I like Mortisha Addams dresses she wears. I would look good in that. Those long gothicy dresses. I would take her wardrobe.

My favorite accesories I wear is my butterfly ring, and my dragon necklace. My favorite shoes are my knee high combat boots. I love my fishnet stockings.

I don't wear much perfume but I do like Bath n' Body Works. I like the  cocoanut, cherry blossom, moonlight path,irresistable apple.....

Irresistable apple reminds me of last year when out on this date with this real cool guy. Irresistable apple is what I was wearing.The guy I was dating had long hair, played in a metal band,my type.

I look good in everything. I'm 5'8 and slender. I can't think of anything I wore that I looked bad in .

    Hello, it's been a while since I've posted.  Lots of stuff going on and most of it isn't pleasant.  I needed a break.

    IS THERE A TV OR MOVIE CHARACTER WHOSE WARDROBE YOU WOULD LOVE TO HAVE? IF SO, WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE OUTFITS?  Katharine Hepburn's  many characters from her movies in the 1940's.  She always looked wonderful and dressed ahead of the times. 

    IN YOUR OPINION, WHO IS ONE OF THE WORST DRESSED TV OR MOVIE CHARACTERS. The cast from the movie Lil Abner.

    TELL US ABOUT AN OUTFIT, PAST OR PRESENT THAT YOU LOOKED FANTASTIC IN. IS THERE ONE THAT YOU LOOKED AWFUL IN, BUT WORE IT ANYWAY?  I looked great in my wedding gown, and liked the way I dressed in the late 70's early 80's.  Tight jeans and long belted tops.  I liked that look and more importantly I liked my shape back then too.

    WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE ACCESSORIES,JEWELRY, SHOES, ETC.. THAT YOU OWN? I'm not into accessories or jewelry that much but I have several great pair of earrings that I bought in The Village back in the 70's and they still work well today.  I also have a strong sentimental attachment to the jewelry that Martin gave me, especially a few that belonged to his mom.

    DO YOU WEAR PERFUME OR ANY SCENTED PRODUCT?  Not much on perfume but I do wear it and I do live creams and lotions.  My favorite scent is patchouli

    IS THERE A PERFUME OR SCENT THAT REMINDS YOU OF A PLEASANT/UNPLEASANT MEMORY?  Jean Nate body splash reminds me of my grandmother.  Funny thing is that my dad loves the smell and uses the after body splash.  Go figure.

    Thanks for the questions.  Hope everyone is enjoying their day.

  • They still make Jean Nate? It was cheap, but it did smell clean. I'm sorry to hear you have been going through trying times, I hope things get better for you. It's always nice for you to stop by. Take Care~amie

    IS THERE A TV OR MOVIE CHARACTER WHOSE WARDROBE YOU WOULD LOVE TO HAVE? IF SO, WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE OUTFITS? ----Phoebe from Friends. I liked alot of her clothes, especially the ones that were more "Boho". My favorite outfit of hers was the one she wore when she was teaching Joey how to play the guitar....it was a red dress with a sheer, black overlay.

    IN YOUR OPINION, WHO IS ONE OF THE WORST DRESSED TV OR MOVIE CHARACTERS. ----Mrs. Roper from Three's Company. Yikes! 8-(

    TELL US ABOUT AN OUTFIT, PAST OR PRESENT THAT YOU LOOKED FANTASTIC IN. IS THERE ONE THAT YOU LOOKED AWFUL IN, BUT WORE IT ANYWAY? ----I have this long black dress with a layered hem, short capped sleeves. I always get compliments when I wear it. I don't wear anything that I look awful in. 

    WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE ACCESSORIES,JEWELRY, SHOES, ETC.. THAT YOU OWN? ----Oh gosh.....I would have to say my grandmother's ring. It has two diamonds--one from her engagement ring, the other from HER mother's engagement ring. It's very special to me.

    DO YOU WEAR PERFUME OR ANY SCENTED PRODUCT? ----Sometimes, it's very light since I don't like strong perfumes. I have a fragrance from Victoria Jackson (the makeup lady) and a light scent called "Ocean". 

    IS THERE A PERFUME OR SCENT THAT REMINDS YOU OF A PLEASANT/UNPLEASANT MEMORY? ----No perfumes, but I always love the smell of freshly mowed grass, and summer rain. That always brings back memories of my childhood. Also I love the smell of the ocean.

