    help me with hair to go with this dress please ladies!

    thanks! I'll remember those tips. I mostly feel very self conscious about my mouth though - smile - with teeth, or without? [huh] and then I end up flitting between the two while the person taking the pic gets themselves sorted and look stupid in the end result!

    what if you just don't suit vintage make up?

    thanks girls mysterygal I do think browns and natural colours just suit me better than charcoals. I have an idea though - there are a lot of browny-taupey colours (which are sort of half brown half grey) I might see how I look in something like that.... ShrinkingViolet I didn't see whether...

    what if you just don't suit vintage make up?

    good idea cherry red and miss neecerie - I WILL go for brown next time, I think my eyes stood out in a really lurid way (which you can't see in those pics due to the red eye lol!). I love different shades of browns, coffees etc. and know how to make those work with my eyes, so that's what I'll...

    what if you just don't suit vintage make up?

    Fleurre I think that is the problem, thanks for pointing it out and now you have, I'm almost sure that the red is too "warm" and orangey. I have VERY blue veins on the back of my wrist. Do you have a reccomendation for a lippy shade which is cool? Also I think you're right, the eyes with the...

    help me with hair to go with this dress please ladies!

    thanks girls! I appreciate your thoughts, and don't feel SO bad now (although the diet re-starts today, and my Mum has just promised me an extra birthday pressie if I get to my target - 7lb in a month should be doable). Sari your website is amazing! Maybe you can offer me some advice on how...

    what if you just don't suit vintage make up?

    I wore smokey grey eyes and red lips at the weekend - looking back at the pictures it did me NO favours at all. Not so lucky to be able to wear any colours, like some can. My eyes are really yellowy green (hazel but very piercing with it - am not making them sound nice at all am I, lol) and the...

    help me with hair to go with this dress please ladies!

    aw thanks so much Landgirl for asking, I had a fab time, my friend helped me with my hair (backcombing it a bit on top too) and it looked great (unfortunately in the photos you can see how my annoying floppy bit kept coming down at the side - will have to pin that next time). Apparently my hair...

    help me with hair to go with this dress please ladies!

    Thank you! My hair is brown - a sort of mid brown at the mo. I went to our local chemist and got myself a hairnet! It's a brown one (I also got an "invisible" one but it's so fine and flyaway I doubt I'd be able to do anything with it, plus, I want it to be a feature). Any tips on getting...
