    Basic make-up

    Funnily enough, after i read your post i just had to go see if i could do a reasonable eyebrow. I have to add some definition to my eyebrows too, or else i just look very wan. I managed to pencil in a passable eyebrow with my left hand, holding the pencil nearly at the tip and using very small...

    Thanks love. The Italians god love 'em are largely quite provincial, excluding the masses that migrated, so there sside of the family was pretty easy. It also explains why most of my family are a bit barking!

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Thank you love. Yeah i'm a shoe-whore too, handbags, take 'em or leave 'em, but shoes......mmmmmm! Luckily being that i do sell vintage, i have an excuse to buy shoes i will never wear as they are too small or whatever and keep at home for a bit just to adore.

    What makeup are you wearing today?

    Well i got a good birthday haul of make up, which i wore today. Bless my little boy, who bought me the lippie all by himself apparently, aaah. I asked for red and he got the right colour, love him. Paul and Joe pressed powder in O1. (Lovely translucent powder with a strip of shimmer, no disco...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Those are lovely Rue. So classic. I bet if you broke down the cost per wear, they would work out rather reasonable anyway. I have a pair of Valentino nude courts, which were eye wateringly expensive back in the day, but have been going strong for about two decades nearly. Other shoes have come...

    Warm Christmas Drinks

    Quick and easy mulled wine. (If you can't buy the mulled wine sachets). Take a square of muslin, fill it with a chopped up cinnamon stick or two, some cloves, nutmeg, some allspice, basically whatever spices you have in the cupboard. Take a bottle of red wine, about half a pint of orange juice...

    Basic make-up

    Welcome Gabi, sorry to hear about your arm. I would agree with the girls, powder, blusher, mineral makeup if you need some coverage and mascara can be done with one hand quite well. Perhaps a lip tint or gloss. I can curl my eyelashes with my left hand too. Like Rue i broke some fingers on my...

    Dita Von Teese

    Hmm, i'm a 7.5, so i tend to only find the matronly looking vintage shoes, (obviously shoe wise, i'm the ugly best mate of the size 6 cutie, hehe).

    Dita Von Teese

    Actually she looks very healthy in that interview. I think as C-dot said she is just a very petite lady. Obviously next to the more rubenensque woman in the Daily Mail interview she would look miniscule.

    Hair under winter hat

    OOh i know, i use the Tresemme freeze hold, as it's the only thing to keep my front rolls in check. But it's a bugger to comb out. I just really suffer anyway with my hair all year round, it being so fine and uncooperative, but i've learned to live with it, sigh.

    Girl Crushes!

    Me neither. I would love to look like her when i'm a grown up! She is my serious hair crush. Although i did read that she has a chap come round every morning at 5am to give her a blowdry.

    Hair under winter hat

    I'm feeling your pain, i really am. As i suffer with lank, thin, hair generally. Winter is a total mare for me regarding hat hair. I have learned the following: Felt berets, if they're worn all day, tend to leave an indentation around my head, ie serious hat hair, with my crown flattened like a...

    Show us your hair do's....

    Well your hair always looks adorable, so you are an inspiration and your bangs always look so neat. I think i'm like you, i always feel i look a bit harsh with no bangs. I do have a broad forehead which doesn't help either.

    Show us your hair do's....

    Welcome back Tenuki. Love the hair-do and your colour is beautiful. Shebear - very pretty as usual. You have inspired me to cut the bangs back in my hair again. I have tried growning them, they are to nearly the end of my nose, but i just think i look better with bangs. (Herman Munster...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    I second that! Tonight i'm having a seafood supper, we're starting with a bottle of Moet, (another birthday gift, not my favorite champagne, so i thought i'd share it with the guests, rather than it languishing in a cupboard). Then we have a couple of bottles of cheap and cheerful Frascati to...

    What's for Dinner?

    Sounds like a slice of heaven Tom. I love Meatloaf. It's not a popular dish in this country,but i do indulge sometimes. Tonight is seafood night, garlic prawns, dressed crab, coquilles St J, mussel linguine to start. I have guests, i really don't eat like this normally.
