Movember

It's hard to believe but 2013 is coming to a close, Halloweens over and it's really starting to get colder and now its all about Christmas, November has always been the long boring in-between month, however in recent years its become more commonly known as Movember.
I thought that Movember was a relatively new concept however the phrase was first coined in 1999 (!!) in South Australia. Since then its come a long way and has raised both money and awareness. For those who don't know what it is (you must live under a rock) Movember basically involves males growing moustaches and facial hair for the whole of November in order to raise awareness for mens health issues such as prostate cancer and other cancers. This year even the Mr Men have got involved! (I kid you not)
We all know that men aren't as open as women when it comes to talking about bodily issues so Movember is a great way of tackling this problem. Its also a nice treat for us ladies. 
Worldwide the charity has raised over £100 million for mens charities, to find out more info or donate visit uk.movember.com. So what are you waiting for boys?!
Below are some of my favourite bearded men for you, I'd love it if you shared yours or if you have a beard yourself! (you can never have too much Billy Huxley)
