I do this dress shopping. It's so annoying :lo l:.
Me too! I just imagine something that ACTUALLY fits right. It never happens!!!
Quote from red333 :
I was on the Veendam for Alaska, but this was about 10 years ago. I loved it. I was in an inbeween age where I wasn't old enough to drink but too old for the kids stuff. It was still a lot of fun, though. The food was amazing. Ironically, my favorite foods were the fresh pineapple and pineapple sorbet for dessert. I ate so much pineapple my tongue swelled! People were dressed VERY nicely for formal nights. I remember my mom made me get a new dress, and she wore a really nice St. John's dress that she had gotten especially for the occasion. I remember formal night really well. We stuck to the food in the main dining room and always enjoyed it. My mom's a vegetarian, my dad eats everything, and I only eat chicken. There was always something that made all of us happy on the menu (and I also remember loving the bread!).

Where are you thinking about going? PM me if you have any more questions!

I lived in Japan for a little while. I completely fell in love with the people and the culture and would highly recommend visiting there if you have the chance. Seriously, going there should be a top priority!
Ohhhh - I will definitely be getting in touch with you with some questions soon! Right now i am busy spending money I shouldn't be while I am pretending to do something on my second day at work laugh out loud

I am debating between the HAI and this [folica.com] Solia. Any input? I doubt I would ever use a crimper...
Quote from GoHeels :
I always took my DS everywhere I went. He was flying at a few months old. If I were in your situation, I wouldn't hesitate to take a 4 or 5 year old to Japan. If they start traveling at an early age, they take it in stride.

I hope you're having a good day. :h ug:



Thanks



LOL on the pineapple. :lo l: It sounds like a great cruise. This cruise goes to their private island, Aruba, Curacao, cruises the Panama Canal, Panama, & Costa Rica. We've already been to Aruba & Curacao, but look forward to visiting again. The real reason we chose this cruise is because cruising the Panama Canal is high on our bucket list. We want to see it, before they finish the expansion.

Living in Japan must have been amazing. Everyone should experience different cultures, if possible.


Thanks. I haven't worn Keds since high school. I ordered a couple pair & am looking forward to trying them again.
Yesterday wasn't too bad and today was a lot easier. I have no idea how I am ever going to have time to clean my house again though!!!

I've owned the ghd, chi, fhi, sedu, and solia. My personal favorite iron is the sedu. It's this one.

I've never used the hai but the solia iron is nice. If just buying an iron without considering the crimper, I;d buy another solia. I don't know about the hai.

I remember you recommending the Sedu now...hmmm...decisions decisions. I'm trying to stay cheap as I just bought a new hair dryer the other day (and a ton of clothes, makeup, VS stuff, shoes, and other random stuff) and I should NOT be spending money!!!

I'll probably try the solia.


GRRRRRRRRRRR.

Why oh why oh WHY DO I ALWAYS FORGET TO USE A CASHBACK SITE UNTIL AFTER I COMPLETE MY ORDER!!!!!!!!

So, I came into work today and checked my bank account to begin paying bills and setting up a budget. Instead I ordered a flat iron and face cleanser. I haven't even gotten to the Smashbox LDL email yet. Facepalm

Oh, I ordered the HAI because I am a cheap ass and will be putting the crimper on eBay to offset the cost and make it more "justifiable." laugh out loud I figure after all is said and done including the magazine rebate, it should make the flat iron and the clips I bought about $20 for everything Smilie

I'm buying more bras. I have to send a few back I ordered last time. Didn't fit. Booooo.
It's hard to buy stuff, when you're not sure about sizing. I'm having the same problem with clothes. I just hope I guess right. You did good, if you guessed & any of them fit.

That's so pretty. I wonder if it would look right, if I sized down to get a slimmer fit. Scratchchin As I've mentioned before, loose fitting tops make me look heavier. I like the fact that the Nile color would be easy to match a bra with.
