Kendall Jenner may seem too young to get married – but she doesn’t see it that way!

The young model uploaded this photo of her rocking not one, but two huge sparklers on her ring finger with the caption: “No ones putting a ring on it so I put two.”

Kendall was seen wearing the massive diamonds at the Cannes Film Festival in France recently.

We have a feeling that if the stunning model wanted someone to put a ring on it, she wouldn’t have too much trouble!

Wonder if she borrowed her big sis, Kim’s ring for the event? These certainly look like they could rival the bride-to-be’s!

It’s one of the most glamorous festivals of the movie world, and now the official line-up for Cannes 2014 has been revealed.

The man most of us imagined marrying one day – Ryan Gosling – will show off his directorial debut with How to Catch a Monster. Is there anything he can’t do?

The most talked about showdown will be between two of the biggest British directors today, as Ken Loach presents Jimmy’s Hall up against Mike Leigh’s biopic Mr. Turner about painter JMW Turner.

Both will go head to head for the prestigious Palme d’Or.

Other big names in the line-up include David Cronenberg with the Robert Pattinson-starring Map to the Stars, Jean-Luc Godard, with Goodbye to Language, Olivier Assayas’ Sils Maria staring Kristen Steward and the much hyped Nicole Kidman-starring biopic Grace of Monaco.

The 67th Cannes festival will run from 14th to 25th May – and we can’t wait to see who’s wearing what on the red carpet.

It appears as if every celebrity in the world is at Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival this week – and Queen Bey is no exception!

Coachella is being held in the Indio desert in California and although Beyoncé was not scheduled to perform, it would seem she couldn’t resist!

Beyoncé made a surprise appearance on stage with her little sister Solange for a rendition of ‘Losing You’.

Wow, we can only imagine being in the crowd when she appeared on stage – we bet the crowd went insane!

The horse racing season is well underway, launching a long summer of outdoor occasion dressing ahead of us. Follow these race day attire tips to ensure your odds are through the roof this season.

Dress accordingly for the occasion and the weather
Remember, you’ll be outside for most of the day, not hitting a nightclub. Don’t have your skirt too short, heels you can’t walk in and the too much flesh on display.  Race festival fashion should be more demure than disco.

Balance your outfit
If you’re going all out with a flamboyant hat, keep the rest of your outfit understated.

Accessorise, accessorise, accessorise
A day at the races is all about having fun with your outfit and accessorising is a must.  Bags, heels and hats are the staple pieces that should complement the outfit to get that polished look.

Solid colours
Block colours make for a dynamic, confident look that’s perfect for the races. Alternatively, monochrome, the staple style for the Belmont Stakes in New York, can leave a lasting impression. Pair monochrome outfits with a bold red lip and small clutch for a dynamic overall look.
