Why do some of those winter stocking caps have that really long floppy thing?

does it actually serve a purpose? some of them are like 3 feet long.



I just bought one this year. The long floppy things help keep the hat on but don't need to be 2 feet long.


I live in Northern Maine and work officiating dog sled races....... you want a hat that stays on and stays warm...... looks are not important!




its so dorks can look even more dorkier than they already are




for people with pointy heads, duhhh.

Ideas for a victorias secret pink/paris theme room?

so im getting my room redone but its a VS pink theme with a french/paris twist to it. like white with pink polkadot walls and posters of the eiffel tower and france. im open to any ideas as long as their relatively affordable and fit the whole theme. Thanks!!



woah this is the most adorable thing i have ever heard ever. i think you should like clash things with VS and the eiffel tower, and it would be amazing. no other colors but pink and white would work




u should find a bed headbord thing that is in the shape of the eiffle tower, like with metal and all.




if youre good at painting or know someone who is...try painting a pink eiffel tower on your wall




omg that is soooo kwl! so i wud ask the store to buy the dog.. hahah





maybe not the best advice....





hope that helped!
what does hyped mean?



when somebody like your look.


they click on the hype button


it give you karma on your looks and shows how many people liked your look,


but you don't get a lot of hype at the start, i'm sitting on an average of 2-3 per look.

How much do you spend on clothes and cosmetics a month?

say 100 dollars............not more

If we somehow randomly ended up in each others clothes what would i be wearing?

You'd be wearing jeans not to baggy or skinny just right a bluish green T-Shirt that says born to rock a grey zipper hoodie blue plaid boxers and grey sox



LOL this is funny... White hooters sleep shorts and a black babydoll shirt and victorias secret pink undies with puppies on them.. Im still in bed lol




purple t-shirt that says i love terranova, a colorful hoodie, skinny, torn jeans, black stockings:)




Fluffy socks, navy t-party pants (they're tight yoga pants), an I Love NY tee shirt and a raggety sweater. ^_^ Comfy clothesss




jeans with a green paint stain and a llellow sweatshirt.





i dont get y u wud ask such a random question.

Anyone in the UK? Where can I buy a dress online?

It's for a 21st birthday party (I am 21 too), dress code is smart - so evening/cocktail/party dresses but not ball dresses or anything. I've looked at all the following websites but can't find anything I like - any more suggestions that I've not thought of? Nothing designer - budget is about 75!


Topshop


Warehouse


ASOS


Oasis


River Island


Jane Norman


Next


Dorothy Perkins


Debenhams


Not interested in Ebay or any catalogue sites as these generally have slow delivery.


Any other suggestions?



i've been looking for a dress recently and there are website's like lipsy, motelrocks, and rare which i think have really cute stuff. lipsy is stocked in some shops too so if you use their store locator you can find ones near you so go try it on before you buy.

Where can you buy clothing similiar to lady gaga?

..



Doesnt she make her own?




Fredrick's of Hollywood !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




At a sex shop....she doesn't really wear clothes she wears sex outfits

Hoop earings..out of fashion??or pretty?

i love silver or diamond hoop earings.but yea i wantd to know what every1 else thought about them



I love hoops


I mostly wear hoops :]


pretttty big oness




HOOP EARRINGS will NEVER go out of style, I think :)





It's very much "in" right now. I never thought people saw them as slutty either...until I suggested my friend wear mine with this one dress she wanted to wear to the club, and she looked at me and said "ew, they're trashy!" I was STUNNED. Guess what? She owns hoop earrings now...




i love big hoops , especially if my hair is up in a ponytail - it instantly makes me look more polished. I dont like them too big though .I want a pair of white gold or silver ones with diamonds . I think it just depends on your personal style .




I think small ones sometimes look okay, like the size of a quarter, but most (I say most because there are always exceptions) bigger than that look bad to me. Not sure why, but I don't think they're attractive.




lol...they are still in fashion but it depends even if one celebrity wears it and comes in any ceremony they will once again rock the market....




