Turns out, I love this show so much, I want to be on it...
Hi all... I love this show for so many reasons, but I have a soft spot for the clothes. When my grandmother passed away this past April, I was given a blue suit dress, hat and gloves that she wore to my parent's wedding in 1969. I put...
I thought I would drop in and ask if you ladies were going to make vintage valentines for your other halves...
Also, I am dreaming up a romantic vintage Valentine's Day excursion and was looking for ideas in the Southern California area. Any ideas for what sort of vintage-spirited dates I...
Agreed. Giving something new life is always ok, but I feel so sick reading all of these people's blogs where they say that they found vintage pumps with a good heel and decided to glue and sew glitter and sequins on them. I wonder how many pairs of beautiful 30s pumps are now hidden by glitz?
Thank you! I am not one to usually just throw something together, especially when it comes to anything vintage. I try to replicate or find the actual pieces, if possible. The link may just work!
The Wizard of Oz is an amazing film and I have grown up watching it for so many years taking it for granted that this film was made in 1939.
A recent vintage event announcement has reminded me of this, and I have decided to make a pair. (eek!) I did some research and found a blueprint for...
My husband got into vintage shaving techniques a while back and he loves it. He tried to convince me to use a brush, etc. for the longest time, and finally we found a shave brush with a long handle at The Art of Shaving that is designed for women to shave their legs. I love it! I am certain...
Goodness, that's beautiful! I regret that my husband and I did not have a vintage wedding, as we got married before we truly fell in love with vintage clothes and prior to starting our collection of fashions. I love this dress and head piece.
Maybe for our 5 year anniversary we will do a...
I was surprised the first time it happened. Especially because it was when I was walking away from a cash register and had forgotten an item and the kid behind the counter (who looked no more than 3 or 4 years younger than I) called me ma'am.
It was just after I had gotten married though...
Yes...really.
As most of you seem to, my husband and I always get comments on how nice we look "all dressed up." Most people ask if we are going somewhere, but my husband faithfully replies, "No, no occasion, really. This is just how we dress all the time." To which the obligatory, "Really?"...
Hello Ladies!
I do hope that there hasn't been too much discussion of this in previous threads, but I was hoping for suggestions on storing vintage hats. I have two rather deep, wide brimmed tilt hats (both with feathers), and a couple little black 50s ones and not a whole lot of closet...
Hello Dolls!
Just a quick "Hi there" and "Hello!" to all of you. I am fairly new here, though I have been a lurker for the past few months. I love late 30s, 40s and early 50s fashions and hair. Love old radios, cars, and clothes. WWII era is probably my favorite time to portray, as it has a...
