2. QUESTION:
   I looking for a good pair of white shoes…?
   My friend’s wedding is coming up in June and I am a bridesmaid. The dress is Persimmon (sort of a orangish red). We all decided on white shoes. The dress is tea-cut, meaning it ends almost 4 inches below the knee. There will be red and orange flowers with yellow tips in the bouqet along with green. White will also be thrown in there to give a burst of freshness. That is where the white shoes come in.

   I need to find a good pair of white, strappy sandals, size 9 1/2, with atleast a 1″ heel, but no more than 2″. Very summery, cute looking shoes.

   Please send me websites with the direct web addresses that take me straight to the pictures of the shoes. Don’t just give me store names or brand names. If you could, take me directly to where I can see if that shoe is one I am interested in. Just copy and paste the url to your answer.

   Thank you.

   And if you have any makeup, hair, nails, or jewelry tips, let me know.
   I said I needed direct web addresses, not just the website.

4. QUESTION:
   What colour of shoes could I get for this dress.?

   and wants a handbag and shoes.

   We have been looking for shoes but we don’t know what colour to go for and we want a handbag to match the shoes. My mother does not want very high shoes, she doesn’t find them very comfortable.
   Please, if you can could you tell us what colur this dress is,
   What colour to pick for shoes and
   Posibly direct me to a web page with yor suggestions.
   Thank you so much,
   and remember the heels are not to be to high.

   ps. she is size 5

   • ANSWER:
     Since its in November i suggest a nice ankle boot. Black goes with everything, getting purple shoes makes it look too “matchy matchy”. So get black ankle boots (or a soft gray) and get black or soft gray hand bag as well. If she doesn’t want to do ankle boots at least get the color I recommended.

5. QUESTION:
   What colour shoes do with this dress?
   It’s navy.
   This is it.

6. QUESTION:
   Dress to wear to a fall wedding?
   So, I need to pick out a dress for a friends wedding that is in the middle of November. The only colors I can’t wear are white and ivory. Colors that look best on me / would compliment fall, are: Greens, reds, and browns. I also like classic black, too. I can figure out the shoes / accessories but I just can’t find a casual yet wedding appropriate dress for fall. Any ideas? I’ve checked out forever21 but am not really finding anything. Direct links or store / website suggestions are appreciated! Also, I don’t want to spend over 0.

7. QUESTION:
   Wedding Etiquette – Little Bridesmaid?
   I will be getting married next year and i would like to ask the daughters of two of my distant cousins to be my bridesmaids, they are 5 and 7 respectively.

   I’m sure their mothers would like it and i know the little girls would like it, i was a bridesmaid for cousins at the same level when i was little…. but what would be the correct etiquette to ask them.

   I come from a big family and although i see them at family occasions 3 – 4 times a year, i’m not in ‘direct’ contact with them, i.e. i don’t ring them for a ‘chat’….. the family grapevine works wonders!!!

   Should i get in contact with the mothers through my mother/grandmother and just ask the mothers if i can meet with them? Then do i ask their permission to ask their little girls?

   There won’t be any cost involved, i.e. i’ll pay for their dresses, shoes etc but obviously there will be some inconvenience to their parents (who would be attending the wedding!)

   Have you been in this situation, either as the bride or as the mother of a little girl who has been asked? How did you handle it/would like it to have been handled?

   Thanks
   …i’m not really distinguishing between bridesmaids and flower girls….. i have 3 adult bridesmaids…i.e. wearing nice frocks, carrying flowers, helping me on the day, going for a night out before hand….the little ones will do the same…except for the boozy night out before of course…..so i’m not really distinguishing between the two…either way flower girl or bridesmaid….the question is the same…..
   To Sha…

   Please read the question fully before answering….i see my extended family 3 – 4 times per year so i have met these little girls between 15 and 28 times!!!

   I also have 3 closer adult bridesmaids….i thought it would be nice for these little girls to be bridemaids just like i enjoyed it when i was little being bridesmaid to their aunts their mothers were to my mother etc etc!!!