  • Mrs Roper, I forgot all about her! When the Ropers and Chrissy were on Three's Company, it was it's best! You strike me as the BoHo type, Phoebe BTW, is my favorite of the Friends, loved her song Smelly Cat!~amie

    IN YOUR OPINION, WHO IS ONE OF THE WORST DRESSED TV OR MOVIE CHARACTERS.  Adam Sandler

    TELL US ABOUT AN OUTFIT, PAST OR PRESENT THAT YOU LOOKED FANTASTIC IN. IS THERE ONE THAT YOU LOOKED AWFUL IN, BUT WORE IT ANYWAY?  Past:  i looked great as a bridesmaid in my sisters first wedding a long long time ago ... Present: my sister is getting married again later this summer and its a beach wedding with a hawaiian theme - lucky me as the maid of honor i get to wear a muu muu ... but i'll do anything for my beloved sister 

    WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE ACCESSORIES,JEWELRY, SHOES, ETC.. THAT YOU OWN? i love all the jewelry my husband has given me over the years particularly the pearls which are my birthstone

    DO YOU WEAR PERFUME OR ANY SCENTED PRODUCT?  I use different scented soaps and lotions and i have alot of perfumes but i only dab them on special occasions and only very lightly and never at a dinner

    IS THERE A PERFUME OR SCENT THAT REMINDS YOU OF A PLEASANT/UNPLEASANT MEMORY?  There are so many scents i associate with good memories - when i smell fresh paint i am reminded of the time my family painted my bedroom baby blue for my 13th birthday and installed a matching princess phone ... and the smell of fresh cut lawn reminds me of playing hide-n-seek and slip-n-slide ... and chlorine reminds me of swimming in summer ... and cedar reminds me of Yosemite ... and Tabu perfume reminds me of my friend Julian ... and Jean Nate perfume reminds me of my mom ... i could go on and on ...

  • Annie Hall is one of my favorite all time movies! It's a hard look to pull of, but it worked on Diane Keaton that's for sure. I hope your sister at least picked out a flattering muu muu, is there such a thing? Good Luck, beach weddings are lovely~amie

    You ask great ??'s but just a friendly hint.....use lower-case letters please. We can highlight, bold, underline or italicise to differentiate between questions and answers. But its hard to get past the *shouting* implied by all caps. Thanks.

    WARDROBE? Can't think of one. Mine is pretty boring by fashion standards but I like it.

    WORST DRESSED CHARACTER. Who thinks they dress well? Any Andrew Mcarthy character just popped in my head.

    FANTASTIC OUTFIT? I thought I looked pretty sporty in my stewart tartan plus fours while golfing in Scotland.

    AWFUL, BUT WORE IT ANYWAY? A groomsman with tails and gloves. I love a standard black tux but I felt like a doorman.

    FAVORITE ACCESSORIES? I love my Ga Tech watch my parents gave me at graduation some 17 years ago. I have gotten many compliments on it, it is still my day to day watch, and I have no intention of replacing it. Would not change it even for a Rolex (unless the Rolex had a gold GT seal of course!)

    SCENTED PRODUCT? sometimes Obsession, but not daily

    SCENT THAT REMINDS YOU OF A PLEASANT/UNPLEASANT MEMORY?

    Cut grass, specifically bermuda grass.....summertime, golf, and low stress

    Drakkar Noir....being a teenager who thought he was cool, now it makes me think *redneck*

    Cigar smoke......a fraternity ritual, nothing unpleasant, just having to give a speech before all the brothers while they puff away trying to make you nervous.

    public cigar smoke.....phony golf fans at tournaments, phony people trying to make some kind of statement by having a cigar in their mouth somewhere blowing cheap smoke in people's noses.

    A true cigar smoker/enjoyer does so inconspicuosly with a little bother to others

  • Sorry about the shouting, I have a Mac Pro notebook, and for some reason, I've tried and tried, but I cannot highlight, bold, use italics or post pictures on Media Domain. I can do it on other sites, but not this one. Fash has tried to teach me, but I can't get it to work. I even went to the Macintosh store, and the guy didn't know why I couldn't do this stuff on every site but this one. Anyway, Drakkur Noir remind me of a very awful prom date, but I leave that story for another topic.~amie

  • Susan Lucci always looks divine! The sitcom was called Veronica's closet, and Kirstie was going through one of her heavy phases. She started off wearing lingerie, but slowly turned to moo moos.~amie
  • amie..that was it...Veronica's Closet. thanks.../Angela

    IS THERE A TV OR MOVIE CHARACTER WHOSE WARDROBE YOU WOULD LOVE TO HAVE? IF SO, WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE OUTFITS? Ginger Rogers or Jean Harlow. I love those heavy satin, Art Deco-inspired glamor gowns from the 1930s.

    IN YOUR OPINION, WHO IS ONE OF THE WORST DRESSED TV OR MOVIE CHARACTERS. Pretty much any female character from the '80s. 

