Ask hailebop!




Did you ever wake up and wonder when your life became a soap opera? A bizzare mixture between 'Dawson's Creek' and 'Days of our Lives'?



I know I've had that feeling - that it's just all too dramatic and ridiculous, and wouldn't it be nice to go and under a nicely-furnished rock for a while? So, whilst I do not promise or claim to be an expert on how teenage boys minds work or how you can uncode your best friend's baffling behaviour, I'll always attempt to empathise and offer some honest words of advice.



I am 21, with a fairly dysfunctional life as a artsy student type. I've recently graduated with a degree in Philosophy, and am spending time working in the law before returning to university for further study. I still don't know what I want to do with my life, but I like where I am at the moment. I like shoes, bad television, chocolate cheescake and pretty things.



I am very busy at the moment, attempting to fund my life as a postgraduate (that's grad school to the Americans). I do still stop by quite a lot to help out with the admin stuff, but my column is pretty lame and inactive. Boo-hiss. I will however still endeavour to answer any questions that are sent my way, so feel free to send questions to my inbox.





Frequently Asked Questions


Actually, I made them up. But they are questions that I've seen more than once around this site (and, indeed, in the real world), and so have created general responses to them, linked below. It's a little sparse at the moment, but I'll be adding to the list as I think of more questions (and, er, answers to them).

does anyone know anything about fashions in the 1920's? its a project i have to do! send me some websites if you can or just tell me facts i am
netsirk07 thanks!!!!
(ill rate 5's)



The 1920s saw change in fashion after WWI - dressees were very low waisted, and hemlines rose. Short hair (and often hats) on women was also extremely fashionable, but this was made up for with very feminine outfits, with floaty skirts of varying length and sequins.

Me telling you this however does not count as research for a project. You need to look these things up yourself and find some good citable sources. It's also much easier to describe things having actually looked at drawings. Have you tried google? I googled '1920s fashion' and the first site was http://www.rambova.com/fashion/fash4.html, which looks to be very informative.

It's not hard. There is a huge wealth of information on the internet and in your local library (there's a list of useful books on the subject here - http://www.fashion-era.com/online/online_library_8.htm which you could look for in the library), and it really doesn't take any effort at all to perform a web search, or even an imagine search at google for a large number of results. Good luck with your project.
