about

Just call me Calli.


I like Jamie Bell and Cillian Murphy. I like Friday Night Lights and Desperate Housewives and Dead Like Me. I like writing, roleplaying in writing communities. I like reading: Harry Potter, Tom Robbins, Kurt Vonnegut, House of Leaves. I love House of Leaves. I like Adam Pascal in Rent. I like messing around in photoshop. I'm not too fantastic, but I like it. I like chemistry. I love Audrey Hepburn.


I dislike poetry. I dislike physics.


I am indifferent about Twilight.


I know nothing about romantic relationships. But I have friends. I have family. And I like them.


If that helps at all, there it is. If not, there it is.

My mom wont let me wear makeup because she wants me to wait until im 16 like she had to do but like im pretty much old enough to wear makeup . basically every single girl in mah school wears makeup . and i ask her and shes like no your gunnah start wearing makeup when your 16 like i had to do . i dont get her at all . every summah while im in the Dominican Republic mah cousin does mah makeup and when my mom sees me with makeup on shes like omg you look so cute . and then i ask her and shes still says no and i get so maddd . >=[

Maybe she's afraid you'll apply it wrong and end up looking provocative (I have no idea how old you are now anyway). Maybe instead of just asking her IF you can wear make up, ask her to just teach you how to put it on and make it look nice. It might make her feel a little better.

Hope I help!

where are some really cute clothes to wear in the summer...they can't be to expensive also a really cute bag would be cool i don't care about the price for the bag.


thankssss!!!

For summer, pastels are really cute. So are earthy tones. Match up summer dresses, shorts, skirts, and shirts.
Graphic tshirts too. Those are good for anything.

Because Delia's (http://store.delias.com/frontpage.do?topnavTrack=frontpage&incmpid=TB) is a great store, I'll give you some links of cute summer clothes from there.

I recently bought cowboy boots, they're not like full-blown boots, just casual, but I do not know what to wear with them.

This is what they look like:
http://www.kaboodle.com/reviews/rampage-slouch-leather-boots-brown

So what do I wear with them [as in bottoms]?

Links appreciated, if not, thats fine.

Okay, so I'm not the greatest expert in the world, but looking at those I'd say they'd go nice with washed out denim

Maybe skinny jeans to go over:

http://store.delias.com/item.do?itemID=49049&categoryID=421&page=1&color=MVG

Or a denim skirt. Or shorts like this:

http://store.delias.com/item.do?categoryID=1388&itemID=49026&sizeFilter=&colorFilter=&brandFilter=

If you really wanted to, and you wore a plain white blouse, you could also wear those with a skirt like this:

http://store.delias.com/item.do?categoryID=450&itemID=49545&sizeFilter=&colorFilter=&brandFilter=

Leggings would look nice under that too, I think.

Hope that's to your liking!

Hi Advicenators!! Okay so my prom is next friday..im really excited :) I still need some stuff though. A picture of my dress is at the bottom so please look at it to help you, Its light blue by the way. I need jewelry. I also would like to know what are some good kinds of make-up to wear? other then the kind i wear now. Because like i want to go to Sephora and get some nice make-up. What mascara is good? What bronzer is good? Eye Shadow-what color should i wear? Any other make-up i need--please say! And then what jewelry should i get? Like what type of necklace? and Earrings. I have no clue! All i need is like make-up that will last LONG! And stay the way it looks at first. Im not getting it done Im doing it myself! Thankyou :)


Okay, so I know nothing about make-up but colors, but jewlery is something I'm set at.

Don't wear too much of anything. For jewlery, you'd do good with all silver thin chains. In necklace that goes to about your color bone with some small charm, maybe a blue stone or something like that. As for bracelets, a thin silver chain is good enough for that.

Earrings are a hard one, it would be better to see you really to see what would go nice with your face and hair but I can go with what I said before. Silver. Maybe... crystal studs or a thin chain with a stone at the bottom that sort of matches the necklace. No chandeliers.

I know no make-up brands whatsoever, since I rarely ever wear it. But I would say for colors a light light blue eyeshadow over nuder pinkish tones would go nicely.
You might want to go to Ulta or somewhere to ask advice on long lasting makeup and good bronzer and such for your skin tone.

But I hope I helped. Have fun at prom!

how can i give my hair more volume? like any certain way to wash it or blow dry it? or any shampoo/conditioner? thankss

You can blowdry upside down (bend down at the waist and blowdry the back of your hair. There's also scrunching, while giving you nice messy curl/waves can also add some nice volume. Or, if you want to, you can try ratting/teasing your hair. That gives MAJOR volume if you do it right.

Hope that helps!

how?

I think you're talking about teasing. For that you take the hair from the area you need and a comb and lightly... knot it from the back? Its kind of hard to explain.

Try:
http://www.hairboutique.com/tips/tip100066.htm
http://www.wikihow.com/Tease-Your-Hair
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdKcKRfZQV0 (2:40 is the basic part of teasing)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZ0PtX-cLfw (this girl talks through it)

or just try to find some other video on YouTube if these don't help.
Hope it works :) Don't forget to hairspray a little at the end.

i'm really exasperated with my style and want to try something new.

i love kate nash's style, and lily allen's.
unfortunately i can't wear dresses to school because i play the cello, but what would be some ways to dress up my style with them as inspirations?

thanks!

