It’s the new ITV show where pop stars take on the massive challenge to become opera stars and, if you’ve been watching, you would have seen just well they’re doing.

Of course, such shows always demand a little glitz n glamour and, with Glitzy Secrets perfectly fitting the bill, you may well have spotted the celebrities adorned with our costume jewellery as they sparkle in the spotlight.

Whether you’re an opera fan or not, you cannot fail to be impressed by the performances the stars are giving. From the theatrical style of Kym Marsh, the classic elegance of Marcella Detroit to the dramatic transformation of McFly’s Danny Jones to name just a few, the show turns reality TV all high brow and even those who think electric hair curlers at the mention of Carmen, will recognise some of the infamous arias.

You can catch Pop Star to Opera Star on ITV on Friday evenings.

New mum Coleen Rooney always looks oh so chic. Known for mixing high street with designer labels, her effortless style combines up-to-the-minute trends with classic chic. OK magazine shows how to get Coleen’s look with key items and accessories and features Glitzy Secrets Garland of Love Headband. This simple, understated ’piece’ is the perfect hair accessory to steal of the style of one of our favourite WAGS.

We take a look at why the headband deserves its status of the hair accessory of the season…

1. Great for all hair lengths. From holding back long luscious locks with style to adding adornment to a chic crop, it works fabulously for every length.
2. Growing out a fringe? A headband is a must-own for holding it back during those awkward in between stages.
3. Statement hair combs and barrettes can be heavy to secure in finer hair types - a head band is the perfect alternative to add bold decoration without having to be fixed in the hair.
4. It’s the perfect wedding hair accessory for bridesmaids. If you’re going for matching style for all your attendants, it can be difficult to find an accessory which works for every hair type and length. Headbands are the answer to your prayers!
5. Some brides wouldn’t contemplate their wedding day without a traditional tiara, others want an alternative. The headband provides a modern twist and a look with resembles the tiara but with less formality.

So if it’s good enough for Coleen, it’s good enough for us. Now where is that wishlist for Santa?!!!

The gorgeous Cheryl Cole certainly has the X-Factor and, on last Saturday’s show, her fabulous jewelled head band made her sparkle even more than usual (if that’s at all possible!). Always one of the first to pick up on an emerging trend, The Sun says “We may be all about Dannii’s versatile barnet at the moment, but her fellow X Factor judge Cheryl Cole certainly is not to be ignored in the hair stakes. Last week’s gorgeous Versace Grecian dress was teamed with a stunning Jenny Packham crystal-covered hair accessory. At £350 it certainly is not cheap, but we have found five other statement hair pieces that will give you a little taste of INSTANT Cheryl-chic.”

Featuring both Blooms of Extravagance Large Hair Comb and Vintage Paradise Head Band by Glitzy Secrets, it’s never been easier to give luscious locks the X-Factor. Forget subtle though, it’s all about bold, dramatic headbands and hair accessories. Think Hollywood glamour. Think utterly gorgeous. Judges comments please…
