    Do you go Commando?

    I'm not sure if it's related, but I used to work with Royal Marines, also called Commandos (in the UK at least), and they are notorious for not wearing underwear. In fact, the training establishment I worked at had daily orders (like a daily newsletter, also including orders) reminding them to...

    Best concealer?

    Thanks for the tips! I think I did try the L'Oreal one as well a while ago but remember not liking something about it, not sure what though?! I may try Clinique, as I used to love Clinique cleansers and foundation, but then discovered Chanel foundation and switched. Never tried their concealers...

    Best concealer?

    Sorry if this thread is a repeat, I did a search and nothing came up. I used to love Revlon Skinlights Illuminator wand, but it's been discontinued, and then I tried YSL Touche Eclat, but don't like it enough for the price. I have been trying the It Stick by Benefit, but find it too drying, and...

    Cold Cream- Brands and advice!

    Top Tip: Do not purchase fancy French cold cream in a slim blue and white tube. You might confuse it with toothpaste and not notice, until your face starts burning and smells a lot like spearmint. Not that this happened to me, it was a friend...;)

    Eye brow help

    I had that problem for years, mainly that brow pencils I tried looked weird and partially came off by the end of the day. For my wedding I bought Estee Lauder brow perfecting duo http://www.esteelauder.co.uk/templates/product/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT20968&PRODUCT_ID=PROD89443 in brunette...

    Show us your Horrockses dresses!

    I just need to share my pain with ladies who understand :) My inlaws got us tickets to see Ricky Gervais in London, so I nagged my husband to go early and see the Horrockses exhibition. Of course we got stuck in terrible traffic and had to take the tube for nearly an hour. Last admission is at...

    Slips!

    Well, I have been watching Van Raalte slips for a while now, and most of them that look exactly like this one have a BIN of $25-$40, often they sell for a lot cheaper. There are NOS ones you can get cheaper, so I'm baffled. Miss Hannah, yes, even distinguishing between 80s nylon and earlier...

    Slips!

    Could someone please explain this to me? Why did it sell for so high? I was watching the auction in disbelief. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130426986553&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

    Whats in YOUR winter wardrobe??

    I'd like to know as well! I tried on a beautiful brown 40's coat in a vintage shop today, but the seller wanted £200 for it which I don't have. I tried Ebay and Etsy, but it looks like slim pickings at the moment.

    Paris fashion advice..thankyou

    Is it this one? If so, it's lovely! http://www.phase-eight.co.uk/fcp/product/warehouse/Dresses/Sasha-Dress/201089600 Also, don't be worried about wearing colour, I wore bright colours and no one blinked. I also didn't see a single French woman in a trench coat, even though I was looking out for it.

    Inappropriate-ness

    Well, apparently we are depriving our parents of grandchildren, ourselves of future company when we are old, we don't spend our time and money on raising the next generation, we only care about material things and we will never know what true love is because we have not had a baby. Apparently...

    Slips!

    I have always wanted to know how to date a slip? Is it the material, details, lace? I see them in charity shops but can never ever tell what decade they are from.

    Inappropriate-ness

    Wow, I'm so glad I'm not alone. On honeymoon two years ago I was standing around in a babydoll beach cover-up/dress and a man trying to get tourists to ride horses on the beach approached me, but then shook his head and made a pregnant belly motion and said I wasn't allowed to do it and walked...
