    does anyone wear wigs or hair pieces?

    I wear clip in extensions nearly every day now. The prices have come down drastically on real hair extensions and I bought to try out for my wedding. I'm addicted now. I've been playing more and more with hairstyles because of them.

    Ladies prefer...

    A man who is good with their hands. Someone who can take on a project and fix it. Someone who does not procrastinate until the last minute. Responsible. Honest. A bit old-fashioned with manners. Someone who inexplicably reminds me of my dad. A person with whom silence is peaceful and right...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    I am looking for a super long lasting non-drying red (little gloss factor) for my wedding. I used a Loreal 12 hour thing for my engagement shots and it was gone in little over an hour of applying it. I have thin lips so things tend to "crust" up on the outer edges and I have total color failure...

    New Hair

    Think about what length you want your hair when it is styled. If you want to sit curled at your shoulders, leave a bit more length than cutting it at your shoulders. It will bounce up more than when you had such long hair with it's weight. You can always go shorter until you get it exactly...

    Need Help Restyling Modern Wedding Dress

    I should have a month by the time it comes in. I have extra fabric already to do with what I want so I don't need ot rely on whatever/if some comes of fthe length. Having just a wrap is cumbersome as I would be tugging and pulling at it constantly to keep in place as I really don't want my back...

    Need Help Restyling Modern Wedding Dress

    You ladies are wonderful. I hadn't thought of shortening the dress - but that may be a good option. It is actually pretty huge on the bottom with a crinoline in place and has a nice chapel length train. I do like the idea of cap sleeves. Or I played around with the idea of adding a chiffon...

    Need Help Restyling Modern Wedding Dress

    Inspirations - Love this on the right and the pink. I love this as an option - to side drape chiffon from one side to the other and then tack into place on the back and drape down. Or the picture on the bottom - to do a pleated type strap that will widen into a v in the back...

    Need Help Restyling Modern Wedding Dress

    Ladies- Boy do I need some help and some ideas. I recently purchased a modern wedding dress in the hopes that it came close to my vision of inspiration in my head. I unfortunately spent months trying to find the perfect vintage dress - but anything I liked, I certainly could not squeeze...

    Best beauty decision you've made?

    Hair extensions. I adore them and I don't care if anyone thinks they are silly. I feel like this is what I am supposed to look like.

    OT: My parents

    All I can do is send hugs your way. I know that when my father had his strokes - I prepared to move within a week to move back in with them. It is an incredibly difficult decision to make. I drew up plans for adding a ramp. I knew my mother could not physically handle it. Unfortunately he took...

    Weight loss options

    I do know a little photography secret about the chin. When posing, press your tongue up to the roof of your mouth. Instantly raises it a smidge. Shoulders back and neck out slightly helps too. As for exercises for that area - hmmm - I'm clueless.

    Weight loss options

    I am going to sing the praises of the Moosewood line of cookbooks. I loved these when I went veg. and learned how to cook. Find a few staple things you love that can be made quickly. Regarding eating out, I actually gained a lot of weight going veg though because I ended up frustrated at my...

    Welcome To The No Spender Bender

    I did ok, not fabulous but ok - 1. Wedding dress came in $295 under budget. YAHOO! 2. Home inspections didn't go quite as planned but could have been worse. I'll find out the real damage this Wed. with the monster gravity feed furnace. 3. Found some wedding deals and created some focus on...

    Vintage style while doing chemo ?

    That is pretty lovely. I think though that the really great thing - is that they are recognizing someone so lovely. Blondie I really do wish you all the best. I hope you know there are plenty of us on here who think of you regularly and wish you the speediest of recoveries.

    Bride's wedding gloves

    A girlfriend of mine had long elbow length gloves on for her entire ceremony. She did not take them off. I did not notice until seeing her pictures afterward that on her ring finger - she was gloveless. It either had a small removeable sleeve over just that finger or it did not have a covering...

    Retro=Frumpy?

    I've been thinking about this since you posted the original question. I too am carrying some extra pounds, running a little late on my dye jobs once in a while, and though I love tats, don't have any myself. I think one thing to focus on could be your accessories. I often look at some...

    ChanteuseCarey- I saw this in the other post and was meaning to reply. You look absolutely stunning. The dress, the new figure!!, the lovely hair. Thanks for the explanation. I was seething over here thinking, "Why does everyone's hair grow so fast!". Now I know the secret, good for you. I...