If they are small they look good, like 2cm. Any bigger and they look ghetto. I don't find them slutty, if they worn with something tasteful anyway..




please be joking... they are totally slutty





i mean if you're a fat black chick I say go for it


have your name in the middle too


the works.




I LOVE HOOPS....WEAR THEM ALL THE TIME.......DONT GET DIAMOND HOOPS....JUST SILVER.......




Not trying to be rude..


When I see hoop earrings i think slut





lmao




wear what you feel is pretty




euuww, they are soooo ugly, don't weat them, please!




if they look good wear them


x

Where did Sara from BIG BROTHER 9 get her jumper from?

Its Grey and has pink lips on it!





I Reaaaaaaaally want one!





Thanx x



You can get them from Oxford Street.

Does anyone have a Le Sac dress from American Apparel?

How do you like it and is it easy to work with? I basically have ZERO talent in styling that type of stuff haha :D



it really was a bad purchase for me. aa doesn't have quality clothes.

Can I wear skinny jeans with my body type?

I've nevery actually tried on skinny jeans. But i dont know if they'll work. I'm 5 foot.. so i'm short. with shooort legs. but they are very built. I've got stocky legs. because i'm and athlete. so i feel like it will just make me look fat! what brand of skinny jeans should i try?? ive got these awesome new kicks i wanna buy but need to wear skinny jeans with em... plus some winter boots i need them for.





what is a brand i could wear with out looking like an oompa loompa or something?? thanks!!



Well, I can't tell you for sure without a picture, but from what you're telling me, it seems like you would look nice in skinny jeans.




Just try some of the Venice skinnies from PacSun.


They're basically just a generic skinny jean.


They'll probably look great on you.





And if you want, you can try their even skinnier fit, Hermosa super skinny.


Or even skinnier yet is the Solana extreme skinny.




Abercrombie has the cutest jeans.




ture religions.


theyre skinny jeans work with any body type.


but assuming those are a bit spendy id say trip jeans form ht




omg i never wore them until now they fit great and im 5'0 too and they fit so nice they made me look 10 pounds lighter




i know fat people that wear them, so i dont see why you couldnt.




hey EVERYONE can rock skinny jeans




yes!! your an athlete so you have big calfs,,youll look smokin!!!

What size shirt should i get.?

hey i dont want it to look to baggy or to tight and i mean i want it to look good around my biceps like around them and i meant in small medium or large.



medium. you can button the shirt back to the elbow so you can still see your biceps..that doesnt rly make sense but in a way it does too. like a preview almost. and i dont think guys have to worry about baggy clothes! so no worries in that case!

Earring[:

can you use a belly ring as an earring?


can you use a nose ring as an earring?


can you use a tongue ring as an earring?





just curious o;



omg !! noo!!





that would killl!! my belly ring is so much thicker than my earings, so is a tongue ring.




belly and tongue rings are way too thick and a nose ring is too small




is your ear gouged? if fo,yes yes and yesO.o

Should I keep my Coach Wallet?

A old friend from Bulgaria has recently reconnected with me through facebook and we had our first long conversation in over a year. We spoke mostly about the recent death of his parents and his new living situation. He has moved in with a brother and is living in extreme poverty. He has had to make the descion between keeping his phone or getting the internet and he choose the internet. His health has aso begun to deteriate and he now weights 88 pounds and he 17 years old.





I recently purchase a $150 Coach Wallet from the Coach Store in the Scottsdale Fashion Square and I feel guilty spending that kind of money on something that is only a material possesion when I know people who are struggling to survive. I already have a $250 Burberry wallet so I don't exactly need a new Wallet. Even though I work and my mother has a great job do you think its justifiable to spend extravagantly on a material possesion?



ouch. Tough question! First of all let me say, the fact that you are asking means you have a big heart. With that being said, you do have the right to spend your money however you like. You did earn it and hopefully that means you'll appreciate it.





