Our friends at fab footwear site Shudoo.co.uk took time out from sourcing the latest Uggs, Steve Maddens and Carvela heels to cast their expert eye over Cheryl Cole’s X Factor style – and here’s what the stores fashion editor Nikki Beukes had to say about everyone’s fave fashionista!

We must admit that we no longer have a social life since X Factor returned to our screens…

We’re as much glued to our TV sets on a Saturday night to hear the tone deaf contestants, who think they’re the next Mariah Carey, as to catch a glimpse of Cheryl Cole’s next fabulous outfit!
With her £36k exercise bike investment we knew that Cheryl would be in tip top shape as would her X Factor wardrobe.

From structured shoulder shirts and micro minis to PVC skinny trousers and corset print tops, Miss Cole has certainly not let us down in this year’s style stakes.

Being the shoe-aholics that we are, we can’t use ‘Cheryl Cole’ and ‘fashion’ in the same sentence without talking about her envious shoe collection.

She has definitely shown her love for Rupert Sanderson heels this season as well as mandatory pairs of Christian Louboutins, which are a staple amongst the glitterati, darling!

This is one fashionista that is not holding back this year; we can only imagine what fashion feasts the live show will have in store for us!
