Hot men alert!

Ok so Holly at DollyMix184 tagged all her followers to do 'The List'. In typical Ross from Friends style, I can never stick to just 5. I thought long and hard about these so here you go. (By the way, if my boyfriend reads this- I wouldn't actually cheat on you with these men- it's just for fun lol)
In no order-
GERARD BUTLER
His accent just gets me. I first saw him in The Phantom of the Opera, and my love of musicals combined with my love of a sexy young man playing phantom sparked my obsession. Even with his deformed phantom face i wanted him and also screamed at the TV that Christine should pick him and not the sissy boy she marries. The phantoms love for you is real Christine!! Bitch.
ED WESTWICK
I've already done a post expressing my lust for this man so i don't think anymore needs to be said. Check out the post here
JACK BLACK
Theres something about Jack Black- something sexy. I know he isn't conventionally good looking but i quite like that. He would also make me laugh tons. I dunno what it is- i've liked him for years. I wanna big cuddle for him then to go eat a burger and milkshake.


PAUL RUDD
Oh how i love him. He is just so cute and funny. I love him in everything i see him in and he never takes himself too seriously. Even in Clueless i liked him. Little did we know he would become a huge star.


PATRICK SWAYZE
For now and forever. I remember watching Dirty Dancing as a little girl and loving him (as did my mum and every other mum in ther 80's) Even now he is lovely looking. I cried when i heard he had cancer but thankfully he is recovering well. He is a fighter and he won't give up. I love that about him. Given only 6 months to live- he is still here now and filming for TV i hear. Good on ya!!! You still hold the hearts of millions of women and everyone wishes you well

So thats it folks, a little unconventional in places but thats me. I'm not going to tag anyone but just hope other people do this. Its fun : )
Much love

Maybelline!


Hey everyone,

Who is going to Maybelline? I didn't think i would be able to because of work but i've begged people and yey! Sorted.

I was wondering what time trains people are getting etc?

Just got the conformation email and its 4- 7! Quite late. Whats the plan? Really don't wanna travel all that way alone. I will have to get a few trains (or drive to York) but my train can either go through York or Leeds. Either really.
Does anyone wanna travel with me?

I can't wait to see all of you at the event. I'm super excited.

Much love

Clothes swaps! AMAZING

STOP PRESS!
I found a new obsession!!!

During these hard times, I've been looking around for more freebies and ways to save money. Well i was on freecycle (giving things away for free) and I came across Bigwardrobe.com

This site is AMAZING
www.bigwardrobe.com

Its essentially eBay but free.

'Bigwardrobe.com is the world's largest fashion recycling website. Browse over 50,000 pre-loved items which need a new home. Use it to swap things you don't wear for things you will. Turn your unwanted clothes, shoes and bags back into cash. Or, buy yourself a new-to-you outfit at a bargain price. It's fun, fashionable and environmentally friendly'

You list your items (free) and then other members make offers for them. These offers can be cash, swaps or a combo of both. The idea of the site is to be environmentally friendly so i guess swapping is the best idea. You can get a whole new wardrobe for free (essentially). Or purchase items from other members by making them a cash offer.

If you are one of those people who wears things once and then doesn't wear them again- get them listed on here. Its much better than eBay. I only found it a few days ago and have bought loads of things. I made some cheeky cash offers and some were accepted (wayhey)

I'm gonna upload my own clothes this week because i have tons of them and this is a much better idea than eBay as there is no listing fee and final fee. If you swap your item- its totally FREE (except postage to the member but you control that)

I'll do another post when my stuff are uploaded so you can browse but until then spread the word : )

Sorry if this is a bit jumbled. Its a mix of excitement and flu.

Much love
xx


P.S I'm sure you can't technically p.s on a blog but i don't care lol. Anyway they (bigwardrobe.com) are holding some swapping events this year and i was thinking of a blogger meet up at one? They are all over the UK- but the ones in York and Leeds are appealing to me- Message me about it if anyone is interested. Free clothes plus a day out with great bloggers

Boohoo Bargains

Boohoo have a huge sale on at the moment (which i think ends tomorrow) It's not somewhere I've shopped before to be honest as I much prefer ASOS.com. Boohoo sometimes seems a little, well tacky.

But anyway I placed an order about 3pm yesterday and it arrived this morning! What service for you! I picked up a few bits and pieces as I haven't been able to go shopping for a long time and I'm a bargain hunter. (I ONLY shop if there is a sale on- I kid you not)

So here are some of the bits i got

A lovely little dress! Its quite smart for work and has a bubble hem which is so cute. It was only £7


A shirt dress. I've been looking for one for ages and i fell in love with this when i saw someone else wearing it. I got it in turquoise although i really like this coral colour. I think it was £15 and it came with the little belt.

I got this jersey dress in blue (they have sold out and only have red left- hence the red pic today) It looks better in blue. Red doesn't really suit me that well. Plus it was only £8

And my fave- this tunic. I love the cute detail at the top, and it fits like a dream! Think it was £12 too.

I also got a belt but i can't find a pic of that and my camera is so far away lol

So those are my bargains for under £50

What do you think? Do you like my selections? Have you shopped at Boohoo before? How did you find it?
Lots of love

Happy Yorkshire Day!

Did everyone know it was Yorkshire Day?
No me neither, but apparently it is.

I was born in West Yorkshire and now live in North Yorkshire so I'm a true Yorkshire man! (ee by gum)

"On this day in 1759 our brave Yorkshire regiments left the battlefields of Germany and picked white flowers from the surrounding bushes as a tribute to their fallen pals.
Since then the White Rose has been the symbol of our great and glorious county and Yorkshire Day is celebrated every year to recognise how fantastic Yorkshire really is!"
(taken from Graduates Yorkshire)

Yey for Yorkshire, the biggest and best county in the UK! (preparing for some arguments on this : p)


Oh my

Oh my goodness. I love Ed Westwick.
At first he didn't bother me but after watching the extra bits on my GG box sex, i saw him talking with his English accent and OH MY GOD
So sexy!


I'm English too! What the hell is going on. Now when i look at him i see a sexy English guy. Maybe because before i saw him as asshole Chuck and now.... well now he is English and sexy and *drool*
More attainable because i know he is from England?
Sexier because i know he isn't chuck?
Does a London(ish) English accent do it for me?
No idea but I'm loving him.

Enough talking
