Advantages: it was a light entertaining chick flick Disadvantages: average
...I read a few reviews on 27 dresses saying that it is an average film or it is a good film. When I saw the DVD in Tesco for a few pounds (2-3 as I remember) so I decided to buy it and give it a go. I wasn?t expected a drama I knew it will be a chick flick so I just enjoyed the development of the film.

Review of 27 Dresses (DVD)
...27 Dresses is a 2008 romantic comedy, starring Katherine Heigl and James Marsden, and was directed by Anne Fletcher. Jane has always been the bridesmaid and never the bride, she?s obsessed with weddings and has in fact been a bridesmaid 27 times, hence the title of the film. When she?s attending two different weddings on the same night, she bumps into Kevin, a cynic who manages to write the most romantic weddings at the same time. At the same time, she?s hopelessly in love with her boss, then her sister arrives back in town and somehow is engaged to her boss within the month. Jane is shocked, how will she ever win over George now? And how will things go with Kevin? What will her 28th dress be?
The cast is good, but nothing special. Katherine Heigl plays Jane, the main character in the film who?s looking for love but finds it somewhere...

Review of 27 Dresses (DVD)
Advantages: Good storyline , James Marsden, funny Disadvantages: NONE!
...I recently saw 27 dresses at the cinema and thought it was a really good movie. It's the best movie I've seen in a long time. When I first saw the adverts for it , and read the reviews in magazines , I knew it would be a good film. I was glad I was right too , because my predictions of the last movie I'd seen , St Trinians was wrong - I thought it looked good , but it turned out to be an awful film in my opinion. However I am not here to review St Trinians , I am here to review 27 dresses. So here we go....

Review of 27 Dresses (DVD)
Advantages: Easy viewing Disadvantages: Not a laugh out loud comedy, predictable.
...I watched this film last night after renting it from Lovefilm.com. A number of people I knew who had seen it had suggested that it was very funny and worth watching, so I thought I would get in on the act ans see what all the fuss was about.
27 Dresses is a romantic comedy which is directed by Anne Fletcher and written by Aline Brosh McKenna. Mckenna was also screenwriter for the Devil Wears Prada, which led me to expect an equally good film in 27 Dresses.
The film has a 12A rating and was released in January 2008. Running time is approximately 110 minutes.
***The Cast***
Katherine Heigl as 'constant bridesmaid' - Jane Nichols
James Marsden as ' wedding journalist' - Malcolm Kevin Doyle
Malin Akerman as ' Jane's sister' - Tess Nichols
Edward Burns as 'Jane's boss' - George
***The plot***

Review of 27 Dresses (DVD)
Advantages: Leaves a lovely finish on the skin. Disadvantages: Price for some people I suppose.
...?Well Dressed? is one of my staple blushes from Mac and I always have one in use. This is a great blush for everyday use because it is a subtle colour, giving a hint of pink to the cheeks, so it can compliment most make up styles. ?Well Dressed? is a pale pink, if you swipe your finger over the pressed powder then you get a small covering on pink, which is great because it means this is not at all overpowering on the cheeks. In fact I think it is practically impossible to mess the application of this blush up! This is a slight shimmer blush, when you move it in the light you can see some specs of sparkle, I?m hesitant to call it glitter because it is too fine, however it is important to note that this gives the blusher a slight light catching ability when being worn. Again this is not at all overpowering.
When applying this blush I use...
Advantages: Very popular with young children Disadvantages: No lift-the-flap opportunities
...Maisy is a sweet little white mouse, with a pink tail, nose, ears and paws.
She isn't a 'regular' sort of mouse as she wears clothes, sleeps in a bed, brushes her teet and much, much more!
The books in this series really appeal to young children, as Maisy does everything that they can relate to.
~ The story ~
Not surprisingly, this book is all about Maisy dressing up, a pastime that is very popular with pre-school children.
The story begins with Maisy receiving an invitation to her friend's fancy dress party. Not sure as to what to wear, she looks in her dressing up box where there are lots of options: a pirate, a queen, a king or a firefighter.
The problem is that she knows her friends are wearing these costumes so she decides to make a special costume.
When she gets to the party the reader then realises that Maisy...
...Brio short curved tracks.
My grandson has had his Brio train set for several years now. We bought it for him for his 3rd Christmas. We have added several pieces to it since. This set of 4 pieces of short curved rail is very useful.
Each of these wooden curves measure 3 ½ inches long width 1 ½. You will need 4 of these sets to make a circle. These tracks are ideal to add to a train set they will give you the ability to turn corners will add more interest to a set.
This train track is double sided
There are grooves for the train to run smoothly on. Each piece will fit into the next with a male and female connector a bit like a jigsaw
Brio is made from Beech or Birch wood, this wood are free from toxic chemicals was grown not using insecticides. These 4 pieces of track should last a long time they are very strong
Brio...
..."Adult" meaning "grown up" rather than "porn" .... although as I'm sure GR-Design will tell us, it could have some uses there too :p
I only really use moisturizer in winter, the time when the least amount of skin possible is on show. I’m not particularly strange, though, it’s more to do with the fact that the sun tan lotion and aftersun I apply look after my skin – both figuratively and literally – in the summer months. Right now thought it’s November, and since I don’t live down under, than means it’s winter.
For years I used the white Johnsons baby lotion as an every day moisturizer. Then one day, shortly before a birthday (I think it was my 15th) I became obsessed with the idea of trying the pink variety. It was something to do with the gorgeous actress they had advertising it, waffling...

Review of Johnsons Baby Lotion
Advantages: Moisturising, I like the smell Disadvantages: I turned orange once afer using it! No directions on back of bottle
...and the gorgeous tan it gives you when you wear it. I saw that it was only about £1.99 in the shop so decided why not buy it.
My first experience of trying out Johnsons Holiday Skin Body Lotion
That night I covered my arms and legs in what I thought was an even layer of the lotion. There are no directions for use on the back of the bottle I own (I'm not sure if it's the same for all bottles). My sister and friend were right about it smelling really nice. But were they right about the gorgeous tan? I had to wait until the next morning to find out. I put my pjamas on and feeling slightly moist, because the tan hadn't absorbed too well, went to bed.
When I dressed the next morning I discovered my white pjamas were slightly orange - the lotion had turned them this colour. My legs were notically more orange but it hadn't made that much...
