    Back to zits

    My problem is that i have very very tiny pores that become blocked easily- and once a bockage (black head) forms I need to manually remove it as futher oil just gets trapped behind it and the pore stretches and we all know that once a pore is stretched it can't shrink back down again- and...

    Does your lipstick have to match your nail color?

    My humble oppinion is that they dont HAVE to match but it looks lovely when they do.

    1920's makeup

    I love Frankly scarlet and use that as my everyday blusher- i have a snow white thing going on. I'd definatly recomend that - and the black track fluid line that you apply with a brush, set with carbon shadow if you want it to be smudge proof. My Mum used to call me Clara Bow on account of my...

    Favorite Vintage Perfumes

    So i went to the Guerlin counter and held the bottle of Mitsouko lovingly in my hands- i liberally sprayed my wrists with the fragrance and......Oh my God! It was awful - it had those base notes that Joop has- it made me feel physically sick- I was so gutted as i really wanted to love it...

    Lace it up - The true Corset thread

    I tend to wear my corset over my clothes - be that a shirt and pencil skirt or trousers and a top , whatever and I don't have a problem as such because i tend to put a vertical 'tuck' in my clothes- kind of fold them over under the corset. It would indeed be difficult to get clothes to fit if I...

    Dressing vintage in the workplace

    Kate I get some fab vintage inspired peices from outlet stores- I shop mainly at the 'old ladies' shops like Coast, Precis Petite, Windsmoor, Phase Eight etc. They are more classically styled and fit a 'vintage figure' (as defined by 'What Katie Did' store) much better. The quality is always...

    Dressing vintage in the workplace

    Hi I work for the UK government in an office and due to our distrimination policy at work we are allowed to wear more or less anything we like- from tracksuits to business suits. The only things I've heard someone being sent home for wearing was a bikini top (no, really!) even the guy in the...

    Favorite Vintage Perfumes

    I love this description, it made me go out an buy a bittle. I love the initial smell but when it dries it smells a bit like Laiment by Coty on me. I wear Crystal Noir by versace daily- it's not vintage but it is lovely!

    Darker Vintage looks

    Thanks for the advice Voodood Dolly- i'll look into those suggestions. I had a CMB colour analysis done and found out that jewel tones really are my best shades so I'm glad they'll go with my dark look. I'm really drwan to the femme fatale character- so seems so much more interesting than...

    Hooded top- ideas please

    I feel a creative challenge comming on: in the vein of Steam-punk, Cyber-punk etc. I'm thinking of developing 'Deco-punk'! In years to come when it's all the rage and people are fighting over the internet about how it all started- remember you heard it here first!

    Hooded top- ideas please

    Hi I have a load- and I mean a load- of hooded tops from Gothic Couture Designer Heavy red- so not your usual jersey ones. These are slinky knit fabric, some opaque, some sheer in black and grey colours. I haven't been wearing them much because they are have a high neckline which makes my...

    How to get pale, luminous skin?

    I have extreamly pale skin - what my Mother has always termed 'Snow white skin' and I like to look after it. A few years a go I wore glasses and found that the sun would shine through the glasses and burn my cheeknones so i ended up with brown patches which looked like black eyes. I have been...
