    The Evidence of Old Lovers - Keep or Destroy?

    I keep a large box full of mementos and letters, but I have in the past gotten bitten by a spring cleaning bug and tossed out things I wish I wouldn't have. The stuff from my ex-husband I put in a box in the garage. I thought about throwing it away, but haven't gotten the nerve up yet...

    VintageGoth?

    I used to work at a gothic/industrial nightclub. I almost peed my pajama pants when I came across "I am a frond of seaweed," although I've seen all the rest as well. I am a frond of seaweed. Priceless!lol lol lol

    any old-school housewives??

    Being a SAHM is a daydream of mine. But then I wake up and realize that my ex-husband left me with the mortgage. Grrr. Men! :rage: Honestly, I don't know though. I love my son so much it hurts to look at him sleeping sometimes. I think about spending time with him all day and it seems...

    Lush Life

    My friend bought a brick of henna while we were there. I'll let her know the horror :) As for the smell, it's strong, but since the one by me is in the Macy's, it's situated right in with all the perfume and makeup counters, which is pretty much overwhelming anyway. A couple of their...

    Lush Life

    I found a great store this weekend called Lush. it's been around for awhile, but they put a store in a Macy's near me so I finally got to go and browse. I thought some of you ladies and even gents might like it. They have bath bombs, bars that crumble into bubble bath, bar shampoos, lotions...

    Spray Tans?

    I had a spray tan done and I was worried about being orange because it was before my wedding, so I went for the lightest color. It really looked no different when it was done, except for where it had gotten on my feet, hands and fingernails. Apparently I didn't put enough of the blocking stuff...

    Favourite Scents

    I got the new Sephora catalog and one of the sample scents just jumped right out at me. It's called Vivara by Emilio Pucci. I don't know why I like it so much, but it just smells fresh and clean to me.

    show us your lippy

    It honestly depends on the saleswoman. I usually take things into my own hands and try them all on with a friend there to give me the thumbs up or thumbs down. That's how i found my Russian Red :) One thing about MAC is that they supply makeup remover and tissues so you can fully take off the...

    Who can't wear lipstick?

    I agree with those who mentioned Burt's Bees. The stuff is wonderful. I used to be a lipstick addict, but I find as I get older, I prefer lighter stuff on my lips. Also, I agree with Miss Hannah. Everyone can look good in lipstick. You just have to find the right shade and texture for...

    Thinking back, what album of 07 really left its mark on you?

    I don't know when it was released, but I bought the Killers' last album, based solely on one song: Read My Mind. The video set in Japan was one of the best. Just watching them dance with the little schoolkids made me smile, and every time I heard the song, I did a little happy dance in my car...

    What men think of women's hairdo's

    My hair used to be long and straight, naturally, but after chemo it grew in curly. I actually really like the length it's at now (right past my shoulders) and the curl allows me to do really nice pageboys that stay in. That's my favorite easy hairdo. Pin curls are so time consuming, as are...

    It's magic....

    I somehow ended up with the graduation booklet from a technical college in the 1920's. There was hardly anyone, maybe 10 men in each group, who learned mechanical engineering and chemical engineering, etc. The book was bound in leather (my college graduation booklet was on plain ole paper and...

    How to get pale, luminous skin?

    I know that skin lightening creams are all the rage in Japan, because everyone wants that porcelin doll look. A lot of the ones in use there are making their way to the states, but I'm not sure of any specific names. At least you'd have the luxury of knowing they'd been tested on a thousand...

    Vintage/Retro themed bars, clubs, hotels? Share pictures and reviews!

    This is from the Carew Tower in Cincinnati. They have a great restaurant called the Palm Court inside the Hilton which is attached to the building. The building was built in 1929 and has some great examples of art deco work on it's first 3 floors (they ran out of money and did the rest of them...
