~Perfumes smell different on different people. So don’t choose a perfume just because you find it smells good on a friend. Find your own scent. ~If you really want to buy a fragrance as a gift, you are going to have to do a little snooping. Find out what they are already using! Never surprise someone with a fragrance that they aren't familiar with. Chances are, it won't be appreciated. Fragrance is a very personal thing. ~ The scent you wear may not smell the same as you age. Keep this in mind when you go shopping for a new perfume and try a new smell rather than the same thing you bought two decades ago. ~Perfume Types~ Depending on what link you click on the ever dependable internet,you have 5/6/7 basic types of fragrance! I'm going to list the 6 most common ones! Some are a mix of two types. . . Floral & Fruity,Woody & Floral. It will be useful to note ther are other types of scents that make up perfume that may not have been mentioned! ~Click on Links to learn more : http://www.perfumeguide.co.uk/Perfume_Guide_Perfume_Categories.html OR http://www.shopwiki.co.uk/wiki/Perfume Cologne Buying Guide For Men : http://www.shopwiki.co.uk/wiki/Cologne 1 Like |

~There is more to perfume than just spritzing it on and praying the scent will last throughout the day. There are many rules to perfume that people have either never learned or even knew existed. To some people some of the rules of perfume will seem very basic but whether you think you know everything there is about perfume or not, it is likely there are a few(Ooook maybe a heck of a lot) simple hints you may have missed over the years to help you make the most of the scent you wear. ~If you want to buy a fragrance as a gift, you are going to have to do a little snooping. Find out what the individual is/ are already using! Never surprise someone with a fragrance that they aren't familiar with. Chances are, it won't be appreciated. Fragrance is a very personal thing.

Janice Dickinson will be on. . .that woman is so crude,i want to watch her antics on the show! ~If they showed half as much team work on their tasks ,i wud have admired their effort,ganging up against Kelley was just out of order but all part of the game i suppose. . . ~The reason i think Kelley will be first out is b/c she out of the 3 has stirred things the most,Racheal & Andrew are playing safe for now,so she cud easily be a target! maedan: ~Really?

maedan: ~When i heard the voice over for "Come Not Dine With Me" I was like "Meadan is going to love this!!" ~It was hilarious. . .For a moment i thought BB actually told the newbees to make minging food on purpose. . .that egg omelette! I was sick in my mouth just watching her prepare it!! ~I'm just as curious to see how this ganging up on Kelley in particular will unfold!! She does comes across as fiesty so i dont expect her to back down if take on by the others!! It does Seem tho her competitive personality is going to be an hindrance to her!! I dont think its a bad thing,why the other HM8 seem to be making such a big deal out of it is beyond reason! I bet she'll be the first newbee out as soon as they get a chance to do so. . . ~What's Steve playing at? He's upped his game!! ~Seems the only newbee the other HM8 want to take under their wing is the Nerd! He seems harmless!! |

maedan: ~Hey You! ~Me think all that drama had a lot more to do w/ jealousy than JJ saying she has 7 chins! ~Remember when she commented JJ has brushed his teeth countless times b/c of Kelley? When in actual fact,he was doing his Tree of Temptation task? She'd hinted on all the things she thought JJ was doing different! ~You've got a point there! Josie does have a game plan! I see right thro it now! Imagine an hour's update full of crap!! All that air time just on her & JJ when its not even that interesting to watch! I was fuming!!! If JJ gets evicted no one will even notice she's there!Grown arze woman sucking her thumb! Now i know why her front teeth seem to stand out! ~Yeah i adore Corrin! She's a doll! I've just noticed how really tiny she is! I think she's herself tho. . .one of the most genuine HM8. . . ~What will make a good watch on telly will be her having a go at Keeva/Josie!! |

[color=#770077][font=Comic Sans MS][size=10pt]~I think we'd all agree Flaunting her body with risqué outfits was just a part of Lil Kim's persona so here's to acknowledging the fashion disasters she’s made in her 15-year contribution to hip-hop. ~Lil Kim was never afraid to be different. This rhinestone hair net was an early taste of what was to come. |

sophy09: ~As your prefrence of pairing is skirt,you shud choose a tunic length that either falls below the waist/mid thigh & avoid above the knee length tunics! Straight seams,Empire waist or Asymmetrical style tunics will work better w/ skirts than Kurti/Kimono tunics. For example:the pic you say is similar to yours is the Indian kurti style tunic. ~I cudnt find any pics of Kurti's worn w/ skirt & the handful i cud find all had different types of tunics! ~Kurti worn w/ shorts ~Feel free to push the envelope a lil bit,try out what works for you. . . ~I personally think silk and chiffon tunics work best paired w/ a Pencil Skirt. You might want to look into the types of tunic you buy if you only want to pair it w/ Skirt.

naija_diva: ~You're right on w/ pairing Tunic w/knee length Pencil Skirt. Like you said,she'd prolly get away w/ pairing it w/ the Tunic but going by the type of tunic she has (The Kurti) Im in doubt! That type of tunic usually looks best w/ trousers/leggings. . . ~Anywho with the variety of cuts,colours,designs,shapes,prints & different length available out there,she's bound to find something that works for her since she doesn't particularly want to pair it up with Trousers/Leggings. ~Found this Pic of a Tunic worn w/ Pencil Skirt. . . |

Idowuogbo: ~ You had me The thought does have an embarrassing cringe potential!! It works for chics who are going for the Boho-inspired look. . . long gypsy skirts/ tunic. ~I'd agree Tunics look great w/ all the aforementioned! I love to wear mine on its own/with a Skinny belt holding it down/Tights or w/ shorts ~Never really caught on the idea of wearing it w/ a skirt but after doing a quick research,i've learned Tunics have become more multipurpose and versatile than ever before. I found pics showing there are ways one can pull off wearing a skirt with Tunic w/o looking frumpy if one knows the types of Tunics/skirts that work great together. ~At a quick glance, it looks like a dress, but its actually a tunic top worn over a layered skirt she hiked up to look short.

She'd never pulled guys like JJ . . . whatever that means! She'd mentioned it enuff times! Not to woory.She might well be able to pull guys when she leaves BB!!

It's getting boring! I suppose they're going to bore us w/ that on the update tomorrow. . . ~Shabby implied on BBBM there's something going on b/w them two but they'd rather pursue after BB! Hmm!

Kelley seem to have put herself right in the mix of it too!! The oldies have suddenly become a "United Front"! It usually brings them closer together!I hate that me! It's either they start ganging up on the newbee's or new dynamics are formed! Always happens when they put new HM8's in. . . ~I love seeing the Oldbee's get territorial!! Prolly b/c they know the newbee's have had a chance to see how the public perceive them/what's been written about them & how BB edits the updates. ~Ben is fast becoming a Blabbermouth & is he getting B!tchy or what!! He's baskingin it! Enjoys the role of the Instigator too. . ."Cruella" I enjoy the camp way in which he gossips! His mannerism w/ his hands & the way he tries to imitate the other HM8!
