LITTLE Mix star Perrie Edwards modeled her own merch in a series of sizzling selfies at the weekend.

The songstress, 32, snapped herself in the mirror, wearing just a long black T-shirt with her own face emblazoned across the front of it.

Perrie donned a netted black beanie and showed off her lithe legs in knee-high PVC boots.

She wore her blonde locks in a bouyant style and added a vampy, deep red slick of lipstick to the look.

Perrie showed off her moves in the mirror for the selfies, dipping into a deep squat for the sexy snaps.

In one seductive shot, she was seen slightly lifting up the tee, revealing more of her legs.

Perrie Edwards stuns in unseen wedding clip – as Little Mix bandmate spotted

The singer is still only a month on from her wedding to Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

She and her footballer husband tied the knot in an intimate ceremony last month after nearly a decade together.

Perrie was straight back to work though, hitting the festival circuit for the summer.

She took to the stage at the Isle of Wight Festival at the end of June, belting out hits for a buzzing crowd while wearing an all black skintight outfit.

Though she couldn’t help but take a moment to gush about her wedding to everyone, sharing how she is utterly “obsessed” with being able to call Alex her husband now.

Perrie and Alex jetted off to Portugal for their big day alongside friends and family.

Insiders said the pair married in a low-key ceremony before hosting their closest family friends at the posh Parrilla Natural restaurant.

The pair said their vows in the Igreja Matriz de Estoi church in the village of Estoi in Faro, close to where they own a villa.

Perrie, who had six bridesmaids including her sister Caitlyn wore a long-sleeved, lace gown, while Alex looked smart in a tux.

When manufacturers begin to design new boots – a process that can start up to two years before release – they often consult trend forecasters such as WGSN to learn which colours, themes and styles are likely to be ‘in’ when the product eventually hits the shelves.

But there are other factors as to why pink has been a hit in football.

Of course, players are far more open to wearing extravagant boots than previous generations.

But the simple reason the companies have hit upon pink is because of how it contrasts with the green of the pitch.

It stands out whether you are watching on television, at the stadium, or scrolling on your phone.

The pink boot shows up if you are looking at slow-motion clips, or watching under stadium lights.

In a nutshell – it is highly visible.

But the irony may be that, with so many manufacturers arriving at pink, perhaps it is more difficult for their designs to stand out?

ZENDAYA looks a little bit stumped as she poses against a fallen tree trunk.

The Dune actress, 29, wore a plunging brown dress and matching PVC boots for the cover of Elle magazine.

Zendaya, whose partner is Spider-Man actor Tom Holland, also laid in the hay in a white cut-out dress.

She told the mag: “I think I do have wisdom to offer, but I also do still feel like a f***ing kid. Like, ‘What the f***, I’m about to be 30?

“I still feel like a child inside.”

A new Euphoria feud has emerged last month as Zendaya’s “tension” with a show star was revealed – and it’s not Sydney Sweeney.

This comes as insiders told the Daily Mail Zendaya has a rocky relationship with the actress, who apparently flirted with her man Tom Holland on set.

But now, it seems Zendaya has clashed with another member of the Euphoria team.

Eager fans have long questioned why the new series of the show has taken so long to air – but it seems the real reasons have finally surfaced.

The creator of the HBO series, Sam Levinson, recently told fans the delay between season two and three was a result of strikes, the in-demand cast and finding the right way to pay tribute to Eric Dane and Angus Cloud.

However, a source told Vanity Fair the delay between series sparked serious tension behind the scenes, creating a rift between Sam and Zendaya.

Vanity Fair’s source claimed the once close collaborators grew apart and Zendaya was less involved with development of the third season.

Back in 2008, a Wales Under-20s side went deep into the Junior World Championship and hinted at what was coming. Sam Warburton, Justin Tipuric, Dan Biggar, Rhys Webb, Jonathan Davies and Halfpenny were in that side.

Grand Slams, titles and World Cup semi-finals. For a time, the best team in the world.

One by one, they’ve gone. Halfpenny is the last.

The numbers are strong. Some 101 caps, 801 points – third behind Neil Jenkins and Stephen Jones – but they don’t quite explain him.

He was unassuming, almost bashful, and the last person looking for credit.

Yet the one everyone trusted.

Nobody has a bad word to say about him. In this game, that’s rare.

His former Wales coach Warren Gatland called him the best defensive full-back the game has seen. At his peak, especially with the British & Irish Lions in 2013, he was probably the best full-back. Full stop.
