    What's your best beauty/household tip?

    I often think about how if I were to have children, I'd teach them a ton of tips about being resourceful. My Mother was always big on advising us to, 'Be resourceful.' and it has served me *beyond well* in my life. Now, particularly about beauty... not always the most glamourous tips, but...

    What Are You Reading

    Hey Harp! That's almost fightin' words for me, 'cause I'm such a Salinger obsessionist. ;) I actually think Knowles' effort is far more coming-of-age than Catcher, which to me is more about madness and depression than coming-of-age, but that's arguable. You can definitely survey the space...

    What Are You Reading

    Just finished 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower,' by Stephen Chbosky. It's a dead sweet book... really lovely and precious. In the vein of 'A Separate Peace,' and other coming of age books. A teriffically enjoyable, warm read. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Chbosky

    Shake up your Wardrobe

    I think this kinda goes for ladies too, at least, for me. I have a relatively small (but carefully considered) closet that I simply work *really* hard... all manner of combinations and new ways of looking at things so as to not get bored or repetitive. Someone the other day actually said, "J-...

    Jerry Lewis. Hands down. Chaplin, Keaton, Groucho Marx, Lucille Ball. I think Cary Grant did dead brilliant comedy, and so did Katharine Hepburn. Steve Martin in his hay-day, Tom Hanks in his hay-day. John Cleese, yes. Gene Wilder.

    What is your expertise?

    I have not yet. I've long wanted to go to Chile. I hope that trip is in the near future. From photos, it looks stunningly beautiful. I gather you have been? You are kind, Miss N-. Honestly, I have a way to go and probably always will. It's an immense subject. I just hope that any of my...

    What is your expertise?

    Wine, relatively. There's always more to know, but it's my profession, passion, hobby, interest, and favorite medium of art. Writing. I'm a brilliant writer, or at least, can be, and I know it obviously. I've been doing it since I was very, very small. It's how I think and encounter the world...

    Opinions on H&M cotton khaki suit

    This suits you much better, SVB. (Pun intended.) The lighter fabric color and tie choice are smart. I do agree about the buttons -- they make the suit a bit less serious and more casual. Personally, I find them distracting. All in all, a great value though.

    Wearing a light colored dress for a night out.

    You could pull it off! A flower in your hair, silver/rhinestone or gold shoes & jewelry... I myself love pastels at night in the Summer. It is unexpected and refreshing.
