Montgros to St. Chely
Notes from the foot sackers. Good weather, not too hot. Still coughing. Same sQuashed toe. Rained yesterday. Classic country walks today through cow fields. Luckily dry so no mud or wet cow pats. Cows d'Aubrac are a big breed here and are beautiful. And free range, as are chickens (see photo). Climbed up for several hours then back down a steep andu painful path. Fortunately I ran into Anna of Australia again so we were able to give one another some moral support. Yesterday, hiking through another cow field we ran across Bernard, a man with two burros. He was halted in the field, and if I understood him correctly he was saying that the burros would not cross a very small puddle in the field and he was stuck. Also yesterday a stile that we had to climb over (photo of Anne post-stile). Not a welcomed obstacle. Saw some pigeons. Squashed frog ( see photo).Relived re French bread. Was worried in Le Puy that we would not find any real boulangeries. No fear. There have been many along the way and beautiful bread specimens in most. KB still pretty depressed about lack of frites. Also, no staplers in France. I have yet to see soup de poisson, buto are moving out of the Massif region and into Languedoc, so perhaps the menu will begin to change. Also tired of "pilgrim breakfast.". French way to save money by feeding you yesterday's stale bread with jam for breakfast. Not enough protein for a hungry pilgrim about to stomp o'er vale and hill. Lovely church (see photo) and garden at Aubrac. Interesting murals inside inside. One referenced "ultreia" which pilgrims used to say along with a response (something like "et sus eiea") apparently Latin from Hebrew and per haps something else before that. Meaning something like moving on and moving up (the latter spiritually). French squatter toilets exist still, I'm sorry to say. Have been desperate enough to use them and have not forgotten the technique. Interesting how standards begin to deteriorate on the road. Now a stall shower that only flood the bathroom a little is a hotel high point. Dinner tonight included confit of duck. Really Good. More cheese. Another tomme, another bleu.

BUSCA QB Conques
Friday/Saturday, August 27/28, 2010; Espalion to Golinhac to Conques; cooler than 42C but still too warm; better today; still sick.Happy Birthday to me and thanks to St. Jacques/Jacmo/Jacob/Iago/James/Jimmy/Great Atuin, there are birthday miracles to report:1. France received its allotted annual EU consignment of staplers and we got one! Ditto plug adapters. KB finally glutted on frites. Spoiled by catsup.Hiked from Espalion to Estaing. Should have been easy except certain pilgrims blindly followed the signs instead of the maps, which would have showed me a nice flat road, and was forced to climb what was effectively a 2mile vertical wall of red dirt with few footholds. After a few feet, realized error, but was too afraid to roll back down so had to keep going. Near death at top (guidebook: "good views all round." Idiots!). Staggered into Estaing, lovely town (see photos, apparently the town council thinks so too). Met Ian (intrepid Aussie pilgrim, bothered by no road), who could not believe I had climbed the stupid hill. Even he had wisely taken the road. We were also concerned about Ann and two German pilgrims (Erika and Trautha??) who had not yet arrived (I'm pretty slow). After being told that an empty table for 6 could not be used because we were three, we sat around. Ann staggered in about 30min later, having been suckered by the same hill. She claimed to have climbed it literally on hands and knees because of the backpack weight. The Germans turned up after a bit, also sucker punched and not impressed by the views. Taxi for me to Golinhac via bike repair truck. Couldn't walk any more.Shout out to Bob: 1) staplers are used by pilgrims to keep map pages in order, 2) you mean Hugo can turn around in your shower without the curtain sticking.Today (8/28) an "easy" walk to Conques, yet another UNESCO site and imaginary medieval village (see photo). Guidebook, which lies like a rug, said it was about13 miles. GPS showed 17.5 with a 2 mile steep downhill from St Marcel (the REAL pilgrim way). Note: ST. Marcel had very vigilant chickens. Made it, but now can only limp. Beautiful city with important Cathedral containing relics (v.important to have relics) of St. Foy, a 12 year old 3rd C (or thereabouts), typically grisly martyr: decapitated-although no explanation why unless you fork out 6Euros to see the reliquary and some other stuff.Good photo of St. Peter with cockerel from some other church.Shout-out to NOLA. During hike, dreaming of alleged 3-star hotel (standards low in France). Imagine my surprise and delight when we discovered our 3-star "upgrade" was a metal FEMA prefab without soap, towels, etc. In a campground. No restaurant. Not amused. Made up for it with good cheese and a superb melon (Charentais?) from epicerie for dinner.Shout out to Stephen Colbert: to Threatdown List add 1) mountains, 2) squatters (FR toilets).

Freshly baked | Luxirare
Ha, no I didn’t bake this jacket, but actually… in a way …I did. One of the finishing touches to leather working (this technique is used for bags) is to literally blow dry the bag. This melts all the loose stitches. Of course one does not use a hair blow dryer, there’s a special heat gun for leather working…This heat also sets the leather, pulls in the seams, and structures the bag to keep it’s shape, so if you dry a square shaped bag, the bag will look squarer if you apply heat to it.. I use this method for leather jackets also, if there are any pattern pieces of leather that stretched out while sewing, you can heat the leather to bring it back to it’s original shape. It also helps set the lapel, collar, and sleeves. It’s kind of like sculpting the jacket at the very end, and it makes a world of difference between the cheapey leather jackets and the expensive looking ones. Everyone knows you can’t iron a leather jacket the way you can iron fabric, well this is kind of like ironing it. Kind of. I love doing it because I feel like the jacket came fresh out of the oven, like cookies. While it is somewhat enjoyable, it’s also dangerous. You can burn the leather if you don’t know what you’re doing. I’m not finished with this design yet, I still have to add custom snaps and finish the arm lining.