   You are not honest or blunt, you just don’t bother reading!!!

   • ANSWER:
     Next year for your wedding? I’d definitely call the moms and then at your next family gathering take them aside and ask them, or write them letters – little kids (at least the ones I know) LOVE to get mail… Of course the 5 year old may need some help with the ‘reading’ but will still love it and they may feel special because they were a) asked and b) got a letter.

8. QUESTION:
   Would you be upset if your wedding date announcement coincided with your sibling’s engagement announcement?
   ….or vice versa?

   After four children and a 3 year engagement, my sister finally announced a wedding date. However, by complete coincidence and unknown to both of us she announced her date on the same day I announced my engagement.

   Now, I’m not bothered in the least. I don’t feel her news takes away from mine in any way.

   But, she is quite bothered, despite my having no idea she finally came up with a date. After such a long engagement, I didn’t know if she would ever be married. She’s very obviously jealous and made a snarky comment about my engagement. She’s not being direct about whatever problem she has, but she’s being passive-aggressive.

   Would you be upset in my shoes?
   Would you be upset in her shoes?
   Any thoughts?
   Any suggestions for how I should proceed?

   • ANSWER:
     My soon to be brother in law announced his engagement at our wedding.
     Frankly I was a little pissed, (not that he announced it at the wedding, just that he was going to announce it) as I would have liked some notice. I got over it in about 2 seconds though.

     Yes I would be upset if I were you, just because of her reaction.
     So yes I would be upset if I were her, but not for long.

     Just tell her you guys need to be closer now that you are both getting married so you can coordinate for the future.

9. QUESTION:
   what shoes for my dress??!?
   I have bought a dress with a similar print to the skirt in the link below, the dress is one that comes to just above my knees length wise.

   Thanks

   • ANSWER:

10. QUESTION:
    Where can one find a ‘casual’ top hat?
    This is a bit of an odd question, but I guess it’s because (as evidenced from my avatar) I’m a bit of a fan of dressing a bit smartly. I’m quite a dapper young man and definitely have a rose-tinted, nostalgic view of how gentlemen used to dress (in fact as I type this I am wearing a waistcoat) but at the same time I don’t like to look TOO posh (like when one goes to a wedding in creaseless suits and shiny shoes).

    To that end, I am trying to find something that I can only describe as a ‘casual’ top hat. All I can find online are really-really smart hats for the aforementioned weddings or royal ascot etc., but I want something a bit threadbare; a bit aged, something that is designed to be worn every day, not just special occasions.

    The obvious answer would be to check out charity shops and the like, but I was wondering if anyone could save me a little shoe-leather and direct me to a website (or even a shop that they know of) that may have a selection of hats of this nature.

    I just think one would suit me!
    For extra help, I live in the UK, in Somerset, but I vist London irregularly and so would not mind going there! Thanks for the suggestions so far!

    • ANSWER:
      Here is a website with a good selection in the beginning. Judging how you describe your style, you’ll probably choose to ignore the costumey ones that follow.

      http://www.villagehatshop.com/top_hats.html

      It would greatly help your answerers if you say what area you live in. I’m sure if you live in a big city like New York, people can direct you to stores where you can shop.

11. QUESTION:
    What colors go with light yellow?
    am going to a wedding and I bought a light yellow polka-dotted (the dress its self is yellow and the polka dotts are sheer so they look yellow) dress its a V neck, it’s about 4 or 5 in. above my knee and i need a good color to go with it im having lots of trouble finding a yellow clutch or anything yellow so I decided to move to another color. Could anyone suggest a color and direct me twords some sites or stores that would have the accesories (shoes, jewelry, handbags)?

    • ANSWER:
      Light blue would look good and if you need earrings just go with the classic sliver hoop, oh and get and white head band but make it skinny, you do not want to look over the top.

12. QUESTION:
    What color goes with yellow?
    I am going to a wedding and I bought a yellow polka-dotted dress its a V neck, it’s about 4 or 5 in. above my knee and i need a good color to go with it im having lots of trouble finding a yellow clutch or anything yellow so I decided to move to another color. Could anyone suggest a color and direct me twords some sites or stores that would have the accesories (shoes, jewelry, handbags)?

