Random Friday Postings

3 posts in one day? Blimey, I’m spoiling you!

This is really just a collection of random housekeeping things I’m afraid, not much interesting.

Firstly I wanted to remind you that if you love me at all you can, perhaps, you know, just if you’re not doing anything, pop over to the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards before the end of July and nominate me in the Fashion & Style category. No pressure, but it’s here if you fancy making up something nice about me. You don’t even have to mean it, but, y’know, it’d be lovely if you did.

Secondly, and maybe more interesting to you, I’m running a little Friday Facebook Giveaway over on my Facebook page today. You’ll need to be a fan, but I have this lovely Bettie Page clutch and a a Maybelline lipstick in my favourite shade eternal flame to giveaway. It’s black patent with a little picture of Bettie Page in the corner and a handy little mirror in the top for redoing your lippy on the go.

The last thing I wanted to share is this video trailer for the new film Coco & Igor. It’s in my sidebar, but I think it looks so gorgeous I thought I’d share it here as well.

(P.S. I found this through a site that pays me a teeny amount of money for views in the UK. I only every pick up the videos I think are interesting, otherwise you’d have found yourself bombarded with ads for crisps all through the world cup, but if you don’t want me to earn 6 cents then don’t watch it!)

    Darn. I completely forgot to see Coco & Igor when it was on at the cinemas, here. Will have to wait for DVD, I suppose. ;]

    Have voted darling and posted also to see if I win those goodies…

    Where did you get that bag anyway!?!?

      I had a few Bettie Page pieces, they were all new! I’ve given a few away already and this is the last one. Can’t remember where I got them now to be honest!

      There’s a few places you can buy them online. I’ve seen that clutch on eBay for about Ā£10 and I know http://www.ladylucksboutique.co.uk sells a red patent Bettie Page purse.

      Looks like it! I hadn’t heard of this one at all till I got the email alert about the video.

      It looks beautiful. I like eye candy!