Angelina Jolie Collaborating on Jewelry Line - Jewelry - Accessories - WWD.com
As if being an actress, director, mother and U.N. goodwill ambassador didn’t keep her busy enough, Angelina Jolie is collaborating on a jewelry collection.
She has teamed with Robert Procop, a former chief executive officer of Asprey, who now makes bespoke pieces under the name Robert Procop Exceptional Jewels, to create a collection of jewelry with statement stones.
Procop has been designing pieces for Jolie for the past decade, and they began their collaboration over the last year. The actress wore one of the pieces they created, a faceted black spinel necklace bezel set in rose gold, to the premiere of her film “Salt” in Berlin last summer.
“Angelina has very classic style,” said Procop, who showed items from his collection in London last week. “These are pieces she wears herself.”
Among the collaborative pieces are a pebble-size, pale green 353-carat beryl pendant, in a rose gold setting and worn on a chain of cushion shape beryl stones, and a graphic, tablet-shape 12.02-carat vivid green emerald ring set in rose gold. Procop said Jolie’s design for the emerald was inspired by “ancient tablet engravings,” and is based on a similar design she created with Procop as a gift for her partner, Brad Pitt.
Pieces from the collection will not be sold in stores, but will be sold privately through Procop’s network of clients, with all of the proceeds from the collaborative designs going toward Jolie’s charity, the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict. Each piece will be priced individually.
The collection follows Jolie and Pitt’s collaboration on a capsule jewelry line with Asprey last year, which also benefitted the actress’s charity.
Procop designed and sourced pieces that Jolie wears in her new movie, “The Tourist,” including a vintage diamond choker and a pair of yellow sapphire, rectangular cushion cut earrings.
In addition to serving as ceo of Asprey for two years, Procop was ceo of the then-Asprey & Garrard from 1999 to 2000. After the brands were split, he was ceo of Garrard from 2006 to 2008. For the latest venture, Procop said he was drawn to his roots in “exceptional jewels.” Procop has opened a design studio in Beverly Hills, as well as a laboratory in Geneva and offices in New York and Hong Kong.
He noted that in uncertain economic times, many of his clients see major jewelry purchases as investments. Procop works with stones such as emeralds sourced from Colombia, sapphires from Brazil and red and pink diamonds from the Argyle mines in Australia. Among his current designs are a 77.45-carat, brilliant step cushion cut sapphire ring and a 77.7-carat paraiba ring set in rose gold.
“The design of the jewelry starts with the stone, and how to maximize its brilliance and color,” Procop said. “I design the piece of jewelry around it — a beautiful stone should sit by itself.”

Busca Aumont-Aubrac 2
August 23 Partly cloudy with rain on the way. At least cooler.A rest and repair day. Laundry, sleep, tourist (Roman church of course), bank.QB is still suffering with her nasty virus. Breathing difficulties, coughing, energy and will sapping. Desole´. Credit cards work, generally if one is persistent. It appears that the French do not use any other than the EU Blue card. When presented with an Amex card merchants either decline or use it for a while and it fails. Visa cards work but they go into a different slot on their portable card readers. Suspect that the card readers expect a chip (no signature when a Blue card is used). We have often had to show them which slot to use on the machine and which side of the card to put facing. In general have given up using cards for items that are small and reverted to cash except in restaurants; there we persist.A visit to the local tourist office produced more information about aligot. The cows of Aubrac have been bred to make a certain cheese, Tomme, naturally. It is the required cheese for a proper aligot. The tourist office staff member developed an expression of faint disdain when we mentioned Cantal cheese as the correct cheese for alight. Suspect we would have had a different result in the adjoining Cantal region.Tomorrow we leave the Auvergne heading to the Lozère. Still up on the central massif, day after tomorrow we will reach its highest point a bit over 1300 meters, then a death defying descent of 26km dropping to sea level into the Lot valley. One terror at a time please.Better breakfast today. No dry crusts for pilgrims like yesterday. Breakfast buffet included something akin to crème fraiche. It did not seem to be thick enough for c. fraiche. Not sure. Was not sour cream and was not yogurt or a farm cheese. Will ask tomorrow if I remember. Still not finding much in the way of veggies or fruit. It can be found and, at least for the veggies, ordered but not common. The local market where we would have stocked up on some fruit was closed by the time we finished breakfast - no problem, it will open again at 15:00. Many stores and restaurants are still closed on Mondays. Met three German bike riders. Lyon to Santiago. One was riding a Swiss Army bike. Very very strong and heavy. One gear! His partners in crime said he had to walk a lot of hills. No doubt in my mind. He claimed to do it for his heart.Dinner: bouef fondant reduction. Like a great pot roast with a red wine and beef stock reduction. Trout and aligot along with a rosé langdouc, the region we are now in. A tartare of salmon encrusted with lentils.

