I have this coral color dress that has these sequins and golden dot things around the neckline and the top half of the dress and I want to wear it to school but I dont know what to wear with it.

 

Hey girlie, wear it with a pair of sandals and a jean jacket. The jean jacket will make it look fall appropriate and you can wear sandals with just about anything.

wut if u wore cowboy boots with 3 dress (pink one) they would have 2 b tan or black. i LOVE floral dress with leather jacket it ADORABLE!!!! im not sure the plaid jacket and low 2 high blue dress matches i think a straight across sky blue dress would and that plaid jacket would look better. the leather would look AWESOME with the pink dress also. lol there all great though!!!!!

So yu wear the plaid button down over your blue dress? Kool! But that's not the major problem!
MOD MOD MOD!
Okay so I got this white jacket, it's very fancy and I wanna wear it during fall! But the terrible thing is.................it's small on me! It's for younger girls, like 10-11 but I'm 12! It should fit, well it does but the sleeves aren't long enough! I don't wanna throw it away! I wanna use it again! For fall or spring, somehow....got any fashion ideas? Oh yeah, if you don't know how it looks well then I will send you a picture from my gmail if you give me your email address if you are a picture understander.

 

Hey chica! I can't get an email from you, but try rolling the sleeves of the jacket so the short sleeves aren't as obvious! xoxo

I have two questions.
1. I bought a maxi, and I want to wear it to school. It has a pink bodice/top and navy and white horizontal stripes on the skirt. How do I "fall it up"?
2. I bought a bottle of Morrocan Oil. How often should I use it? My hair is pretty thick, but I recently got it thinned a little.
Thanks!

 

Hey chica! Try a cardi for the maxi dress and use the morrocan oil when you think your hair needs it, like when it's dry or frizzy! xoxo

Hi! I went to my algebra and science class today (its the same teacher) and she said we needed a binder for algebra and a binder for science. On the supply list that was on the school website we need a two pocket folder for each class. Last year I had binders and I wasn't organized. I found that I can be more organized with folders. I've never had this teacher before and she is new to our school. What can I do? Thank you!

 

Hey! just ask her if it's ok if you use folders instead because you work better with them Smile

MOD MOD MOD MOD MOD Mod! Where can you get cute tights? I dance so all the tights I wear are like 20+ dollars but I want some like the ones in the top outfit. Also there is a boy in my Geometry class (I just started school today) and he sits next to me and we talked alot and I kinda like him. I am not such a pro at flirting Tong so can I get some tips?

 

Hey! they have cute tights at h&m and delias. as for flirting you just have to be confident, smile and keep the conversation going by asking questions

OK soo i wanted to get a pretty new dress for my friends b-day party- but when i told my mom she said that i should just wear the same dress that i just wore to my dance- but i was really looking forward to getting a new one and showing how nice it i would look....what should i do- i was gonna but it with my own money too but my mom is like "I paid for the at other dress and you've only worn it once"....HELPPPPP!

 

hey! The tough truth of being a kid is that you can't get your parental units to do anything. You can however, try to open a dialogue with her about your feelings. Explain your side to her in a non-whiney, calm manner. Don't interrupt her or get angry even if she interrupts you or gets angry. That's unfair, but since she has all the power, it's in your best interest not to antagonize her. As in, you'll be more likely to get what you want if you act really, super mature. If she still says no, accept her decision gracefully. If she sees that you're not going to throw a fit for not getting your way, she'll be more likely to listen next time you want something. good luck!
