    Time Warp Wives

    That would be great! I HAVE seen the program - and I adored it. The ladies all look so lovely and I DO admire their dedication. Some people need to realize that anything on film can be edited and manipulated so that it portrays you differently. Watch it if you get the opportunity :)

    Oh the Stigma with wearing seamed fully fashioned stockings!

    Show us your vintage hats!

    Let's see if this works. Here are a few of the hats I just got. Some of them are misshapen (most of them in fact). I am SO in love with the black and lt. pink ones. The lace on the pink one is SO torn - I think from catching on the beading. Would I need to find a milliner to fix these??

    This might be the most beautiful hat I've ever seen! confession: I am a hat virgin. I just bought a few vintage hats at a garage sale - BEAUTIFUL - but I have no clue how to attach them to my head. Plus after years in the box they are a little misshapen. Anyone know much about how to...