BUSCA QB Conques
Friday/Saturday, August 27/28, 2010; Espalion to Golinhac to Conques; cooler than 42C but still too warm; better today; still sick.Happy Birthday to me and thanks to St. Jacques/Jacmo/Jacob/Iago/James/Jimmy/Great Atuin, there are birthday miracles to report:1. France received its allotted annual EU consignment of staplers and we got one! Ditto plug adapters. KB finally glutted on frites. Spoiled by catsup.Hiked from Espalion to Estaing. Should have been easy except certain pilgrims blindly followed the signs instead of the maps, which would have showed me a nice flat road, and was forced to climb what was effectively a 2mile vertical wall of red dirt with few footholds. After a few feet, realized error, but was too afraid to roll back down so had to keep going. Near death at top (guidebook: "good views all round." Idiots!). Staggered into Estaing, lovely town (see photos, apparently the town council thinks so too). Met Ian (intrepid Aussie pilgrim, bothered by no road), who could not believe I had climbed the stupid hill. Even he had wisely taken the road. We were also concerned about Ann and two German pilgrims (Erika and Trautha??) who had not yet arrived (I'm pretty slow). After being told that an empty table for 6 could not be used because we were three, we sat around. Ann staggered in about 30min later, having been suckered by the same hill. She claimed to have climbed it literally on hands and knees because of the backpack weight. The Germans turned up after a bit, also sucker punched and not impressed by the views. Taxi for me to Golinhac via bike repair truck. Couldn't walk any more.Shout out to Bob: 1) staplers are used by pilgrims to keep map pages in order, 2) you mean Hugo can turn around in your shower without the curtain sticking.Today (8/28) an "easy" walk to Conques, yet another UNESCO site and imaginary medieval village (see photo). Guidebook, which lies like a rug, said it was about13 miles. GPS showed 17.5 with a 2 mile steep downhill from St Marcel (the REAL pilgrim way). Note: ST. Marcel had very vigilant chickens. Made it, but now can only limp. Beautiful city with important Cathedral containing relics (v.important to have relics) of St. Foy, a 12 year old 3rd C (or thereabouts), typically grisly martyr: decapitated-although no explanation why unless you fork out 6Euros to see the reliquary and some other stuff.Good photo of St. Peter with cockerel from some other church.Shout-out to NOLA. During hike, dreaming of alleged 3-star hotel (standards low in France). Imagine my surprise and delight when we discovered our 3-star "upgrade" was a metal FEMA prefab without soap, towels, etc. In a campground. No restaurant. Not amused. Made up for it with good cheese and a superb melon (Charentais?) from epicerie for dinner.Shout out to Stephen Colbert: to Threatdown List add 1) mountains, 2) squatters (FR toilets).

Montgros to St. Chely
Notes from the foot sackers. Good weather, not too hot. Still coughing. Same sQuashed toe. Rained yesterday. Classic country walks today through cow fields. Luckily dry so no mud or wet cow pats. Cows d'Aubrac are a big breed here and are beautiful. And free range, as are chickens (see photo). Climbed up for several hours then back down a steep andu painful path. Fortunately I ran into Anna of Australia again so we were able to give one another some moral support. Yesterday, hiking through another cow field we ran across Bernard, a man with two burros. He was halted in the field, and if I understood him correctly he was saying that the burros would not cross a very small puddle in the field and he was stuck. Also yesterday a stile that we had to climb over (photo of Anne post-stile). Not a welcomed obstacle. Saw some pigeons. Squashed frog ( see photo).Relived re French bread. Was worried in Le Puy that we would not find any real boulangeries. No fear. There have been many along the way and beautiful bread specimens in most. KB still pretty depressed about lack of frites. Also, no staplers in France. I have yet to see soup de poisson, buto are moving out of the Massif region and into Languedoc, so perhaps the menu will begin to change. Also tired of "pilgrim breakfast.". French way to save money by feeding you yesterday's stale bread with jam for breakfast. Not enough protein for a hungry pilgrim about to stomp o'er vale and hill. Lovely church (see photo) and garden at Aubrac. Interesting murals inside inside. One referenced "ultreia" which pilgrims used to say along with a response (something like "et sus eiea") apparently Latin from Hebrew and per haps something else before that. Meaning something like moving on and moving up (the latter spiritually). French squatter toilets exist still, I'm sorry to say. Have been desperate enough to use them and have not forgotten the technique. Interesting how standards begin to deteriorate on the road. Now a stall shower that only flood the bathroom a little is a hotel high point. Dinner tonight included confit of duck. Really Good. More cheese. Another tomme, another bleu.