    TELL US ABOUT AN OUTFIT, PAST OR PRESENT THAT YOU LOOKED FANTASTIC IN. IS THERE ONE THAT YOU LOOKED AWFUL IN, BUT WORE IT ANYWAY?  I have a muted periwinkle heavy cotton & lycra sleeveless, knee-length sheath dress that I wore to my 20 year high school class reunion -- sort of a Richard Tyler look.  It's one of those dresses that leaves no room for error, lol!  At the time, I was working out 5 times a week and was lean and buff so I decided to go for it. I had just the perfect necklace and earrings set to go with it along with pale taupe high heel sandals and a matching small bag.  The ensemble looked very simple, sleek and elegant and I got tons of compliments.  That was the first time 98% of my classmates had seen me since high school graduation, so there was a lot of attention paid to me. I was glad I looked good!  As far as bad outfits, nothing really jumps out at me.  I've got a pretty critical eye and I don't wear anything I'm not sure looks good.

    WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE ACCESSORIES,JEWELRY, SHOES, ETC.. THAT YOU OWN?   My absolute favorite is my diamond engagement ring.  It's a brilliant cut diamond in an 18k Tiffany-style setting -- simple and classic, the setting does not compete with the diamond.  Love it.  I also love all my 3'' sandals and boots.  I've gotta have heels!

    DO YOU WEAR PERFUME OR ANY SCENTED PRODUCT? Calvin Klein Obsession, mostly.

    IS THERE A PERFUME OR SCENT THAT REMINDS YOU OF A PLEASANT/UNPLEASANT MEMORY?  Remember Poison perfume?  OMG, that stuff smelled like roach spray!  I hated when that was popular.

  • OMG ! POISON was the absolute worst ! There was a girl here in the office who wore it and made us all sick. No one would sit near her and we'd hold our noses and blow the desk fans her way and she still couldnt take a hint ! Thats the problem with perfumes and the people who wear them ~ mrsk
  • The main problem with Poison was it was too darn strong! Those silk gowns from the 30's, pure glamour, although it must have been hard to dance in. How wonderful to look so great at your HS reunion, good for you! Take care~amie

    TELL US ABOUT AN OUTFIT, PAST OR PRESENT THAT YOU LOOKED FANTASTIC IN. IS THERE ONE THAT YOU LOOKED AWFUL IN, BUT WORE IT ANYWAY?  I was always complimented in a filmy, flowery blue dress I wore to a friend's wedding in the 70s.  It was me ... but it shrunk!!  LOL 

    WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE ACCESSORIES,JEWELRY, SHOES, ETC.. THAT YOU OWN?  Just a plain silver wedding band.   

    DO YOU WEAR PERFUME OR ANY SCENTED PRODUCT?  Mackie 

    IS THERE A PERFUME OR SCENT THAT REMINDS YOU OF A PLEASANT/UNPLEASANT MEMORY?  Old Spice reminds me of Christmas morning as a child.  My two dad's always got some under the tree. 


    Thanks, amie!

  • Ohhh I wish I thought of Rachel Green. You reminded me that my darling Unkie smelled of Irish Spring (sigh).eom/WE
  • Racheal is a great choice, like W.E, I wish I'd thought of her. I don't care what Aniston says, her Racheal haircut was great. Aramis reminds me of my father.~amie

    IS THERE A TV OR MOVIE CHARACTER WHOSE WARDROBE YOU WOULD LOVE TO HAVE? IF SO, WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE OUTFITS? I love the 1940s fashions. Ann Sheridan or Susan Hayward's from most of their movies.

    IN YOUR OPINION, WHO IS ONE OF THE WORST DRESSED TV OR MOVIE CHARACTERS. Oscar Madison? Columbo? (lol)

    TELL US ABOUT AN OUTFIT, PAST OR PRESENT THAT YOU LOOKED FANTASTIC IN. IS THERE ONE THAT YOU LOOKED AWFUL IN, BUT WORE IT ANYWAY? Awful has got to be hot pants. I didn't look bad ( I had the legs) but thank goodness that style had a short shelf life. Who thought of that?? I loved dressing 1940s and had this fabulous outfit. It was a pencil skirt to the shin, wonderful blouse and high heeled ankle strapped shoes.

    WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE ACCESSORIES,JEWELRY, SHOES, ETC.. THAT YOU OWN? Well, of course, my cowboy boots but #1 (other than wedding band/engagement ring) is my Claddagh ring from Bitt.

    DO YOU WEAR PERFUME OR ANY SCENTED PRODUCT? I wear Opium or Love Star for evening but everyday is body splash from B&BW (all flavors - right now it's Cocoanut).

    IS THERE A PERFUME OR SCENT THAT REMINDS YOU OF A PLEASANT/UNPLEASANT MEMORY? We went to H.S. near a coffee plant. The aroma wasn't bad but after a while it got to be too much. Maybe that's why I've never had a cup (lol). Pleasant, certain colognes remind me of the people who wear them. Bitt and my brothers have their signature scents.
