    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    I've heard really good things about Korres lip butters http://www.korres.com/default.aspx?page_id=279, i've used the stila stains before and liked them but they're a little pricier - id also recommend you try them out first as I dont think they're for everyone and the colours tend to turn. If...

    What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?

    Success! since this post had it fresh in my mind I took my lipstick into priceline today and literally swatched all the appropriate reds on my hand to find a dupe! Turned out the closest match was the first one I tried which is Really Red by Revlon and it's almost exact - the revlon is just...

    From pixie to.. what?!

    For myself I went from having a short pixie a la Jean Seberg to having a bob with a side fringe - you basically have to just keep cutting off the ducktail/mullet and let the rest of it grow out as there's not really any styles between those two lengths (unless of course you want to rock a...

    How many products do you use?

    Oh, I'll add that my moisturiser has SPF in it but if I'm going out in the sun at all ( I'm an Aussie) I'll wear a full protection sunscreen and I won't wear makeup as I find it too heavy to have both.

    Growing out short hair

    Hi :) Im in the same boat as I shaved my head in march and recently had it cut so it's now in a sort of pixie cut - I had in my head that if I could wait it out all my hair would be 4 inches long and them BAM! middy :) haha but I could not get past the mullet so I cut it. I went for a Jean...

    Show us your vintage-vintage inspired Engagement Ring!

    fgradowski it's gorgeous! I love the architecture of the setting - stunning! I got some better pictures of mine since the others were removed - rhe (potential) sapphire came out very dark, which it is in real life anyway, but it's a bit difficult to photograph so apologies for that...

    Show us your vintage knitting and crochet!

    Hey all :) I cant remember if I've posted the things I've made before on this thread but my account with photobucket was having issues (some very naughty people were up to no good with my photos!) so all my image links got deleted so I'm trying again :) I've made a few other bits and bobs but...

    Hair color advice needed

    I miss my streak so much! Since my hair is short now it wont work but once i grow it out i'll definitely get one again. I had a platinum streak as well as having the underlayers of my fringe platinum so when it was brushed down it looked red but in a pompadour or a roll the blonde showed. It's...

    Long lost L'interdit...

    Hi :) I was just wondering if anyone knew a perfume that was similar to L'Interdit by Givenchy. I have the les mythiques version at the moment but I am rapidly reaching the end of it and I'm a little bit heartbroken about that. I love this perfume! I get quite bad headaches from most perfumes -...

    Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries - Aussie 20s TV series

    I'm not sure if perhaps some of the problems with the series have come from the fact that it is adapted from a book series. I've read all of the books and was very excited to hear about the series but unfortunately, as is so often the case, it just doesn't live up. I think it's important to...

    Hair Color Advice?

    Have you thought of doing a take on the classic blonde streak but having pink instead? Another option which i had done (albeit with blonde) if you have bangs is to have the under layers dyed pink but the layers over the top brown so when your bangs are down they just look brown but when rolled...
