i'm doing a play next week that is set in the 50's, but my only problem is i have no clue as to what the every day style was back then! the only two i faintly know of are those t-shirt dresses or the overly-high waisted skirts. dose anyone know of any other trends? also where can i find clothing like this, besides thrift stores? thank you so much for your help!
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=50%27s+clothes
Poodle skirts, swing dresses etc.

Grease was in the 1950's
Your best bet is to get a poodle skirt.
*make one
*go to a costume store
*thrift stores might be your only option depending on where you live.
hope i helped!
research on google.

how do you get people to ask you questions?
thanks:)
If someones looking around, and they come appon a question and read your answer they can be like wow, that person is great i'll ask her my questiona!
Answer honestly and try looking up or researching answers to help back up what your saying.
But, be aware that most people, including myself, prefer to get more than one persons oppinion on a question so they just ask it to everyone.
Good luck, hope i helped

I need to think of a going-away present for my boyfriend who is going to California for a surfing competition, and right after that college in another city. I need something that he'd actually like or use. Some of his interests are surfing, photography, frisbee and music.
ANY suggestions are helpful, because I don't have a clue...
btw, I have very limited time to think of something
Get him a Frisbee and decorate it. Make it all about you, so he won't forget =]. Get a disposible camera and take all these pictures of things he likes or special things in your relationship. Example: The spot where you first kissed, he asked you out, first said i love you. Anything. Even take pictures of you! Make him a CD for the trips. Put songs on that are like 'your' song. Get him a mini surfboard from the local hobby lobby, walmart, one you can paint. And decorate it! -- I don't know about that one. lol
but i'm sure you'll like one of these or you can do all.
hope i helped!

im in college and whenever i go out i usually bring a purse with me ( and im usually the only one of my friends to bring one ) but i need things when i go to parties like my phone..camera..keys..makeup ect. i was wondering if i should start carrying a clutch? i have some wristlets but they just dont seem to be able to fit a digital camera and cell phone lol. when i see girls wearing clutches they're usually wearing dresses..which i dont normally wear. so my question is.......would it look okay to wear a clutch handbag with jeans and a nice top? dressy outfits but not a dress?
sorry this is so confusing =]
YES!
Personally, i think it looks better with jeans. Expeccially, skinny with weges. Be careful about losing it though!

Ive been told that tattoo's ruin job prospects. However, i allready have a couple of tattoo's, and want more, BUT, i want to be either a psychologist, or lawyer when older? so will tattoo's prevent me from doing that?
It depends where you have them. I know that if my lawyer or psyhologist walked in with tattoos on their brests or arms I wouldn't wnat them to either represent me or help me. Make sure that it's the right disicion when you get one. Think about the place and wether or not you'll be able to cover it up.

I am a 25 year old woman who for the past year has been involved with a married man. He is 20 years older then me and has 2 kids...both of them in their teenage years. He has been married to his wife for 20 years. Our affair started off drunken sex and now its I love you, I wish I could be with you. I do have very strong feelings for him and I believe he has the same for me. He says his wife is pulling away from him and he feels like she wants someone different, as does he. He says that once his youngest kid goes off to collage he really thinks things between him and his wife will end and that the only reason he believes they are still together is the kids. I don't know what to think.. Can there ever be a future between us? Is he using me for my body? Is he seeing other girls too? Also, I'm still very young, I want children and marriage. He has already done all that, will he be willing to do it again? I'm just very confused..And I know I brought this on myself but please any advise would be great!!
He's not going to leave his wife. He's using you. You diserve SO much better, go find a man that will appresheate you and not use you, just for a fling. He won't want kids, think about it. By the time his youngest goes off to college its going to be around 5 years, maybe a little more, maybe a little less, but lets go with 5. Then he'll be 45. You'll want to take at least 2 years to move in together and then you know make sure marrige is what you guys want together. THen he'll be 47. After the year of relaxing he'll be 48. You'll be 33. I don't think that he'll want to go through what he did with his wife agian. If you don't love someone then you leave. You don't just satay for the kids. He's using you. Got get a man that you diserve.

