Everyone else has put it better than I could, but I'll just add- wear what you love and enjoy yourself without worrying about labels. No one is ever going to 'agree' on a label for you - through anonymous and bitchy comments on my blog, I've been accused of being both a purist snob, and a total...

I would probably go for a more subtle red than my usual pillarbox if I was going for an important interview in a corporate environment. While there's a lot to be said for just 'being yourself', if it's something you really, really want, and you're even remotely worried about whether bright red...

Since I'm guessing you aren't planning to pair them with a purple rinse perm, then you are just going to be the same gorgeous you, in vintage glasses! Just get a less pointy pair - dead mens spex has some lovely, slightly subtler ones at the moment :)

I'm wearing high waisted leggings and a Scott Pilgrim tshirt, as I've just got in from yoga class. Not exactly my best! lol

I don't know anyone who *didn't* watch it - maybe we just discussed it too much over on FB ;) They apparently cut some of the inheritance story out for the US market, seems pointless as not many Brits would know the ins and outs of it all these days anyway!

I look very pale and corpselike without blusher. I use Bourjois Rose Ambre, which smells like old ladies and has apparently been around since the 40s! Which isn't why I use it, but is nice to know.

Depends on what you consider recent. Red-haired kids were being made fun of when I was in primary school, over 20 years ago and it wasn't a new thing then! I have always loved red hair though, probably because my first ever crush was on a boy who had vivid, carrot-orange locks!

No, no worries. None of the natural redheads I know get stick in London. One of my friends even dyes her hair a very natural ginger/red, and gets admiring remarks (if any). I have no idea where the ginger-bashing comes from, but it seems to be pretty universal.

It's definitely a UK thing. Redheads are admired in the US, mercilessly teased here.

Ginger prejudice is the last one seen as perfectly acceptable, and it makes me sad. My last chap was ginger, and I actually asked him once if he got much hassle at school. He looked at me like I was a total mentalist and said, 'Literally. Every. Single. Day'. I have a bit of a thing for...

This is EXACTLY what I meant when I said I never dress down. I think I read the question differently to some... I practically live in casual 40s repro trousers and equally casual tops - blouses, tshirts and knitwear, and certainly wear a housedress almost every day of the week in summer. But...

I never dress down - it's not in my nature! :cool: lol

ASOS styled the Miss L Fire booties really weirdly. I think they look better in their own photos - I just love mine and have worn them every day for a fortnight! Old lady slippers in shoe form! :D

I have these too, in tan, and I'm a size 10US and I think they look adorable on! Funny how subjective some things are - but I adore mine, big feet or no!

I am registered with an extras agency, and they have so far asked me 5 times if I'd like to be put forward for Captain America, 5 times I've said yes, and 5 times the production team have turned me down! Given that I actually look 1940s in my agency picture, I can only assume they think I'd be a...
