Does anyone have any secrets for removing tea stains? I'm a *huge* tea
drinker, and the stuff stains like nobody's business. I got a drop or
two on my new pale green corduroy shirt jacket. I blotted as soon as I
got home (I was in the car when |

| Are logos on shirts all that bad? |
| I posted a while back about logos on clothes, and a lot of people
criticized me for that. I claimed that logos (like a Ralph Lauren
pony) could add to the style of a shirt by creating more color
possibilities. This suggestion was pretty much ignored.

| Re: Christian Dior not on Sephora? |
| Thanks Janice! I do see it now, under Dior. I think they must have
changed it from being listed as Christian Dior to just Dior... or maybe I
just had a blonde moment!

| Angelina Jolie's new hair color |
| What has she done to her hair recently? It looks FABULOUS. Highlighted?
Lightened? It's so subtle that I can't tell. Now I understand why people
think she's so beautiful--she is. Her previous super-dark hair color was
totally working against her. |
