I Feel Pretty Review
Yesterday I went to see the new Amy Schumer movie, I Feel Pretty. I have seen the trailer so many times, and loving her first film Trainwreck I couldn’t wait to see what all the fuss was about. The movie is about Renee (Amy Schumer) who is so uncomfortable with her appearance she takes the…

Sunglasses Indoors… Miranda Priestly or Try-Hard?
I recently just bought a new pair of sunglasses, and I think I’m in LOVE. Now, I think my new love is blinding me (I know it’s definitely not the sun now…) because I have the need to wear them ALL of the time, even indoors which I know makes me immediately uncool. Of course,…
It’s Time Lois Lane Took Centre Stage
(Pictures Sourced from Google) Lois Lane first appeared in the DC Superman comics in the 1930’s. Back then she was the hard-hitting journalist that despite her Pulitzer prize winning status, was still reduced to just ‘Superman’s girlfriend, Lois Lane’.
