Wanting to know London fashion?

Filed in The Fashion Category Punk Fashion

Hi, I have moved to america a couple years ago. To be honest, I am not finding clothing items to my liking. The fashion here is called, “scene”, “emo”, or “punk”. If not that, then the others dress in giant sunglasses and exposing clothing. I was thinking of trying Tokyo fashions but I am more so wanting to buy London clothing. How would I approach this? I am living in the United States near the Chicago area. Is there somewhere in Chicago with London fashions? If you do not know, could you please tell me what is in over there? I am trying to be fashionable and different than the other americans. Thank you.

What should I give my boyfriend for valentine’s day and what should we spend our day together doing? Ideas?!?

Filed in The Fashion Category Uncategorized

So, I am already giving my boyfriend things like clothing and all that kinda more boring stuff for his birthday which is the day after valentine’s day! But, I am stuck on what to give him for valetine’s day. It seems so much easier to buy for girls for valentine’s day-guys aren’t really in to flowers, teddy bears, jewellery etc. so i am in need of some ideas to really show that I love him? But.. not too expensive. I am only 16 with a saturday job.. not got a huge amount of money or anything :/ I also need some ideas on what we can spend that day together doing? We have already planned to go see a romantic movie together some time in the evening. But what else? Should we go out for dinner? Should I cook? Make him cook for me?.. however, I’m too sure he’d be the best person at that And, we were planning to… have a little time in the bedroom to make love. Any ideas on what we could do or what I could do to make it more special this time? And make it feel more romantic? Also, I would be grateful for sny other suggestions as to what we can do thank you

Answer by jenny
Definitely cook for him. The truest word ever spoken is that the quickest way to a man’s heart is through his tummy. Make sure it involves meat (unless he’s a veggie) and a WHOLE LOT of chocolate! He’ll ADORE you for it and you can show off your cooking skills!

However… ‘time in the bedroom’? At 16? You’re kidding, right?

Answer by Smulan
do something masculine… that he wouldn’t expect. Surprise him! Go gocart-riding or climb a wall. Something physical.

Answer by Love
Definitely spend money on activities to do with him, rather than things – as it seems that males are more into that kinda stuff! Depending on where you are, and the weather, you could do something cute (and cheap!) like set up a tent somewhere without him knowing (this can even be in your backyard) and fill it with pillows, duvets etc and pack a picnic dinner, full of yummy little things like cute sammies etc. Perhaps flag the movie you have planned – instead if you have a portable DVD player, or laptop, set it up in the tent and watch it in there. Make sure that you have lots of yummy little sweets (his favourite of course!) … perhaps some cupcakes if you’re feeling adventurous.. for when you’re watching the movie.
Hope that’s helpful! xx – love fairy

Many thanx

Answer by Jenni Babes.iiLoveYouLewie

-Slouch boots
-Gladiator sandals
-Ruffles
-Feathered skirts
-Boyfriend shirts/blazers

-Drapey Minidress
-Little black dress
-Tunics

Should I stay with him?

Filed in The Fashion Category Fashion for Pets

I’ve been with this guy for almost a year, its been 11 months. I’m 16 btw.
the first 2 months were fantastic. but then things got a bit edgy, because of previous relationships i find it hard to completely trust someone, and same for him.
I never got on with his family, his mum and dad ignore me, his sister I really hate, as she keeps saying really mean lies about me to his parents and his older siblings are so rude that they ignore the fact im in the room, but yet ive never done anything to upset any of them.
He then started to change a bit and we argued almost every day over really stupid things, then he started saying that he wanted different things for the future than me.
( I want to go to university and study beauty and fashion, then hopefully move to America and work over there and do Glamour Modelling aswel as beauty.) But he’s a little unsuportive until now where hes saying yeah i’ll try and be there (again im unsure that he will)
he dosent have any life goals that i know of as of yet, before he met me didn’t have any, until i pointed out that he needs to do well in school etc, although he hasn’t.
He dosen’t talk to me about his feelings or problems either, he expects me to just know.
We don’t have the same interests, and although we’ve taken a break from seeing eachother for a month (we still text and talk on the phone) im still unsure wether this relationship is worth it.