Affordable Utah Weddings Your free guide to affordable Utah wedding vendors
Some other tips (from onewed.com)…
Get a good set of hot rollers. Hot rollers are key to creating loose, natural-looking curls. Wash your hair, apply some curling cream to the roots, flip your head over and blow dry upside down. Flip hair again and brush it out lightly. When your hair is dry, section off large pieces and set them in hot rollers, starting at your forehead, working your way to the sides, and finishing with the back. Rub some curling cream between your palms, remove the rollers, then finger-style to reduce frizz. “You’ll be left with soft, piece-y curls that are easy to sweep up and pin in place,” says Romero.
• Use the train track bobby pin method. “When you’re ready to create the updo, put away your comband brush. “They’re a trade secret. They don’t slip and come in colors to match your hair.” Starting at the front of your head, take a three-inch section and gently pull it back, securing with two bobby pins, criss-
• Plan ahead, and practice!
Basic 40s and 50s Curl Sets « Skirting The Issue
I love sharing my little revelations with you guys, so since I finally got two basic curl sets figured out I thought I should write a tutorial. I’m going to show you a good basic 40s set, and a basic 50s set. The difference is that the 40s set has more volume on the bottom half and generally lies smooth over the crown, where the 50s set has more volume all over. Though they seem to be so similar you could easily interchange them and hardly anybody would know the difference. Depending on your hair, one could turn out looking like the other.
I’m going to show you the setting patterns for rollers since most of us are not quite skilled enough in the art of pin curls, but if you are they’re easily converted. You’ll have more and smaller curls but the directions will be the same. These are great beginner sets; they don’t involve a bunch of different layers going in opposite directions, and with practice they can easily be done in 10-15 minutes. For the sake of simplicity, I’ll be showing you my own hair after being set by the diagrams I’ve made (though I take no credit for designing them. Chances are a bazillion people before me have done the same ones). The celebrities hair have of course not been done using my diagrams, but it was probably set in a similar way and they do a better job of showing the difference between the decades, and an idealized look at how these should turn out. Now don’t forget your end papers and setting lotion! Ready?
Let’s start with the 40s set.
Front
Back
Veronica Lake, who's hair is even longer than my own.
Lauren Bacall, with a more traditional length.
This set is rolled only up to your ears, excepting the bang area which goes right up to the scalp, so the long curl will help frame your face. All curls will be going down, but you can tilt the ones in front towards your face if you like. You can do this in as many rows as you like, but for normal to fine hair and using rollers one can easily be enough. I prefer to have the curls done in an even row(s) all around the head, so that when you brush it out it creates nice uniform waves, but as every day 40s hair tends to be a little fluffier this isn’t so necessary. This is in fact an excellent set to try doing with pin curls.
You probably won't need this.
When your hair is set, it might actually look pretty cute. If you come out with kinks in the top, you can use a flat iron or curling iron to smooth it out. Keep in mind that sponge rollers with their plastic clasps do tend to create kinks more than others, so I’m not partial to them. But you can use whatever you’re most comfortable with. I’m loyal to my pillow rollers, and when they’re not available I rag roll with whatever I can find. There’s a how-to video on this at the bottom of the article. Here’s the 40s set done with strips of paper towels. It needed to be brushed again, so don’t mind the ringlets and crazy flyaways.
And now here’s the 50s set.
Damn, I got that on the first try! I wish I could say the same for the second and third tries. We’re all learning together. You might find that this looks similar to the 40s set, however it’s rolled right up to the scalp which creates more volume all over. You can see the difference a lot better on shorter hair.
Elizabeth Taylor's shorter hair demonstrates the volume starting right from the crown, as opposed to the more bottom-heavy look of the 40s.
Again, keep in mind that your hair cut affects the final look, so you might not have those face framing curls from the pictures. And if your hair is longer like mine, the weight might keep the crown looking smooth and 40s no matter what. That doesn’t mean it won’t look good, just go with what you have and make it yours.
My crappy drawing is a rough guide to how the curls should be positioned. Hopefully it's not TOO crappy to understand.
As you can see, there are about 4 curls going down the center of the head; the front one going forward and the others going back. The second one can go towards what will be the thick side of your part, but I find it difficult for some reason and unnecessary. Then you’ll have two on each side going down.
The easiest way to go about this is to start with your hair parted deeply to whichever side you prefer, about over the arch of your eyebrow. Grab the section above your ear on the thin side and curl it down, or angled slightly forward if you like. Then grab a section of similar size behind it and curl it down as well, trying to get it to the same level. Then you can do the two curls on the top of your head, separated by another symmetrical parting over the other eyebrow. Curl the other side to match the first, and finally separate what’s left in the back into two curls going downward. Like before, if you have more hair or you’re using smaller rollers or pin curls, you’ll have more curls but they’ll still be going the same way. When you’re done you’ll look incredibly silly. Cover with a Rosie bandanna.
Make sure to brush this one out slowly and against your hand to keep it as smooth as possible, and shape the curls so they blend together. Hopefully you come out with a winner!
Like this!
I hope I explained these well enough. If you have any questions let me know. I’m going to finalize this by showing you a video that explains rag rolling quite well, since it’s incredibly useful if you don’t have any rollers handy and it’s something a lot of people have trouble with. It’s not half as hard as you might think. Good luck, guys!

Skirting The Issue
Now, the most important thing to create a beehive is a rat, or hair filler. I mean, you don’t NEED one, but it’s a hell of a lot harder without it, and you’re more likely to end up with a rat’s nest instead. I use a long narrow rat for bumper bangs, so I curved it into a U shape with the middle facing up for this look. You can also just use a round or ball-y shaped one. A lot of people put cotton or fake/real hair into some pantyhose or a hair net for this. Bumpits are crap btw. Put your rat on the crown of your head or slightly higher in case of sagging or just to make it all the more epic. Pin it in place. Then bit by bit, take the hair from the top of your head and tease the living shit out of it, and pin it over the rat. Do this until you look like Dolly Parton. The last bit that will cover the surface should be left smooth. Then you just need pomade and a light touch with a comb to smooth the top out, and lot of hairspray. I slept in mine and it somehow actually survived, only shrinking a little. Which was perfect as I was feeling lazy and liked it and wanted to leave it up for work. Anyway, you can leave the bottom in beachy waves like Bridgette Bardot, put it in a ponytail, or for more of a Hairspray or formal look, twist it up into a French twist and tuck the ends in.
Holy crap that was easy.
This is not me, but I do feel this fabulous.