    • ANSWER:
      You said the dress was polka dotted, what color are the polka dots? Or if the polka dots are yellow, what is the color of the dress itself? I would probably go with white or the color of the dress/polka dots, but you could do other colors depending on the shade of yellow the dress is. Use yellow to perk up a more subdued cool palette of blues and grays. Use lemon yellow with orange to carry out a healthy, summery, citrus theme. Very pale yellows can work as neutrals alongside darker or richer colors. Yellow and blue are a high contrast, eye-popping combination. Mix yellow with neutral gray and a dash of black for a high-tech look.
      Try a hot, exciting mix of red and yellow. For an earthy palette, especially for fall, mix yellow, olive green, and brown. While yellows and bright or light greens can be part of a natural, fruity color palette, be careful not to use colors too close in value or they will appear washed out.

    • ANSWER:
      If you wear white, you will have a very clean-cut, springtime look. Very modern and countryish.

      If you’re not a fan of the white, maybe try black. These shoes might work?:

      Avoid too much black though. We don’t want the bumblebee look.

      For a little more color, try multi-colored jewelry:

15. QUESTION:
    What is proper bridal party etiquette? I’m a bit upset!?
    My brother is getting married this November. His fiance asked me to be in the bridal party. I was excited about the idea. Now I am not sure what to think! She has decided that she doesn’t want anyone to help with the wedding. She is strictly doing everything on her own. Granted it is her wedding and she has full authority on how it will be done. I respect that. But, she has also decided that she does not want any direct contact with her bridesmaid (maid of honor excluded). She is going to email us all the information we need and just have us show up the day of. The wedding is in NOVEMBER! I have yet to even get a single email! I know what dress she chose for her maids but I don’t know what shoes to buy, jewelry, hair, etc…. I am on a budget and need to be prepared for the cost. I want to be part of my brothers wedding!! But isn’t her way of handling this rather rude? Do I have the right to be annoyed with her? Why have bridesmaids if you have no intentions of really including them? She is impossible to talk to and gets mad if you try to go “against the grain”. My mom talks to my brother and tells him that she needs to make contact with her maids but it’s just not happening. Also, my sister is a bridesmaid as well….or so they think. She can’t do it because she lives out of state and is having money trouble. But, my brother and his fiance have yet to call her and properly ask her to be in the party and are just assuming she will say yes. What do I do here? Do I just fall in line and hope the wedding isn’t a total mess? I am getting married myself so I am more worried about the integrity of my own wedding. I will not be making the same mistakes that she is!! I’m just very torn on how to feel at this point. I’m hurt and a bit angry. What do you think?
    It would be a great idea to call or email her but that would require a phone number or email address. My brother is not getting involved in her wedding plans so asking my brother is not an option. And, I don’t care what she is doing for her plans. I want to know what I am doing. I am guessing on which dress she chose for us to wear. I don’t actually know for sure. And, the store she is going thru says we should have purchased and scheduled our fitting alreadys. But, as some of you have said it is not my wedding and I am out of line for wanting to know what I need to do….which is apparently nothing!
    And, my family does not like her and does not support this wedding. I am doing this for my brother and only for my brother. I don’t know her at all. She has no friends. And, it was her idea to put me in the bridal party. I have tried to get to know her. We spent 3 hours in a car together one day and she never mentioned the wedding, ignored my questions when I asked about it, and then asked for my email when I got out of the car. I’m a little bitter, but I’m not exaggerating.

    • ANSWER:
      You say that your mother’s been in contact with your brother, right. So get his number from her and call him at a time when you think he’ll be with her (early evening is usually best). Then just ask him to pass the phone and ask all your questions.

      If she’s not there then just tell him that the other sister won’t be able to be a BM because she’s having money trouble and let him tell the bride. And also tell him that you need the bride to tell you more details about shoes, jewellery etc so that you know how much to save. He might not be involved but the least he can do is play postman for you.

