Just recently for my husband's Christmas party I made myself a party dress. I had 11 days to work on it and finished it in 9. Lol. It's from a 1962 dress pattern from Simplicity #4360. Fabric is a flocked taffeta in colbalt blue.
I have 8 tattoo's so far. My hope and plan, when I have enough money is to have a whole sleeve or half sleeve of tattoo's on my arm. I am not into rockabilly music or anything like that, just like the look is all. I am self employed in a beauty salon, so it doesn't interfere with my job. My...
Everyone's hair looks just lovely! Here's my attempt yesterday with twisting my hair and pinning it back. Awful cell phone pic.
My wedding hair-
My normal hair-
Last night I tried a wet set with pin curls, it came out WAY too FLUFFY!! And I mean FLUFFY!! :eek: I will...
Talented!!
Trickeraton, you daughter is just beautiful! and talented! I wish I had looked like that at 16. She looks like she will grow up to be a fine lady. :)
Hi ladies, question-
will the woman at the MAC counter help you with a red color that is best for you, or just sell you whatever?? I'm terrible with finding the right color, so I just don't wear it, and I feel like I'm missing out.:(
For some reason I think lipstick looks terrible on me, so I never wear it. It doesn't matter what color it is. I am so envious of the ladies that just seem to find the best color for them.:p
Last spring my husband's family put his grandmother (my mother in law's mother) into a nursing home. She was living in one of her 2 daughters houses, and hadn't stayed in her own home in a few years. She fell on a few occasions, and that was the last straw to the girls. She is 82 and of sound...
My husband and I just got married on Sept. 8th. We had a "Casablanca" themed wedding. Here's some pics. This is my attempt at Veronica Lake hair. It was very humid that day, I am surprised it stayed in place! I beaded about 30 lampshades to look like the lamps in Rick's Cafe. Our wedding...
I believe she was a size 14 or 16 in vintage wear, which in todays standards put's her around a size 8 or 10. I am normaly a size 5 but in vintage I wear a size 12.
Got mine the other day. Love the bit about suit armholes. My fiance is looking for a new suit and I will just have to tag along and make him lift his arm with every suit. lol. I was thinking about leaving out my Classic Style magazines at our vintage inspired (lounge/bar) wedding, but I don't...
Shantung and Dupioni
Hi ladies, I was tinkering with the idea of making a dress for the dancing fun part of my wedding reception (can't kick up my heels in my wedding dress). My question is with shantung and dupioni fabrics, which way looks best when it comes to the "slubs" in the fabric...
I think about that all the time! Let's buy up some land and make our own "golden era" housing development. Forget the cookie cutter homes of today, we'll have wonderful nostalgic homes and cars on our streets. Some developments have strict rules, we'll have them too, everything in your yard...
WOW
I have always liked Christina, but I love this look the best. She is very talented, has a real voice. Love the video, love her style, it's edgy vintage/retro. Love it!!!
Love the kitty's!! Mina was beautiful too. I wish I could have cats but my fiance is terribly allergic!! He is allergic to dogs also, but not as much, he loves Shakespeare too much to care.
