    *Snoods*

    Snood lover I totally love snoods, but have been unable to find them anywhere in Canada. Alyssa Milano wore them in the TV show Charmed quite a bit. I have found a few places on the net that sells them, I think a few that I found where through the powder room come to think of it. Good prices...

    Vintage Shoes Payless

    Hi all This thread is funny, I just bought a pair of shoes at Payless yesterday and was going to post about it today. They are a little kitten heel in black snakeskin/crocodile sort of pattern on them and they have a peep toe and a bow that goes across the top of the shoe. Sounds wierd but...

    Vintage Manicures

    Hey JBD I meant to tell you that one of the reasons why you might find that they make your nails peel is that they have Acetone or Alcohol in them. Always try to find the polishes and removers without acetone if you can. Also, O.P.I. is a nail lacquer and not a polish, which is why it tends to...

    What's on your Christmas list?

    I to am cursed with the December birthday. Mine is on the 11th and my brother's is on the 20th, so not only were we screwed for 2 great presents but we always ended up sharing our parties. That's why I wanted to institute the unbirthday on June 11th, so I could get and do better stuff. My list...

    Cologne and perfume

    Oh I totally agree with you VargasGirl. I think that Chanel NO.5 just stinks!!! I worked as a perfume rep and could never figure out why so many people liked that smell so much. One little piece of info on it that most people do not know is that Coco Chanel never even created it. She had her...

    What is your personal 'No-No' for makeup, hair, & wardrobe?

    I have to agree about staying out of the sun, with my irish complexion, I fry to a crisp in a very short amount of time. As to the trousers thing, I think that Canada Doll was just making a joke about how a good majority of young men now adays like to wear pants that are a couple of sizes to big...

    Just to let anyone who likes Dita know, she is on the cover of one of the magazines that is out right now. I bought it last night and for the life of me I can't remember what ithe name of the magazine is. She is wearing a beautiful burgundy velvet dress and looks amazing. She also has her nails...

    Do you have a nickname?

    Well, the one that has stuck the most would be "Monkey" short for monkey toes since I have been able to pick things up with my toes since I was little. My real name is Odette and I have had a few nicknames that have nothing to do with it except that they have O's in the word, such as Omlette...
