Several reader requests rolled in for guidance on pant-tucking. There were enough such requests that I'm gonna tackle this issue, even though I'm not much of a tucker myself! Please feel free to give your two cents in the comments if you have other tips or personal preferences to share .....

This is a great article! I completely agree - while the look is not reserve for the tall and the skinny, one must be really careful when deciding whether to wear it or not.

I like wearing tucked-in jeans with a flared three-quarter length coat (50's "new look" style with a teeny waist and wider lower half). The look creates that coveted hourglass shape without putting the tush on display too much.

... my old toothbrush. Know why?If just dipping my sterling in Tarn-X doesn't do the trick, I can dip the toothbrush in there and scrub, scrub, scrub...

Une femme laments the loss of another petites store, and points out that it's not all about hemming for women with smaller frames.Speaking of shorties, The Demoiselles have assembles a condensed guide to stylish boots for petite women. No pun intended...

Oh no! Please do not tell me that the already-small petite women's shopping world has just gotten smaller! Isn't it bad enough that snooty store clerks regularly direct us to the children's department? A sad day indeed... And don't even get me started on finding shoes that are size 6 and smaller...

Already Pretty Hey Twin Cities, ARC Valuge Village just opened a new store in St. Paul at White Bear Ave. and Larpenteur. GREAT deals on opening weekend! I got two bags full of goodies for $7, including a long red leather jacket. Woo hoo!

OMG, I wish I was down there! Maybe soon, permanently... Or, maybe in North Easter MN... We'll see in the next few weeks. How long is your new leather jacket. Sounds like a great find.

Already Pretty The lecture went great! Such a thoughtful, smart, caring group of students - and we had a very eye-opening discussion. Plus I think I only unleashed two to three giant diatribes on them. Big thanks to Traci Mann for the opportunity!

Do you have acne-prone skin? Short, pale eyelashes? Cellulite? Wrinkles? Bingo wings? Limp hair? Do you have amazing long legs and a disproportionately short torso? Do you have boobs so big that you can't buy bras at Macy's? Do you have linebacker shoulders...

Already Pretty I'll be leading a discussion today at a freshman seminar on the Psychology of Eating and Body Image. I'm excited and nervous ... and grateful to Traci for the amazing opportunity!

That is an amazing opportunity! If more people with your empathy and acceptance would talk to kids this age (and even younger), it would be wonderful.

Already Pretty Tell me: When your tights get mildly damaged - by zippers or buckles, or some sort of snag high up, etc - do you throw 'em out? Or do you save them and just make sure to wear them so the damage is hidden?

Save them. I learned from Becky at Gilding the Frilly to wear always wear socks over them. She said this helps to avoid the snags. Just be sure if you are not going for the casual vibe to keep the sock down just far enough so they don't show.

How did that crazy zipper neckpiece get made? Well, I'll tell ya. Or, at least, I'll tell ya how to assemble the basic zipper-y unit.And I will do so WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF A HEAD. Heads are so last season anyway ...
