    Show us your hair do's....

    Spoolies rock! Well, I had a bit of a hair-do disaster at the weekend. I used metal dinky curlers on my hair. (Thick, curly) As soon as I tried to part the curl all I got was a whole heap of frizz!!!! Ended up having to roll the back and sides. Anyone else tried them? K

    Vintage Sizing

    Even when I wa very slim (mooons ago) I struggled to get into some British stores size 16. (Top Shop especially) and my very slim petite friend struggles to get a pair of trousers to fit. In fact, she has a batch of trousers that she bought in France and they are the only ones that fit nicely...

    Favourite Scents

    What about Vintage? I wear Soir de Paris by Bourjois, I'm not overly keen on the smell but at living history events elderly ladies always recognise it! It's quite heady. Violet I think. For everyday I like Eternity or Casimir by Chopard. But for work I tend to stock to Rose by Floris or...

    S.O.S Hair dye disaster

    When I had one of many 'hair don't's' in my teens, I rang the Wella helpline. They suggested washing my hair and coating it in Vegetable oil then wrapping my hair in cling film (do you call it glad Wrap or something?) It did lift the colour out and it's non harmful. I ended up peroxide blonde...

    Spanx

    Smoosh-age did occur with the bra I bought. (DD cup) :-( And a note to the bigger gals...the flabby bits have to go somewhere...and with the high waisted thingys it ends up just below your bra making you look like the Pilsbury dough man. Trust me. :mad:

    Wow @ Feineman hats.....I want!!!!!! I Want!!!! Do you have Monsoon or Accesorize over in the USA? I got a fab floppy brimmed hat there in summer last yr, they tend to repeat it every yr. Cost about £20 ($40?) However, in the sale was a bashed one (ever so slightly) so I bought that one too...
