Francesca Lia Block is a total hero girl of mine.

She is the creator of my favourite character in all of fictionville, Weetzie Bat.

If you don’t know Weetzie, she’s a bleach blonde punk pixie who lives in LA. But she’s so much more than that too. She’s a total inspir-o girl. She has friends called Duck, Dirk and My Secret Agent Lover Man. But she’s still so much more than that too.

Her creator, Francesca Lia Block, is a sorceress of words, writing modern fairy tales with an edge. She has written a LOT of books, my favourites include: Girl Godess number 9, Violet and Claire and I was a Teenage Fairy, and if you hadn’t noticed yet, I heart FLB x 1000 which is why my belly is filled with flutterby excitement that she has come to play in the world o’ pink…

FLB, you are officially crowned Pink-world’s tiara-wearing, princess of storytelling!

Inspired by girl-group The Pipettes, 17 year old German girls Giulia and Jules, have plugged in their Casio keyboard, busted out some super-cute ensembles and got their pop girl on!

Their myspace is a coolio-a-go-go place of total fabulousity.

It’s the place to hear their 60’s-esque tunes that are perfect-o for room dancin’ and hairbrush singin’ and check out their cute-as-a-button dreamy pix of the girls lookin’ well wistful and every inch the popster!

I can’t speak German, but I can deffo speak pop-girl, which made conversing with these two polka-dot clad girls of cuteness a total breeze!

Amy Davis rocks my pink, stripy socks.

She appears in Think Pink because I love, love, love her - she’s a totes inspir-o girl with the sweetest, pink thinkin’ ‘tude.

She’s an art girl - what this girl can’t do with paper and felt tip pens, well, it simply isn’t worth knowing about, really, it isn’t.

She’s also a rock girl, and both her and her beau have got a total ‘School of Rock’ thing going on over in the US. I’m saving up right now for my air ticket…
In the mean time, as one of the most feisty, fun, fearless and fabulous girls in girlsville, I’ve asked her to spill her ten must-have, most-favourite things to YOU, it’s like a Pink Ladies public service…or something!

So…what’s rockin’ your world, Amy Davis?

I didn’t always heart Lily.

In fact, she used to make me mad. For sure, she’s super talented and I totally dig her style, but I don’t love girls who bad-mouth other girls, that sucks.

But last week, I read this over at Lily’s myspace:

“…I used to pride myself on being strong minded and not being some stupid girl obsessed with the way I look. I felt like it didn’t matter if I was a bit chubby, cause I’m not a model, I’m a singer. I’m afraid I am not strong and have fallen victim to the evil machine. I write to you in a sea of tears from my hotel bed in Seattle, I have spent the past hour researching gastric bypass surgery, and laser lipo suction…”
