Molly-Mae is 'obsessed' with new Dyson headphones that are fully customisable
Molly-Mae says she is 'obsessed' with Dyson's noise-cancelling headphones that boast up to 55 hours of battery life and are completely customisable From her signature glam to her luxe home aesthetic and minimalist fashion sense, Molly-Mae is known for having a taste for the best, so it's no surprise that she loves one of Dyson's latest gadgets. The Airwrap-famous brand announced the launch of its customisable headphones last summer, and they've now caught the attention of Molly, who called them her latest obsession. In an Instagram post to her followers, Molly shared that she had her eyes on Dyson's OnTrac Headphones for a while, after spotting them on one of her friends. Thanks to gadgets like Apple's AirPod Max, £499, and Sony's WH-1000XM5 Premium Noise Cancelling Headphones, currently £244, over-ear headphones have had a resurgence in popularity, especially ones that look sleek and stylish. However, it's not just about fashion with Dyson's pair. They've been engineered for all-day comfort and premium sound. Priced at £449, they are definitely an investment piece but match the prices of other brands such as Apple and Bose. Designed with soft microfibre ear cushions and high-rebound foam, they provide a comfortable fit that won't add too much pressure on the ear, even after all-day wear. The outer caps have been made from a high-grade aluminium, which makes them both lightweight and durable, and they're available in either an anodised CNC finish or a smooth ceramic texture. These headphones also have an extended sound range of 6 Hz to 21 kH, delivering fantastic sound quality, so every playlist, podcast, or phone call sounds crystal clear. They also feature active noise cancelling to block out background noise and 55 hours of battery life, meaning you can listen for weeks without recharging. However, what makes these headphones stand out from others on the market is their customisation. With an array of different colour combinations for the ear cushions and caps, you can make them totally your own. Molly kept true to her neutral and low-key aesthetic by opting for the CNC Black Nickel headphones combined with the Ceramic Chalk caps and the Caramel cushions. As with most things Molly-Mae posts, they're bound to trend and we predict these it-girl headphones will be the next big thing to get your hands on.

Molly-Mae Hague warns fans of deepfake perfume ad as she's targeted by AI scam
Molly-Mae Hague has said she had "never even smelt" the perfume that the deepfake advert claims is her favourite - as the 26-year-old laments the "scary" use of deep-fake clips Molly-Mae Hague has warned fans about the dangers of artificial intelligence after a fake video of her promoting a perfume went viral. The influencer and businesswoman, 26, shared a video online discussing a fan interaction that left her shaken up over the use of the technology. She said: 'Yesterday while I was in London, a girl came up to me and she was like oh I've just bought my best friend the perfume you love, for her birthday.' The girl told Molly-Mae that she had bought 'that Nyla one from TikTok '. The former Love Island star said: 'I was gobsmacked, I was like 'that's AI.'' Molly-Mae's sister, Zoe Rae, said: 'I thought it was a clip from an old YouTube video that they've used.' However, Molly-Mae continued on to say: 'There's this clip going around on TikTok, they do it with loads of different people, they'll literally put AI over the clip and be like 'this is Molly's favourite perfume' and it's me saying 'oh I love this Nyla perfume' in my literal voice but it's AI, how scary.' She told fans: 'People are actually buying this perfume thinking that it's my favourite perfume, and I've never even smelt it.' Molly-Mae is not the first celebrity to be the victim of deep-fake videos - with stars like Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, Nigella Lawson, and even Martin Lewis warning against the damaging effects of this technology. A deepfake is described as a video or sound recording that replaces a person's face or voice with that of someone else. They can be incredibly realistic, and used to sell products or services online. Police UK says that some deepfake content can take on the 'exact likeness of a real person'. While they aren't always harmful or illegal, it says that they are 'sometimes used for malicious and criminal purposes".

The comment section on a clip of Molly-Mae's video was divided, with one person writing: 'If people are gullible enough to believe that Molly-Mae or any other celeb wears some cheap TikTok shop perfume then that's on them.' Another said: 'It's very obvious lol. I've seen the same thing about different influencers and different perfumes on TikTok.' However, others explained that they were victims of the fake advert. One person said: 'I didn't even realise it was AI until now.' Someone else posted: 'Omg I feel for this too! I bought it!' A third commented: 'Ahhh man why am I seeing this after I've already bought it.' The Advertising Standards Agency revealed earlier this year that it received 1,691 reports of potential scams in 2024. Celebrity scams were the biggest trend, it said, as they made up the 'vast majority of Scam Ad Alerts' sent last year. It warned: 'The public interest in celebs and other public figures means scammers continue to turn to them to promote cryptocurrency, investment, keto slimming gummies and the like.' If you see an online advert featuring a celebrity, you should do some checks before handing over your details or buying the product. The ASA says: 'Check if they are posting from their official account and consider if the ad seems out of character. While some celebrities do endorse products, they don't usually promote complex investments or wonder cures."

