    DeadPan I like your dresses too and green is a fav of mine as well. I also love purple but green is one that doesn't make my skin look sickly or yellow.

    I can't wear them to work either. I work in a dentist office. But every summer I have a bunch of family reunions,weddings, parties ect that we have to attend so this will be my "nice" summer outfit. The thing is I'm just a shoe junkie.

    The tricky part was the yolk interfacing. I kept getting the stupid thing in backwards. I must have tore it out three times before I got it right. So when you cut the pieces make sure you mark the markings well. lol! I want to make another in a different print now that I know what I'm doing...

    The Art of Shaving

    Lady D, around the knees go slowly and try a razor that pivots. I don't care what brand I use as long as it pivots. I'm not picky about using soap or gel or whatever but I have to use lotion of somesort and anything without alcohol is best. The coco butter works well for me too and it's...

    Dishpan Hands....

    My hands actaully get bad from all the hand washing and gloves I wear. Doesn't matter if it's laytex,nitrile or polyvinyl,it's all the same. So I wash before and after every patient and I use Curel. I have to keep my nails short anyway so you'll never see me with a nice manicure. Polish is a...

    How to get pale, luminous skin?

    Well you already have them. You can't help that. But you can keep from getting new ones. I use regular Oil of Olay with SPF and that helps me. I put it on under my makeup. I use either Physicians Formula Mineral Wear for everyday and work and I use Max Factor Pan Cake with Coty Airspun powder...

    She was discovered in 88. So that would have put me in high school. She is known for the waif look. Do you like Twiggy? Kate kinda reminds me of her. I always thought Nikki Taylor was pretty too in the 80's.

    How to get pale, luminous skin?

    I don't have a problem with stripping. I just think it's pathetic the way people idolise her when imo she hasn't done anything all that great. If she had cured a disease or written a Pulitzer Prize winning novel that would be something. She's also a PeTA spokesmodel which is another strike in...
