Victoria Beckham at the MET Costume Ball

Victoria Beckham at the MET Costume Ball

Welcome to FemaleFirst's fifth instalment of the 2009 Fashion Forecast; here we'll be bringing you all the big trends, events and stylish celebs of the year, all broken down month by month. 

One thing's for certain, and that's that the months are now passing us by at an alarming rate, because it's now time to look at all things fabulously fashionable for May.

MET Costume Gala: Wow, the glitz and the glamour from last night's event was seriously amazing, and we're currently in pure awe of Kate Moss, Victoria Beckham and Kate Beckinsale for their dress offerings! Madonna on the other hand, how could you get it so wrong?!

Rain, rain, and more rain: Yes, forget April being the wettest month, as May looks set to be a washout before we get a bucket load of sunshine in June. Good job we told you in our A To Z last month to buy a trendy umbrella wasn't it?!

The Saturday's Collection for Rare: We revealed that The Saturday's were turning designer last month, and we reckon their fabulous offerings will be hitting fashion desks any now, so stay tuned for a sneak peak!

Star Trek: Yes, we know it's not the most obvious of films for fashion, but we're excited none the less to dig out the shoulder pads and Spock ears once again! Balmain, eat your heart out.

Jessica Biel: This lovely young lady has just been announced as the new face of Revlon, and we're excited to see how she will fair against big names like Halle Berry and Jessica Alba. We just like that she's no longer being referred to as Justin Timberlake's girlfriend.

Marc Jacobs: Do we ever need a reason to feature this man in our fashionable guide?! No, we do not and this month he's just about been everywhere, what with his new Louis Vuitton campaign confirmed, his engagement to Lorenzo Martone announced and his MET Ball commitments taking over, he is the most famous designer on the planet right now.

Shorts With Tights: A bizarre new trend that is sweeping the nation as we speak is shorts paired with tights. We can kind of see how it would work, but doesn't it just defeat the object of shorts in general?!

Coloured Ankle Socks: Ooo, we do love a new mini-trend and coloured ankle socks are set to be massive this season, so invest in some baby blue, pink and yellow ones this summer.

Lindsay Lohan's Tanning Range: This much publicised, completely new and inventive (blah, blah, blah) tanning range hits the shelves this month, but the question remains- do you want to glow like Li-Lo this summer?
