Leap Year

'Leap Year,' the latest romantic movie set in Ireland and starring redhead Amy Adams, has received the most horrendous reviews since 'Year One.' The plot was unbearably predictable (I guessed pretty much all the lines before they were uttered) and the snail pace beginning left me bored and confused.


However the minute Leap Year arrived in Ireland, despite all the expected visual gags and turns, I couldn't help but become filled with a deep redhead longing to live upstairs in a Pub and amongst Ireland's breathtaking rustic beauty. I loved the cozy bed and breakfasts, the rocky terrains, and actor Matthew Goode's surly but brogue-ishly handsome 'Declan' was a pleasure to look at and listen to. Made me want to run around and outfit every man on the street in wooly jumpers (British speak for sweaters) and brown corduroy trousers....

My MANy Bags News #187

Below: Guess who is Noah Mills playing in the upcoming 'Sex And The City 2' movie? :-P

Noah Mills To Play Love Interest In Sex And The City 2

Noah Mills follows the footsteps of Jon Kortajarena (in Tom Ford's 'A Single Man') and Boyd Holbrook (in 'MILK'), as he transcends from model spokesperson of fashion names such as Dolce & Gabbana and Michael Kors, to acting on the big screen with the role of Samantha's love interest in the upcoming Sex and The City 2 movie. Guess who his character is related to the original cast... the irritable, bitchy Charlotte's wedding planner, Anthony's brother named Nicky! Surprise surprise!

"He's a real New Yorker, a construction worker, blue-collar guy," Mills describes. "My first film experience is this role, so that was a little intimidating; they've worked together for so long." He has at least two scenes — a "speaking scene" and "a potentially more awkward scene," as Mills put it — the latter, a love scene with Kim Cattrall's Samantha.

Below: So it seemed, pricing like this of € 6727.50 for a tank top, is here to stay for Balmain...

No Lower Priced Line For Balmain...

A piece of good or bad news depending on which side of the 'Balmainia' are you on:-) Balmain has clarified the rumours of the new affordable diffusion line, Blue Label.

"There is no Balmain lower priced line," a spokesperson told VOGUE.COM today. "What I think you might be referring to is a capsule collection that was prepared for some Parisian retailers. Christophe Decarnin wasn't involved in that project. The brand has decided to not repeat the experience, preferring to concentrate all its efforts on the mainline."

Rejoice at the exclusivity of your Balmain investment or feel sad about the loss of opportunity to buy into a more affordable Balmain line, I think loyal fans of the brand will have a hard time deciding. One thing's for sure, astronomical pricing is here to stay.

Lanvin Pompon PM Cabas Tote

This Cherise Red nylon and ribbon pom pom tote by Lanvin is nothing short of amazingly pretty, frilly, and flirty, and of course I am in love with the red and pink colors. My love for Lanvin's designs runs very deep, but $1,435.00 for nylon and ribbon? I know, I know, we're paying that much to look Parisian chic, and that's priceless!

Ask most men whether tattoos on women are sexy or not and you will get a mixture of answers. It is certainly not as easy as getting a yes or no answer. In reality, you are either for tattoos or you are not. If you are, then whether or not they are sexy will depend upon a couple of important factors. First, are they appropriate for the person involved? And second, are they partly hidden and discreet leaving something for the imagination? Research done on this topic indicates that most men are more likely to be turned on by an elegant, well placed tattoo rather than an endless display of "body" art where it is hard to see any untouched skin at all.
