Rachael Finch is slammed online for shocking fashion faux pas: 'None of this is okay'
Rachael Finch has committed a fashion felony according to her longtime pal Ashley Pollard.
The former Miss Universe runner-up took to Instagram on Wednesday to defend her choice of shoes, which Ash publicly disapproved of.
In a clip posted on her story, Rachael could be seen walking through her office in a pair of animal-print ballet flats adorned with large buckle straps.
'Sorry @ashpollard_ got the leopard vans out today,' she captioned the post.
The 36-year-old paired the ensemble with a denim skirt and long grey coat.

My Kitchen Rules alum Ash, 39, then took to her socials to slam the footwear, as well as Rachael's decision to wear socks with the shoes.
'None of this is okay. Especially the BLACK socks!! Da f**k,' she hilariously wrote over a snap of the shoes, while tagging Rachael.
The mum-of-two responded in retaliation: 'Love my comfy shoes and my non-smelly feet LOL.'
Rachael and Ash have been longtime friends, with the pair meeting back in 2015 at a PR luncheon at Flemington Racecourse.
Since then, they have enjoyed getaways together and featured heavily on each other's Instagram pages.
This isn't the first time the Kissed Earth founder has made headlines for her questionable fashion choices.
Just a few weeks ago, Rachael was seen embracing a sometimes maligned trend.
She was spotted working her angles in a pair of skin tight skinny jeans during an outing in a salon in Sydney's Cronulla.
Rachael paired the sleek trousers with a black leather belt and tank top in the same dark tone.
She completed the look with a pair of stacked white sneakers and opted for a natural makeup look.
Rachael could be seen posing up a storm while her phone was attached to a glass door with a suction holder.
Skinny jeans had fallen out of favour in recent years, with Gen Z declaring them uncool and dated.
But the tide appears to have changed in 2025, with many young influencers declaring the 2010s staple is back in vogue.

MAFS star reveals she's turned to fat jabs in desperate bid to lose weight after being bodyshamed on show and by trolls
A MARRIED At First Sight star has revealed she's been subject to "shame" after opting to use fat jabs to lose weight. The E4 favourite, who featured in the Australian version of the matchmaking series, told of her "frustration" at more traditional methods which failed to have an impact on her wellbeing. 6 6 6 The auburn-haired star, 37, found fame on Married At First Sight 's most recent series, where fans were quick to call out her groom Tim Gromie's cruel conduct. MAFS fans watched in horror as school teacher Tim brutally rejected Katie Johnston just minutes after they said I Do - as he insisted she was nothing like what he "would have wanted". Having pulled a producer to the side, he exclaimed: "What the f***?" He continued: "Totally not what I wanted. "It's not good. I normally go just short, blonde. petite. "Katie is like nothing that I would normally go for." After the body-shaming on screen, restaurant CEO Katie told how she was using "scientific help" for her weight loss - because "that's what it's there for." In a piece to camera filmed outside, she told fans: "I have initially started my GLP1 journey with quite a bit of shame wrapped around it. "Because I was frustrated that I couldn't do it myself and I just didn't have the capacity to figure it out on my own. MAFS' Katie breaks down in tears in upsetiting scenes with Tim "And I utilised scientific help and that's what it's there for. "So it's anything, any meds that you use to help you control parts of yourself like for example anti anxieties, I've used anti anxieties for really bad times in my life that I couldn't cope." GLP1 is a natural hormone that helps regulate blood sugar and appetite. It also plays a role in slowing down digestion, and is often a treatment used to help Type 2 Diabetes. The star, whose show groom rudely confessed he wanted to "run away" during the experiment ultimately ended up quitting the series. Mafs couples that have stood the test of time Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby. The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam's Doncaster home. Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau. Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December. Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: 'I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out - and excited for everything to come.' Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019. Owen recalled: 'I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work. "While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in. 'The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, 'Wouldn't it be funny if I signed up?' 'A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.' Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson. Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna's vegan lifestyle, the show's first same sex pairing are still going strong. They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod. Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: "We're not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship." Yet Queensland native Katie has gained a legion of loyal fans since appearing on-air, who appreciate her cheery character and bubbly, positive personality. Though showing how the backlash towards fat jabs had hit a nerve, she said in her long clip: "OK I'm going to go on a little bit of a rant because I'm frustrated and that's what I do when I'm frustrated. "I'm over people being shamed for using GLP1 or any other method of weight loss. "Anything that people do is their choice and it's up to them and only you know your path and what got you into the position you are and the help that you need. "Only you know that. Sorry about my b****y state "But just be kind to yourself. She rounded off with the words: "So please don't let the narrative out there that it's so easy to lose weight and just eat well, just exercise well. "Just be more motivated, have more discipline - go away! Leave us alone. We're figuring it out. "We are giving ourselves breathing space to be able to implement new habits and learn new things and transition our life to a healthier life. "So help us on our journey and cheer us on instead of giving us a hard time, thank you." She captioned the video: "Dear THAT person, go away, we are all on our own path, you do you, " and one fan replied: "You are so right Katie and I love you either way and you will always be my fave girl x" A second put: "Love this message," as a third posted: "Screw them loves you are amazing and you are rocking it." One then added: "You just keep being You XOXO." Another surmised: "Just keep being you and good luck in your next wellbeing journey everyone needs little help now and again be kind to yourself and ignore the negativity of people xx" SHOW STORY Since her show stint which aired in the UK earlier this year, it emerged her groom Tim had been messaging another bride during their honeymoon. During the scenes, fans were convinced the tattooed star who had an extreme reluctance to talk about his own marriage was a producer "plant." Tim told their co-stars at the Dinner Party he felt he was making the most effort in their relationship, having struggled to find a connection with her - despite scenes showing the exact opposite playing out on screen. It left Katie's fellow bride Jamie furious as she defended Katie and branded Tim a 'gaslighter'. 6 6 6

