Looking for capri's
I'm on the hunt for a pair of capri's. (trying to think spring!) I've googled them on-line but I'm not having any luck finding anything that matches the image in my mind. I want them to be beige-ish...fall just below my knees and to have slits on the hems. Any ladies have recommendations?- Heather

Dusting powder
I'm curious about using dusting powder. Is this mainly a warm weather tradition? Is it strictly for after a bath or is also for after showering? I always use lotion after a shower but the idea of using a powder puff to apply powder just sounds so elegant! *swoon* ;) -