Angelina Jolie Collaborating on Jewelry Line - Jewelry - Accessories - WWD.com
As if being an actress, director, mother and U.N. goodwill ambassador didn’t keep her busy enough, Angelina Jolie is collaborating on a jewelry collection.
She has teamed with Robert Procop, a former chief executive officer of Asprey, who now makes bespoke pieces under the name Robert Procop Exceptional Jewels, to create a collection of jewelry with statement stones.
Procop has been designing pieces for Jolie for the past decade, and they began their collaboration over the last year. The actress wore one of the pieces they created, a faceted black spinel necklace bezel set in rose gold, to the premiere of her film “Salt” in Berlin last summer.
“Angelina has very classic style,” said Procop, who showed items from his collection in London last week. “These are pieces she wears herself.”
Among the collaborative pieces are a pebble-size, pale green 353-carat beryl pendant, in a rose gold setting and worn on a chain of cushion shape beryl stones, and a graphic, tablet-shape 12.02-carat vivid green emerald ring set in rose gold. Procop said Jolie’s design for the emerald was inspired by “ancient tablet engravings,” and is based on a similar design she created with Procop as a gift for her partner, Brad Pitt.
Pieces from the collection will not be sold in stores, but will be sold privately through Procop’s network of clients, with all of the proceeds from the collaborative designs going toward Jolie’s charity, the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict. Each piece will be priced individually.
The collection follows Jolie and Pitt’s collaboration on a capsule jewelry line with Asprey last year, which also benefitted the actress’s charity.
Procop designed and sourced pieces that Jolie wears in her new movie, “The Tourist,” including a vintage diamond choker and a pair of yellow sapphire, rectangular cushion cut earrings.
In addition to serving as ceo of Asprey for two years, Procop was ceo of the then-Asprey & Garrard from 1999 to 2000. After the brands were split, he was ceo of Garrard from 2006 to 2008. For the latest venture, Procop said he was drawn to his roots in “exceptional jewels.” Procop has opened a design studio in Beverly Hills, as well as a laboratory in Geneva and offices in New York and Hong Kong.
He noted that in uncertain economic times, many of his clients see major jewelry purchases as investments. Procop works with stones such as emeralds sourced from Colombia, sapphires from Brazil and red and pink diamonds from the Argyle mines in Australia. Among his current designs are a 77.45-carat, brilliant step cushion cut sapphire ring and a 77.7-carat paraiba ring set in rose gold.
“The design of the jewelry starts with the stone, and how to maximize its brilliance and color,” Procop said. “I design the piece of jewelry around it — a beautiful stone should sit by itself.”

Affordable Utah Weddings Your free guide to affordable Utah wedding vendors
Some other tips (from onewed.com)…
Get a good set of hot rollers. Hot rollers are key to creating loose, natural-looking curls. Wash your hair, apply some curling cream to the roots, flip your head over and blow dry upside down. Flip hair again and brush it out lightly. When your hair is dry, section off large pieces and set them in hot rollers, starting at your forehead, working your way to the sides, and finishing with the back. Rub some curling cream between your palms, remove the rollers, then finger-style to reduce frizz. “You’ll be left with soft, piece-y curls that are easy to sweep up and pin in place,” says Romero.
• Use the train track bobby pin method. “When you’re ready to create the updo, put away your comband brush. “They’re a trade secret. They don’t slip and come in colors to match your hair.” Starting at the front of your head, take a three-inch section and gently pull it back, securing with two bobby pins, criss-
• Plan ahead, and practice!
Basic 40s and 50s Curl Sets « Skirting The Issue
I love sharing my little revelations with you guys, so since I finally got two basic curl sets figured out I thought I should write a tutorial. I’m going to show you a good basic 40s set, and a basic 50s set. The difference is that the 40s set has more volume on the bottom half and generally lies smooth over the crown, where the 50s set has more volume all over. Though they seem to be so similar you could easily interchange them and hardly anybody would know the difference. Depending on your hair, one could turn out looking like the other.
I’m going to show you the setting patterns for rollers since most of us are not quite skilled enough in the art of pin curls, but if you are they’re easily converted. You’ll have more and smaller curls but the directions will be the same. These are great beginner sets; they don’t involve a bunch of different layers going in opposite directions, and with practice they can easily be done in 10-15 minutes. For the sake of simplicity, I’ll be showing you my own hair after being set by the diagrams I’ve made (though I take no credit for designing them. Chances are a bazillion people before me have done the same ones). The celebrities hair have of course not been done using my diagrams, but it was probably set in a similar way and they do a better job of showing the difference between the decades, and an idealized look at how these should turn out. Now don’t forget your end papers and setting lotion! Ready?
Let’s start with the 40s set.
Front
Back
Veronica Lake, who's hair is even longer than my own.
Lauren Bacall, with a more traditional length.
This set is rolled only up to your ears, excepting the bang area which goes right up to the scalp, so the long curl will help frame your face. All curls will be going down, but you can tilt the ones in front towards your face if you like. You can do this in as many rows as you like, but for normal to fine hair and using rollers one can easily be enough. I prefer to have the curls done in an even row(s) all around the head, so that when you brush it out it creates nice uniform waves, but as every day 40s hair tends to be a little fluffier this isn’t so necessary. This is in fact an excellent set to try doing with pin curls.
You probably won't need this.
When your hair is set, it might actually look pretty cute. If you come out with kinks in the top, you can use a flat iron or curling iron to smooth it out. Keep in mind that sponge rollers with their plastic clasps do tend to create kinks more than others, so I’m not partial to them. But you can use whatever you’re most comfortable with. I’m loyal to my pillow rollers, and when they’re not available I rag roll with whatever I can find. There’s a how-to video on this at the bottom of the article. Here’s the 40s set done with strips of paper towels. It needed to be brushed again, so don’t mind the ringlets and crazy flyaways.
And now here’s the 50s set.
Damn, I got that on the first try! I wish I could say the same for the second and third tries. We’re all learning together. You might find that this looks similar to the 40s set, however it’s rolled right up to the scalp which creates more volume all over. You can see the difference a lot better on shorter hair.
Elizabeth Taylor's shorter hair demonstrates the volume starting right from the crown, as opposed to the more bottom-heavy look of the 40s.
Again, keep in mind that your hair cut affects the final look, so you might not have those face framing curls from the pictures. And if your hair is longer like mine, the weight might keep the crown looking smooth and 40s no matter what. That doesn’t mean it won’t look good, just go with what you have and make it yours.