Try wearing a dress with jeans or shorts. And some nice knee length boots or small flats! Maybe even tunic shirts. But a lot of Lily Allen's dresses can be found for similar at regular stores, and go great with jeans. That way you won't hinder your cello playing. It will just be like wearin a really long shirt!

Hope I helped :)

Alright, so basically my style in clothes sucks. I just wear jeans and sweatshirts all of the time. I really want to change my style into a more fashionable trend I guess. I'm not the kind of person who wears the hollister short skirts and uggs kind of person either so please don't reccomend any kind of those clothes that are skanky. How can I ease into a new style with out just changing really quick, so people don't think that i'm crazy. Also, what are some really good outfits and stuff? Pictures would be nice too! I'm a sophomore in high school (16). Again, I really don't like the preppy, uggs stlye, but not really the grungy types of clothes either. thanks!

Try a more classy look, with a touch of originality. Maybe a bit boho. try going to Charlotte Russe or Wet Seal or one of those stores and go to the clearance rack. Try jeans and a camisole with a nice blazer. You can get those cheap if you look. Maybe, if you like, I put on a short skirt over my jeans.

http://www.charlotterusse.com/home/index.jsp

You probably should start by wearin knit sweaters or nice graphic hoodies (Kohls?). Jeans look good with everything by the way :)

Hope I helped!

Does anyone know where i can get cheap bags, that are like the Hobo style??

I really want bags that look like this one:

http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/19515

Thanks so much!!!!

Charlotte Russe, Wet Seal, New York and Company, Rue 21, Gadzooks, Coach, Khols, basically anywhere. Just depends on the color and size.

does anyone know where i can get a hat like the one the girl is wearing in this picture?

http://wetseal.com/images/rotating/35_hoodies.jpg


i think its called a berret?

thanks

Well, Wet Seal for one, thats the store that girl is posing for. Or Charlotte Russe, or any other similar store. JC Penny's, Macy's, Carson's, Rue 21, Forever 21, Sears even. And Rave. A lot of stores have hats like that.

Oh, and I don't think thats a beret. It looks like a beanie... or maybe just a knit cap. Or maybe theres a difference between the French and American, but this is a beret:
http://www.souvenirsofparis.com/images/french-berets/french-beret.jpg

The above stores will also carry that type of hat, I'm sure :)
Hope I helped!

k so i've had the same stlye foreverrrr no joke. so heres my pictures on myspace, tell me what you think i should do with. either a cut or style, maybe something other than sidebangs? just tell me what you think

http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewAlbums&friendID=34348511

if that doesn't work heres my url

myspace.com/giggly_girrafe_13

thank you
14/f/freshamn by the way :]

If you want to be bold, and I think you have a nice face for it, get a bob. Cut it so the longest layer is to your chin, and then layer it to make it look choppy. I think you'd look nice with a dark color too, if you're allowed to dye your hair.

okay so yesterday igot a brand new haircut and everything. i'm going into highschool so i thought maybe a whole new look would sort of boost my confidence.
i got side swept bangs and a lot of layers..but the thing is when the girl did my hair it looked perfect..and now when i do it..it looks soooo bad.
how do i make it look good??
i tried blowdrying it..but that just makes it look frizzy=[
please helpp

Go back to your stylist (or another stylist) and ask for product to make your hair look good. You should put anti-frizz spray in before you blowdry as well. And maybe get some sculpting wax to fix it up if that doesn't work.

Ok I feel stupid for asking this but are girl boxers worn like instead of an underwear or do you wear underwear underneath? Can you wear it as shorts?

I wear underwear underneath. And a lot of girls wear them as shorts (not even girl boxers, their boyfriends' as well). You can wear it without underwear, but I'd only suggest that to bed.

whats the difference between scene and emo kids?

thanks

http://www.explosm.net/comics/855/

That comic explains it all.

No no, that's a joke. The thing is, they're both just stupid people trying to act different byu placing themselves in groups. "Emo" people are supposed to be more deep and emotional (basically whiney and sad). "Scene" is like the clothing and "style" of "emo" mixed with a punkier, "edgier" attitude.

But really, Emo doesn't mean "Emotional" it actually stands for "Emotive Hardcore" making fun of a harder that thou rock. Indian Summer and Rites of Spring are real emo. Today's "emo" is just stupid people acting stupid. Scene is a happier copy.

How's that for an answer :D

i need a website that i can download fonts from. anyone know any good websites?

& what`s the actual link for photo shop?

whateverlife.com has great fonts

I had to borrow mine from my uncle

i got new brown pants and i was just wondering what color shirts would match nice and what kind of shirt (sweatshirt, jacket, blouse, t-shirt etcetc.) would look good with the pants. thank you :]

Try a pale pink or a nice forest green. Don't mix all three colors though. And if all else fails, white. No black though, black and brown are too similar to go togather.

hey everyone. does anyone know where i can buy fake designer sunglasses online? preferably inexpensive ones. thanksss =]

Not online. But Charlotte Russe and Khols have like... six-seven dollar fakes. Maybe you can find their websites and buy sunglasses there. Trust me they are cheap.
