Yolanda Foster has revealed that she is not the only member of her famous family to be battling Lyme disease.

Two of her children are also battling the illness, she revealed while speaking at the Global Lyme Alliance in New York this week.

 

The 51-year old was diagnosed three years ago and accepted the Power of One award at the gala as she vowed to continue her fight to find a cure for the tick borne illness.

"When my two youngest children, Bella and Anwar, were diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease in early 2012, watching my babies struggle in silence in order to support me in my journey, struck the deepest core of hopelessness inside of me," the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star said.

 

Bella, 18, and Anwar, 16 were both on hand to support their mom, along with sister Gigi and her boyfriend Joe Jonas.

Gigi, 20, was given the task of introducing her mother to the stage and commented on Yolanda’s decision to star in the reality TV series:

"I remember when she was going into the first season of filming, she said to me, 'I don't know why this show was brought to my life, but for some reason, I think it will lead to something bigger.”

 

Her mom chose to dedicate her award to her children who also live with Lyme disease and promised:

“I will not allow you to live a life of pain and suffering. I will walk to the end of the earth to find a cure so that you can live a healthy life that you deserve.”

On the red carpet, Gigi gave an emotional interview with Entertainment Tonight about being the only one of her siblings to not have Lyme disease:

“What's been hardest for me is just trying to find a way to be their hope and kind of be a strength for them even with the disease that I can't understand fully because I haven't been through it.”

 

Not too long ago, singer Avril Lavigne made a return to music after she was forced to step away from the stage following her diagnosis.

"I thought I was dying … There were definitely times I couldn’t shower for a full week because I could barely stand," she said of her illness earlier this year.

Buns are the perfect go-to style when you want to get your hair up and out of your face in seconds. And they're especially great when then weather isn't exactly hairstyle-friendly. 

Sometimes though, the finished result can look a little, well, sloppy. 

This can be a bother for many of us; all we want to know is the secret to a bun that's messy enough to be stylish but polished enough to be work-appropriate. 

Well, the answer is teasing. Teasing your hair before putting it up on your head is a must-do step in your styling routine. It will make your bun look so much better. 

Here's how to do it:

Divide your hair into two sections; top and bottom. You can secure the top with a clip while you follow the next step. 

Tease the bottom section with a long tail comb, then secure it with bobby pins. 

Twist the bottom section up to add a little bit of texture to your do'. 

Next, smooth the top section of your hair with a cushion brush.

To finish, roll the top section of hair around the bottom section to create your bun and secure it tightly with bobby pins. 

The teased bottom section adds support, ensuring that your style has both volume and stability!

Only Kendall Jenner could manage to show both her nipples and her bum in the same outfit and STILL look classy.

The 19-year-old model stepped out in Paris last night with pal Gigi Hadid, and both catwalk queens donned sheer Balmain numbers for the evening.

Kendall's halter-necked jumpsuit with its flowing sheer chiffon pants gave photographers an eyeful from both the front…

… And the back. Nice thong!

As for Gigi, she wore a thigh-skimming emerald green minidress with a semi-sheer nude underlay, showing off her toned pins to perfection.

The girls were at Le Gabriel restaurant for a dinner to honour Balmain's creative director Olivier Rousteing.

Both Kendall and Gigi feature in the campaign for Balmain's new H&M collection which hits stores on November 5.

Not content with the paparazzi getting snaps of her daring outfit, Kendall was sure to post a selfie on Instagram too.

Or in this case, a belfie.

We kinda love this behind-the-scenes snap too, from fashion blogger Eva Chen.

Bums and Balmain… we bet these photos got Kim Kardashian's seal of approval.

We thought it was just Gigi and Bella modelling in the Hadid family, but now it seems their younger 16-year-old brother, Anwar, is about to step into the limelight. 

Making his modelling debut in the October issue of Nylon magazine, Anwar looks just as good as his sisters while striking a pose. 

In the interview, he talks about his family and gives Gigi and Bella their due shoutout. 

"My sisters are awesome; they probably taught me everything I ever need to know about girls."

“My family is my foundation, my mom is very liberal, but also old-fashioned when it comes to manners. She taught me to always be kind and treat others with respect.”

But famous family and friends aside – Anwar is just your average 16-year-old guy. 

“I admire people who can laugh at themselves and I get excited about anything from girls, cars, and climbing mountains to really good food.” 

But even though the younger Hadid is happy to model for now, he plans to go to college soon and decide on a profession then, because right now it “is too hard to imagine.”

With her lean figure, perfect curves and flowing blonde hair, Gigi Hadid seems like perfect model material to us, but not everyone agrees.

The 20-year-old model took to Instagram yesterday to hit back at critics of her body shape, saying she refused to take cruel comments to heart any longer. 

"I'm human, I'm not going to lie, I did let the negativity get to me a little," she admitted in the post, which she wrote over several days before posting online.

