She's spent £4,000 a year on hair 拡張s, £9,500 on her smile - and £36,000 on an 演習 bike. How Cheryl Cole gave herself the X-factor.

Brunette Barbie: Cheryl Cole chose a daring dress to wear on her birthday night out

With the best will in the world, you could not call it subtle - but then if you have spent £4,165 on an Alexander McQueen dress for your 26th birthday party, you are probably やめる anxious to be noticed.

And there's not much of it - the dress is 主として sheer, and it probably 作品 out at about £50 per square centimetre of fabric.

But then, as Dolly Parton famously 発言／述べるd: 'You'd be surprised how much it costs to look this cheap.'

If it was not 存在 worn by Cheryl Cole, a delectable Geordie Tinkerbell, who is only 5ft 3in tall and takes a size four dress, it would undoubtedly look even worse than it does.

But Cheryl is, it seems, the style goddess of the moment - she has the most 願望（する）d hairstyle, 最高の，を越すs every fashion 投票 and sells magazines like no one else.

As Melanie Rickey, fashion editor-at-large of Grazia magazine, 述べるd her to me, she is a 'brunette Barbie', whose 時折の howling fashion errors make her more lovable.

Cheryl celebrated her birthday last week with an extravagant party for her friends at Vanilla 私的な members club in London.

Simon Cowell and Dannii Minogue were in 出席. Husband footballer Ashley Cole 追跡するd in her wake, having had a dinner with her and, rather unromantically, her mother Joan beforehand.

Joa n and Cheryl come as a 一括 取引，協定, behaving more like sisters than mother and daughter.

Joan, 49 and 離婚d, spends part of the year living with Cheryl and Ashley at their mansion in Surrey, and has done ever since they returned from their honeymoon.

Cheryl 明らかに 主張するs on this because she gets lonely. The other 非，不，無-negotiable is Cheryl's beloved chihuahua Buster, who not only （機の）カム to their 2006 wedding, but had his own diamante-encrusted outfit.

明確に no 囚人 to the diktats of good taste, Cheryl entered the 階級s of the 最高の-豊富な some time ago.

She now lives in a £3.5 million mansion on a gated 広い地所 in Oxshott, with footballer John Terry and tennis 星／主役にする Andy Murray as her 隣人s.

Fashion mistakes: Cheryl has made many errors, such as the see-through 最高の，を越す she wore during Euro 2006 whilst supporting husband Ashley Cole

Her own fortune is said to be £9 million - £5 million from Girls Aloud, £1 million a year from her 役割 as a 裁判官 on X Factor, 加える 収入s from other 裏書，是認s and 所有物／資産／財産.

Ashley, 一方／合間, earns £3.5 million a year from Chelsea. The outfits she favours are in keeping with this 超過.

'She is definitely a style icon, but not a fashion icon,' says Melanie Rickey. 'She is someone who most young girls would really like to look like. It's not about the labels she wears, but about her look. She has a sort of brunette Barbie look about her.

The chav 時代: Cheryl Cole has come a long way since the days of these ill-advised outfits, 含むing another sheer 最高の，を越す in 2007 (left) and a tummy-exposing 最高の，を越す and penchant for belts in 2005 (権利)?

'She has some terrible fashion moments - that green diamante Melissa Odabash swimsuit she wore the other week was really for a 40-something women who 手配中の，お尋ね者 to hide her tummy after having children. And she's got a 証拠不十分 for dodgy cowboy hats.'

It was 報告（する）／憶測d that Cheryl spends だいたい £100,000 a year 持続するing herself - from 雇うing dieticians to stylists.

However, we can 明らかにする／漏らす t hat to mimic Cheryl's fashion, fitness and beauty 政権 you would have to spend more like £250,000 - an astonishing sum. Now, what did Dolly Parton say?