Ok so I like this guy(Alex) and my best guy friend asked me out(Devlin).
Now I couldn't say no to my bestie! That would be harsh! But I didn't know that Alex the guy I've liked for 11months likes me! He asked me out and I had to say no, it realy sucks cause I don't want to ruin mine and Devlin's friendship but I dont want to go out with him...I want to be with Alex(Who/I only gets top see me/him between 1am and 5:30am whitch sucks for sleeping!).
I like Devlin but more as an older brother..and I love Alex. How do I let Dev down without hurting much if at all??
It will hurt Devlin more if you lead him on, and make his feelings stronger. He'll understand if he's your 'bestie'. The only reason it will be weird is if you make it weird. Make the effort to make things go back to the way they were. Explain to him what you just said to us, tell him that you see him more as a big brother. He'll understand, but don't ignore him for fear it will be aquward. It will be, unless you break the ice. Just act like nothing happened, he'll get the picture and things will go back to normal.

I recently lost some weight and I noticed my bras weren't fitting correctly. So, I went to Victoria's Secret and I got sized. The woman said that I was either a 40D or a 38DD which was fine with me :). I eventually tried on both sizes and they were both falling off my body. The 38DD was okay for a while but then it would just... Slip down... I assumed that the VS lady measured wrong so I went to Nordstrom's and got measured there. That woman said I was a 38C. This made sense to me. So, I was wearing my 38C bra and I had double boobs it was so tight! It left angry red marks and the minute I lifted my arms up the underwire would rise up. It's so uncofortable! Should I be measured again, or am I just wearing my bras incorrectly?
When you get mesured, go try on bras after lift your arms up for fitting. I would go one more time and tell them about the whole one to tite one to big. They'll know what to do. Try on some in the middle. Maybe a 38D.

i havent been wearing a bra for a while now cuz all i do is stay home and they kinda bother me
1 does that mean theres something wrong gonna happen to my breasts... sooner or someday?
2will they get really low like a grandmas?
3 should i continue to do it or wear it every day twenty four seven?
You should wear a bra, otherwise your breasts will sag. You don't want to wear one 24/7 it's not healthy. Your breasts need time to air out, so if you wear a bra during the day then you sleep without one. I would wear a sports bra during the day and then nothing at home. Try getting out more though. Volunteer somewhere local. Have fun with your life. Live each day like it's your last.

13/m sorry for the question being so long
lately one or two of my friends have been real dicks to me at first i thought i was just a joke but now they just wont stop teasing me, if its not one person its the other and they tease me about little things like i need to get a hair cut or i dont have the latest brand clothes
at first it didnt bother me but now its really getting to me because my grades have been lowering and last week i spent the whole week of because i didnt want to listen to his constant comments on my behaviour or how i have a really crap car and i cant afford to get a new one
and ive talked to my parents and theyve talked to my teacher and principal about it and the principal talked to the guy and said if he keeps teasing people and stuff like that(because my teacher told me hes been doing it to other people, but i havent noticed that) and still he wont stop doing it its like he doesnt care about anyones feeling except his best friend (btw his best friend does it to me but only sometimes)
so thats about it
btw please dont be saying stuff like just go confront him cause i know what hes like hell just laugh at me
and also please dont say just go away from him because he hangs around with my friends and i want to stay with my friends
thanks in advance
Try just ignoring him. WHATEVER YOU DO DON'T STOOP DOWN TO HIS LEVEL. Who cares what he thinks?! He's a jerk, so it's not like your even the slightest bit interested in him. If he says something mean you can be like, okay, whatever. Or you can go along with the joke, if he says your car is crappy, just be like, yeah i know! Just go along on it. Eventually, hopefully, he'll stop because it doesn't bothor you.

