Red Lipstick
If you could class my make up style, most of the time I am a "smokey dark eyes and nude/pink/peach lips" kinda girl - BUT I am going to try out the famous red lippy.
I have seen celebs/movie stars/models wear/friends wear it and I'm really keen to give it a go.
I just worry that I will look like a 80's hooker...
If you go to a make up store there are, like, a million different colours of red lipstick! How do I know which one to choose? darker or lighter red? Cool or warm? Glossy or matte?
I also need to consider the other make up on my face. I cant mix red lippy with bright blue eyeshadow (haha... eeww) I think I need to keep eyes VERY basic - also need a flawless face of foundation.
I have brown eyes and blonde hair and I'm almost always tanned.
Here are some lovely ladies who (I think) do it right...

Ryan Kwanten leaves the Playboy Mansion a 'happy man'
Former Home and Away actor turned Hollywood star Ryan Kwanten has confessed he's had the pleasure of visiting the Playboy Mansion's grotto and will die a "happy man."
Hugh Hefner's grotto is reportedly renowned for wild and intimate clothes-free parties, where inhibitions are left at the door.
We caught up with the True Blood star yesterday during his whirlwind Sydney visit to promote the Telstra T-Box.
The 33-year-old has taken America by storm with his portrayal of Jason Stackhouse, a ladies' man in the high-rating TV series shown on Foxtel in Australia and HBO in the US.
You also played this type of role as Vinnie in Home and Away. Has this helped you off screen with the girls?
At times, but then I also live vicariously through Jason, as he gets a lot more than your average man.
We would too.
Most importantly tell us about the Playboy Mansion parties.
I've had the pleasure of visiting Hef's mansion a few times and did a tour down to the grotto. I wouldn't touch the water though. Who knows what's swimming in there? At least I've seen the grotto and can die a happy man.
What are the American chicks like compared to Aussie girls?
American girls have more attitude, but once you put on the Aussie accent thicker — it calms them. Nothing beats a good conversation with an Australian girl and I'm looking forward to chatting to a few young ladies during my stay.
Nice one. Why are girls around the world going crazy over vampires at the moment?
Some girls like to think vampires are different and they represent that kind of mystery. The difference of True Blood is that it has so many layers and subtext and it's not just a vampire show.
It seems you've become more popular than a free sausage sizzle at Bunnings. Got a stalker yet?
Yeah, she's not the threatening type yet, but she's a lingerer. She's become a leader of this fan group and has sent me many promiscuous things that aren't even suitable to name on your site.
They say American beer is like having sex on a boat, as it's so close to water. Do you agree?
Haha, I've never heard that phrase and I'm going to steal it. I agree, but it beats drinking nothing. I do miss the good Aussie beers, but beggars can't be choosers.
Good call. It seems a lot of Home and Away actors serve their apprenticeship in Summer Bay, before making the transition to fame and fortune in Hollywood.
Home and Away was a steep learning curve and being surrounded by talented actors like Ray Meagher was inspiring. It was nice to find a place where my acting could grow and grow.
Do you somehow miss Alf calling you a flaming galah?
I wouldn't mind it every now and then to keep me in line. I've stayed in contact with Ray and I was really happy to see a good fella like him win a Gold Logie.
Do you sometimes hang out at a Santa Monica diner with other former Home and Away stars such as Chris Hemsworth and Isabel Lucas, order milkshakes and reminisce about the good-old times?
That's all we do and talk about. We have renamed a couple of places the Bayside Diner and we'll go into character and visit these spots. I usually put on a Hawaiian shirt and do my hair for an hour beforehand.
When you first arrived in LA, you rode your pushie to auditions. How did you survive in Tinseltown?
I bought a $30 push bike from a garage sale and I would also catch local buses. I barely had any money and was originally supposed to be there for only three days. I convinced the Cadillic Hotel owner, who was also Aussie, to let me stay for three months. He put me in the storeroom and I paid him gradually once I found acting work.
Where's the strangest place you have been recognised?
I came out of this crappy little gym after some boxing training and there were six or seven paparazzi dudes waiting to get a pic. They were lucky they didn't get jumped, due to the infamous suburb.
What are you filming at the moment?
We just wrapped up season three of True Blood and I'm about to play a mechanic who's into heavy metal in a movie that's similar to Shaun of the Dead.