      Then you just sit back. You’ve done your share of trying to sort out details and the rest is up to her.

      Start to save a bit of money every week (whatever you can afford to save) and if it’s enough then great, if not then tell the bride that she didn’t give you enough warning about how much to save and is there any way you can compromise on whatever it is you can’t afford.

      As for her not including you, there is absolutely nothing you can do. If she gets in touch then ask her if there’s anything you can do, tell her that you want to do something but if she says there’s nothing then don’t moan about it. If all she wants is for you to put on a dress and rock up at the wedding then just put on the dress, rock up to the wedding and be grateful that you’re not being used as a slave/ pack-mule.

      Stop stressing.

16. QUESTION:
    Has God ever tricked you, to teach you something?
    Please Explain.
    2. And did you get mad at God?

    God did to me today. I thought to get ready for Church. And asked God for the OK to do so. I got the OK (Lately, the Lord has directed me to stay home more often.).
    I got ready & everything took time to put together. The yellow dress, the tights, the shoes, the slip, the wedding ring, the pearls, the shoulder cover, etc… And then fixing up my hair & face… I asked God about being late… And sensed that it is OK to be 15 minutes late. So? Late again. Went to Church. And no one was there. What happened?!. Here God told me to get ready for Church & go even late. Then I realized it was Saturday.
    So? Then wondered about going to a 7DA Church. But the Lord didn’t want me to go. Nor go to what was going on at the River, since there were a few cars there. I was sure God wanted me to go today.
    But the final reasoning was.This was practice & tomorrow do the same thing but leave 1/2hr earlier. Isn’t it better to be 15 minutes early?
    God didn’t tell my to go late to Church today. I just thought it was Sunday (because yesterday was the 4th & a day off). The Lord confirmed for me to get ready & go to Church today. So? Even directing me. I don’t like to be late, but & tend to be late most of the time. So? I was late today. I had the OK to go late. Not that God asked me to go late.
    I didn’t matter anyway, there wasn’t any Church service today.

    It wasn’t the devil who tricked me.
    Being late is just a problem that I have. Because of difficulty getting organized in time, or because of others making it difficult for me to get ready in time.
    I assure you. It was the Holy Spirit & not the devil. I can easily discern the devil.
    Rallie, It is coincidental, I just decided to see my room in order. And the last two days, spent much time getting in order. No easy job. But I have had much difficulty seeing order in my room for quite a while. So? It is more orderly right now than in a long time.
    DanKush, Thanks, but I don’t believe God gave you the disease. Because of my Pastors preaching. Disease is from the devil, or sin whether ones own sin or someone elses sins.
    But God may have allowed you to get a disease.
    Once God told me that someone I cared about would hurt me. That night I woke up the next morning with a blind spot in my eye. And I had super high blood pressure. And also my son gave the keys of my car to someone who gave them to a 16yr old single mother without a license, who wrecked my car. And the Insurance didn’t want to pay the 00 to pay for the damage done to my car. So?God told me to be merciful to the girl. So I was. The insurance did pay for it though. After my husband harrassed the insurance all night one night. I spent 2 visits to the hospital. Because of blood pressure that week.
    So?God didn’t give me the blind spot nor the high blood pressure. Someone I cared about cursed my vision & my son disobeyed me. The devil gave me the blind spots.
    Electro, This is the first time this has happened. I follow after the Spirit regularily. I know who the Spirit Is. So? And God does trick people to learn a point. That is what this was for me. I figured it out.
    What about those who tricked the enemy who held people captives to free them, who are in the news right now. This was a godly act. The devil didn’t save those people from their kidnappers.

