Ladies, don’t say I don’t love you. In fact, I am raging with jealousy as I type this – I have a huge gift for one very lucky winner! Since the Twilight makeup post was so popular here and pretty much everyone is in love with Edward Cullen, my giveaway is the BB Dakota jacket (appropriately named ‘Bella Jacket‘) that Kristen Stewart wears in the movie.
This giveaway is kindly sponsored by Chickdowntown.com (follow them on Twitter and be a fan on Facebook!) and we love them for it. Contest open to US readers only, sorry about that! Or if you’re not – get a friend from the US to help out! We just need a US post address to enter.
How to enter:
It’s very simple to enter, all you have to do is leave a comment answering this question:
What would your perfect guy (your ‘Edward’) be like?
Here’s my answer: My Edward would have a heart of gold, share my taste in music and give me massages every night!
I’ll choose one great answer and then email the winner! So when you leave your comment, please leave an e-mail address you actually check.
Good luck, girls! :D
Update: The winner! Congratulations to Jenna, comment #3. I’ll explain why I chose her – every time I’m asked who my ‘dream man’ is, I constantly answer that he does not exist anyway so there is no use talking about it! I decided that the first answer that is along the lines of my ‘it’s hopeless’ outlook would win – my little way of giving hope, I guess ;) Thanks to everyone who entered, I loved reading your comments! Oh yes – and I hope everyone does find their Edward! :)
When I first heard about Twitter I declared I disliked it, like all other social networking sites. I’m a very private person (and paranoid) so I’ve always thought they were really scary!
However, I think Twitter is a great idea overall, so I’ve set up an account, and it’s slowly sucking me in… I blame the bird. Look at him, he’s too cute. I’ve named him Robin, just like the bird living outside my window who wakes me up at 5am. I call him Robin because he’s robbin’ my sleep, get it?! :-P
OK, not funny … Anyway, I’m still trying to figure everything out, so if you have a Twitter account, feel free to follow me: @rlorentzen and we can chat!
(Also, if I ever write stuff like “got my ingrown toenail pulled out, saved it in a jar” or something equally weird, please tell me off. I’ve already read some very strange things over there!)
Guess who’s mug is on the front page of MattFlies.com? Matt Langford is a popular blogger and has an awesome blog on tech, news, sarcasm and much more. He recently interviewed me and it was really fun! He asked some really great questions and I think he would make a great journalist.
You can check out the interview here: She’s beautyfool: Interview with Renee of Beautyfool.net.
Matt’s a really cool guy, so please leave him super nice comments and tell him he’s beautyfool too. ;) Let me know what you think and if you have any other questions about blogging, etc, I’ll be happy to answer them.
Hope you enjoy our interview – see you there! :)
Happy Mother’s Day, everyone. I hope you are treating the lady in your life extra special today… My mom gets a grumpy daughter with an ear infection this year! :)
To all the moms out there, we love you. You have the hardest job in the world!
(Here’s my mom and I ages ago on holiday. Mom would always make us pose together, we have the most ridiculous photos! She really knows how to work a pose, no? Love you Mom!)
I can’t believe my little blog is a year old! So much has happened…!
In case you haven’t notice, BF has had a facelift (at one years old? What a drama queen!). I have no experience or knowledge of HTML and all that business so it has taken me at least a full month to try to figure this “look” out, so I really hope you like it.
Unfortunately I tried to finish everything for today but I just can’t do it – there’s so much more to do, so sorry it’s such a mess! I am home sick with an “internal ear virus” (I know, what?!) so I’ll be home fixing everything these next few days. It’s really funny, I’ve lost all my balance (apparently this “virus” goes into overdrive after you’ve been on a boat,) so I have prolonged sea sickness and the feeling of “rocking” and walking around all weird. When I sit down my upper body is kinda swaying – LOL! Really embarrassing! I went to the doctor today and as I was standing at the counter I started to lean to my right and fall down! Everyone must’ve thought I was mad!
Anyways, long story short I’m home sick so will try to get more stuff done around here – thanks so much to everyone who has been visiting my blog this past year, and all your comments and emails. It’s been so much fun, and I really appreciate it all. Hope you’ll stick around because I have many more plans for BF – here’s to another year! :)
xxxx Renee
P.S. Another thing I’m excited about is the “reply” feature in the comments. Now you don’t have to scroll down right to the bottom and reply to someone, hoping they can find you – you can just directly reply to it. :)
Happy Easter, everyone! Hope you and your family have a blessed one.
May you rejoice in His triumph on Easter and always!
I’ll be back Monday. :)
P.S. A friend sent me this photo, and I think it’s so beautiful so I had to post it. If you know who took these photos, please tell me so I can credit them properly. Thanks!
As far as I’m concerned, all the makeup tips in the world won’t help if you feel rotten inside (hehe, aren’t I philosophical today?)
So, I decided to add more ‘mind, body and spirit‘ posts here on Beauty Fool, and have added three new categories – Health and Fitness, Inspiration, and Happiness & Well-Being.
What do you think?
Don’t worry, there won’t be any “cuddle your inner child” business, just thought of adding more posts towards the ‘inner beauty’ aspect as well.
Suggestions and comments are welcomed and much appreciated! But Confucius says to be polite. :-P
Hello and welcome! I'm Renee and I created this site to combine my love for writing, the web, and of course all things beautiful. ;) You can find out more