Busca Aumont Aubrac
August 22, 2010 Sunny and boilingWorshipful thanks to Ste. Vibrametta, small god of hot, heavy, but stout hiking boots.Note photo of pilgrim chanson. Can't sight read myself, but maybe LIbby or Marv can work it out. Photo of road; many horrible surfaces. Nevertheless today was a fine country walks, except for the unreasonable heat. Countryside is pastoral, woodsy areas are not creepy, unlike home (no "beware mountain lions and coyotes "; no ground squirrels digging sink holes underfoot). Had pleasant unintelligible (on both sides) conversation with young québécois I ran into on the path.Squirrels. On drive back from hotel to trail at St Privat, driver suddenly stopped car (full of French travellers and me). Everyone gawking at something on the side of the road (not the side with the stunning view of the gorge). I started gawking too, but only saw a squirrel. Everyone is talking delightedly in fFrench, too fast to follow. Finally I asked what was so exciting and someone said "squirrel" (something like equerelle in Fr). Was dumbfounded. Others explained that they are very shy and not often seen (those of us who've cleaned squirrel cages might wonder who cares). However, This was a Euro red squirrel and I believe they are shy because they are disappearing. Mostly domestic animals seen from trail. Beautiful cattle. Passed by perfect French woman on impossible grueling section of trail. She did not appear to have sweated at all. Pants fit perfectly and were spotless. Hair unmussed in fashionable cut. Amazing. Flea market in Aumont Aubrac today. Major traffic jam at close of day. Watched car drive over some of a vendor's stuff. Aggravation ensued.Surprising lack of frites in restaurants. Jeff crushed. Shout Out to Judi: note photo of swallow butts. Reminded of recent Attack at Boathouse Cafe (ABC). Would have left immediately but too tired.

BUSCA QB Conques
Friday/Saturday, August 27/28, 2010; Espalion to Golinhac to Conques; cooler than 42C but still too warm; better today; still sick.Happy Birthday to me and thanks to St. Jacques/Jacmo/Jacob/Iago/James/Jimmy/Great Atuin, there are birthday miracles to report:1. France received its allotted annual EU consignment of staplers and we got one! Ditto plug adapters. KB finally glutted on frites. Spoiled by catsup.Hiked from Espalion to Estaing. Should have been easy except certain pilgrims blindly followed the signs instead of the maps, which would have showed me a nice flat road, and was forced to climb what was effectively a 2mile vertical wall of red dirt with few footholds. After a few feet, realized error, but was too afraid to roll back down so had to keep going. Near death at top (guidebook: "good views all round." Idiots!). Staggered into Estaing, lovely town (see photos, apparently the town council thinks so too). Met Ian (intrepid Aussie pilgrim, bothered by no road), who could not believe I had climbed the stupid hill. Even he had wisely taken the road. We were also concerned about Ann and two German pilgrims (Erika and Trautha??) who had not yet arrived (I'm pretty slow). After being told that an empty table for 6 could not be used because we were three, we sat around. Ann staggered in about 30min later, having been suckered by the same hill. She claimed to have climbed it literally on hands and knees because of the backpack weight. The Germans turned up after a bit, also sucker punched and not impressed by the views. Taxi for me to Golinhac via bike repair truck. Couldn't walk any more.Shout out to Bob: 1) staplers are used by pilgrims to keep map pages in order, 2) you mean Hugo can turn around in your shower without the curtain sticking.Today (8/28) an "easy" walk to Conques, yet another UNESCO site and imaginary medieval village (see photo). Guidebook, which lies like a rug, said it was about13 miles. GPS showed 17.5 with a 2 mile steep downhill from St Marcel (the REAL pilgrim way). Note: ST. Marcel had very vigilant chickens. Made it, but now can only limp. Beautiful city with important Cathedral containing relics (v.important to have relics) of St. Foy, a 12 year old 3rd C (or thereabouts), typically grisly martyr: decapitated-although no explanation why unless you fork out 6Euros to see the reliquary and some other stuff.Good photo of St. Peter with cockerel from some other church.Shout-out to NOLA. During hike, dreaming of alleged 3-star hotel (standards low in France). Imagine my surprise and delight when we discovered our 3-star "upgrade" was a metal FEMA prefab without soap, towels, etc. In a campground. No restaurant. Not amused. Made up for it with good cheese and a superb melon (Charentais?) from epicerie for dinner.Shout out to Stephen Colbert: to Threatdown List add 1) mountains, 2) squatters (FR toilets).