While Gigi's athletic body is a change from the boyish, super-skinny models so often seen on the catwalks, she says the progression should be seen as a good thing.

"I represent a body image that wasn't accepted in high fashion before," wrote the LA native, who has walked for Tommy Hilfiger, Diane von Furstenberg and Versace over the last fortnight alone.

"Yes I have boobs, I have abs, I have a butt, I have thighs, but I'm not asking for special treatment. I'm fitting into the sample sizes."

With a 64cm waist and 89cm hips, Gigi is just a few centimetres bigger than fellow model and BFF Kendall Jenner, but it seems that size difference has made her a target for some.

"I went to almost all of the agencies in New York when I first visited. A lot of them wanted to sign me but also kind of indirectly were telling me that I needed to change in some way," the model told Vogue.com yesterday.

"I signed with IMG because of how they supported me, who I am and who I already was. I always said I’m not going to change for anyone because I was really proud of who I was."

As a former volleyball champ, Gigi favoured a more muscular look in her teens, and says being skinny was never something she aspired to.

"I had crazy muscles and I [ate] like a man – more than the man that I eat like now, like a bigger man – and it was crazy but at the time I didn't care what my body looked like," she told Daily Mail last month.

"I just wanted to be the best volleyball player I could be so it didn't really matter to me."

We're loving Gigi's positive body image attitude.

Over the summer while many celebrities seemed to be on in the habit of going their seperate ways, there was at least one couple we could count on to give us some hope. 

Apparently, they've been nicknamed G.I Joe, but if you had told model of the moment Gigi Hadid this seven years ago she probably would have laughed. Gigi, 20, and her boyfriend Joe Jonas, 26, have known each other since Gigi was 13. How did they meet?

In probably the most Hollywood fashion you could imagine: at the Grammys. 

In a Periscope Q & A, the model revealed that back then she had no intention of attaching herself to the Jonas brother. She said that he asked her to a baseball game and she said, "No, maybe next time."

"I was so nervous; I literally didn't even know what it meant to hang out with a boy," she explained.

She also didn't think that Joe realised that the Grammys were on a Sunday and she had school on Monday, so she didn't think it would work out. Joe was persistent though and Gigi said she remembers that Joe "wrote his number on a piece of paper and gave it to my mom."

While the age gap might seem a little off to some, ET Online explained that Gigi may have gotten the ages mixed up. Apparently while she was pictured with her parents David and Yolanda Foster at the 2010 Gremmys she was not pictured at the 2009 event. So she was probably 14 when she and Joe first met. 

The duo certainly seem to have moved on since then as they have been practically inseparable this summer. 

Ever since the news broke that Gigi and Australian singer Cody Simpson were no longer an item, pictures began to emerge of she and Joe almost everywhere. 

The runway model even hosted a very sweet (very star-studded) surprise birthday party for the former Disney star.

Every year, Pirelli asks twelve of the world's most beautiful women to appear in their much-talked-about calendar. 

The calendar is usually a collection of provocative portraits released annually by the Italian tire manufacturer.

While invitations have historically been reserved for supermodels and fashion icons, the first star set to appear in the 2016 edition is American sports legend, Serena Williams.

The tennis pro took to Twitter today to announce the exciting news.

The calendar is famous for its sexy edge and tasteful touch of nudity, was shot in July and will be released in its entirety come November.

Joining the ranks of so many supers, Serena has achieved Pirelli girl status just as Karlie Kloss, Gigi Hadid and Joan Smalls have in the past.

We've had our eye on Gigi's gorgeous vegan leather trousers for a while now.

Unfortunately, through the summer they were unavailable for us to buy. Sob.

But now, American label Blank NYC have launched them on their website – AND they deliver to Ireland. Yipee!

They are a bit on the steep side, costing $188 (€166), but if you want to dress like a model that's the way it goes. 

Rock them with a cosy jumper for brunch or keep it slick like Gigi with a structured blazer.

In case you had not noticed, New York Fashion Week has brought an awful lot of celebrities and their very important entourage members all together.

There was a lot of events, hundreds of outfit changes and of course, there were some snarky comments tossed about between the celebs. Cosmopolitan gathered up some of the most outrageous remarks that were overheard over the course of the fashion extravaganza, and they were hilarious.

These are just some of most hilarious things that people overheard the fashion crowd saying, in very crowded, very public places. 

"I was sitting across from Anna. She yawned, she checked her watch, she looked up at the ceiling and played with her jewelry, and she texted. I've seen her not like a show before but never like that. She hated it."

"Who is that Russian mistress in the front row?"

"I don't want her to be physically hurt, because that would be mean. Just emotionally."

"They say smart things. Like, they analyze Magic Mike in an intellectual way, which is what I do with my friends."

