The Deal with Red Hair

Posted on by

I’m obsessed with red hair. You must have seen me mention it somewhere, sometime.

If you ask me why I like red hair, I don’t even have a clue on how to answer that. Red hair makes a girl so lively and makes her stand out. A quirky personality is always tied with redheads. They are fun, they are artistic, they are lovely, they stand out in a crowd of dull brunettes and overrated blonds.

Here are some of the red heads I’ve come to love:

Hayley Williams of Paramore

There’s so much to love about Hayley other than her awesome signature red hair. She’s down-to-earth, despite her fame and talent. She’s fun and adorable. She’s just lovable, ’nuff said. If a girl can understand why guys find another girl so appealing, then that girl is truly amazing and attractive. And I understand it completely. She’s absolutely the best.

Felicia Day

Felicia Day is of course from the epic gaming web series The Guild. She writes the script for the infectious web series and is an avid gamer. She’s just awesome. Yet another example of redheads being fun and creative. Click here to follow her on Twitter

You can also watch this music video from the season 4 of The Guild. Seriously love her hair in this vid!

Isla Fisher

Funny how I only notice Isla Fisher and her lovely red hair yesterday when I watched The Pleasure of Your Company yesterday on TV. I only came across the movie when channel surfing. Loved her in the movie, so adorable she is! Weird how I never noticed her before this, when I absolutely loved her in Confessions of a Shopaholic!

Amy Adams

How could anyone not love Amy Adams after watching Enchanted? Red heads make such fine princesses (plus she had McDreamy), which brings me to our next redhead:

Ariel, the little mermaid

She’s my favourite Disney princess. She’s (here we go again), adorable. Of all the Disney princesses, she’s the only one not stifled and rigid. Plus, she has the best hair. Obviously. The other princesses has blonde, black or brown hair – which is boring, boring and boring.

I’ve always thought that my love for red hair is developed over recent years. But a few days back, when I came across a picture of Kim Possible while surfing, I realized that I’ve had a liking for redheads for many, many years – without really realizing it.

Kim Possible was possibly my favourite cartoon on Disney Channel years back. At that time, I just thought she’s a kick-ass chick with really nice hair. But looking back, I think it was the start of my love for red hair. I just didn’t know it yet.

Blonds certainly do not have more fun than everybody else. It’s the redheads, for the win.

Confessions of a Shopaholic

Posted on by

I’ve been looking forward to watch this movie for months! I’ve read all the books in the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella – a series that every girl should read at some point of her life.

So it was a real treat when (technically) yesterday, we went to watch the movie. It was welcoming because:

1) I have been highly emotionally irritated the entire day
2) I was having cramps
3) FP had been feeling down so it was for the best watching a funny movie.

My verdict?

It was a really pleasant movie to watch despite the fact that they didn’t follow the book at all. I didn’t even mind that because the essence of Becky Bloomwood is still there. And honestly, a chick flick like this can hold its own fort without following the book too much.

And the most important part of the book and the entire series (besides Becky of course) was Luke Brendon.

I remember clearly how the entire cinema was gasping when Luke came to the screen. I remember gasping as well while FP looked around confused as to why all the girls were gasping. Hahahaha. Why did we all gasp? Because Luke Brendon is THE guy.

I’ve imagine Luke Brendon a thousand times when I read the books. It isn’t hard really, because he is such a joy to imagine. He’s the closest thing we have to a perfect “normal guy” who might just turn out real.

(Edward Cullen is perfect too, but he’s a vampire so that strikes out all chances of him turning out to be real).

But Luke, might just exist somewhere in this world. And that’s why it makes it easy and fun to imagine what he’s like. :P

And truth be told, what I saw in the movie wasn’t at all how I imagined Luke Brendon to be. And believe me, I’ve imagined countless of times – just like every girl who has read the series ;)

The Luke in this movie is still handsome in a scruffy way. Good looking in his own special way. Scruffy is good but it’s just not how I’ve always imagined him.

I’ve always imagines Luke to be:

1) really, really clean cut (me likey)
2) has dark brown/black hair that is NOT unruly.
3) always neatly and impeccably dressed
4) drop dead gorgeous in every sense of the word

Someone like… (let me think)

Luke Wilson

or

Adrian Brody

But anyways, the essence of Luke was very much in the movie. Like I said, he was still good looking in his own special way – just not the way I imagined him to be.

Hehe. Overall, an enjoyable movie to watch :)