does anyone know the commercical for acne that is like "chocolate is bad for you" myth. and everythind do you know the actual website?
It's truthaboutzits.com
but if you type that in it pops up the website for what there saying for yout o buy, Differin.
But, it still provides you with the information that you are promised to get when going to the site.
I'm 17 years old and a junior in highschool. I recently went for a physical and realized that I weigh 95 pounds. I'm 5'8", and the doctor said that I was way underweight. She said that I may be coming anorexic, however this is the first time that that issue has ever come up. I eat EVERYTHING, and the reason I weigh that much is I play four sports, and I'm constantly doing something. What should I do to get everyone to stop worrying about me? And what should I do about my weight?
You may not be getting enough calories in the day. If your not anorexic don't care what people think. Start worring about eating more fruits, veggys. Drink 3 glasses of 8oz. of milk. Feed your mucsels what they need. You might have some health problems. Talk to your doctor and family about previous family members who have had a low weight. "The weight you entered is lower than may be healthy for your age and height. Ask a health care provider about your weight. They may ask about the foods you eat, your level of physical activity, and your family history. They can also determine your rate of growth and check for other health problems." I entered your weight and hight at http://www.mypyramid.gov/mypyramid/index.aspx
THaTS WHAT came up. Explore the site. LEarn about eating right.
hope i helped
and as long as you don't have an eating disorder I would focus more on getting your body to a normal level, rather than people talking.

My friend has lied to me so much. I don't even trust her anymore. So we were gonna tell each other who we like and she said she would tell me if I told her first. So I did. She lied to me and told me she liked another guy. She doesn't know that I know she lied to me. I found out and I can't exactly tell her I found out because of how I did find out. And she likes the same guy as me. I wouldn't care at all if she likes the same guy, big deal. But the thing is, she lied to me. And she told her other friend who I like and that she does too. They were talking about me and I always talked about him. Like how he talks to me and stuff and that she thinks I'm lying about that. I don't know what to tell her or what to say. Please help me! I'm so confused of what to say to her, it makes me really mad. Thanks and sorry it was so long.
Easy, don't tell her anything more. You can still be friends with her if you want... but if shes going to constently be backstabbing you then why do you want to be? If you do though, just don't tell her anything, you know you can't trust her NOW, learn from what you didn't know then. If she asks who you like, just be like ehh, I don't really like anyone. Or just flat out say I can't trust you because of what happened last time. Maybe confront her?
hope i helped, and learn from this.

So I've had braces on and off for about 5 years and depending on how I gage it, I will have them off near my 17th birthday. Honestly, will I look dumb being in my junior year of HS with braces? Do other people at that age have braces? Are braces even that big of a deal anymore...? Are they that hideous? Do people notice them? I feel really self-conscious now for some reason, I don't know why. Maybe because my other friends are getting their braces off. Am I the only one?
It's not a big deal. Some people are adults and have braces. DO everythingg your dentist says, like use the rubber bands when he tells you so you can get your braces off earlier. Don't be self-conscious its not that big of a deal, come off confident and you'll eventually feel it. Guys like that. It's okay, your not the only one, don't be scared.

My boyfriend and i are ready to have sex, but I'm a little scared. He says he can get me birth control to take, and we would also use a condom, of course. I'm not worried about any diseases (we're clean). I'm only worried about getting pregnant. By using condoms and taking birth control, am I really at any risk?
There is still a risk, but if you use both a condom aand birth contorl there is less of a risk. Most birth controls take at least a good 3 weeks to like 'kick in' or 'work'. Also, I would get your own Birth control, you could be allergic to something in it, there are soooo many problems that can happen, so get it yourself if anything.
be safe!

Oh kay so my boyfriend wants to like have sex with me and shit-i mean he already fingered me and i gave him a BJ but i don't know if i should have sex with him i am only 13 and i don't want it to get around my school! HELP!!
I don't think your ready. NOt beacuse of your age, because of the way you sound. Don't do it. First of all, It is illegal. Second of all, its going to get around school cuz your boyfriend is going to tell all his friends, because he "scored". You know? Well don't do it becuse i know its going to bite you in the back. Say no, and if he still pressures you, then thats when you need to question weather or not he is a good guy and if you want to be going out with him.

What age should you start having sex? I really just have to know because I'm afraid I might do it too early or too late. Thanks for the time.
I think that when ever YOU think you are ready is the right time. If you feel scared about doing it, then obviously, its to early. Who cares about to late. When you find the right guy who makes you feel safe, and you feel like you want to go to that level, then THAT is when YOU are ready. It changes from person to person. Stay smart, Stay safe. Don't do anything your not ready for or that you don't want to do. Don't let a guy talk you into doing something that you don't want to do.