"I love when Jimmy Choo did Uggs! That was a good day in fashion."

 "This is their new shoe. It's also a hat. Unisex."

 "It's 10 a.m. and I already saw a nip slip."

"This show's front row is like a who's who of mother-daughter plastic surgery."

"I know the '70s are back, but please still trim your chest hair and don't grow a mustache."

"Poor Kim trying to wear those clothes and she just looked like a big poo emoji."

New York Fashion Week closed with a majorly star-studded fashion party last night. 

Models, movie stars, and street style stars alike gathered at Harpers Bazaar Icons party for a night full of drinking, dancing, and, oh yeah – fabulous outfits. 

Everyone took the night's black tie code very seriously, but as always there were a few fashion disasters in the crowd. 

From embellishment and lace, crystals and cutouts, here are the best and worst dressed stars from the night. 

Katy Perry – hit

Katy Perry stunned wearing Saint Laurent. We are also digging her new red do'. 

 

Gigi Hadid – hit

Gigi wore a highly anticipated H&M x Balmain dress and pulled it off effortlessly. 

 

Mariah Carey – miss

We're not sure about this one Mariah, it's a bit too mum-sy for us and kind of looks like a child's room that's full of glow-in-the-dark star stickers.

 

Allesandra Ambrosio – undecided

Yes, she is stunning and WOW, her body – but we think this showed a bit too much for last nights event. It kind of looks like a swimsuit, don't you agree? 

 

Suki Waterhouse – hit

We LOVE what Suki wore last night. Grecian Goddess eat your heart out. 

 

Kendall Jenner – miss

We think Kendall looks a bit drab and boring here. She could have dressed A LOT better for this high-profile event.

 

Kate Upton – hit

Even though her chest looked a tiny bit squashed in this number she still rocked the sultry, sexy look.

 

Bella Hadid – hit

We love this black Kaufmanfranco number on Bella. Opposite to Suki Waterhouse, we're getting a dark Grecian Goddess vibe.

 

Alex Pettyfer and Marloes Horst – hit

Hot couple goals! We love Marloes dreamy dress and Alex looks just as good in his black tux. 

 

Jaden Smith – miss

Go home Jaden. He looks a little lost in the ultra-glam crowd. We're sure his clothes cost a bomb, but really, he could of at least worn a shirt.

 

Rita Ora – undecided

We love it because it's Prada, but otherwise, we're not so sure.

 

Rachel Zoe – undecided

Don't get us wrong, we love Rachel Zoe's effortlessly cool style. On the one hand she looks very slick in the trend-setting fringe number; but on the other hand, it kind of reminds us of a disco ball.

Since the announcement was made four months ago, we've been silly excited about Balmain's arrival at H&M.

With good reason too – not only is the French fashion house one of the hottest labels of the moment (thank you, Kim Kardashian) – it's haute couture status means it is also one of the most eye-wateringly expensive.

Indeed, simple blazers come in at around €1,500 with sandals similarly priced. Meanwhile, a leather embellished mini dress from this season is a cool €8,500.

And though H&M has over the last decade brought us seriously affordable designer goodies at distinctly high-street prices – it seems that this collaboration will be somewhat more pricey.

Debuting one of the pieces last night, Gigi Hadid hit the red-carpet at the swish Harper's Bazaar Fashion Week closing party in New York.

With head designer Olivier Rousteing's signature geometrical pattern being used to full-effect, the long-sleeved dress sports monochrome and subtle gold hues.

It was the price, however, that really caught our eye: a cool €500.

Although the dress is likely to be among the most expensive pieces on sale come November 5 (when the range launches internationally – including in Ireland), last year's Alexander Wang collection was not quite so dear. 

Fans then were invited to snap-up over-the-knee socks for just €15 and tank tops for €30. At the other end of the scale, the range charged around €200 for footwear, with a metallic down jacket – the most costly Wang item on sale – being priced at €350.

'Too much fashion, not enough week.'

Poor Kendall Jenner has obviously been feeling the strain that comes with being a sought-after model during NYFW, but she's still smiling.

The 19-year-old model took to Instagram yesterday between catwalk shows to give us a glimpse of the chaos.

In a video shared with her 36.7m followers, Kendall sits in the front seat of her car, with her black jeans rolled up to the knee, casually shaving her legs.

Definitely a time-saver… as long as you don't drive over any speed bumps mid-shave. 

The reality-star-turned-supermodel has already walked for Givenchy and Diane Von Furstenburg so far this NYFW, the latter with her "fashion week partner in crime" Gigi Hadid.

This is Gigi's first NYFW, but we doubt she was too nervous as she's had both Kendall AND her younger sister Bella by her side for her shows so far.

The Hadid sisters wowed on the Tommy Hilfiger catwalk yesterday, even stopping for a kiss mid-strut.

Cheeky!
