    And now that you've read all this stuff, I challenge you all to try on different tops in front of the mirror and see for yourselves whether Trinny and Susannah's "Rules" are right or not - seeing is believing!

    Hence my love for a good winter jacket... one that covers the tummy area, but is low-cut enough to show a bit of whatever top you have underneath. That'll definately take the attention away from tummy and up to bust :D Alternatively a pair of jeans that fits (if you have a tummy, go for a...

    Is the brand "Wish" in any way related to "Review"?

    However, when on sale... ;) I've got two review tops, and I love them! Have had issues with their cutting sometimes, but both the ones I have are tie-up in the front so no issues at all. Review is somewhat similar to Alannah Hill, but to me AH just has that supreme 'diva' factor to it -...

    I only just stopped wearing some of my favourite colours a few months ago :( So hard to give up all my pretty pastel pinks and creams... but let's face it, they just don't look very good on me :( The trick is to SERIOUSLY be ruthless, or have a ruthless friend sitting next to you...

    Gloves for winter - hot or not?

    OMG! I've seen those mittens before, they are AWESOME! I want, I want!

    This is why I love Trinny and Susannah so much. Most people aren't born knowing what does and doesn't work for them - sometimes they're clever enough to work it out on their own, but most of the time people have to learn it from somewhere/something/someone. I'd say the easiest thing to...

    Paris Hilton

    I agree, and I haven't even seen the video yet. My only comment with the song "stars are blind" is that it's kinda catchy - since her voice kind of sucks, I'm putting it down to a really good writing/producing/editing team and extremely good choices of song (I reckon she had help there)...

    Where to record?

    Studios tend to be very expensive... you're looking at minimumish of $200 a pop. In other news, what a speech girl did at my school was to use the school's facilities. She wasn't able to use them in school time though, and would stick around after school (up till 5pm) in order to have access...

    The MQ Get Healthy/Study Thread

    awwwww I hope you feel better soon Anne :( Drink lots of water, and stay warm! Another idea would be to try out a little workout at home... sometimes this can make people feel better (like me, haha my body gets all happy when I start dancing and clears my airways etc in a flash ;)), or...

    Gloves for winter - hot or not?

    Agreed. I like spending a bit extra on things I really like and I know will last for a while - leather gloves, here I come! :D

    My approach to clothes is like this: (heavily inspired from Trinny and Susannah) Even if you loose weight, unless you have undergone MAJOR weightloss (I'm talking obese to on the healthy scale) your "shape" will still stay the same - so all your 'good points' and 'bad points' will still be...

    My Complaint Against My English Faculty

    Most schools specify that you must be in the correct room (even for HSC assessments). Even if not listed and a roll not called out, they will likely mark off the roll quietly while everyone is writing. If you do not appear on this roll then they assume you are absent... by the same token if they...

    ^ I have a similar problem, however it applies to real life... :S My only solution has been to not have a credit card, and to not keep too much money in my purse so I physically can't splurge on the big stuff. Has worked badly in my favour on two occasions (when I should have put stuff on...

    Sass and Bide has really, really good cut. Even if they were manufactured in india or something, the drafting of the pattern would have been done in Australia and they do a veerrryyy nice job

    hahaha your clothing education starts here, Mike! :p Mainstream/cheap clothes tend to have a minimum of tailoring, or large unslightly seams. More upmarket clothes tend to have smaller/finer tailoring details (or tasteful aesthetic tailoring details such as double darts) which do just as much...

    I personally like the cut of the denim more as well, but I basically live in jeans, so any jacket made in denim is an absolute no-no for me. My denim-wearing habits aren't going to change anytime soon...! lol I'm giving serious consideration to signing up to ebay, even though I don't have a...

    Haha don't worry, I myself am considering spending $400 + on a jacket so I know where you're coming from! Of the two, the brown is likely to be more versatile (cue textiles waffle about how diagonal lines draw attention gently down away from midpoint creating slimming effect), particularly if...

    can the teachers change our module from frontline to V for Vandetta??

    Where did you hear it confirmed from? Logically, it doesn't make sense. Textlists are only changed every few years and usually prepared well in advance - they're not going to suddenly whack on a new prescribed text in the middle of the year. Additionally, all HSC texts are off-bounds for Yr...