    • ANSWER:
      God gave me a disease, giving me warning that I was going to get it, but it was destiny for me to get it. I got it, and wasnt blinded by obscurity of what I had to do, what the purpose of having contrated something that would change my life. I had two options, to research something like I never had before, giving up much of the life I had, or take the “advice” of another. I chose to have confidence in myself, and my abilities as a person, knowing that If I wanted to, I could achieve anything I wanted, I could understand what many had never had the capability to. Now a little over a year later I see the bigger meaning of what GOD did to me, he gave me a future, he opened up my eyes as to the meaning of life, of what was needed to see things that are not so clear. I believe that God did this to me so that I could lead the future, so that I could become something, because maybe it had been my purpose all along to achieve and be greater in some way. I learned things that some will never know, a lesson that is priceless, and a vision that inspires me to get to where God wanted me to go. Its weird because every day I learn something new about why God did this to me, how piece by peice it just came together, like it had already been set there for me to analyze and come up with a solution that would get me to the next puzzle piece. I try and help others the way god helped me, but what I can see is that God didnt have the same purpose for everybody on earth, I was chosen among them for some reason, which I still dont know, but am learning every day more about it. I wish I could explain to you what exaclty all of this is, but you wouldnt believe me if I told you, because God chooses which people have the capability of believing, and which people dont. Its survival of the fittest to put it bluntly, maybe God gives al people this puzzle, and those that are able to see past the meaning of what he has given you are logically more fit, than those that dont. Afterall, what is the purpose of lif, is it to become a hollywood superstar or a football player, or paris hilton, the meaning of life is to survive among all, to advance the species you belong to, to adapt tp change and believe you have the capability, if you do not believe you can’t achieve.

17. QUESTION:
    I need to write a conclusion for my essay? 10 points!?
    I have writen an essay on Bend it like Beckham (movie), explaining why the wedding scene was “flamboyantly choreographed and visually dazzling.” We had to write one paragraph about the music, one about the costumes, and one about the camera shots. I’ve done all of that, and now I can’t think of what to write for my conclusion. Please help? Thanks in advance!

    Here is my essay so far (you don’t have to read the whole essay, I just put it there in case you wanted to, even just giving me a guide of how to go about writing my conclusion would be great):
    The movie, “Bend it like Beckham,” is about an Anglo-Indian teenager, who has a dream, but has trouble making her parents believe in it too. Directed by Gurinda Chadha, and released in 2002, Bend it like Beckham managed to make the wedding scene elaborate and radiant, by using effective camera shots, intricate costumes and well-suited music. This review will discuss how they managed to achieve this elaborate vibe.

    The music in the wedding scene of Bend it like Beckham always seems to perfectly suit the moment. They have used the music to show us the mood, the setting and what is happening. There are very few moments where there is no music playing and these moments are always very serious. One example of this is when Jess’s father walks outside in the middle of the pre-wedding celebrations, because he sees Joe outside the house. The music gradually gets softer and when it gets up to the part where Joe is talking to Jess, there is no music anymore. This is because it is a very serious and important section. It is also to contrast it with the liveliness of the party. One example when the music is not Indian themed, is when Jess is taking a free kick in the grand final. It is slow, churchlike and operatic. The song is called Nessun Dorma and it turns into a major key when Jess is kicking the ball. This music is very powerful and shows how important this moment is, especially to Jess. The Indian themed music is mainly used during all scenes that are at Jess’s house. The music works superbly at all of the pre-wedding celebrations. It is sometimes a blend between techno and traditional, but it is always fast-paced, slightly minor, and often has a strong beat. All of the music used is ideal for what they need and is therefore, stunning.

    The costumes that Gurinda Chadha has used throughout the wedding scene of Bend it like Beckham are impressive and eye-catching. All the people of the Indian culture in this movie dress using many bright colours which is contrasted with the dull, unadorned clothes of English culture. Even the men wear very brightly coloured clothes compared to the plain clothes that English men wear. During the wedding scene, most of the men wear neutral trousers, colourful shirts and a turban; although, the groom wears a white shirt and pants and shoes with gold patterns on the edge, along with a pale red, Indian patterned scarf and a pale red turban. They make an obvious comparison of the difference in style between the men in these cultures when Joe turns up at the Bhamra’s the night before the wedding. The well-adorned clothes of the Mr Bhamra are contrasted with the Joe’s plain black suit with a white shirt underneath. A third example of the decorative Indian wear compared to the plain English wear is when Jess is getting changed from her soccer uniform, back into her pink wedding sari. The soccer uniform is mainly white with a little bit of red on it, and is now very dirty. Jess’s teammates help Jess change out of that and into her perfectly clean, ankle length sari that has gold edges and gold dots on the big sash. Gurinda Chadha definitely created the striking effect she was after.

