Jeans contest winner
In my search for low-rise, straight-legged jeans: I tried Lucky, but their "easy fit" jeans only came in annoying faded washes and didn't look $95 worth of great. J. Crew's "boyfriend jean" wasn't bad -- bought a pair of those. The winner? Ol

Drugstore "eye" creams
I'm in the process of trying to find a moisturizer for my eye area. I'm not limiting myself to creams supposedly made specifically for the eye, in fact, I think I'd prefer one that isn't. (So much more money for such a tiny amount) I've really like

Short Sleeved Tees
I'm trying to find tee shirts with genuine short sleeves. Not sleeveless. Not the tiny cap or almost-cap sleeves that you see in most places, which make my arms look huge. I want shirts with sleeves that fall anywhere from the middle of the upper ar
