Carmine Giovinazzo

Carmine Giovinazzo  Born 24 August 1973  Actor/Singer/Musician

Carmine has striking features and the first thing I noticed about him were his ice blue eyes.

Carmine is always great to watch as Danny in CSI:NY and his character underwent quite a few changes in terms of appearance.  He didn't wear his jackets anymore for a long while and he stopped wearing glasses.  Carmine preferred contacts.  But he looks stunning in his suits.
I think glasses gave him that edge.  Not only is he sweet and compassionate but he's an established singer/musician too with his own band, Ceesau.  Through his band he raises awareness of everyone in the world being one and he also has other charitable causes he's a part of.
His style is uniquely Carmine and he looks totally hot however he dresses.  That hat looks exceptional on him.  He's one guy who I have liked since I first saw him and he is so incredibly generous and handsome, but so down-to-earth and the guy next-door we'd all want to have as a neighbour!  Check out his music too!

Tom Welling

Tom Welling  Born 26 April 1977  Actor

Isn't Tom just the best guy ever.  Smart, sexy, down to earth, no wonder his looks earned him so much adoration and got him started as a model!
Oh love this pic but what's he doing stuck in a tyre with that alluring look: there's only room for one in there!  Tom said he wanted to be a model since it would allow him to portray and express an array of emotions and boy does he express.
His gorgeous blue eyes are so tantalizing and he's just a classy, casual, stylish super hunk (!)  Who is amazing in black.  Tom auditioned for the part in Supernatural but was selected for Smallville instead and it was an excellent choice.  As Clarkie he was cool, thrilling and so sweet, yet breath-takingly strong.
Here's Tom as we haven't ogled , I mean seen, him before, that stubble giving him that cute rugged look.
Tom isn't the run of the mill celeb, he hates interviews, understandable, and he once said  he "doesn't want to be a celebrity for the sake of being a celebrity."  Ah so handsome, intelligent and so modest too.  We can't ask for more.

James Gardner

James Gardner  Born 14 February  TV Presenter/Sports Fanatic/DJ/Up & Coming Comedian

You might recall James as presenter on defunct sports channel Setanta and he's moved on to present at Sit Up Channels (Bid, Pricedrop, SpeedAuction).
Love his casual style of presenting and he does have that cool, modelling look down pat.  Love his soft spoken Scottish accent and he's a bit of a ladies man. Dressed to impress and perfection in his suit on TV, I have a penchant for the purple tie.

James likes his 'daddy' cardigans too as I call them.  All styles look good on him.

But he also loves his football and boxing!  So watch out gals cos these may be his first loves!  Me thinks he'll go far and why wouldn't he being such a sweet, lovable guy and being born on the most romantic day of the year.
James is now back on Pricedrop.

Colin Firth

Colin Firth  Born 10 September 1960  Actor

No need to mention the show that brought Colin to the attention of millions of women all over the world, swooning in their corsets! If they still wore those. Why yes, it's the Mr Darcy.
Of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice fame.  That's one character he will always be typecast as and perhaps deservedly so.  It's the one where be garnered heartthrob status! He even played the same named role in Bridget Jones's Diary.
Oh so handsome in black and that mesmerizing faraway look.  He would have made a charismatic James Bond I think and you know what he played royalty too as George VI in The King's Speech. Who could forget him in Mamma Mia!
Everyone has to have such a pose in their resume and he cuts a handsome figure in purple, so stylish and my fave colour too!  Costume pieces, or body rippers I should say, modern, traditional all suit him to a 'T.'

He supports many important causes, including the environment and he has his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Now that scene when he emerges from the swim in Pride and Prejudice wet shirt 'n' all will be etched on our minds permanently.  Forever Mr Darcy!

James D'Arcy

James D'Arcy  Born 24 August 1975  Actor

Oh he's got a great name, could go around calling him "Mr D'Arcy" all day, perhaps he should have got to play that most famous and iconic role in Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.  Let's face it, he's got the looks, the accent and looks great in a costume piece.
My first encounter with James was in The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby where he played the title role and boy was he good.  He scrubs up nicely in his dashing outfit! Looking dishy there.  Also in Agatha Christie's Moving Finger, Poirot the Mystery of the Blue Train and other costume dramas such as Jane Austen's Mansfield Park. 
He looks gorge in modern attire too and he even went on to play the part of royalty as Edward VIII in W.E. How's that for a career which has spanned many years.
Seems like blue appears to be his colour and he's able to pull off any style with ease and still manage to look totally suave.  Can't take my eyes off him!

Benedict Cumberbatch

Benedict Cumberbatch  Born 19 July 1976  Actor

Everyone knows him as Sherlock Homes and those who didn't know him before this unbeatable and excellent series now do, so you've got absolutely no excuses not to admire this amiable actor.
We've come to know him with his trademark scarf and coat, which he wears well, but he's not into stuffy ties as Sherlock.  More the black jacketed suit, giving him an air of  casual deceit. His dress sense doesn't mean he's not on board with his prowess to solve the unsolvable as the world's greatest detective.  Together with his adorable natural 'posh' accent, one he got whilst he was educated at Harrow; makes him sound so sexy and stand out from the crowd.

I first saw Benedict in Agatha Christie's Marple: Murder is Easy where he played handsome, sleuthing Luke Fitzwilliam.  Though he's been in plenty of TV, films, plays and radio.  Have to mention his high cheekbones.
Hats are in as an essential style accessory and he looks very suave here.  Though personally I don't really like his blond hair, but to each his own as they say.
He delivers a striking pose in casual jumper too, proving he can get away with just about any sort of fashion ensemble and his 'heterochromia' blue, gold and green eyes are a perfect match to this grey.  Oh to top it all off, he rides a motorbike! And yes he really did ride the horse in the movie War Horse, though he hadn't ridden one since he was 12.

Benedict is every woman's dream man on and off screen!  Polite, well-educated, intelligent and to me he is one beautiful man!

Mark Harmon

Mark Harmon  Born 2 September 1951  Actor

Mark Harmon is just one of those great guys who has been around as long as I can remember and I don't mean that in a horrible way.  I could call him one of my childhood icons.  Another blue eyed gorgeous guy who I first saw in 240-Robert where he played Thib and was out saving lives back then. We all fell in love with him.

Hey anyone looks great in black but Mark looks particularly sexy and every man should have a black shirt or jumper in their wardrobe, especially if they have lovely blue eyes.  Oh eyes hey mentioned those already!

You know some people don't recall Mark as Fielding Carlisle in Flamingo Road. Mark is not only an excellent actor but he also sings and boy does he sing.  He sang in 240-Robert, a song called Saddle My Dreams, which he actually did in his career and his personal life too.
Here he is looking particularly suave and stylish in a suit and tie and I have to say black seems to be his colour definitely.  So he went on to St Elsewhere and played a plastic surgeon and lots of other shows and films.  Until he landed that one role that was destined for him, everyone's fave former Marine and we all love a man in uniform; and NCIS agent, Leroy Jethro Gibbs.  Well no one will forget him now.
Just about everyone loves Mark, he's caring, kind, handsome and does so much for charity and others, with a heart so big there's no end to his talents and compassion.  I for one am so glad he graced my TV screen!