However, because of your recent reconnection with an old friend, maybe now you realize on a personal level that things can change at the drop of a hat--and not necessarily for the better.You now have the insight to be more careful about what you spend in the future, and you shouldn't feel guilty for learning this lesson.





Your decision to keep or return your new wallet is your own. I hope I helped you out a little




yes i love my coach bags, wallets, wristlets and watches. so yes i think it is suitable, not to mention my louis vuitton wallet, and two handbags, and coin purse. it is definitely worth it. how does someone in poverty afford the internet? that doesnt make sense. how does he have a computer? hes lying. have you actually seen him. did he take pics and show u? he could be making this all up to get ur pity. dont be gullable : ]

End the Debate! Do you like the smell of AXE or not?

debate!



no, it gets old and smells too strong.


guys who wear that must have a bed odor problem :P


or they think girls think it's sexy....aha




Axe just reminds me of middle school boys, so I don't find it attractive at all. I hate the smell, also.




I personally love the smell of axe. But I wouldn't be all over a guy just because he is wearing it.




Nope. Its pugnant. It stings the nostrils.




Ehh, i don't particularly like it, its alright I guess.




no.




yes of course. it smells sexy

Girls? what kind of shirt is this?

i'll do my best to explain it!





a long U shapes top of shirt (like this sideways ) )





then it has , like, and elastic band around the bellybutton (haha)


THE SHIRT ENDS AT THE ELASTIC





its not tight, it kind of poofs out.





you have to wear a shirt under it!





i'm sorry,





if you have ANY idea what i am talking about, can youtell me what ist called and wear i can buy it!





thank you- sorry again (terrible description!)





NOT A BABYDOLL SHIRT



okay i think i understand what kind of shirt you want :]


it kind of saggs at the breast, and hugs your stomach?...


well you can buy those at stores like 'styles for less' or 'charlotte russe' or you also just go on a shopping trip to your mall and go into girly clothes stores. i hope i helped











i wonder if we're talking about the same shirt..........

Do high waisted skirts look ok on tall women?

I have really long slim legs, im about 5 10"


I love them, but i dont want to appear taller then i allready am!



Yes definitely. Just don't wear them with heels, I recommend gladiator sandals or any pair of cute sandals you have. High waisted skirts will accentuate your waist, making you appear curvier, not taller. In fact, they sometimes make your torso look shorter, sometimes. At least, it seems so for me.




Yes they do tend to make you appear even taller by increasing the leg/torso ratio. If you want to look your height or shorter then stick to mid or low waist skirts and pants.





Or if you do wear the skirt, then stick with flats and wear a slightly longer shirt over the top.





Hope this helps.




High waisted skirts will make you look taller, and leaner.


I think it's a good thing :) My friend is 6'0" and she wears them, which makes her look super model-ish.

Does everyone know about the taliban scarf that are the new style? is there a right and a wrong way to wear it?

I got this new scarf called the taliban scarf on monday after school, and my friend told me that I looked cute with one on because I had tried hers on. But when I got to school, everyone was saying how I look funny with it on, that I don't know how to where it, and that it's not my style. My style is a "girly girl". Must everything you where be part of style? Does it matter if I look funny with it? Even though I look like I don't know how to where does it means that I don't?



You and your best friend probably have similar tastes. So she liked it more than the kids at school.





It just depends if you're into those kinds of things.





I think if you wear it right - with lots of confidence - you will look great.




You need to put that scarf in the back of your closet and never let it touch your head again. You don't want to be labeled a "rag head" behind your back; besides if you can't pull of the look what is the point. Seriously, give it up.




the taliban is a terrorist organisation. You shouldnt be wearing anything they influenced. Its a slap in the face to our brave troops and to all the people who died in 9/11




Personally, I don't like them. My school's dress code won't even allow them, and I go to public school.

At 47 years old, did i age well?

