advice

Ok im ging to the mall tommorw, I wear jeans size 10 slim and I shop at Abercrombie kids or Old Navy, if i went into Abercrombie and Fitch or Hollister or American Eagle, would i be able to find jeans that fit me?

dear asker♥ no, i dont think they would fit, they would be a bit too big.. i wear a size 16 slim jeans and that is a bit too big, sorry. try aeropostale though they have smaller sizes. hope i helped. feel free to ask me questions whenever you need advice on something.

Okay, well i straighten my hair alot because i have like thick wavy hair, that takes like a long time to straighten,so its like dried and frizzy, and like ends are like fried off everywhere. is there anything i can use on my hair to make it healthier again? And my hair also grows VERY slow, is ther anything to make it grow faster?

i'll rate 5's

Dear Asker, I have the same problem; my hair is very wavy and very thick..and i striaghten my hair a lot also to make it easier to handle..i recently got advise from a hair stylist so this is what i do now and my hair has been getting healthier. try using a thick conditionder[ i suggest TRESemme Pro Vitamin B5 & Aloe Remoisturizing Conditioner] in the shower right after you get out..rinse some of it out, not so theres leftover conditiondor on your hands when you run them through your hair but so it feels as if its damp. then when you get out comb out your hair so theres no tangles then use a type of styling gel in your hair..then blow dry it straight..this might take a while but it works better than dry hair straightning..then if you have any use a type of hair shine [i suggest CITRE SHINE -Shine Mist Spray Laminator] to top it off..it makes it shine a little more a much healthier look just don`t layer it on all over like hairspray. Hope I helped a bit. xOxO-->Alexxa [♥]

Ok, Im 14/f and im goin into a new skool this year and its not liek my old skool where i had 2 waer a uniform. I really dont kno what 2 wear the frist day. Im not a prep or punk or goth. I really dont have a certain style. Can u help?
Thnx!

Dear Asker, Yes. I had the same problem when I moved to Brazil, I went to an american school there but I was attending a catholic school with a uniform dress code so i didnt really know what to wear either. My suggestion is for you to wear what you wear going out with friends, and such. Most people dont have a "style" either, they just have different so called "style flings" where they are into one thing at one time and then that changes. Just be yourself, wear what you think is "you". Hope I helped a bit. xOxO-->Alexxa [♥]

hii! tonight im going to a party in ridgewood nj. i was going to wear my skirt thats green, pink nd yellow (sounds like barf but its soooo cute) with a pink spagetti strap top( http://www.abercrombiekids.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10101&catalogId=10851&parentCategoryId=12103&childCatgroupId=12103&categoryId=12173&productId=2&langId=-1 ). should i wear dark blue flip flops from old navy, green high flip flops, black high flip flops (green nd black r same)or black high heels? and also, im going to bring my jean jacket just in case. i think its a pool party too so ill bring my white bathing suit with dark blue flowers. now: black little bag, black littler bag w/ mirror on outside, big pink striped bag from AE or my makeup bag from david & goliath thats blue nd yellow and says "chicks rule" in the corner. and it looks like undiwear. its really cute.


so should i wear that outfit? which pair of shoes, which bag, straighten my hair, poneytail or bun! thanks

o nd i tried to find as many pics of it as i could but i couldnt even find one! the cammie is CLOSE but it is from abercrombie. THANKS SO MUCH FOR READING THIS LONG THING!

Dear Asker, I like the sound of that outfit. I suggest you wear the green high flip flops (if it is a pool party you dont want to be wearing high heels like the black ones.), with the little black bag or black littler bag with the mirror..also wear your hair down strightened or in a ponytail..looks better. Hope I helped. xOxO-->Alexxa [♥]

how can i make my jeans AHH wuts the word? you guys know! the style thats in right now with the jeans where its like shredded. well neway-sorry-i can just take a cheese grader and do that right? but like how because i dont want to ruin my jeans.

