klein:
Calvin Klein Inc. has just signed an exclusive deal with the Dutch model, making her the face of Calvin Klein Collection, CK Calvin Klein and Calvin Klein Jeans for AW10. If the previous faces of Calvin Klein are anything to go by – Kate Moss, Christy Turlington and Natalia Vodianova – then we think Lara has just scored the big one. Read more here.

Princess Diana’s Dress goes for £192,000:
When we told you that Princess Diana’s famous Emanuel designed dress was going up for auction we knew it would reach a pretty hefty amount, but we couldn’t have predicted it would reach a whopping £192, 000. Find out who the very lucky (and very rich) buyer was here.

Alexa Chung for Lacoste:
That Alexa Chung gets herself round when it comes to fronting campaigns/designing ranges/ presenting TV shows, and this time she’s set to be the face of the new Lacoste fragrance. We’re sure it smells great, but who cares! If it’s got Alexa’s face on it, they’ll buy it. Read more here.

Net-a-Porter to launch Men’s Site:
It’s been a great week for the men in our lives as the hugely successful e-tailer Net-a-Porter has announced that they will be launching a male counterpart after 10 years of bringing the best in fashion to women around the world. Now there’s no excuse for our men to be anything less than super stylish! Read more here.