    Gurinda Chadha has used countless different camera angles and shots to create all of the amazing effects that were used during the wedding scene. By using different camera rotations, angles, distances and speeds, a wide range of effects have been created that have helped us to feel the moods in the scenes. A great example of this is when we have a very long shot of the Bhamra’s house the night before the wedding. We can see their house with bright lights on standing next to all of the other houses, which are in complete darkness. The music is lively party music is still playing in the background, and because of all of this, we can tell how big their celebrations really are. Another example of the fantastic ways that they use their camera, is when Jess is spinning, on the night before the wedding, with something [I’m not sure what it is] balanced on her head, the camera is at eye level spinning in circles from Jess’s point of view, gradually increasing speed as Jess does. The best part of this shot is how they decided to film it from Jess’s perspective. It really gives us a good idea of what Jess is feeling in this part of the movie. Gurinda Chadha has used numerous inspirational camera techniques in Bend it like Beckham.

18. QUESTION:
    Would you read the next part?
    Keep in mind that I’m not a very experienced writer seeing as I’m only thirteen. I’m just writing because I enjoy it and it’s not perfect because its only a draft.

    As I heard the tires of our car hit the gravel of our new driveway I sighed and moved my head so I could glare out the window. My sister Laura and my mom are so ecstatic that we’re moving to a town so small it doesn’t even have a memorable name. My mom promised to buy Laura two new horses’s adding to the three she’s already got. She also promised to buy me and my older brother Liam a dog but we don’t trust her with her promises.
    “I’m going to call them Apples and Barney no, no Tootles and Spot…” Laura started.
    “How about dumb and dumber like their owner” She stuck her tongue out at me. Liam laughed and mom, well let’s just say she did not look happy. The week before this my dad had a car crash mom and Liam were in the car at the time. Everyone misses him, I think. I closed my eyes and tried to think of happier things. Before long we came to a halt and Laura jumped out of the car screaming.
    “We’re home!” she exclaimed. I got out of the car and went to stand next to Liam.
    “Just asking, where the heck is the house?” I asked looking around.
    “Up on the hill silly” Liam chuckled pointing.
    I looked down at my shoes then back at the house more than twice. Ballet flats aren’t the perfect shoes for climbing hills. I looked back at the house. From down here it looked like a topper on a green wedding cake.
    “Come on Nora while were still young” Liam called. I hurried to catch up with the rest of my family. While we were climbing I overheard my mom talking to someone on her cell phone, surprise, surprise there’s reception in the middle of nowhere, the person, who sounded like a man, was flirting with my mom, not very well may I just say, and she wasn’t saying anything. It’s just some up himself work colleague I tried to convince myself unsuccessfully.
    Liam seemed to enjoy himself. Every time I tripped over my big feet he would be there laughing. I was out of breath by the time we reached the top.
    “Laura your horses are over there,” mom said pointing to a paddock about fifty meters from the house were two chestnut horses stood, “Liam your dog is out the back I’ll show you your rooms later.” She walked off her phone glued to her ear. I felt my eyes prick as I noticed she said ‘Liam your dog is out the back’ not Liam and Nora.
    “Nora it’s alright she’s just so upset about da—“Liam broke off mid sentence. He was glaring at something behind me. I attempted to turn around but Liam grabbed me by the shoulders and directed me to the back of the house. I struggled against his firm grip until he finally let me go. I walked back to where we were standing but there was nothing there.
    “Liam what were you looking at?” I asked puzzled by his expression. His face was murderous.
    “Im—going—to—kill—her” He hissed.
