Quandary: I am always appalled when I see people at the mall getting their teeth whitened. Am I being too old-fashioned or is that just downright un-classy?

Solution: When it comes to PDW (public displays of whitening), Post is pragmatic. "There's no etiquette rule on whether to do it or not, but if you're willing to sit there and have the rest of the mall stare at you, then you can go for it."

Next: How much fragrance is too much?

SEE NEXT PAGE: Quandary: I don't want to be one of those girls who everyone thinks wears too much perfume but I love fragrance! How much is too much? Is there some sort of guideline?

@ JustIris30...just to let you know that your friend is horribly wrong,one of the first and essential things to know about applying any perfume is NEVER to rub the place where the perfume was spritzed on! Never ever because it destroys the molecules of the perfume itself and it will not be the same smell nor intensity it should and could be! That is a complete no-no! Inform yourself and your friend!
