Sliver Glasses…

Lilliputian Reading Glasses Wink At Your Inner James Bond Sliver Glasses...Lilliputian Reading Glasses Wink At Your Inner James Bond Nobody does it better than Bond,James Bond. He has a mini-gadget for everything. Well, 007 inspiration for those things great and small must have been in the dreams over at Micro Vision Optical when they developed reading glasses so skinny that they slip into their own pen, mascara wand-size tube, or what could be confused as a silver-tone cigarette lighter case.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2000…

Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2000... do something! October 2001 Dear Sharon: I am a junior in high school and while searching the web, I saw your page related to Breast Cancer Awareness Month. My mother passed away from the illness two and a half years ago after a 12-year battle. My grandmother died of ovarian cancer and I have many other relatives, friends and neighbors who have been affected by cancer- especially breast cancer. Since Breast Cancer Awareness Month is October, I was wondering if it is possible to have some kind of awareness in my school for that month. Do you have any suggestions? I was wondering if money was collected could it be donated toward a cancer society? Thank you -- Striving For A Cure

Squish Cellulite Away…

New Contender in Anti-Cellulite Treatment Arena Get your face out of that scrunch! Yes, it's the return of green eyeshadow and you will love it. Sponge Bob may be the hottest thing to hit the airwaves rightnow, but that doesn't make for a case to enter a Bikini Bottom look-alike contest. So we have… Globbed on the gook. Rubbed in the cream. Ingested the herbs. Loffahed our loins. Guzzled gallons of water. Rolled in coffee grounds. Spent thousands on salon treatments. Cursed relatives for passing on crummy genes. Have had more treatment massages than at a Jiffy Wax Jamboree. Not to mention, exercise till the cows come home. And the cellulite remains. Well, here's a new clinically proven method to

Who Can Turn the World On With Her Smile?…

Move Over "The Thinker," Here Comes Mary Richards. Taste The Hamptons-Recipe to take a bite out of style from The Barefoot Contessa. Okay, so she was a thirtyish TV icon thirtyish years ago. But Mary Richards still rules. That's Mary, the stylish lead character, in Mary Tyler Moore's eponymous named Seventies hit television show . No matter how ever so slightly dated the single, independent Mary now appears, there's always something modern about the way she wears her flares, belts her shirtdress, or how her hair flips. Most important, there's something completely empowering about the way she tosses her beret. The Wall Street Journal* writes- on it's front page- that a bronze statue of tam-tossing Mary Richards will be placed

Turn Back, Go Forward…

designer vintage clothing redux Vintage hungry fashionistas get what they want- designer reissues! When Mom tells you that she once had a dress just like that, she's not kidding.

Sonia Rykiel is introducing a "Modern Vintage" collection for fall with a limited run of archival favorites. Adidas, Levi's, Lacoste, and Valentino will also be reissuing. Norma Kamali has been at it for a while. When other designers

Going Commando… The Bare Facts

Going Commando… The Bare Facts I just want to know is it okay to go commando to get rid of visible panty lines? And, can I go to work in the office, barelegged in strappy stiletto sandals with red painted toenails? --(Cork, Ireland) Jeez, sweetie, what kind of "office" do you work in? It's really all about the phraseology, isn't it? Going commando (not wearing undies for those not in the know) is perfectly fine, as long as you are comfortable with it. Many women can feel a little drafty and prefer wearing a flesh-colored seamless thong or clean-lined panty to avoid the dreaded V.P.I. over exposure. You can also go bareback with pantyhose. The bottom line is all in
