    The Lisa Ho Collection.

    Wow! These dresses are gorgeous. There's a whole rack of floral 1930s dresses, so lovely. The prices really are surprisingly low - that burgundy dress above that you like Miss Sis? $61. Jaw, meet floor.

    Confronting a Friend About Clothes

    You know, sometimes (especially as women) we are lead to believe that being confrontational or even just honest and direct equals being a b***h, made to feel unreasonable or guilty for setting simple - and very reasonable - boundaries. If someone makes you doubt yourself for your very reasonable...

    How tall are you, Ladies?

    Wow! Lots of taller ladies! I'm 5'1" and to be honest i have never liked being short. My sister is even shorter and loves it, i think it's a proportion issue (we have slightly different shapes). I have most trouble in the winter - being my height and shape, if i am dressed casually, add a...

    Quirky things that people have done 'in the day' that people would gasp at today..

    My grandmother was born in the 20's. Back then, women thought washing their hair while menstruating would somehow affect the head and make them go insane. So when bathing during their periods they'd wear a pot on their heads. I always laugh imagining my grandmother and her sisters bathing with...
