i'll take a pic. it's actually a pretty simple process, it's just about find the right stripper heel height, I found the 5 inchers to be best and the boot style to have the (worthless, only psychologically supportive) ankle support. from there is is about paper mache, wire form, rubber then leather.

I know very little except that dye can do it.

Probably. It is a skin and the thing it comes from looks like the thing from Peter Pan. That is the extent of my knowledge on the subject.

I would hand sew, however it might damage the plates unless it is seam based. Another great option would be a heat bond with a flexible polymer. Based on the photos I think that might be what they do. Stuff like this makes me think that everyone should just save money and hit up hong kong once every five years with a…

Okay, here is what you do if you must have this. Go to a local tailor and have them make you a tee shirt to fit out of black chiffon ($100ish). Now, here is the work part, source croc skin (there are several farms in louisiana to look into. Request the skin in dried form then use leather dye and a toothbrush to color…

I had a friend explain to me that it's more a matter of your sleep being really freaking light for the first couple years. She (a morbid soul) said it's because you're sort of afraid they'll die anytime they sleep.

I am a well educated professional (high paid nanny, yes it is a real profession, anyone who disagrees can suck it) woman and consider myself to be a feminist. However, when I have children I've already decided (and informed my husband who earns enough to make this happen) that I will stay home because I want to be…

That is the rub with eating disorders, it's the thing that people don't understand. If you gain too much you will set yourself off. If you control yourself you walk a fine line of over restricting. Keep it to walking with the cardio, that way it doesn't trigger the need to push push push. And seriously once you know…

I know that with eating disorders (being a former anorectic I believe you never get over things) I know how hard numbers and weight loss can be. I've found that the best I can do is use my numbers game in my favor and establish a set number I must achieve. I must eat between 1500-2000 a day. I keep a food journal to…

I pissed off Gawker this week by shitting on the idea of vacationing in LA.

I'm in love with the old dude in the red glasses off to the right who looks like he has had enough of this shit.

It makes life hard but...

Living about an hour south of LA and having to go there all the time for business I always wonder why anyone would want to go on a trip to LA. It's like vacationing in hell. I mean I get wanting to go westside and maybe doing an afternoon in Beverly Hills. But to be in LA by choice in ones free time? Unthinkable.

So similar to going to the bathroom in any other type of pants only your top is of the same fabric! Huzzah! I'll take 5. Are they mix and match?

When I was a freshman in high school I was in the upper classman math class (brainy little twerp.) My school had televised announcements and would play a pop song as the intro. One day the intro was the Destiny's Child song Say My Name. At the end of the song I proceeded to make a joke by turning to the cool senior…

I like to wear circle skirts made of cotton. This enhances your little waist and flatters the lower half. The trick is to get a fabric that is very flowy and not too thick. Something that will wisp about you while you walk and make you feel like a Cyd Charisse in The Band Wagon

Maybe I'm just crazy but I would name my child Heather because of that movie except that every Heather I have known IRL is both chubby and bitter.

I don't know, fat shaming worked on me as a kid. Years of eating disorders show I was listening real close when people told me I'd be so pretty if...

Cider here. And a steady flow of it.

I told my husband I want him to create a program like this for me for my birthday. We have a touch screen monitor so I'm feeling optimistic.
