[Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 11:11pm] off_highstreet [xgingex] Have any of you got foreign boyfriends? What was it like when you met their parents? I'm going to stay with my boyfriend and his parents in France after Christmas and I am POOING it! Neither of them speak English, his mum doesn't sound very easy going and my French goes all Allo Allo when I'm nervous. It's going to be scary enough as it is without the cultural/language barriers. Soooo, experiences please? Best/worst case scenarios? All advice welcomed. 1 drop a heart . break a name

Make-up in photographs [Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 10:49pm] off_highstreet [rockandroll_] Hey, Just looking for tips on photogenic make-up. Just saw pics from a recent night out and my face looks totally weird- really shiny and my undereye concealer is obvious that I feel embarrassed. Yet I know in "real life" I looked fine. SO, what make-up do you use to ensure you look ok in photos? 9 drop a heart . break a name

Woodbury Common New York. [Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 9:09pm] off_highstreet [ashzombie] I'm going to New York for Christmas on the 23rd for a week, during which time I'll be heading to Woodbury Common. I'm on the hunt for a Chloe bag - I know there's a Chloe shop,and I've got coupons for when I'm there for an extra 20% off any spend. (this isn't really important information,but anyway.) Has anyone been to Woodbury Common?! Am I going to die of shopping overload, or am I going to be moping at wasting a day somewhere crap?! 7 drop a heart . break a name

paris! [Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 5:06pm] off_highstreet [yrloveisaverb] hello lovely ladies, i wonder if anyone could suggest a funky, fairly central hotel in paris. i'm a recent graduate and looking to visit in march with one of my best friends from uni now that we are living apart *woe*. i've been having a bit of a browse around today and haven't a clue what to go for. reccomendations from others who have been on a girly paris trip (admittedly trying to re-create carrie bradshaw in paris a little bit minus the creepy artist!) would be amazing. heaps load of thanks in advance! xoxo 5 drop a heart . break a name

Removing nail varnish remover [Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 5:05pm] off_highstreet [kisseslikemusic] My housemate has spilled nail varnish remover all over my laptop. It doesn't seem to have damaged the laptop or stopped it functioning properly but there's a huge stain across the keyboard area. I am really pissed and I don't want a mark over my computer. Does anyone know how I can clean it off? Thanks! 11 drop a heart . break a name

ipod help [Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 3:22pm] off_highstreet [ohjeane] my ipod has loads of space left, but isn't putting every song/artist that is ticked on itunes onto my ipod - is there any reason why it's doing this, it's so annoying going to listen to a band which i have on my itunes then finding it's not on my ipod! 6 drop a heart . break a name

where to buy wool in London [Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 2:23pm] off_highstreet [fuzzyedges] I'm getting creative for Christmas - where should I go for wool? Everything in John Lewis is pretty expensive and a google search suggested I Knit in Waterloo but I wasn't impressed with their range. At home in Bolton I've always gone to a shop in the market where you can get enough wool for a scarf for about £3...not looking for amazing quality 100% merino or anything, just a big range and cheapish. Any suggestions? 3 drop a heart . break a name

mac pigment samples [Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 12:41am] off_highstreet [noeledmonds] Does anyone know somewhere online I could purchase samples of mac pigments? I have bought a few in the past from lj communities (thriftstoreuk) but I had a look around and I couldn't find anyone selling them any more. My googling was fruitless and I've checked ebay as well to no avail. I have found this site but its in the US and I don't know if they would arrive by Christmas (they're for my sister) Any help would be appreciated, I didn't think it would be this hard to find them :( tia 5 drop a heart . break a name

[Sunday December 6th, 2009 at 12:51am] off_highstreet [grandamere] could anyone recommend good cheap eyeshadows? i've never really used eye makeup before and don't want to get something that's expensive that i end up not liking. in particular i was looking for a silver colour, but any colour is fine :) thanks! :) x 18 drop a heart . break a name

Love from Australia [Saturday December 5th, 2009 at 7:42pm] off_highstreet [spookygal] I was wondering if someone had already tried on the new Love From Australia wedges? I asked a while ago info about the UGG cardi but finally decided not to buy them (thanks for the info btw!). So now I am kinda leaning toward those... I like the fact that they are not completely flat. 9 drop a heart . break a name

Lockerz/Desire Clothing [Saturday December 5th, 2009 at 6:52pm] off_highstreet [probably_never] I was just wondering (actually any time anyone brings it up, i want to ask but never actually do) - has anyone received any of the magical goodies from lockerz.com? if so, what did you get and for how many points? I'm just asking because it sounds too good to be true, and some real experiences with the site would be helpful! tia x EDIT: While I'm on this, I might as well ask if anyone's bought anything from www.desireclothing.co.uk? i've seen some nice day dresses on there for pretty cheap, so any info regarding sizing/quality/service would be great! 2 drop a heart . break a name

[Saturday December 5th, 2009 at 10:29am] off_highstreet [annainalbion] 1. I'm looking for a really nice cloche hat in grey/black/navy for the winter months! Any recommendations? 2. If any of you haven't signed up for LOCKERZ, you simply must. Just by answering a different question every day you earn points - and points mean prizes! There's electronics like Macbooks, tickets to music gigs and all sorts on there. I still have invites left so just leave your email if you want one. 36 drop a heart . break a name

Style Shake [Friday December 4th, 2009 at 5:54pm] thehighstreet [mippy] Has anyone here used Styleshake.com? They give me the ability to design a specific dress that I can't find in the shops, but I'm nervous about trying them without seeing reviews. I'm specifically wondering how they fit on big busts, and how long they are (I'm tall so some high-street clothes are indecently short on me!) 5 drop a heart . break a name

[Friday December 4th, 2009 at 11:09pm] off_highstreet [swirlingmuse] Another mobile phone post I'm sorry to say! But most of the ones under the tags seem to be about contracts, iphones etc The screen on my old phone has just died and I haven't got a clue when it comes mobiles as I don't really like them and only use one for texting and emergencies. I want to keep my SIM card and stay on Orange Pas As You Go and I'd prefer a 'slider' version if you know what I mean. Are there any models in particular you'd recommend? I don't want to spend much. 1 drop a heart . break a name

[Friday December 4th, 2009 at 10:12pm] off_highstreet [samanthajanex] Hi all :) Does anyone know of any reputable websites that sell designer/high-end items at discounted prices? Mainly interested in discounted make-up and toiletries but would also be interested in designer clothing and accessories. Many thanks :) 9 drop a heart . break a name
