Ashton Kutcher was a guest on US talk show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and it appears the Two and a Half Men star has finally had enough of Charlie Sheen.

Ashton replaced Charlie as the show’s lead three years ago and since then, the Hot Shots actor has spoken extensively about the show, regularly tweeting his criticism of Ashton.

Charlie currently has his own show called Anger Management, but doesn’t seem to be able to let go of his Two and a Half Men past, so Ashton decided to call him out.

“I’m gonna public plea right now with Charlie,” he said, straight into the camera. “Dude, shut the f*ck up! Seriously. Enough already. It’s three years later and you’re still blowing me up on Twitter? Come on, dude. Really?”

Charlie, who’s not one stay quiet, took to Twitter shortly afterwards:

Eeek! Wonder what will happen next…

Kimonos are going to be our summer wardrobe staple – who wants a cardigan when you can have a kimono instead?

We’ve been eyeing them up for a while now, but have you looked outside lately? It’s clearly still Christmas jumper weather here.

The first kimono pictured is a full-length leopard print that we think is uh-mazing, find it at Boohoo.com.

The second is from Oasis and has a beautiful floral pattern on a darker background – perfect to brighten up any outfit!

We love the bright and feminine colours of this third kimono, so pretty! You can find this kimono by Alice & You on ASOS.

The final piece can also be found on ASOS by Kiss The Sky and has an absolutely stunning tribal elephant pattern which we actually may be obsessed with at the moment.

This morning, Samantha Mumba will be popping by the Damson Diner on South William Street to help Tayto unveil their brand new snack, Popcorners.

The unusual creation is a crisp made of popcorn that comes in two equally unusual flavours – Chilli & Lime or Spicy Cheese & Tomato.

Popcorners are created from popped corn, which is then baked; this mean they contain 57% less fat than your average crisps.

Definitely sounds interesting!

Nothing adds to an outfit like beautifully manicured nails – but waiting for them to dry can be particularly tedious, especially when you’re in a hurry.

Luckily for you ladies, we have the answers that you have be waiting so long for – how to make your nails dry quickly…

Plenty of thin layers
Go for a thin coat as a thick layer takes ages to dry. Just add layers to build up the colour but make sure each one is dry before putting more polish on it…

Bowl of ice anyone?
If you can bear the cold, dip your tips into a bowl of ice cold water.  You will need to wait about five minutes before doing it though – if you’re in a hurry, go straight to the freezer.

Go for the hairdryer
This has got to be the most effective way to make your nails dry faster and the most obvious one.

Say goodbye to smudges and smeared nails forever.

Ooh, words cannot describe how excited we are for this collection!

River Island are getting ready to launch their highly anticipated Design Forum collaboration with young and successful designer, Katie Eary.

The new collection will be launched during London Fashion Week on February 14th.

Ranging from €20-€150 there is something to suit everyone’s budget from vivacious colours and must-have accessories in a collection of eighteen pieces.

Katie has been described as a designer to watch and has even worked on Kanye West’s fashion label.

Katie says her inspiration for the collection came from a female version of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas: “Except in my story it wasn’t Johnny Depp, it was my muse (the strong woman) on a crazy hallucinatory journey through the desert.  I then went on to design looks for her while she was on this journey. It all became very ‘Tribal Dipped in Gold’.”

Dieters should brace themselves for 4:12pm as this is the time that they are most likely to crave unhealthy food.

According to a study carried out by Seasonal Berries, the biggest downfall for dieters is snacking on crisps, biscuits and chocolate.

Nutritionist Dora Walsh, founder of Nutriheal Nutrition Clinics, said: “Sticking to a diet for some people can be tricky, and understanding that 4.12pm is the time people crave sweet and unhealthy snacks means that you should be prepared for this so you don’t ruin a diet plan.”

During the afternoon, a person’s blood sugar can be particularly low which in turn causes you to crave sweets and unhealthy food. However, eating little and often throughout the day is the best way to overcome this.

Berries are a great food to stop cravings getting out of control as they are “naturally sweet” and can be “incorporated into recipes or eaten alone as a snack”.

So, on your next shop, head to the fruit aisle and avoid the sweets stand on your way.
