I have very short legs also. My solution to this has, in part, been buying a garter belt that allows me to adjust the garters very short, and then I wear stockings that come way up to the top of my thigh. I actually prefer that. If you look, Rago makes a short strap garter belt that is quite...
It's very handy, especially if you accidentally rip out a hem or have a loose neckline or dress that sits wide on the shoulders. My favorite use though is using it to keep the end of a fabric belt flat. You know, there's never a loop to put it through and often it won't reach the belt loops on...
I have used tape directly on my skin to keep bra straps in place, to keep necklines from stretching open, all sorts of things. It will not irritate your skin, it won't hurt when you pull it off, you have nothing to worry about.
However, I'm not sure it will really hold enough to stand up to...
I have very thick hair and have the same problem. Try doing a dry set! I find that mine sets better that way anyway. Set it dry and just use some setting lotion :-)
We have those everywhere up here in MA, even in the regular grocery stores! Have you tried Inca Cola at all? It's an interesting taste, based on an old lemon-verbena recipe. It was founded in Peru in the late 1920s!
Sounds like you're finding flimsy bedroom garters that are really meant to be seen on the floor. Your garter belt should sit at your waist.
Different gals like to wear them at different heights, some right above the knee, mid-thigh or at the very top of the thigh. It also depends on what...
Sounds like it's hard to get the ends nice and flat and tucked in properly...
Did you tie your hair in a scarf first? This will help eliminate the tugging and will keep the rollers neatly in place. I'd give it a try if you haven't already.
Really? I find Diet Pepsi to be much more icky sweet than Diet Coke. All a matter of taste, I suppose!
Which totally reminds me that Fresca is totally sugar free, even though they do not advertise it on the bottle.
It is L'Origan. It used to be available through vermontcountrystore.com, but they don't have it listed at the moment.
My mom had a bottle of it when I was a kid. She gave it to me because I loved it and she never used it. 20+ years later, it's still one of my favorites!
MarieAnne, gather your stockings up in your hand and as you put them on, keep your index finger on top of the seam. When you put them on, you'll be running your index finger in a straight line up your leg. Works almost every time.
Mentha, put on your pull-on, pull up your stockings, and...
Well I find that a lot of people here just haven't been buying much in the past year or so and that has nothing to do with the listings or not. But I do know that the more work you require someone to do to get information, the less likely they are to take the time to do it. That's just the way...
Hey, when you're posting links to German Ebay listings here, it might be helpful if you include a translation of the listing in English or at least some basic details such as measurements here. I like some of your listings but don't read German and don't know anyone who does. I'm sure you...
No problem! When I heard that on the radio, I originally thought of posting it here, and forgot. This is a great thread and was the reminder I needed! Glad you've enjoyed it.
