Since I have been blogging I have been getting tons of emails asking me for advice. In the spirit of "Dear Abby" I thought I would answer some of the more common questions on the blog. Urban advice does not discriminate. Hopefully this column will make you realise that you are not alone!
Dear Urbby,
I have been playing with different fashion trends lately, but I find that everytime I bedazzle something I look like a street walker. I am desperate to look like a true urban woman, but it seems as though "the look" does not work on my physique. When I wear chunky wedges I look like I'm walking down a hill and when I put glitter eyeliner on my friends tell me I look like I fell asleep on a glitter glue craft. What can I do to achieve the look I want without sacrificing my relationships?
Sincerely,
Fashion faker
Dear Fashion Faker,
Everyone has their own personal style and that is what really makes life Urban. While there are some trends you should be sporting during the summer season, it is also important that you wear things that look good on you. If chunky heels don't work, my guess is that you have size 13 feet. Think about getting a late onset foot binding to tone back the scale of your feet. If glitter eyeliner doesn't look good on you, try some metallic liners that sweep from inner eye all the way to your hairline. This will create an illusion that your eyes are bigger than the pea-size that they likely are. As for bedazzling, you might want to go online and watch a couple of you-tube vids to get some lessons. You are probably not useing a wide enough array of gemstone colours, sizes, and shapes. Keep your head held high and be flexible with your Urban style.
Yours in crisis,
Urbby
Dear Urbby,
I am in a fight with one of my best girlfriends-and it is all over an Urban Man. We both met him at the same time while driving through Tim Horton's drive through pick up window. He has been working there for a few months now. We both think he is totally studly and even when he wears a hairnet he looks totally hot. I think he likes me but he keeps sexting my girlfriend. He gave me a free 'roll up the rim to win' cup, but he gave her an extra white roll with her order of chilli. How do I know who he likes? I don't want to break up my friendship, but this guy is basically my everything. Is he into me?
From,
Stallion Hunter
Dear Stallion Hunter,
I don't want to be the one to break the bad news to you, but this guy sounds like he is totally worth breaking up your friendship over. I have dated a guy from a drive through window myself, and he was totally loyal, hot, and could give me great discounts. A "roll up the rim to win" cup is probably worth more than a free bun, and even though he is sexting your friend, he probably entered the name wrong in his cell phone and he thinks he is sexting you! Next time you go to Timmies I suggest you wear something really sizzling to get his attention. Try a plunging v, or an open backed gown. Order something extra special from the menu so he takes the time to notice you (extra ham on your sandwich, or a side order of honey mustard for your boston cream doughnut). If your girlfriend can't accept your feelings she probably isn't that good of a friend anyway. Take it all the way-you haven't won this one until you ride that wild stallion.
Encouragingly,
Urbby
I love hearing from you all so keep the emails coming!
Until next time,
Urban Woman (Urbby)