I still have hair and just a little salt sprinkled in. I keep fit in the gym. So am i holding off the years pretty well?





Click on 360 profile for a close up



Yep! You look great! What's with the puckered lips though? Weird!




Yeah, you're lookin' pretty good, homie! Keep up the good work! Hellll, I need to get my assss in shape! Don't let my handsome avatar fool ya! I'm 41 and gettting as big as the damn national debt! Sheeeiiiitttt.




couldn't click but from your pics nt bad




Sure :)




Ya i guess but stay of the make up and p.s i still wouldnt sleep with you




Yeah, I suppose so!

Can my sunglasses be fixed? if so where can i get them fixed?

My polycarbonate lense of my sunglasses has got a massive scratch in it, i have no idea how it got there. Is it possible to have it fixed? if so, any ideas on where i could get it fixed? They cost 20 so i would rather have them fixed cheaply than have to by yet another pair.



Surely 20 is more worthwhile to replace them? Did you mean 200?





The one piece visor type will be difficult to repair, effectively you would have to replace the whole pair. You could try an expensive polishing job, I know it's technically possible using progressively finer grit sand paper, then to use diamond polishing wheels at 30 micron and then 10 micron.





If they are the separate lens type such as Rayban Wayfarers and Aviators you probably could remove that lens.




I am sure I can help you ,pls add my msn ,and I will recommend the fashion pic you need ,because I don know how to put pic here.

No once a scratch is in the glass it's there for good your better off getting another pair of sunglasses.

You and your mum a weird....

How would you describe my style? Please answer! Someone took away my question last time!!!?

I have black hair with cinnamon highlights that goes to the middle of my back, peach skin, and really dark eyes. I shop at Nordstrom, Forever21, Victoria's Secret, and Sanrio. I dress mostly in dresses, trench coats, heels, boots, pearls, designer stuff, and Hello Kitty stuff. Colors I like to wear are shades of purple, black, gray, white, and red. Colors I really don't like are pink, orange, and yellow.



I would say young, trendy a mix of classic style with a little edge. :o)




Scenester.




probably preppy with more dark colored clothing




I'd probably say preppy and trendy,




Cute preppie




REAL preppy, not all that Hollister crap. Classy ^_^




classic girly/ hip chic

Where can i get JORDAN socks?

there is this store at portland and the store is calles jordan and there all kind of stuff there




Nike outlet

Hollister or Abercrombie?

Which is your favorite? and why?


I like tanks and shorts from Hollister and bags from Abercrombie..



Abercrombie, their stuff is much more durable and lasting, they have lots of styles and i like how their clothes fit me, its much more classy, hollister is more of a beach/street enviroment clothing




I like and shop at both but honestly if you look at a&f and then look at hco they have the same stuff they[ only differences are hollister is general less expensive and if it said abercrombie down the side it would say hollister down the side instead lol.




They are the same company.


Literally, they are the same clothes with different logos.


RUEHL No.925 and Gilly Hicks, which you've probably never heard of, are from the same company as well.





How can you prefer one to the other?


Unless you prefer moose to seagulls.




abercrombie. sexier.




abercrombie babe i love the hot guys hollister is cool and great for the price:)

Do you like high waisted shorts?

Who do you think they look best on?


Do you think they look weird?


Do you really like them and think they are cute?(:



If you have the right body, high waisted pants look very classy. They go cute with the right top, like a ruffled tank top thats silky or something. It looks sophisticated and high fashion. I love them.


xoxo




It depends on what style person it is (prep, grung, etc) and it depends on the type of shirt and shoes they wear with them.





It would look bad someone with big hips.





Sure, it's cute if it's done right.




they look good on skinny people.


maybee they look a bit weird. you just need to make the right outfit.


idk if i like them, i've never tried them on before.




EEEWWWWW!!!! ok NO! they look tttly weird! especily to guys!




NO




not many people can pull them off, so I wouldn't suggest trying.




they look good on tall and skinny people. you usually tuck your shirt in
