Tom Cruise and his stunts. What more can I say? I’m excited as this evening we’re off as a family to watch the latest Mission Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part 1 on the very big screen at the Imax Cineworld in Leeds. Apparently it’s set a new box office record for its preview screenings on Tuesday - 7 million dollars!!
And then there’s the Barbie movie. Hyped as the movie of the Summer.
It’s like the world’s gone Barbie Pink Mad as well.
Did you know there’s even a trend called 'Barbiecore’. I love it.
My front door is currently pink 💗
And apparently Ken is the next big thing in fashion trends. Summer co-ords for our fellas beckoning? What do you reckon? I mean in reality Ken IS knocking on a bit isn’t he so it’s ageless style, right?
