Being a girl is hard

Call me Captain Obvious, but I really have only recently realised that being a girl is bloody hard work.

I’m not even referring to anything to do with periods, childbirth, body image or wage inequality. Na. Forget all the bleeding and hormones and cushiony bits of our bodies and the fact that we still live in a world where a female CEO gives us an involuntary jab of the warm and fuzzies because one of our kind has been ‘given a chance’.

Actually, my issue with being a girl is trying to bloody look like one.

My favourite Golden Globes gown?

Yes, it is rather “Barbie goes to high school Prom” but I’m a complete sucker for anything of a purple hue.  Besides, about 90% of the Golden Globe dresses were either black or a boring nude colour.

And her hair, figure and makeup is looking pretty hot as well.  Definitely one of her better moments.

Talking of my love of the colour, this shade of purple is also scrumptious:

But I’m not so much feeling the transparent material, or Sandy’s hair and makeup.

Maybe I love it because she looks like a big bar of Cadbury’s Dairy Milk?

Mmmmm…. chocolate.

When celebrities pull stupid faces part 12,8593

Whenever J-Lo goes in front of the photographers she always does this stoned-out, slack jawed expression. It’s almost as irritating as Keira Knightley’s pout.  Why do celebrities pull such silly trademark faces?  The narrowed, sleepy eyes that look like they can’t take the weight of her fake eyelashes and the parted lips just begging for a stream of drool to emerge… not a good look.  She’s so much prettier when she smiles.
