AP Literature: Vampire Stories in modern movies or books?

Q. The essentials of a vampire story include:
- an older figure representing corrupt, outworn values
- a young, preferably virginal female; a stripping away of her youth, energy, virtue
- a continuance of the life force of the old male
- the death or destruction of the young woman.

Any modern movies/books that would fit the genre of a Vampire story?? (The movie/book does not need to be about vampires.)

A. I'd say the Anne Rice books.
An older figure representing corrupt values could be Lestat. Claudia could be the girl stripping away her youth or she could be the death of a young woman. Louis could be the continuance of a life force. I could definitely write an essay with that :) A movie was made about the book. Interview With The Vampire and Queen of the Damned. IWTV is one of my favorite movies :) Good luck!

How to wear leggings?
Q. Well i like wearing leggings as much as many girls do buuut there is just one thing. My down there makes a v shape when i wear leggings no matter what kind of underwear i'm wearing! Why does this happen and what can i do so it wont be so obvious or draw attention from the public, thanks!

A. The solution is to stop wearing underwear, and be natural! Ignore those people who tell you leggings shouldn't be worn on their own. They are dinosaurs.

In modern fashion it's perfectly OK to use leggings on their own. Of course, there are a few backward and conservative folks who still get shocked by that, but the fact is, leggings make great pants -- they are comfortable, stylish and give a great figure-hugging look. They make you look sporty, modern and fit.

The v-shape you describe is called a cameltoe, and it really isn't a problem! Most guys find it really attractive, and only prudes worry about it.

Leggings are best worn without underwear at all to avoid visible panty lines and for maximum comfort. They are easily washed so they make a great combination of underwear and outwear in one -- saving you laundry and being extremely comfortable at the same time.

Is it WRONG for a GUY to become a fashion designer?

How can i be preppier?
Q. Okay look, i have been searching for the real me for a long long time and i finally realized that i am preppy, the only thing is I am sort of new at it and i really want advice, please dont answer if you are just going to tell me off or ask me why i need your help i just want it, ok?
I already go to a prep school and I am am a competitive cheerleader too

A. The preppy look is very classy. Think of cable knit sweaters plaid, argyle, etc.

Hair:

Have it straight, wavy, or scrunched. These are the main looks you see on those store bags.

To straighten it, either use a straightener and run it through your hair. Or, you can blow out.

To blow it out, you need: Smoothing milk, a round brush with multi-bristles, a blow drier over 1800 watts, shine spray, volume spray, and styling cream. Apply styling cream to damp hair. Spray volume spray on just the roots of the top of your head. Run your fingers through while drying on cool. Then, wrap your hair up. Take down layer by layer. Dry the ends while spinning the brush at the ends to straighten them. After that, run the brush through the hair while drying. (Facing the floor to prevent frizz.) Do this to all your layers. After that, finsih with shine spray. (Lightly mist or it'll look all greasy.) If some of the ends of your hair curl out slightly redo the ends by using the round brush again. If you have flyaway,s apply smoothing milk to it.

Waves:

You can use a curling iron to create waves or use a curling moose and let your hair air dry.

Scrunching:

Use a leave in conditioner curling moose and put it in a bun to air dry, then the next day take it down. (Don't do this if it's your first time. You might do it wrong and have no time to fix your hair in the morning.)

OR

Use spray gel and scrunch your hair by crumbling your hair (Like crumbling a piece of paper) upwards, and keep doing it till it air days.

Makeup:

They go for the natural look. Use foundation/tinted moisturizer, a blemish stick, and blush to top it off. (Mascara and eyeliner is optional.)The phrase 'Less if more' is totally correct.

Shoes

Most of them where flip flops or flats. For flip flops, any is cute! For flats, aim for the black ones with a cute little bow on them. (Payless) Or if it's winter, buy some uggs or any sort of boot similar to them.

Clothes

Well, if you want 'preppy' like my school does it, here are some classic looks.

Henly+Tank/Cami+Denim skirt+flip flops
V neck sweater+Polo+skirt
Outwear vest+Shirt+jeans
Tank/cami+Faux Fur Outwear+boots
Polo+denim/matching skirt
Open zip hoodie+polo+matching skirt
Jumper Dress+flipflops

Attitude

They are not snobby. They like to excel and go above and beyond according to anything they do. Sports, education, you name it. They will raise their hand if they know the answer, complete their homework, be polite (no cussing), and be nice to everyone. Smile. They aren't ditsy. Some preppy sports are swimming, tennis, football, gold, and lacrosse. Most don't slouch. Classic good girl.

Jewelery

I don't know about earrings sorry. Pearls are the best. Layer them or have one strand that fits perfectly around your neck. If you can, buy one with a little bow. Same thing with the bracelets. Pearls are good, but so are bangles. For the bangles wear one or two on the same arm at your wrist.

Bags

Designer bags are good. Try buying a tote. Just wear it like you would normally wear a purse.

Try some of these stores:

American Eagle ae.com
(Check out thier outfits for examples)
Abercrombie
Abercrombie and Fitch
Hollister
Aeropostale (For basic pieces)
J Crew
Old Navy
Department Stores
Etc.