Molly-Mae's sell-out £340 Saint Laurent sunglasses have a £27 high street alternative
Molly-Mae has just given us some sunglasses inspiration with her chic Saint Laurent pair, and we've found where to shop for a £27 alternative With sunnier weather reportedly on the way, and payday having just arrived, a new pair of sunglasses might be at the top of your wishlist. And if Molly-Mae's aviator sunglasses from her most recent Instagram post caught your attention, you're in luck, as we've found a £27 alternative to the £340 pair. Molly's pair is from Saint Laurent and retails for almost £350. Unfortunately, they are currently sold out everywhere - another case of the 'Molly-Mae effect'. However, we've found a lookalike pair for under £30 that is still in stock. The pair in question are the Oversized Square Retro Style Sunglasses from & Other Stories. Priced at £27, this similar-looking pair is more than £300 more affordable than Molly's one. The difference is of course the lens, with the & Other Stories' pair being more of a burgundy shade, but the retro aviator style is similar. Inspired by the 80s, these statement sunnies instantly elevate any look. Their oversized frame gives it that cool-girl vibe, while the brow bar adds a structured, throwback look that gives a nod to vintage fashion. The oversized silhouette is balanced out by the slim arms, which keep the shape looking sharp and sleek, and balance out the bolder frame. Whether you're sitting poolside on holiday, jetting off on a city break, or heading to brunch with your friends, these add an element of interest to your look. Designer sunglasses are usually worth the investment, in our opinion. However, when opting for trendier styles, such as these aviator, light-lens ones, it's best to go for more affordable styles in case you decide they don't fit your style any longer in a few years or even months. Having had sunglasses from & Other Stories in the past, I can say they are well worth the money for the quality. They've lasted longer than any other high-street sunglasses I've tried. Another favourite sunglass brand of Molly-Mae's is Vehla, who also have a similar alternative to the sold-out Saint Laurent pair. The Dixie Sunglasses are on the pricier side at £170, but are a go-to brand for so many celebrities thanks to their quality, fit and unique styles. Alternatively, River Island has an even more affordable pair with its Tortoise Metal Aviator Sunglasses, priced at £16. These are the most oversized of the lot, and add a real statement to any outfit.

The huge set of shelves can be ranged in a variety of ways, from three separate stands to one tall stack. It is perfect for storing pictures, plants or books and has dimensions of 38.5 x 33 x 151cm.

Others had creative ideas of their own, with one clever shopper saying: 'This could be good to use as shelving in a shed.' Shoppers are racing to B&M for Molly-Mae's latest collection & there are some incredible scents for less than a fiver The news comes after another wave of B&M's products went viral on social media. The Boucel Barstool in Beige is currently retailing for just £1, instead of the usual price of £20. According to one customer though, only the beige barstool is on sale - meaning fans are racing to shops before it sells out.

When comparing products, it is important to check the specifications so you buy the item that is best suited for your purposes.

'I found cheaper alternatives to Molly-Mae's earring stack and saved hundreds of pounds'
Molly-Mae Hague has a very expensive taste in jewellery, but you can copy the former Love Island's star's jewellery look for much less - here's how The fashion for small, chic, luxury-looking jewellery – particularly the trend of wearing multiple delicate stud or hoop earrings – has been popular for several years now and is a favourite amongst celebrities. So when I spotted a detailed image of Molly-Mae Hague's earring collection, it inspired me to expand my own collection of piercings and indulge in some new jewellery to emulate her style. The former Love Island contestant had previously revealed that many of her tiny studs and hoops are from the fashionable London-based jewellery brand and piercing studio Maria Tash. This high-end brand is a hit with celebrities and fashion fans alike, but their designs often come with a hefty price tag, often exceeding £1,000 for a single earring. However, without Molly-Mae's reported net worth of £6 million, I set out to find more affordable alternatives – and discovered some fantastic pieces that I adore and now wear daily. Astrid and Miyu I visited Astrid and Miyu to have a third hole pierced in my lobes and was thoroughly impressed with the service – swift, painless and friendly, with excellent advice – a vast improvement on previous piercing experiences, reports OK!. I chose Astrid and Miyu's Triple Topaz Piercing Stud 6mm for my new piercings. As all their piercings are made with solid metals, they aren't cheap – the pair cost me £320. However, they're designed to last a lifetime, I'll likely never remove mine, and I know they're the best material for my ears. While I was shopping, I also snagged these little Cosmic Star Charm Huggies in Gold for a much more affordable £65, which I absolutely adore, and resemble Molly-Mae's jewellery. Abbott Lyon Another brand I've been buying from recently is Abbott Lyon, a hit with celebrities such as Olivia Attwood and Stacey Solomon. Nearly every day, I round off my earring trio with the Sterling Silver Mini Starburst Crystal Earrings (Gold), priced at £69, which I reckon bear a striking resemblance to Maria Tash's designs. If I'm after a bit more of a statement earring look, I'll swap these out for either the Mini Organic Hoops (Gold), £39, or the Ribbed Hoops (Gold), £55,. Abbott Lyon's Strike Twice Lightning Bolt Earrings, retailing at £49, also bear a strong likeness to Molly-Mae's lightning bolt studs. Lily & Roo One jewellery retailer I haven't yet shopped but am eager to is Lily & Roo, whose designs are reminiscent of pieces frequently donned by the Princess of Wales. Lily & Roo's jewellery leans more towards timeless elegance rather than being trend-driven, ensuring they'll be cherished for a lifetime. I think these Gold Marquise Diamond Drop Hoop Earrings, £89, and Gold Curved Diamond Style Huggie Hoop Earrings, £79, appear far pricier than their actual cost.
