Blooming ‘eck he’s done it!

I’m sorry to end the week on a sorrowful note ladies, but I have to inform you that we’ve lost one of our all-time favourites.

A few days ago we pondered as to how we could possibly transform ourselves into Vanessa Paradis to attract the attention of a Johnny Depp lookalike, and today we’re met with the news that his equally tasty co-star, Orlando Bloom, has gone and tied the knot. With his Australian underwear model girlfriend, no less (well, it was never likely to be Sharon, a bakery assistant from Swansea, now was it?)

Rumour has it, although details of the wedding have been very quiet and there are no photos to show you (probably just as well), the couple appear to have tied the knot in LA and are as we speak, honeymooning somewhere fabulous, no doubt. Our very best wishes to the happy couple…(what?)

Which leads me to ask the fateful question – who’s left on your “wish list”?

So in honour of both Mr Bloom and Mr Depp this week, I thought I’d feature some “pirate-themed” jewellery.

To start us off, how about these skull and crossbones earrings?

Perfect for either fancy dress or perhaps if you’re into the biker or gothlook, these silver studs have white enamel gaping eyes and loose hanging crossbones.- £2.99.

This unusual looking silver cuff has an Aztec design. We’ve all been trying to figure out what it is and to me, it looks like a cow’s skull! What do you think? Whatever it is, it’s certainly unique and is bound to draw attention.- £4.99.

And finally – even pirates can be glamorous sometimes!

This gorgeous silver skull and crossbones navel bananabell is decorated with multi tone diamantes. It’s hypoallergenic and is made from titanium surgical steel and is priced at £5.99.

I’m sure you’ll agree it’s an absolute “treasure trove” of fantastic, affordable accessories, sure to make any girl a “Pretty Polly!” Ok, I’ll stop now.

Have a great weekend, me hearties – and remember to use your time constructively. I would recommend putting together your wish list – and a foolproof strategy, right now!

Yo ho ho – and someone pass me that bottle of rum….
