Barbie/Hello Kitty - yes! Dame Edna - fail!

In the past Mac collaborated with Barbie & it was a success, the new Hello Kitty collection looks fantastic but the latest…Dame Edna collection? Sorry but no. it looks awful & cheap in fact the first time I heard about the collection I thought it was a joke but alas it’s a reality. Launching in January the collection will include lipstick/lipglass/royal tour eye trio/wisteria eye trio/hi-light powder & a nail laquer..while it might seem like a nice collection but it looks too cheap - the red glasses..yuck, the purple just doesn’t work either - the only palatable part of the whole collection is the laquer. With the Hello Kitty collection launching soon after this I doubt many people will pounce on this one, in a word - fail.

Best DVD deal of the year

As a serious shopaholic I always go out of my way to look for the best deals & bargains out there & thought most times that only accounts for fashion its not always so, today for instance I saw one of the best DVD deals ever. Everyone has seen at least one of the Alien films after all they are some of the best sci-fi movies ever made & unless you have been living under a rock for the last 10 years you will also know there a series of predator movies too. Over the last few years the Alien movies have been sold in different box-sets for various prices, recently too the 2 alien vs. predator movies have also been sold in box-sets but today in HMV I picked up not only all 4 alien movies but the 2 avp movies & the 2 predator movies for only 20 euro, though I did have most of them already I would have to say it’s the best DVD bargain I have ever seen & it’s a perfect opportunity for anyone who wants all the movies at a very affordable price, they can be purchased on the HMV website too.

Several facehugger specimens escape, planting eggs down the throats of a hunter and his son.

Bras for xmas (my personal picks)

Just a small overview of some of the bras in stores now for Christmas. I left out the prices because many of the stores are selling stock at various prices. The only problem I personally had was trying to find a matching pair of knickers to go with the Lise Charmel "Fantasme a Deux" bra, in the end I had to buy the bra in one shop & the knickers in another. If you are thinking about getting any of the ones mentioned then make sure you check first that they have the complete set. The prices I think are affordable enough & you really do get what you pay for in comfort & style.
