Hi,

Thanks for your posts everyone :-).

Satchi - I opted for pink and silver although I was sorely tempted to try the smoky eyed look but as I haven't tried it on myself previously, I was worried I'd mess up and end up looking like a racoon :$. Hence, I decided it was best to stick with something that I had prior practise with. However, I am definitely going to start experimenting with new kinds of makeup! Well I wore the black dress for the pre-wedding party and am planning on the golden dress for the wedding which is tomorrow :-)

Buttercup - thanks a lot for the link! It's definitely interesting and I would love to get some tips for tomorrow's wedding party.

Algaequeen, Thanks for your suggestions too :-)

Sneaks, thanks for responding to my post. Appreciate your helpful tips :-).

Hi Jepsonclough,

Thanks for your response as well. Helpful tips...the dress is a gown and the bottom is an umbrella flare, not clingy at all! Yeah I know about either accentuating one of the two, the eyes or the lips but I am not sure whether that is actually followed nowadays? Hmmm, not sure about the lighting I am afraid. And no time to pop into shops either as the party is just tomorrow - it is a pre-wedding party for the same person whose wedding is on Thursday.

Hi Satchi,

Thanks for responding to my post - good idea, will check out youtube. Well yes, color of hair and eyes will definitely need to be taken in account...(brunette with pale skin). Well, there is this party tomorrow that I am planning on wearing a black dress to and a wedding on Thursday for which my choice is a golden dress. Hmmm. perhaps I may get some tips for makeup for golden dress from youtube as well? Will check it out too. Thanks Satchi :-)

Hello Ladies,

Mods, I know this is seriously off-topic but I would really appreciate it if you would kindly retain this thread in the chosen section :-x

Satchi, you've kind of inspired me and a few others to actually pursue this topic so thanks for that (up)

URGENT! What color makeup would go with black (dress)? What is the current fashion - light pink and silver combined (light makeup obviously), or maroon and silver with black liner and mascara (heavily made up look)?? Would appreciate quick responses/opinions as I need to make up my mind by tomorrow evening and am unable to decide between the two! HELP!

While we're at it, what color makeup would go with a golden dress? Any tips/advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated :-)

Hi Lostinoz,

I had a very negative experience with one of the journals that I had submitted my paper to. The paper was peer reviewed and then the editor asked to me to do some very minor corrections which included only a few typos. After I resubmitted the paper, it did not have to be peer reviewed again as the revisions did not involve any editing, merely correcting the typos. I was positive that they were going to accept my paper because they had to objection to its quality or content. they kept me hanging for almost six months after which a new editor replaced the earlier one and this new editor straight away rejected my paper. To be honest, I was quite shocked by this unexpected response because I was expecting that as the revisions had been done, they would go ahead with publishing the paper. Obviously, I had assumed they wouldn't have asked me to do those revisions if they were not interested in my paper in the first place. I suspect the new editor was the one made this decision as the peer reviewers did not appear to have any objections. Whatever it is, in my experience, I would still not be completely positive about the paper being accepted even after revisions however minor, although this may not be the case for all journals.

However, I sincerely hope that your paper will be published by this journal :-)

Good luck! (up)

Thanks guys! You all rock :-). This forum's wonderful and a great source of stress reliever

Thank you Natassia for the 2nd article :-).

Just did and sent you a PM Florence :-)

Oh dear...well hoping that someone may be able to get hold of them as I haven't received any article yet and this is so important! I am also currently out of the country which makes this more difficult :-(

Thanks so much Natassia! Ok, I'll PM you my email id...
