Black salons still do wet sets, which are the foundation of many vintage styles. Finger waves and pin curls are still popular there as most of the clientele rely on these methods to upkeep their styles.
I was always under the impression that "W.I." stood for "West Indies" ( I know it's Wisconsin when it's "WI"). I won this hat from an overseas seller and I am still waiting on it, but the milliner's address is on the tag and it indicated it is located at 19 Berkeley Street W.I., but it comes up...
I don't drink alcoholic beverages so my fall drinks are hot chocolate with whipped cream or Earl Grey tea..or any black tea really with honorable mention going to English Breakfast and Irish Breakfast mixed with cream and sugar.
Yes, I love the idea. The original pin. The only thing that would make it better is if the actual name "The Fedora Lounge" could be imprinted on it for the benefit of the lounge and that would most likely require the pin to be a bit bigger in size.
Not to derail the thread but when I think of Erie, I still recall that horrible case about a decade ago when the pizza delivery guy was robbed and they put a bomb around his neck and forced him to rob a bank under the threat of the bomb exploding and it eventually it did. It was a most unusual...
Yes craigslist has a personals section but the category you would go to is "Missed connections". Your local newspaper may even have one. You may even run into them again when you're out and about so here's hoping you get lucky. I don't think it's too much effort to post an ad on there. It would...
Question:
What do you ladies wear underneath sheer blouses? I have been finding a lot of beautiful blouses lately but unfortunately they are sheer. I'm thinking of maybe just a one piece shapewear underneath but just wanted to seek out any alternatives.
I like the idea of a pin. I would definitely wear it and an eye catching pin would possibly mean more exposure and traffic for the lounge.
Was their final destination Erie or was that a layover for them? Craigslist has a missed connections section you can post ads looking for people if indeed...
Does anyone remember G.L.O.W? Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling? They just made a movie about the characters. I didn't know it then but nearly all of them were from the adult entertainment industry.
I'm surprised this made news. Dress codes are nothing new and it looks like the dress code that many...
Not as brave as you think, lol. Long hair does nothing for me. I look much better and feel much more confident in myself with short chin to shoulder length hair. That it goes well with the vintage hats is a bonus.
Sorry to hear this. I never met him but I do believe I remember seeing his avatar when he posted. From that picture posted in the first post of this thread you can tell that he was relatively young. I hope his life circumstances (job loss) didn't add any stress that led to his death. Again, I am...
A man after my own heart! These are my reasons for loving winter as well. I get to wear my wools and cashmeres with my 20s and 30s cloches and the annoying catcallers are usually hunkered down in their lairs! lol
My hair was mid back and I cut my hair specifically to accommodate my slouch hats and cloches. I have seen pictures of women with longer than average hair that was finger waved and the excess hair was pinned up at the nape. 1940s tilt hats that sit perched atop the head would be your best bet in...
