The World Premier of Snow White and The Huntsman

What do you do on a Monday Night in London .... Um...... Erm...???
And then your phone rings.....
"Would you like to go to the World Premier of Snow White and the Huntsman tonight?"
" Hell YES!!!!!!!!! Thank you !!!"


What an absolutely fabulous Monday evening it turned out to be!!!


Leicester Square was buzzing with excited fans surrounding the Red Carpet waiting to get a glimpse of the cast !
I say Red carpet, it was actually grassed as you walked towards the cinema ! With bare branches and trees leaning in as if to create a spooky forest ! Fallen leaves scattered the grass and crows peered down from the trees!


Members of the Cast started to arrive and were all interviewed infront of their adoring fans !




My favourite dress has to go to Charlize Theron!! She looked absolutely stunning in her floor length sheer Dior Gown! Slicked back hair and beautiful smokey eye make up! Gorgeous !


After walking the Carpet we took our seats ready for the film to begin!
Armed with a supply of sweets we watched on as the cast were introduced onto the stage. After a brief introduction, Snow White and the Huntsman began ..............



I won't spoil it for anyone, just make sure you get to see it !! ; )
Released in UK cinemas from 1st June 2012!


Lots of Love

Sing 4 England and raise money for Marie Curie!

"We're England fans, come on and sing for En...gaaaa.... Land!!!!"

So only one of us is English and neither of us like football, but even we have to admit that the new charity single for the Euro 2012 is catchy.

Mcasso digital's 12th man records have released the charity single with footies favourite Chris Kamara ft Joe Public!

The record is "Unbelievable" (any footie fans out there will recognise Kammy's catchphrase) and all of Kammy's proceeds from the dong are going to Marie Curie Cancer Care, which makes it even better in our eyes!!!

Kammy said
"Everyone involved in making Sing 4 England have been brilliant in supporting the charity by donating a percentage of their proceeds to them too."

On May 19th Kammy will be performing the song live on Sky Sports Soccer AM ( tune in we sure will be.)

We know that footie season is normally the time when men and women are separated by their love of the game. But we say that everyone should get together and support the single.

Let's get Kammy to No. 1!!!

Red Carpet














We often dream of strutting down the Red Carpet in a gorgeous dress and fabulous heels, but the closest we have ever been to one is watching it on the tele.


This all changed on 15th April when we got EVEN closer to the Red Carpet! (Note we said closer, not on it). We headed down to Covent Garden armed with a camera to check out the stars arriving on the red carpet for the Olivier Awards, and learnt a few things about "Red Carpet do's and don't's" - ready for when we get the chance to walk down one!


1. Do keep your head up and look at the crowds (so many celebs came past with their heads down.)


2.Don't wear Skyscraper heels if  you can't walk in them. Nearly stacking it on the red carpet = NOT COOL!


3. Do wear good underwear, pulling a wedgie out your butt on the Red Carpet is a NO, NO!


4. Do think through your accessories, we saw so many ladies that had over looked the coat and ended up just putting one on that really didn't look "Red Carpet ready".


5. Don't turn up late, there is nothing worse than rushing up the Red Carpet!


We saw lots of stars and got very excited (even if we were a little bit rubbish at spotting them at the start.)  Take a peek at our pictures of some of the stars, but please don't steal them!


Lots of Love

Grand Design Live.

We were very lucky girls this weekend, because thanks to Marie Curie (http://www.mariecurie.org.uk/) we got to go to the Grand Designs Live Show.


Grand Designs Live is a giant adult play ground, full of goodies for your home and garden. We had a ball roaming the Excel Centre finding all of our favourite things.


Here are a few of our favourite finds from the day:


The Chocolatier - A niche by Aneesh (we loved their tagline) (http://www.the-chocolatier.co.uk/) Chocolate that is cream, butter, egg and gelatine free but tastes amazing! We tried a bit of the salted caramel and bannana chocolate and it was amazing!


The kitchen section - we dreamed about cabinets and cool gadgets for a kitchen that we don't own. We also made friends with salesman Phil and enjoyed telling him all that was wrong with his kitchen display (they were storing tins in their fridge -who does that??)


The TV section was pretty cool, and definately a section for boys it was full of men trying to convince their other halves that a projector screen was just what they needed for their living room.


Loopy Lisa Fudge was another favourite (we spent a lot of time in the food section) her fudge is amazing we bought the Vanilla Fudge and ate it all before we got home!!! http://www.loopylisasfudge.co.uk/


J's Personal Favourite.
My personal favourite stand was "The Games Room Company". I love playing arcade games and I absolutely adore jukeboxes so this stand was my favourite. It had an amazing Jukebox that came with an iPod docking station too which means you can play your fav tunes along with the classics! I am definately saving my pennies to get one - just need to get a bigger flat!! (http://www.gamesroomcompany.com/)


T's Personal Favourite.
I absolutely loved the girly stand by the company "By Dusk". Beautiful Wallpaper, bed headboards, light features and hanging gems and jewels! My favourite piece has to be the heart shaped mirror you can see in the picture with the ruffled rim!! Gorgeous !!! Perfect for any room to complete a feature wall!

Thanks once again to Marie Curie we had a brilliant day!


Lots of Love

The Search for the Perfect Pouch!!

I have NEVER in my life struggled with this topic !! Purchasing a new Bag!! It seems so unimagineable, that something that comes so naturally to me, is causing me such a drama!! I honestly own so many Handbags, I could open my own boutique.


However this isn't just any bag, later this year it will accompany me on a trip around America! Now we're not talking Luggage here (got that bit sorted!)
I need a new shoulder Bag !


Must haves:
A long strap to go right across the body.
Big enough to hold my SLR Camera and my Documents.
However definitely a day bag( not too big)
Must be a reasonable price.


So Last week I paid a little trip Eastpak Icon Store, No.1 Carnaby Street London.
They did not disappoint !!!
I found the perfect bag, the Delegate MM Pink! What a dream, loads of room inside, extra compartments, great design and colours, plus a 30 year warranty !

Unfortunately the only problem for me is the cost! Its way above my budget!
At £55.00 should I stretch that far or go for a cheaper option ?
So im asking all you girls and guys out there who already own an Eastpak item for your views!
Are you a happy customer?
Are you happy with the quality of your bag?
Should I just go ahead and get it?
Let me know what you think, however for now the search continues.........
Check out Eastpak and their fabulous bags at http://www.eastpak.com/uk-en/
