Oh no! That's my grandfather, My dad is 52! My dad doesn't have rules luckily. His is much more zen his philosophy is "if it makes you happy that is all that matters"

Kennebunkport is one of my favorite OPI colors; tell your dad it's wine, not red. :)

My mum always insisted that I couldn't brush my hair in public - I do it all the time now though!!!

Your mom's nails are the BOMB! We have a special redhead vibe I think, I am wearing a cheetah cardi right now as I am reading this! But I don't have cutre red flats on.

I so love that ring. You've given me the MJ bug, I think.

ahhh your mom's nails are lovely!!!

fashion rules - well, while it wasn't a "rule" my dad vehemently hates anything "unnatural" like dyed hair or pierced ears. If god didn't give you that color or that hole, then you shouldn't have it! Obviously I haven't followed those two, but every time I'd bring home another box of dye he would give me the "I'm disappointed in you" look.

And my mom always yelled at me if my hair wasn't tucked behind my ears. Like, I wasn't allowed to go out unless it was tucked or pinned back because then it was considered "in my face." I hate it like that because my ears look big and goofy that way. I need some pieces out, or all of it pulled up. She still tries to tuck it behind my ears sometimes now.

2010-03-11T13:49:44.367-05:00

Yes - curls!!

Rules - There aren't any rules I can think of that I was told except the classic - not white shoes or purses after labour day and before May 24th.

Rules I've made up for myself somehow...I have a horrible time if I don't match my shoes and purse. I honestly worry about it the whole day. Last summer I bought a bright raspberry pink purse and have been eyeballing pink shoes ever since. Totally ridiculous.

Your grandpa is so cute and stylish !
My grandmother still tells me things I should do or shouldn't... here's a few:
- walk up straight
- don't leave the house with your hair wet, you will look like a maid (?!)
- never wear anything too tight, you will look like your aunt (?!)
-put some make up on
- pull your hair back, must show your eyes

the second kind hurts more but I think that is more fun like you mean?

I totally forgot about messy curls. My hair takes them well.

I love leopard and red together!

I agree about braids. Also what about a messy bun or just adding a few curls and raking through them with your fingers for a sort of wavy look?

I think your Pop is adorable!! I love his rules (although I don't adhere to them myself)!!!
As for your hair, how about integrating braids somehow? That is a very popular style right now.

Leopard+ Red+ Denim= LOVE!!! You look so, so cute! Oh, and I love your Pop. Love him!

The only fashion rule we had in my house (and still have long-distance) is no fake eyelashes. My mom started wearing them at 17 and has worn them for so long she no longer has any of her own and therefore has forbidden me to ever wear them. (I may still give it a shot someday, but will remember to let my real lashes breathe.)

It looks much simpler and faster than the "usual"
smokey eye steps... good purchase.

I love the way you restyle that dress every time you wear it, and this is my most favorite of all of the stylings. Those clogs are so GREAT.

Sorry about your computer! We don't often physically break ours, but now I am going to be more careful when I handle mine.

Sounds pretty cool!

Bummer about the purty computer and I'm just now hearing about Corey Haim. Crazy. I mean, you know people aren't well, but it's still a surprise...

hmm...changing subjects, makeup looks great.

If you oily it will crease. It'll be there but it will crease.
I'm oily. 3 products I love that keep me from creasing.
(it's been 13 hours today and no crease) is urban decay primer potion
but two profits I like even better in order of best
is Mary Kay eye primer i read about it and I can attest it's cheap and it friggin awesome. It's the only thing I use by them.

Mac paint. Get the tube. It'll last you years as it comes in colors and it's awesome I wear it alone all the time I have it in stilife a soft shimmer beige. Your shadow wot budge. The Mary Kay Is cheaper and colorless but I swich up because I like how mac is shimmery.

2010-03-10T17:53:59.805-05:00

It looks really good. I'm intrigued, but was wondering how creamy it actually is, and did it stick around all day? I know you suggested some powder to help with the creasing.
I have the oiliest skin ever, and whatever make-up I put on is usually gone or running by the time I get home from work, so I'm wondering how well it stays put.

2010-03-10T17:18:52.598-05:00

I hope your laptop can be saved! I'm not usually a breaker, but about a year and a half ago I left my laptop on the ground (so stupid) and accidentally stepped on it! The LCD was completely kaput, and they quoted around $1,000 to replace it! I ended up just getting a new computer. :( Of course, I am now hyper vigilant about where I leave my laptop.

2010-03-10T16:29:27.138-05:00

I broke my computer once. The monitor. When I was in university, a girl in my dorm was killed in a car accident, and a few of the other girls in the dorm took up a collection to help her family with expenses as best we could. When they came to my place, I was writing a paper in the living room area (we had apartment style dorms, complete with kitchen), and very carefully set my laptop on the end table, hopped up to go to my room to get my wallet, and tripped over the cord, pulling my computer down to the floor and me in a big heap on the floor. I managed not to cry until I had given my donation and the collecting girls had left, then I had a good old fashioned pity party. I then had to deal with the broken screen I could only see half of for nearly a year because I couldn't afford to get it fixed or buy a new one.

Very fetching, especially the closed look.