Montgros to St. Chely
Notes from the foot sackers. Good weather, not too hot. Still coughing. Same sQuashed toe. Rained yesterday. Classic country walks today through cow fields. Luckily dry so no mud or wet cow pats. Cows d'Aubrac are a big breed here and are beautiful. And free range, as are chickens (see photo). Climbed up for several hours then back down a steep andu painful path. Fortunately I ran into Anna of Australia again so we were able to give one another some moral support. Yesterday, hiking through another cow field we ran across Bernard, a man with two burros. He was halted in the field, and if I understood him correctly he was saying that the burros would not cross a very small puddle in the field and he was stuck. Also yesterday a stile that we had to climb over (photo of Anne post-stile). Not a welcomed obstacle. Saw some pigeons. Squashed frog ( see photo).Relived re French bread. Was worried in Le Puy that we would not find any real boulangeries. No fear. There have been many along the way and beautiful bread specimens in most. KB still pretty depressed about lack of frites. Also, no staplers in France. I have yet to see soup de poisson, buto are moving out of the Massif region and into Languedoc, so perhaps the menu will begin to change. Also tired of "pilgrim breakfast.". French way to save money by feeding you yesterday's stale bread with jam for breakfast. Not enough protein for a hungry pilgrim about to stomp o'er vale and hill. Lovely church (see photo) and garden at Aubrac. Interesting murals inside inside. One referenced "ultreia" which pilgrims used to say along with a response (something like "et sus eiea") apparently Latin from Hebrew and per haps something else before that. Meaning something like moving on and moving up (the latter spiritually). French squatter toilets exist still, I'm sorry to say. Have been desperate enough to use them and have not forgotten the technique. Interesting how standards begin to deteriorate on the road. Now a stall shower that only flood the bathroom a little is a hotel high point. Dinner tonight included confit of duck. Really Good. More cheese. Another tomme, another bleu.

If you are using the fishnets to deal with cellulite pay attention to the SIZE of the diamonds. Skinny, toned legs can get away with larger diamond sizes however if you got the extra jiggle they can actually squish down your lumps and bumps and push them through, much like chicken wire! The smaller the diamond size on the fishnet the more of flatter, compressed surface you get.
* Get the seamless fishnet tights as you do not want to be adjusting a seam all day.
*Wearing a slightly darker shade of tights under your fishnets look great as well especially if you cannot find an exact match for your skintone.
Untitled Clipped Note
Look for fishnets with a high spandex content, anything with 12% and over is great for giving you the fit that you will need, as you do not want saggy stockings. The fishnets must cling to your leg, no sag at knees or ankles. The high spandex content will also help prevent snags and it will be easier to adjust the waist band by pushing it down to wear with your belt/underwear. Professional dance fishnets, like Capezio, have a very high spandex content.
*Match the fishnets to your skin tone as close as possible, please do not match the costume (no coloured fishnets ) for this look. There are various shades of nude and tan so test them out and find one that works for you.

Some other tips (from onewed.com)…
Get a good set of hot rollers. Hot rollers are key to creating loose, natural-looking curls. Wash your hair, apply some curling cream to the roots, flip your head over and blow dry upside down. Flip hair again and brush it out lightly. When your hair is dry, section off large pieces and set them in hot rollers, starting at your forehead, working your way to the sides, and finishing with the back. Rub some curling cream between your palms, remove the rollers, then finger-style to reduce frizz. “You’ll be left with soft, piece-y curls that are easy to sweep up and pin in place,” says Romero.
• Use the train track bobby pin method. “When you’re ready to create the updo, put away your comband brush. “They’re a trade secret. They don’t slip and come in colors to match your hair.” Starting at the front of your head, take a three-inch section and gently pull it back, securing with two bobby pins, criss-
• Plan ahead, and practice!
Basic 40s and 50s Curl Sets « Skirting The Issue
I love sharing my little revelations with you guys, so since I finally got two basic curl sets figured out I thought I should write a tutorial. I’m going to show you a good basic 40s set, and a basic 50s set. The difference is that the 40s set has more volume on the bottom half and generally lies smooth over the crown, where the 50s set has more volume all over. Though they seem to be so similar you could easily interchange them and hardly anybody would know the difference. Depending on your hair, one could turn out looking like the other.
I’m going to show you the setting patterns for rollers since most of us are not quite skilled enough in the art of pin curls, but if you are they’re easily converted. You’ll have more and smaller curls but the directions will be the same. These are great beginner sets; they don’t involve a bunch of different layers going in opposite directions, and with practice they can easily be done in 10-15 minutes. For the sake of simplicity, I’ll be showing you my own hair after being set by the diagrams I’ve made (though I take no credit for designing them. Chances are a bazillion people before me have done the same ones). The celebrities hair have of course not been done using my diagrams, but it was probably set in a similar way and they do a better job of showing the difference between the decades, and an idealized look at how these should turn out. Now don’t forget your end papers and setting lotion! Ready?
Let’s start with the 40s set.
Front
Back
Veronica Lake, who's hair is even longer than my own.
Lauren Bacall, with a more traditional length.
This set is rolled only up to your ears, excepting the bang area which goes right up to the scalp, so the long curl will help frame your face. All curls will be going down, but you can tilt the ones in front towards your face if you like. You can do this in as many rows as you like, but for normal to fine hair and using rollers one can easily be enough. I prefer to have the curls done in an even row(s) all around the head, so that when you brush it out it creates nice uniform waves, but as every day 40s hair tends to be a little fluffier this isn’t so necessary. This is in fact an excellent set to try doing with pin curls.
You probably won't need this.
When your hair is set, it might actually look pretty cute. If you come out with kinks in the top, you can use a flat iron or curling iron to smooth it out. Keep in mind that sponge rollers with their plastic clasps do tend to create kinks more than others, so I’m not partial to them. But you can use whatever you’re most comfortable with. I’m loyal to my pillow rollers, and when they’re not available I rag roll with whatever I can find. There’s a how-to video on this at the bottom of the article. Here’s the 40s set done with strips of paper towels. It needed to be brushed again, so don’t mind the ringlets and crazy flyaways.
And now here’s the 50s set.
Damn, I got that on the first try! I wish I could say the same for the second and third tries. We’re all learning together. You might find that this looks similar to the 40s set, however it’s rolled right up to the scalp which creates more volume all over. You can see the difference a lot better on shorter hair.
Elizabeth Taylor's shorter hair demonstrates the volume starting right from the crown, as opposed to the more bottom-heavy look of the 40s.
Again, keep in mind that your hair cut affects the final look, so you might not have those face framing curls from the pictures. And if your hair is longer like mine, the weight might keep the crown looking smooth and 40s no matter what. That doesn’t mean it won’t look good, just go with what you have and make it yours.
My crappy drawing is a rough guide to how the curls should be positioned. Hopefully it's not TOO crappy to understand.
As you can see, there are about 4 curls going down the center of the head; the front one going forward and the others going back. The second one can go towards what will be the thick side of your part, but I find it difficult for some reason and unnecessary. Then you’ll have two on each side going down.
The easiest way to go about this is to start with your hair parted deeply to whichever side you prefer, about over the arch of your eyebrow. Grab the section above your ear on the thin side and curl it down, or angled slightly forward if you like. Then grab a section of similar size behind it and curl it down as well, trying to get it to the same level. Then you can do the two curls on the top of your head, separated by another symmetrical parting over the other eyebrow. Curl the other side to match the first, and finally separate what’s left in the back into two curls going downward. Like before, if you have more hair or you’re using smaller rollers or pin curls, you’ll have more curls but they’ll still be going the same way. When you’re done you’ll look incredibly silly. Cover with a Rosie bandanna.
Make sure to brush this one out slowly and against your hand to keep it as smooth as possible, and shape the curls so they blend together. Hopefully you come out with a winner!
Like this!
I hope I explained these well enough. If you have any questions let me know. I’m going to finalize this by showing you a video that explains rag rolling quite well, since it’s incredibly useful if you don’t have any rollers handy and it’s something a lot of people have trouble with. It’s not half as hard as you might think. Good luck, guys!