Yes i do have feelings for him, but when we were together almost everyday we did argue over really stupid things, he’d shout at me until i cried and then he’d stop, its always until i cry, as soon as i cry he calms down.
also when we are both with my family he’s almost perfect, but when we are together alone he’s different in a bad way.

(sorry this is so long)
he’s also been abusive to my pets, which has affected me in such a way, i find it difficult to leave the room and leave him alone with my pets for even just 5-10 minutes.

I want more than anything to move to america and pursue my dreams, but its wether he will make it difficult and possibly prevent me from doing so?
My parents also are booking a family holiday to America- florida, but just me, my mum and dad (i have no siblings), my boyfriend not included. I aint really complaining though because i dont think i really want him to come atm.

our time part now, we hardly speak much but he has been quite lovely to me, which has mademe think should i honestly stay with him?
Reading all of your answer’s got me kinda happier, and more excited about starting new without him, thing is when i ‘caught’ him when he grabbed my dog and hit him, i screamed at him to get out, he cried and said he didnt do it … but then he started turning it back on me saying do you really beleive i did that, i cant beleive you would accuse me of this etc.
weve had some good times in the past, bu things then changed i dnt know why :/ so maybe this is the real him…
the holiday is year after next for 3 weeks, so if we were still together by then he wont stay with me because i’d be in a different country for 3 weeks without him.. but i really want one last family holiday.

who knows i may meet someone over there..which is what my dad has always said he wants me to do sinc i was quite young lol!
most of you have asked why i havent left him, aswer to that is bcause my i dont know what its like to have a ‘amazing, romantic’ relationship people talk about.
my parents argue all the time, have been together since young, and my dad has hurt my mum in so many ways and also not really nice to my pets either, but my mum stays with him :/
so i have no idea what its like to have a decent relationship, never had one and feel as though i never will :/

Answer by Stevo Leugn
If you are doubting his way of doing or his personality wise, or not respecting the way you should have, then it would be wise or better to separate.

Answer by grayselegy
No, your relationship seems to have run its course in a short time, and it doesn’t sound like a healthy one anyway, with him making you cry (sounds like more about him wanting to control you) so I suggest you go on the family holiday with your parents, which will please them as it’ll probably be the last time you do this together, and forget about your BF for a while. When you get back, see what you think about him then. You may find he’s moved on by then, and you’ll certainly see things more clearly then. Good luck.

In the United Kingdom – Cultivation and use of cannabis was generally outlawed under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971, in its original form

In the United states – While more than a dozen US states have decriminalized possession or personal use of cannabis, it is illegal under the federal Controlled Substances Act of 1970. It prohibits the possession, usage, purchase, sale, and/or cultivation of marijuana.

For other countries and more info see the link below

Answer by f100_supersabre
It depends on where you are.
NOTE that MOST seeds in bird food have been treated so that they will NOT germinate.

When did fork- and knife-rests fall into disuse?

Filed in The Fashion Category Fall Fashion

I’m familiar with fork- and knife-rests of the Victorian period but I’ve recently seen some plainly more recent ones, dating from (possibly) the 1920s. I take it they are well and truly out of fashion now. I’ve never attended a dinner, however formal, in which they were used. When do you think they became definitely old-fashioned ?
I don’t think fork- and knife-rests were ever as well established as finger bowls and other refinements of the Victorian table. They are actually quite useful though.
I think there were only knife rests, not fork rests, though of course you could rest a fork on them. I haven’t seen a knife rest dating from later than the 1920s/ 30s. They may have been produced since then but not as a mass or standard item. Even then they were probably old-fashioned. I haven’t seen one of real quality that wasn’t Victorian or Edwardian.

Answer by Diane
To be honest with you, I’ve never seen this culture, sounds nice though

Answer by Omega
I’ve never heard of this, either.
I googled ‘ knife and fork-rests’ and came
up with some but they are very pricey…!
