I got tagged!

Hey all.  I've been tagged by the lovely Chloe at Not From Concentrate to answer a few questions.  Here goes! 

1. What is your favourite fashion magazine?

Probably In Style, although I often pick up random magazines.  I'm a sucker for the freebies

2. Who is your favourite singer/band?

It's the fabulous PJ Harvey.  I love her music so much it's so raw and heartfelt.  I've been to see her about 5 or 6 times and she's always great.

3. Who is your favourite youtube guru?

Definitely Carah Amelie - she's brilliant

4. What is your favourite makeup product?

A very good concealer.

5. Where would you like to live?

I live where I'm living now (in Bristol obviously).  I've always wanted to live in a windswept Cornish cottage on the coast somewhere, and I used to live in Brighton when I was a student and loved it there too.

6. What is your favourite film?

This is too difficult to answer - I've got really random taste in films.  I love war films, disaster films, romantic films, comedies, thrillers - the list goes on!

7. How many pairs of shoes do you own?

I reckon about 30!!!

8. What is your favourite colour?

I wear a lot of black, but I also love hot pink, purples and lilacs, teals, plums, loads really!  

I'm supposed to tag two other bloggers, so I tag:

Sparklz & Shine 
So full of twilight dreams that glitter

Here's another pic of PJ Harvey, this time with the dashing Nick Cave!  I should do a style icon post on her (and him)!

8 Questions Tag!

I've been tagged by the fab Nicoletta with 8 questions.  Thank you very much!  Here are my answers:

1. What's your favourite ice cream flavour?

Definitely Vanilla!  Especially real vanilla with the little pods in it!

2. How many times have you really been in love?

Only properly once - with my lovely boyfriend - we've been together for over 10 years now.  Before him, only crushes!

3. Favourite body lotion?

Either Palmers Coco Butter or The Sanctuary Body Lotion.  Both smell fab, are great moisturisers and I love them!  I couldn't chose between them!

4. Do you believe in spirits/ ghosts?

Rationally, I don't, but in reality, I totally believe in ghosts!  I've never seen one, but I can scare myself silly watching Most Haunted, or looking at ghostly photos on the internet.  I love anything mysterious or ghostly.

5. Whats your favourite drink? Alcoholic or soft drink?

My favourite alcoholic drink is probably wine, and my favourite soft drink is orange juice, and also I'm a coffee fiend!

6. Do you have a big family?

Yes!  I've got a brother and two sister, and 6 neices and nephews!  And that's not counting my boyfriend's family - he is also one of four kids, so that's a lot of Christmas presents for everyone!

7. Did you have a nickname at school?

Not one that stuck!  One girl called me Hammy for a term because she thought I looked like a hamster - I'm not sure why, because I don't!  I've also been called Cakey, Kitkat and Caprice at various times, but luckily they've never taken - a good thing because I hate all of them!

8. What 1 makeup/ skincare item are you lusting after?

At the moment, it's the YSL Manicure Couture Duo - I really want the gold and purple one! Or maybe the teal and purple one.  I can't decide!

And here are my questions:

1. What's your favourite every beauty product?

2. What animal was your first pet and what was it called?

3. What is your favourite type of exercise?

4. What's more important - lipstick or mascara?

5. How often do you get your hair cut?

6. What is your favourite makeup brand?

7. What's your favourite film?

8. Where would you like to go on your next holiday?

I tag all my fellow lovely blogger!  Feel free to answer my questions if they interest you!

Thanks for reading!  xx
