    Sarah Jessica Parker - New Fashion Line "Bitten"

    I haven't seen the line yet (planning on going this weekend) but I assume it will not be the best made cuz of the price and all. I don't mind so much, especially since my 38Ds are hard to fit into "regular" shirts. Any store with plus sizes makes me smile. Anyhow, it is her first launch so...

    Coral Pink Lipstick, anyone?

    Oh MAC is totally reasonable. They last so long! Ohhh.... and do yall know about the buy-back thing? You turn in 6 pieces/containers and you get a free lipstick or eye shadow. Its their recycling program for packaging (check the site for details). Thats how I got my new lippy. I always...

    The Price of Thrift

    Wow... really? Well I have really good luck in goodwills and thrift stores. Not always actual vintage but vintage inspired. Or really good daily wear that can be flaired up with a vintage piece. I get deals all the time. I'd say 90% of my wardrobe is from goodwill/thrift store. Especially...

    Coral Pink Lipstick, anyone?

    :offtopic: Too funny... so hubby and I are finishing the kitchen updates. I had a decorator lady come in to "do the colors" when we moved in. She helped to pick the colors for the rooms so they would all flow. Like if I said I wanted a green color she would help me pick from the hundreds...

    Coral Pink Lipstick, anyone?

    Oh nuts... I missed you by a day! I was gonna tell you that you sooooo inspired me to get a coral. After I read your post I was thinking it was FOREVER since I had a coral lippy. I got MAC Jest. Its a Lustre shade that is "Pink Glazed With Golden Coral". I looked up Eager. It is also...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    :offtopic: Its not so much they won't "let me". I was in my internship doing clinical rotations and it was suggested that I tone down the sexyness of my outfits so that I would be taken "seriously". Mind you, I was wearing a wrap dress (that was wrapped all the way), with no slit, to my...

    Appropriate Dress to Wear As Wedding Guest. Black? Red?

    Obviously its a summer wedding right? So think summer cocktail dress. Color wise... soft summer colors. Pastels in a print would be pretty. Sexy-ish dress is ok as long as you bring a shawl or jacket to wear during the church. And don't forget you gloves!

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    OK... so I don't normally wear red during the day. Yeah, I know. But I got an evaluation a while back during my clinical rotations about my red lips being "a little too much for the work place" especially when paired with my typical 3 inch heels. Geezz.. as if I was husband hunting. Hey, I'm...

    Favourite Scents

    Gotta try Lemon Sugar from Fresh (I get it at Sephora). Its light, sweet, and refreshing. I adore it and it comes off very soft for hot weather. And I live in Texas so its always hot weather here.

    Motherhood & the Vintage Lifestyle

    I'll post pics when I'm done but I've got a really good idea of what its gonna be. I love the quilt. Super inspiration! We are setting the room up for two kids (one baby and one not). We are only planning to adopt 1 girl but I told hubby we have to be open to the baby having a big sister...

    Motherhood & the Vintage Lifestyle

    Hey, they have a sock monkey crib set. Well, too bad I'm Miss Thrifty. I'll post later about my nursery/kids room. Ya'll will be amazed at my creativity. I'm actually gonna sew my bumper and comforter stuff and just use plain sheets. I got sock monkey fabric on ebay.

    Motherhood & the Vintage Lifestyle

    Glad to see this thread. Hubby and I are going to start the adoption process soon. We were going to go to China but then we decided to stick to domestic (sounds like I'm buying a car huh?). Anyways, I dress with a nod to vintage. No era in particular, especially since I am a curvy yet...

    To wax or not to wax ????

    You know... thats the big reason I love waxing the bikini area. I don't consider the regrowth "stuble" cuz its really smooth. I call is a shadow (cute huh?) cuz the hair grows and you get enough lenth to wax again but it is lighter, lays down smoothly, and is smooth. Rock on! Thats the best...

    To wax or not to wax ????

    Good lord!! I'm Hispanic with serious dark hair and lots of hair. I always tease hubby that it would be easier for me to be dipped in wax once a month and then start pulling. I'm all about the wax. I've been doing it for years that it doesn't hurt me at all. Eyes and upper lip are easy...

    Perfect foundation/face powder

    I use Clinique too but I use the 2-step. I don't care for thier mosturizes so I use Oil of Olay (better price too). I had to step down from the toner they suggested. I have oily skin but hardly ever break out (don't hit me) so I use the #3. Plus I got flakes when I used #4. I use MAC...

    Ring around the washing machine...

    no problems. Yeah, the baby wipes work great, so does the tissue off thing. I find that the cosmetic that sticks more than others, and is mostly responsible for ugly towels, is the eye makeup. Mascara, liner, etc. So I usually use eye make-up remover before I cold cream my face. That way...

    Oh the Stigma with wearing seamed fully fashioned stockings!

    FYI... We had to wear "whites" for Sorority rituals like inductions and such. The "whites" were white semi-formal attire, white shoes, and white hosery even if you were wearing a suit. I, being wise and older than most of my sisters, always bought a few packages at a time because white hose...
