nice magazine

Post by Virginia »

If you are into women's magazines you may want to take a look at one called "InStyle." I bought the May issue and it has one article called "50 Best Makeup Tips Ever!" Well at least 49 as one says that if you are going to buy a different/new shade of lipstick then it is best to try it on without make-up to see if it matches your skin tone!---------say what??? Anyway I would recommend it. They also use a term I had not heard for shoes. There are "flats" and "high heels" but in between something referred to as "kitten heels." It does not say what the various heights are in order to qualify for high or kitten but it is cute anyway!

Hi Virginia, how was FL?

The kitten heel -- popularized by the beyond-chic Audrey Hepburn -- is a femme little heel, usually 1 ½ to 2 inches high, with a girlie little curve to it. It's a perfect medium between flats (sometimes just way too flat) and high heels. They are particularly common on sandals.

I have a pair of kitten heel mules I picked up at WalMart last year that I've never worn out. They fit okay, but they have those really long, pointy toes, and I've never really gotten used to that look.
