    What kind of wallet?

    Ugh, I'm sorry about losing your wallet! That happened to me in the fall...it was awful! My wallet isn't very vintage-y, but I like it because it holds everything (dollars, change, cards and ID) together in one place. The outside of it is canvas with pink, beige and brown zig-zaggy stripes...

    What is art? A survey

    All of them. I want a painting done by an elephant!

    Any other gals growing their hair out?

    I'm growing mine out, and have been for the last year. My head was completely shaved last fall! Right now I'm evenly at chin-length, a little shorter in the back so it grows in gracefully. I'm sort of past the bob stage, which I was wearing while the top layers grew in to match the bottom...

    Steak 'N' Shake

    Ahh yes, I'm already prepping for the rain-shock. I don't even have a pair of rain boots! That will be remedied soon, mind you...:eek: Rainy days in New Mexico are equivalent to most major holidays.

    Steak 'N' Shake

    Yes yes, Evergreen! Gosh, the campus is sooo gorgeous...How did he like the school? I'm actually a New Yorker to begin with, but I've lived in New Mexico since I was very young...I've got the accent to prove it. :o

    Steak 'N' Shake

    I love Burgerville, too!! They're one of the few ethical fast food chains left, and it shows in their food...and I've never encountered such amazing service in a fast food joint! Their veggie burgers are the best, and their chocolate hazelnut milkshakes are to die for. Last time I was in...

    What made you fall in love with retro beauty?

    I've considered the retro beauty to be the epitome of loveliness for as long as I can remember. My father always used to watch TCM early in the morning when I stayed with him during the weekends when I was very young, and I liked sneaking into the living room to watch them. I went through a...

    The Cheese thread

    Ohhh, dear. I love gorzonzola. Pasta with gorgonzola sauce! Gorgonzola crumbles on a fresh, garden salad! *dies* I'm also a big fan of brie. I just use it in place of butter, since it's so fatty. Baked brie with a bittersweet berry sauce is absolutely amazing, too! Yum...

    How to get pale, luminous skin?

    I really, really don't recommend bleaching it. Powdering your skin might make it a little more pale. Using face powder, definitely -- but use a little blush so you don't look sickly. For dusting, use cornstarch. Ladies used to (and still do) use talc, but it has been linked to cancer...

    eco-friendly

    It's definitely a very light balm...I probably wouldn't use it for severe chapping, either! I sometimes use L'Occitane balm for that, though it doesn't wear very well. Burt's Bees is pretty good, but don't use the new honey kind! It sounds like a good idea, but it's a lousy lip balm.

    eco-friendly

    Great ideas! I only drink bottled water if I'm in a third world country -- and even then, I'm probably taking the same risks, since bottled water is pretty much always (untreated!) tap water. At home, I use a carbon water filter. I'm considering investing in an aluminum water bottle, since...

    Hot for red lipstick!!!

    Eeek, all these big-brand lipstick recommendations make me want to point everyone back to the "Lead in Lipstick" thread! I really don't recommend jumping for any lipstick brand unless you personally scrutinize the ingredients. You're putting it on your mouth, after all...

    I need some change!

    The first thing I always do after a break-up is delete his number from my phone. That way, I'm not [as] tempted to call him. Then you have to distract yourself! Spend time with your girlfriends, and go out every night. Watch lots of silly movies. I second getting a new hairdo! Take...

    Hot for red lipstick!!!

    Check out Vivienne Westwood (my number one fashion inspiration). She wears dark reds (so as not to clash with her bold, orange hair) and is certainly no Red Hat lady! Matching the right shade to your skin and hair color is what makes it look nice. I think lining the lips properly gets much...

    Show us your hair do's....

    Very cute! My hair was that length about a year ago.

    Beautiful Women

    So true. When I was a little girl, I always liked the "bad" women in the Disney movies more than the "good" ones. The goodness of the women was only measured by how fair and meek they were! The bad ones were the only ones who really got things done. Exceptions are Mulan and Belle from...

    Oil Cleansing Method

    I'm still loving the soap. It's great for travel! You should definitely use a wash cloth with it, though (just like you would using the OCM). I haven't tried rosehip oil yet, but I'm sure it's great for the complexion! Rosehips are one of the best sources of vitamin C available. I eat...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    I'm definitely a foodie! :) That said, I just ordered a bento box set. Lately, I've been inspired by the photos from the awesome bento box artists on Flickr who make healthy lunches so appealing! Here's a nice site with some information on bento box lunches: www.lunchinabox.net I got...
