Clear Deodorant: Not so much to ask…

I have heard of Skirt Day. That's what some men call the time of year when women shed their winter layers and flash bare legs to the lovely gaggle of guys lurking outside their office until the clock strikes to go back in from lunch.

Well, I am now declaring Pit Day. It has nothing to do with Brad Pitt but probably the way you would like to look when (and if) he notices you.

Gender bender beauty continues…

I saw that Aussie minx Dame Edna on Broadway on one of her hilarious Royal Tours a number of years ago with the grandmas– we all loved her humor, her neon lilac wig, and her fabu spectacles. But is she a tongue-in-chic beauty icon?
