Baker's shoes
Are they good quality or do they hurt your feet? The shoes I bought are $45 but I'm thinking of returning them if they aren't good quality.

Annoying flyaways
Just when I thought I perfected blow-drying my hair straight with a HUGE round boar-bristle brush...I look closely in the mirror and I have these annoying flyaways on the top of my head. It's really frustrating. What's the best method to tame these pup

Monoprix in Paris
What's the best location of Monoprix in Paris for picking up some cute, inexpensive fashions and makeup products? We'll be going to Galeries Lafayette as well, but I thought it would be fun to hit the other end of the economic spectrum as well. D

Update on hat washing

I found Dr. Scholl's exercise sandals for only $14.99!
These are approximately $35 everywhere else so I was surprised to see them sold at such a discount. I ordered 3 pairs for myself & DD & I'm 100% happy with the quality & service so I wanted to share this great price with the rest of you. The only probl

Itchy Red Bumps on legs
I have several itchy and red bumps on the back of my leg and I don't know where they are from. Does anyone know how to get rid of them or even why I have them? I haven't used anything different on my legs so I doubt it's an allergic reaction. Because o

Holy Grail T-shirt!
I have found my holy grail t-shirt. I bought a couple at Cabelas and then found em on line in different colors. This is the most flattering tee I've ever worn. It's unbelievably soft(it's a soft stretchy knit, not smooth like pima), feminine and is a

Cheap botox in Los Angeles?
On a whim I took advantage of a cheap one time offer to get botox for my forehead. I was blown away by how it removed wrinkles. But it's so expensive regular price! Anyone know what is the least expensive place to get botox in Los Angeles?

What to use to 'spike' hair?
My 10 year old just got his hair cut pretty short and wants to spike it. What is the best way to do this? We tried a gel but that doesn't seem to be working to well, it falls after a short period of time. I have seen hair wax before, is that somethin

Urban Decay shadows

Like the site - www.stockingirl.com
Hi, Found some cool stuff there. Personally, I like it best because they have real silk stockings for plus sizes. Hard to find those for my wife. And, the colored backseams (for regular sizes) are awesome! If anyone has suggestions where to get
