Stylish Strawberries!

That's what you lot are. Gosh!

And so many of you!

The final decision was torturous, as the Big Ones always are (Should I cut my hair? Move to London? Turkey or tuna? Shadow or liner?) but as a wise school teacher once said to me, while everyone may deserve the prize, there can only be one winner.

Clearly she was a fool, as there are in fact two winners today.

(On the topic of winning, I have an OUTRAGEOUS  Missoni giveaway that'll be going up real soon. Did someone say "Get the new fragrance before anyone else in the country? And a Missoni beach towel?" They didn't? Oh. My apologies. Carry on.)

1. Miss "Trishy G" for her essay slash recipe. I think i maybe liked this one because it mirrored how I enter competitions: write so much that the judges are bound to find something they like. That she dropped her current mobile into the toilet over the weekend is inconsequential, if not hysterical and something I can personally relate to. Twice.

2. Telle, who is a very regular commenter (which is awesome but didn't influence my judging) and whose answer could be described as economical, but powerful. I much liked the simplicity of this:

Loving yourself. Letting that inner love shine. Turning that shine into outer fabulousness. Having faith, belief, pride in that outer fabulousness.

As I truly subscribe to inner shiny stuff and loving yourself. Cause if you don't have that, you don't got nuthin.

Notable mentions fly out to M., Kalah, Isabell, Zoe Pryor (little cutie), Kiddo, Lucinda King, and, well, most of you, actually. Again, please do not all start up your own bogs.

As neither wordsmith left their email, they'll need to contact me to get their Hot New Nokia 6300. Mmmm, 3600...

Thanks again to the Nokia People for this lovely giveaway.
Because True Style Never Shouts, it simply writes what it wants to say on a blogging comments form.

 

Nestling Nectarines! Fruity's got Nokias to give away!

Yes, I know it's not make up, but what good is a freshly-painted mug and a ravishing mane of hair if you've no mobile phone to call up your friends/take photos of your fine self/booty call like a demon. (I know what you get up to after a few Pina Coladas, young fruits.)

NO GOOD, is what it is.

And so Nokia, those fine phone friends of fruity, have kindly given me two telemophones to dish out to two lucky fruits. And what's up for grabs like a bouquet at a wedding? The Nokia 6300, that's what.

You know him, he's the sexy little black and silver baby advertised under the banner 'True Style Never Shouts'. (Even though personally, I find a shouty pink lip can look quite fetching and stylish.)

He's got sweet stainless steel covers, a glossy black finish, a two megapixel camera with an 8x digi-zoom, (which is all Fruity uses on her Nokia N76 for her blog imagery), a music and video player, radio as well as email on the go, for all the high-flying businessy fruits. Or even the low-flying fruits who just like to download Rihanna and Akon ringtones a lot.

He's worth $449 and is hot, as That Twit in LA would say.

See?

What you need to do: Write a comment telling me what you think true style is by next Wednesday. It's probably the easiest way to get a new phone. Other than stealing one. Which I don't condone. Unless it was yours in the first place and you're stealing it back.

What I need to do: Thank the people that own this logo for being so dingin' cool and generous.

Revlon Topical Fruit winners! Wheeeeee!

Oooh! I feel like Fruity Claus (less beard; more mascara) being able to award each of these clever little fruits half a G's worth of Revlon's Limited Edition Collection for their make-up inspired band band names!

Before I announce the winning entries can I just touch on my new obsession in this range? Good, I hoped you'd let me. It's Bare It All Lustrous lotion (in peachy tease), which you need to know is:

• Revlon's new Skinlights... because as many of you have alerted me in hysteric tones, SkinLights is gone.
• A beautiful, creamy liquid illuminator, perfect for mixing with foundation for a lovely, J.Lo esque all over glow, or for patting onto cheek bones and under brow bones.
• The stuff I was talking about the other day, Acacia.

But now..  the Topical Fruit winners!
