The Liebster Award

I've not had my blog up and running for long and I've been lucky enough to be nominated by two friends, fellow bloggers and tweeters The Brunette Says who is on Twitter as @Lianne84 and Stilettosstarsandrocknroll also on Twitter as @jakstweet for The Liebster Award! Here is some information on the award.........

The Liebster Award is given to new, up and coming blogs who have less than 200 followers. Awards like these are a fantastic way to spread the word about new blogs who may be struggling to make their name amongst other blogs.
Liebster is German for dearest, kindest, sweetest, lovely, valued, endearing and welcome. Sweet, huh?
We all know that blogging is all about sharing, connecting and building a community. And these kind of awards are a great way to help promote smaller blogs, and to get to know the person behind the blog.
There are of course some rules, these are as follows…
1. Show your appreciation by linking back to the person who nominated you.
2. List 11 facts about yourself.
3. Answer the 11 questions given to you by the person who nominated you.
4. Nominate another 11 blogs, preferably with less than 200 followers, to pass the award on to.
5. Compile 11 questions for your nominees to answer.
6. Notify the bloggers you have nominated.





To be honest, I didn't know whether anyone would read my blog but I've had over 250 views since I started it! I suppose I better give you the 11 facts about me.

1. I'm an identical twin.

2. My biggest fear is Baked Beans.

3. I am 50% deaf and will soon have to wear a hearing aid.

4. Olly Murs is my ideal man and I'm fortunate enough for him to follow me on Twitter.

5. I have a amazing boyfriend called Chris and a beautiful baby girl called Lucie Paige.

6. I support Arsenal even though their form the last few seasons has been shocking.

7. I'm beyond obsessed with musical theatre.

8. My favourite Disney character is Clucky from Robin Hood! (she's the fat chicken that is Maid Marion's best friend) LOL

9. I once got so annoyed with my technology teacher at school for having a go at me that to get her back I ATE someone's GCSE chocolate cake and was threatened with suspension. My sister took the blame for me.

10. My role model is Samantha Jones from Sex and the City.

11. I'm a size 16 and proud of it.

My 11 Question Interview…
1 – What do you like most about blogging?
I like knowing that people are actually reading my blog as it keeps me focused to carry on with it. My attention span is shocking, but I'm enjoying what I have written so far and can't wait to continue.


2- How did you come up with your blog name?
 I wanted the name to be something a bit cute and that was the 1st thing that popped into my head.

3 – Favourite beauty product so far this year?
My MAC lipstick in MYTH (a must have!)

4 – Last book you read?
I don't have an interest in books at all! I don't have the patience for it! So i'll go with a magazine which was HEAT!

5 – Camping or 5* Hotel?
I'd only say camping if it was at VFest! Otherwise it'd have to be 5*

6 – Have you been to any blog events/meet ups yet?
 I haven't but I've seen some blog posts about events my friends have been to and they look great!

7 – Favourite online shopping site?
ASOS

8 – Favourite quote?
Everything that comes out of Samantha Jones' mouth on Sex and the City

9 – Does anyone inspire you?
Not really, I kind of inspire myself. If you're not ambitious then i'd say life would be pretty dull.

10 – Favourite meal you like to cook?
 I love cooking but at the moment I have to say my Fajitas are the winner!

11 – Name something you like about the person who nominated you.
I've known Lianne for many years and she's a great girl and an absolute laugh to go on nights out with! Especially in London!! Jaki I've met through Twitter and she's a lovely girl too with a gorgeous little boy!