Elle Macpherson, 61, looks decades younger as she makes glamorous appearance at launch of her new book in London
She's the Australian supermodel who rose to fame on the international fashion scene in the 1980s. And now Elle Macpherson is wowing fans as an author. The ageless 61-year-old recently appeared in London as the special guest for a 'super women' breakfast to promote her 2024 memoir, Elle: Life, Lessons & Learning to Trust Yourself. Held at the prestigious Soho Mews House, the Sydney-born fashionista cut an elegant figure in cream slacks and a matching low cut top. Elle looked much younger than her years as she paired the outfit with a stylish overcoat. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Letting her long tresses fall over her shoulders, Elle accessorised with an elaborate silver necklace. The leggy runway star later shared a gallery of images from the event, in which she could be seen giving a talk about her 'wellness philosophy'. She also included a video of a question and answer session. Meanwhile, Elle recently opened up about using cocaine during her modelling years late last month. The supermodel spoke at length about her addiction and journey to getting sober in her memoir, Elle: Life, Lessons & Learning to Trust Yourself. In one chapter, she revealed she would frequently get black-out drunk and drink 'shots of vodka' after putting her sons Cy and Flynn to bed when they were young. She went on to confess in November on The Kyle and Jackie O Show that she used cocaine in the past for weight loss. Radio host Kyle Sandilands told her: 'I made the mistake, and I'm happy to admit it, that I thought I'd lose weight by having cocaine for ten years. 'Now, did I lose the weight? No, I didn't. I got the bloat.' In response, Elle admitted: 'I've done that!' In her memoir, Elle - who was dubbed 'The Body' at the peak of her fame - detailed the depths of her addiction before giving up alcohol and getting sober in 2003. She shared her habit of drinking shots at night while with her now ex Arpad 'Arki' Busson—the father of her children. 'My life looked amazing to everybody. On the outside I was doing a beautiful job but, deep down inside, I was really struggling,' she wrote in her book. She also explained why she controversially turned to holistic healing methods rather than chemotherapy after getting diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017. 'It wasn't like there was a one size fits all golden bullet... that you could just take and say, "Okay, this is going to guarantee upper wellness at the end of it,"' she said. 'Sometimes it's a combination; it's not either-or, maybe it's a combination of things.'

Annie Knight, who has been dubbed 'Australia's most sexually active woman,' has splashed out $600,000 on her dream home - after sleeping with 583 men in one day. And in a surprise revelation, the 28-year-old OnlyFans star announced she intended to raise a family. Taking to her stories on Thursday, the Gold Coast based-internet celebrity described her new four-bedroom home as 'perfect'. Appearing in the short clip in a modest crew neck sweater Annie gushed over the property's features which she said, included a 'big backyard' and a pool. 'I made $600,00 from 583 guy challenge and I bought my dream home,' she declared.

'When I say this is my dream home I mean that, it is so, so perfect,' she continued adding it had 'space' and offered potential to 'add on'. 'I can't tell you how big this block is,' she raved, 'its in the best location for schools and what not.' In a move that may surprise her fan base, the newly engaged sex worker announced that she 'couldn't wait' to start raising a family her new home. 'A lot people think that its crazy that I talk about having kids and having a family, when I do what I do,' she confessed. 'But I've always had a dream to raise and have a family. And I hope to raise them to be non judgemental and pro SW [sex work].' 'My mum never raised me to be judgemental of other people and always told me to accept people for who they are. 'And that's how I plan to raise my children. And I can't wait to raise them to be as accepting and non-judgemental as I am. 'And I know they will understand why I chose the career that I did and be grateful for a everything hopefully I will be able to provide for them. She then added that her plans to start a family was still a 'little way off by the way'. It comes after the adult content creator is currently planning to tie the knot with fiancé Henry Brayshaw. The happy couple, who have been friends for ten years, got engaged in March - just one week after rekindling their relationship. Henry, 27, popped the question over a romantic dinner in Beverly Hills during a trip to LA. Sparing no expense, Henry, who is the son of sports commentator James Brayshaw, proposed to Annie with a three-carat diamond, which Daily Mail Australia revealed is worth up to $200,000. The enormous oval cut stone takes up almost the width of Annie's finger and is placed on an elegant gold band. Austen & Blake jewellery expert Tony French exclusively told Daily Mail Australia that 'a natural diamond of this carat could cost anywhere between $140,000-$200,000. Annie said she has already started planning her nuptials, with the couple hoping to wed in late 2026 in Australia. 'I'm a very organised person. I love planning,' she gushed to Daily Mail Australia. Annie also revealed her mother Karyn was the first person she called after Henry popped the question, but after informing her father Simon and her friends, she went straight to OnlyFans to tell her subscribers. The blonde makes millions by selling sexually explicit videos and images to her devout fans on the adult website, and Annie made sure they knew she wouldn't be going anywhere despite the ring on her finger. Earlier this year, Annie made it clear her relationship with Henry won't stop her from bedding hundreds of men before her wedding night. She said her fiancé is completely monogamous and faithful to her and is forbidden from sleeping with other women - but the same rules don't apply to her. Not only did Annie have sex with 600 men last year, she's now got her sights set on doing 1,000 guys before the end of 2025 and says that wedded bliss with her husband-to-be isn't going to change a thing.
