    Answer Angel: No-melt lipstick? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Dear Answer Angel Ellen: I never received a reply from my question 2+ years ago and my wife still wants to know if you are aware of lipsticks that do not melt in a hot car. Dear Mike: That’s a long time to wait for an answer. I confess that I have never left a lipstick in a hot car, but I strongly advise against it. It shakes me to the core when I think of the gooey mess of a melted lipstick—especially if your wife left her entire purse, with the lipstick inside, in the parked car on a hot day.

    Answer Angel: Hosiery making a comeback? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Dear Answer Angel Ellen: Is hosiery — sheer stockings, regular pantyhose in neutral beige, nude or black — making a comeback? I hope the bare-leg trend is over! Dear Marina: The bare-leg trend is not “over” but sheer hosiery is making a comeback. Gone for good are the large and varied options at department stores of the past. But, you still will find limited stock there and in big box and drug stores. If for any reason — including veins and other imperfections — you choose to wear sheer or semi-

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Dear Answer Angel Ellen: At a recent baseball game, I saw men wearing shorts with pockets so bulging — cell phone, overstuffed wallet — that the weight of the stuff was dragging their pants down so much that you could see their naked stomachs and more. Not a pretty sight! This wasn’t just one guy but many, many! Dear Melody: I’d be a hypocrite to point fingers at these droopy drawer fellows since I don’t pack light — even for a trip to the drugstore! My purse often looks like I’m heading for a w

    Answer Angel: Hair accessories (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Dear Answer Angel Ellen: I’m in search of a hair accessory that on hot days will help me manage the unwelcome result of summer weather on my shoulder-length hair. After trying various clips, scrunchies and pins, the one I have found that works best to keep my hair in check is a headband that keeps my frizz away from my face and sort of under control. My question is whether I look like I am trying to return to my teens when I am a 44-year-old professional. Dear Kathryn: Headbands of all kinds are

    Answer Angel: Gift ideas for 97th birthday? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Dear Answer Angel Ellen: I’m a faithful reader of your column over the years, but this is the first time I have asked for your help. My partner and I are invited to a birthday celebration for a friend who is turning 97! He’s still vigorous, charming and delightful company. (We all should be blessed with such a good long life.) Not surprisingly, the invitation specifies, “No gifts, please. Your company is the best gift of all!” Nonetheless, we would love to give him something to mark his long and