Skirting The Issue
Now, the most important thing to create a beehive is a rat, or hair filler. I mean, you don’t NEED one, but it’s a hell of a lot harder without it, and you’re more likely to end up with a rat’s nest instead. I use a long narrow rat for bumper bangs, so I curved it into a U shape with the middle facing up for this look. You can also just use a round or ball-y shaped one. A lot of people put cotton or fake/real hair into some pantyhose or a hair net for this. Bumpits are crap btw. Put your rat on the crown of your head or slightly higher in case of sagging or just to make it all the more epic. Pin it in place. Then bit by bit, take the hair from the top of your head and tease the living shit out of it, and pin it over the rat. Do this until you look like Dolly Parton. The last bit that will cover the surface should be left smooth. Then you just need pomade and a light touch with a comb to smooth the top out, and lot of hairspray. I slept in mine and it somehow actually survived, only shrinking a little. Which was perfect as I was feeling lazy and liked it and wanted to leave it up for work. Anyway, you can leave the bottom in beachy waves like Bridgette Bardot, put it in a ponytail, or for more of a Hairspray or formal look, twist it up into a French twist and tuck the ends in.
Holy crap that was easy.
This is not me, but I do feel this fabulous.

Montgros to St. Chely
Notes from the foot sackers. Good weather, not too hot. Still coughing. Same sQuashed toe. Rained yesterday. Classic country walks today through cow fields. Luckily dry so no mud or wet cow pats. Cows d'Aubrac are a big breed here and are beautiful. And free range, as are chickens (see photo). Climbed up for several hours then back down a steep andu painful path. Fortunately I ran into Anna of Australia again so we were able to give one another some moral support. Yesterday, hiking through another cow field we ran across Bernard, a man with two burros. He was halted in the field, and if I understood him correctly he was saying that the burros would not cross a very small puddle in the field and he was stuck. Also yesterday a stile that we had to climb over (photo of Anne post-stile). Not a welcomed obstacle. Saw some pigeons. Squashed frog ( see photo).Relived re French bread. Was worried in Le Puy that we would not find any real boulangeries. No fear. There have been many along the way and beautiful bread specimens in most. KB still pretty depressed about lack of frites. Also, no staplers in France. I have yet to see soup de poisson, buto are moving out of the Massif region and into Languedoc, so perhaps the menu will begin to change. Also tired of "pilgrim breakfast.". French way to save money by feeding you yesterday's stale bread with jam for breakfast. Not enough protein for a hungry pilgrim about to stomp o'er vale and hill. Lovely church (see photo) and garden at Aubrac. Interesting murals inside inside. One referenced "ultreia" which pilgrims used to say along with a response (something like "et sus eiea") apparently Latin from Hebrew and per haps something else before that. Meaning something like moving on and moving up (the latter spiritually). French squatter toilets exist still, I'm sorry to say. Have been desperate enough to use them and have not forgotten the technique. Interesting how standards begin to deteriorate on the road. Now a stall shower that only flood the bathroom a little is a hotel high point. Dinner tonight included confit of duck. Really Good. More cheese. Another tomme, another bleu.
