Men's low rise khakis
A dumb question but I find no answers anywhere else - has anyone found low rise men's khakis or chinos? I love low rise jeans but need khakis for work - I hat eregular Khakis that are so high in the waist - it seems only women's Khakis come in low

Alternative to Botox
Once again, I'm perusing the Sephora site, shopping w/o shopping, and I've seen this. It's touted as an alternative to "the dreaded needle". What do you think? The directions are pretty darn restrictive. I wonder if it's worth it. And I wonder h

Lancome on Sephora?
I've been browsing the Sephora site tonight. Shopping, but not shopping - just updating my extensive favorites list. I've just noticed that Lancome is all over the site. Sephora never sold Lancome before, did they? This is new, right? Jamie

Christmas gift gratification
I got the sweetest thank you note today from my 18 year old niece for her Christmas gift. I gave her the Sephora midnight train case, the big one, stuffed to bursting with products and samples of all kinds, mostly brands she had only heard of....sh

Minnetonka moccasin question
I just got around to trying on some Minnetonka beaded moccasins I got for Christmas. My usual size feels a little tiny bit short in the toe. Can anyone tell me whether these shoes stretch out at all as you wear them? Thanks, Smokey

pullover sweater makeover
I have a cotton crewneck pullover I never wear. Cut it up the middle, sewed on some grograin ribbon on each edge, made buttonholes and installed some neat buttons ====> cardigan. This could be the quick and certainly cheap solution for menopausal wome

Another dry cleaning question
I have a BCBG knit wrap dress that is 94% polyester, 6% spandex (it feels like the old nylon type knit, like an original DVF style) that is tagged "dry clean only". There is nothing structural about the dress--interfacings--that would go awry if it

Origins Modern Friction
Any comments on this? It's described as "Nature's gentle dermabrasion" (and they make a point of saying it's not a scrub). I picked up a sample, but it's hard to tell. My skin is ruddy (probably some rosacea) and the sales lady recommended that I ap

OT- need some books rec
Hi I am going to Chiina later this week- I have one 14 hour trip one way and one 22 hour trip (stops and stuff) on the return flight-- I need 3-4 books to keep me from going stir crazy. Light reading (borderline with chick lit) and in paperback.

OT - Help Catching some Feral Cats
I need a little help. I'm feeding 2 feral cats right now - they are both gorgeous. One appears to be a full blooded persian, the other is an orange and white tabby. We've purchased a dog house for them and also a huge heated dog bed to help get them

a horrible prada nightmare
ust before going to bed I put a load into the washing machine, including a shirt by Prada. I wake up in the middle of the night bathed in sweat. Did I or didn't I check the care label in the Prada shirt? I try to get back to sleep but the only thing I

OT- Xmas tree
Well, I said I'd share pics of my tree when I got the camera software loaded on this machine. Better late than never, eh? I can't remember my Photobucket password (will have to get that off of the old computer.. sigh) so I put them in my Yahoo photo

L'Oreal ReNoviste
This is the chemical peel version of the L'Oreal microdermabrasion kit. I don't know if it is similar to Lancome's new chemical peel, but it came out shortly after Lancome launched theirs. I have only used the peel one time and did not see or feel a
