Honest question from a self-professed dummy - I have difficulty sometimes telling where the line is between red hair and blonde hair. Case in point, I would assume that Harry and second dude were blonds, not red heads. Can someone explain this to me? Please? I AM CONFUUUZED.

...and by listed above I meant the rest of the post, just making sure that is clear!

NORWAY IS AWESOME!

Nope, not gonna cut it. Invest in a good pair of boots, like the ones listed above. I have these boots and they will soak through.

THIS. I love talking to someone in Spanish on the phone and then meet them. On the phone there is no issue - normal conversations ensue and I never get asked where I am from. When meeting some people, I get stared at as if I am an alien riding a unicorn. They then speak to me in English and when I say something back…

I put it in quotations because in Mexico we have a variety of different races. There is a perceived idea of what a "Mexican" person looks like outside of Mexico, and she looks more like that. I also find it funny that when I explain my background, no one says that I don't look Swedish, but immediately go for the…

Slightly off topic, but kudos to you for having three kids in that age range. Not easy, I know: my sister has a three-year-old and a one-year-old and she can barely manage. So hats off to you.

I agree with you. I'm half-Mexican/half-Swedish and although I do get a ton of eye-roll inducing questions from my fiancé's fratboy fantasy football league,* I also have gotten some very uncomfortable questions from my family in either country and friends in Latin America. It is a different relationship with race and…

explanation: the "where are you from?" and "what are you?" questions I get asked everywhere, not just in Mexico but here in the US and other countries.

My sisters and I are mutts. My mother is Mexican/Austro-Hungarian and my dad is Swedish. The three of us look extremely different from each other.

As a huge Dave Van Ronk fan and a huge Coen brothers fan, I feel a little torn. Part of me really wishes that they would have done a movie about him rather than just a movie very, very, very loosely based on him. He was just such a character that it seems a shame. Nevertheless, I am sure that this is a fantastic film…

Although I agree with you that "smaller sizes are probably easier to be 'straight'", (grammar police help me out here with commas), it is nonetheless smarter to have cuts that will actually fit multiple body types. WHY DOES FASHION NEED TO BE SO HARD???

Belts are my savior. Or the death of me. I can't decide. They either really work or make me look very broad. You know what's a good brand for tall people, surprisingly? Uniqlo... I have actually found things that fit in a flattering way.

HAHAHA! Yes! I am 6'0" and have this problem all the time. It would tick me off when people would tell me "oh, everything must look great on you!" because it was not so... Cuts were... off. I wear jeans all of the time because that is what fits. My favorite fall dress is banded at the waist, but the band hits me in…

Could be, but I also did encounter a lot of fellow co-workers (who are not wealthy by any means) who were equally tiny. At a size 6/8, I felt rather large in comparison to most!

I've always been curious about this situation. Sometimes I think the issue is with the cut of a particular style and how it looks on different sized-and shaped- people. A size 2 may look good in style XYZ, but it looks odd on someone who is a size 8, 12, 16 because suddenly it may be less proportionate. Perhaps a…

I used to work in a popular European boutique brand in NYC and our stock room was tiny. We barely had enough space to store the current collection and oftentimes our past season was not collected until four or five months after we took it off the floor. We dreaded getting new shipment because we did not know where to…

Ditto and it has made me hold back on commenting! So confusing.

I guess that it all depends. My fiance is my best friend and the two of us are really into just be able to talk about anything. He is one of the strongest columns in my life, as I hope I am to him. It is not a dependent relationship, just a really good match for two likeminded people. The idea of not being able to…

28 and having the time of my life!
