    Cold Cream- Brands and advice!

    To answer your first question, I meant a milk cleanser...a cleanser that has a creamy, milky texture and doesn't foam. Foaming cleansers tend to dehydrate. Good for you, going paraben-free! A lot of brands are phasing out parabens because of the obvious breast cancer link, so I think the...

    Vintage Phones

    My grandparents gave me their phone when they sold their house. Nothing fancy, but I use it everyday and it works very well. I love the ring, and not having to worry about dying batteries.

    Oil Cleansing Method

    I also read this on the Lavera website: Both oily and acne skin is out of balance skin, and can be the result of hormonal, seasonal or dietary changes, or a reaction to drying soaps and other products. Resist the temptation to treat these skin types with oil-free products, which are often...

    Oil Cleansing Method

    In that photo, I'm actually wearing a MUA's Chanel lipstick...not sure of the shade (doh!). However, Chanel is a brand I don't like too much (too many nasty additives and fillers). My favorite lipstick is made by Dr. Hauschka...a shade that looks brownish-red in the tube, but applies...

    Going on vacation?

    I'm going to Portland at the end of July. It's mostly a leisure trip for me, but I'm going there in the first place because my mother is teaching a seminar...sometimes I travel with her when I'm not busy. I'm also going to be looking at schools, since I'm considering transferring to that area...

    Oil Cleansing Method

    Oof, my skin is going through a phase where it hates oil cleansing currently...I guess I'll have to wait until winter! I just love how economic oil cleansing is.

    Cold Cream- Brands and advice!

    Okay, so I've been using the new cold cream for the past week... MEH. If your skin responds well to cold cream, I think you'll like it, and I recommend it because the ingredients are pure and top-quality. However, my skin clearly hates cold cream. It definitely wasn't drawing anything...

    Pencil skirts...

    I like to wear pencil skirts and little vintage sundresses with those $4 Chinese mary janes in the spring and summer. I have really long legs, so I can get away with flats, but heels definitely add to a pencil skirt ensemble...I just hate walking long distances and dancing in heels!

    Are You Brave Enough to Share Your Prom Photos?

    I would be brave enough if only I had any photos to share!! What a funny night...I was actually a sophomore (my school was so small that all classes were invited to prom) and my boyfriend wouldn't take me, so my date was my gay best friend. The theme was the 1940's! I didn't have any great...

    Cultural Appropriation

    If the portrayal is done with respect and with the intention of better understanding and empathizing with the culture, than I have no problem at all with it.

    Movies For Children

    I love Muppet movies right now as much as I did when I was a little kid.

    Vintage Sizing

    :offtopic: I just downloaded "I Can Hear the Bells" (Broadway version) as my ringtone. Joy!

    Vintage Sizing

    Ugggh, I'm so sick of "vanity sizing." It makes it just about impossible to order something from a catalog or the internet (unless all measurements are stated, and even then accuracy is questionable). As for shoes...well, I rarely find vintage shoes that fit me at all! I have pretty narrow...

    The Vintage Suitor

    I'm all for women asking out men when they see necessary. I've done it a few times...it didn't lead to anything great, but the guys certainly appreciated it. I knew my last boyfriend for a year before we started dating. We both liked each other and knew it. I considered asking him out...

    Jewellery, gents?

    I don't mind a little bit of jewelry on a man, as long as it's subtle and tasteful. My last boyfriend wore a Star of David ring everyday, and I liked that. One of my good friends started wearing a nice necklace that he bought when we were in India. I think I appreciate meaningful jewelry the...

    Teeth Whitening

    I heard that at-home strip kits and such should only be used if you've got a lot of enamel to spare, if you don't have sensitive teeth, and if you're looking for something subtle. Other than that, consult a dentist. Don't let them overbleach! Freakishly white teeth are not attractive.

    SWING DANCING dvds?

    Hahaha, I've gotten to the point where I hardly even notice the creeps in class. A few are very persistent, but they mostly prey on the beginners because they're not good dancers. However, this one guy..."One-Eyed John," drives me nuts!! He doesn't dance...he just tries to frisbee the girl...

    Classic/Classy Style in Business Casual Environment

    My last job uniform was plain-Jane khakis and polo shirts, with a "business-like" hair style *cringe*. My employers didn't mind me wearing my hair in the more subtle vintage styles, though. I would always sneak in a pair of vintage earrings. I couldn't wear nail polish because it scratched...
