Zara. San Francisco. Woo-hoo.
We're finally getting a Zara! Union Square vicintiy. I saw the sign a couple weeks ago. Next year should be a really fun year because we already have Forever 21, H&M is already hiring, and then we'll have Zara. Should be interesting! Claire

Handbag with rhinestone studded strap
I recently saw someone carrying a suede hobo bag that had a leather strap that was studded with various shaped rhinestones in a pattern. Does anyone know of anyone who makes these or where I could find them? TIA.

Forever 21 in San Francisco
I must be the only person who has managed NOT to peek into this store. It sits at the corner as you emerge from the metro station on Powell Street. I had a chance to go in there today and I must say I am shocked at the poor quality of the clothes. Yes,

L'Oreal Renoviste glycolic acid peel works well
I have been using this product for several weeks now and I'll keep using it. It beats Lancome's own peel which at $140 is outrageously expensive and less effective. Strange. They are owned by the same company. Anyway, it's not too harsh at least on me

Please recommend me some jeans...
Hi, I'm wondering if the good people here at A.F. can help me on my quest for a good-fitting pair of jeans (or pants). I don't think that I've ever had a pair in my life that fit perfectly. About me - I'm 5 foot 8, 135lbs. 28 inch waist, 30 in

Max Factor Colour Adapt foundation is a winner
I bought this foundation a couple of weeks ago and really love it. Normally I don't buy foundation from a drugstore because I find the quality of drugstore-bought foundations to be lower than foundations I have bought from a department store (for examp

Derma E: Ester-C creme with E skin recovery complex (excellent product)
I have been using this cream from Derma E ($14.95). It's not greasy at all, therefore very good for normal to oily skin. It makes my skin look very smooth and flawless. I have gone for days without foundation. You do need to put a sunscreen afterwards