Winter
It's cold, well here in Australia it's cold (not as cold as NZ though) haha :P
In my spare time I like to get outside but when it's winter I usually feel like staying inside but this can get BORING. So, what are some fun ideas for a winter inside - and sometimes outside?
Get your girlfriends together and have a Slumber Party! Pillow fight! Jammies, beanies and ugh boots. Make some hot chocolate with marshmallows and watch a girlie movie or new episodes of The Hills.

- Have a jewellery/lingerie/"adult toy" party and mix up some creamy cocktails.
- Invite your main squeeze to rug up on couch with a hot pasta meal and watch a romantic comedy or scary movie.
- Choose a romantic restaurant with a fireplace for dinner or just snuggle up with a mug of hot chocolate or pizza.
- Take advantage of the snow season and go sledding, skiing, or just make a snowman. Snowball fight!
- Warm up with a hot stone massage and spend ample time with your honey in the steam room.
- Set up a tent in your front room, sit in the tent and eat dinner on a blanket, build a fake fire, or roast marshmallows over a candle.
- Wii Olympics - get a group together and have a competition using Wii Sports.
- Volunteer together at the local animal shelter.
- Check out the latest IMAX movies and 3D movies.
- Have a cookie-baking contest YUMMM
- Make Tee Shirts. Start with some blank white or collared tees, then get creative with sharpies and paint.

Bridesmaids
Last week on Wednesday night I had a fun girlie catch up and I got asked "have you picked your bridesmaids yet?" I've actually been asked that several times and I haven't made a decision yet - but I think I need to.
I have a great group of friends here and some really special people in NZ too. I want to have 10 girls haha but I think I will have 3 or 4... or 5! It's my wedding so I make the rules ;)
I love all my friends equally and they are all really different and amazing and I just don't know how I am meant to choose a few girls as I don't want anyone to be offended.
I've had advice like, the bridesmaids are going to be in all your wedding photos, they should be your longest friends, they should be your best friends at the time, they should be people who you will still be friends with later in life, they should be your sisters, they should be the best looking, they should be this and that and so on.
Should they be my sisters? Should they be my longest friends? What about new friends?
They should be the girls that are going to touch up my make up with out thinking about it and adjust my dress if it's not right.
I also need to consider the meaning. Sure, it's fun to include my friend because she throws a heck of a party, but if her morals are less than appealing, remember the meaning of a bridesmaid. She is there to stand with me and my future husband at the alter as a witness to our vows. She is committing to supporting my marriage through the good times and bad. I don't need a bridesmaid who will try to hook you up with my cousin the first time me and my new husband have an argument.
I also have the task of finding the right style and colour of dress I want them to wear that will suit them and also match the theme of the wedding. Girls say "I dont want to look like a merang" and "I dont wear pink"
I might do different styles of dresses but in the same colour? Long or short?
I would never put my girls in ugly dresses haha I want them to look HOT!!!
It's a massive privaledge to be part of the bridal party and I know the friends I choose will be perfect.

Movie Review: The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus
I'm not really a "TV" kind of person, almost every show bores me shitless and nothing interestes me AT ALL. All this NCIS CSI Maimi New York LA bla bla bla Law shows Police shows. Or its drama like Home and Away or The Good Wife... yawn.
I LIKE MOVIES!!! When I lived in Hamilton I think I watched almost every dvd in the local store haha.
Last night we chose to watch The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus.
Purely because it was a new release and when I saw Heathy Ledger I just had to see it. May his soul rest in peace.
So what is the movie about? In exchange for extraordinary powers, Dr. Parnassus (Plummer) makes a deal with the Devil to turn over any child of his when they turn sixteen. But as his daughter Valentina's (Lily Cole) birthday approaches, a mysterious stranger (Ledger) arrives with the power to change everything.
The father has a stage show where they all perform and there is a mirror where people go through. Once through the mirror, there is the imagination. Each person has a different experience - It's beyond amazing. It's beyond beautiful. I cant even begin to describe it. The storey is awesome and I loved all 122 minutes of it!!!
Sadly, Heath Ledger died a few years ago. His character was played by Johnny Depp
Jude Law
I admit it was really sad watching Heath Ledger as he was such a talented actor and it's such a shame and such a huge loss to the world. At the start of the movie when they all find him he is hanging by a rope around his neck under a bridge. Weird.

and Colin Farrell
who were all amazing as well! I cant get over how beautiful Lily Cole is! She is STUNNING!!!I admit it was really sad watching Heath Ledger as he was such a talented actor and it's such a shame and such a huge loss to the world.

The movie is pretty twisted! But it's wicked and I highly recommend it.
Have you seen it? What did you think? Check out the trailer here...