also *RANDOM*--i want a second hole but my dad is TOTALLY against it. his words were: you can get that when you move out of the house and have your own life. im like WOA CHILLAX! (didnt really say that but i did say WOAH!!) but my mom doesnt have a problem with it! shes like "ill talk to him but mayb you can get it in the middle of this year". i love my mommy! ;) i love my dad too thou. BACK TO MY QUESITON! LOL: how can i help my mom to convince him? i kno hes going to be mad and just say NO END OF IT! if i keep asking. and its not one of those things were i like "help around the house" etc.

thanks a bunch

Dear Asker, To get your jeans a "vintage" look, yes you can use a cheese grader..also you should sharty my making a few holes around the part where you want the "shredding" to be with a pair of scissors. Also I suggest that you either buy a cheap pair of jeans to do this, or just use some old jeans. You dont want to ruin a completey good pair of jeans if you mess up.
I sort of have the same problem with my parents; because I want to get my cartilige periced my dad however thinks its fine..my mom dosen`t. Anywho; back to your question..try to be nicer toward your dad help him with things. If he`s worried about you doing things around the house: Do what you`re asked. You really don`t need to do anything "extra"..just what you`re asked to do. Ask your mother to talk to your dad about it..ask him "Why can`t she get it done".."Whats wrong with having a second hole?" ..also, if all fails: ask your mom to get a second hole with you..it`ll ease up your dad a bit.
`Good Luck..I hope I helped! xOxO-->Alexxa [♥]

im SUCH a girly girl! so wut should i wear the first day of school (september 6th)? i know you dont know whats in my closet so i wont give u like a 3- if i dont have it!! but what are you wearing, what would be cute/in. im going to straighten my hair. and im pretty sure i want to wear a skirt. thanks

Dear Girly Girl, I`m practically the same way, except I go to a catholic school and we wear uniforms anywho..here are some of my suggestions:
[*] cute miniskirt w/ polo
[*] vintage jeans and graphic tee
[*] jeans with polo
[*] capris and tank [if`s its warm]
[anything from miniskirts, polos, graphic tees, favortie vintage tees, highlights tanks. bascially whatever you want with your edge.] try some brand websites for ideas: www.ae.com - www.aeropostle.com - www.abercrombie.com [you dont need their brands, just ideas]. `Luck. xOxO-->Alexxa [♥]

Calling ANYONE good with fashion. I know my fashion stuff, I just get nervous and overwhelmed as my first day gets closer. Well I don't really know what should be better as far as an outfit goes, my first day, or 2nd day which is picture day. Also, I'm going to try and coordinate outfits for the first week, but I don't even know where to begin! I mean, I love all my new clothes but I just can't decide on one thing. HELP! Big time... how do I get myself to pick between skirts, jeans, fitted sweatpants ... etc! That and at 6 A.M. when I wake up I'm FREEZING, and by the end of the day sweating to death because it's so hot.... will rate...

Dear Asker,

I have the same problem..the one best thing i can advise is for you to wear what YOU think looks best on you...it dosent have to be new, some of my favorite outfits are vintage jeans and graphics tees..simple, yet cute.

Also, if you are having trouble deciding what to wear that day..go through your possible choices and pick a few you think would be good for that day..have like 3 outfits ready in the morning and then choose debating on the weather, and such.

To help with that switch from cold to hot during the day...bring a cardigan that matches your outfit in the morning then during the rest of the day you can either stuff it in your backpack or wear it around the waist..also, if your cold in the morning, wear jeans...then during the day when you are using the lavatory you can roll up the leg cuffs to make cuffed capris..one of the coolest, and most convient styles. Hope I helped in some way.

I was just wondering if any has any suggestions for a really good foundation - preferably something with full-coverage and with a flawless look?

Dear Asker,

Ok, i usually dont only use liquid foundation but also a powder on top, the liquid foundation is use is
REVLON AGE DEFYING MAKEUP WITH BOTAFIRMTM FOR NORMAL/COMBINATION SKIN, with this Revlon prduct there really isnt a need for powder..but if you were using something more liquidy, I would suggest you use a type of powder also, perferably REVLON AGE DEFYING SKIN SMOOTHING POWDER WITH BOTAFIRM...also you could use MaXfactor make-up,I've always had good results with that brand, also its quite cheap.

Best wishes; xOxo
