What makeup are you wearing today?
I put on makeup today as an incentive to get out of the house, but it didn't work. The look I came up with was a silvery eye with a green crease and a pale pink lip. For some reason, FL isn't letting me add my picture of my work to this post:( oh well. If any onf you are interested, i made a... -

Eye shadow
I third Lareine and Fortworthgal about Urban Decay's naked palette. It's such a great product, I can't recommend it enough for those into neutrals. If you're looking for quality drugstore eyeshadow, I personally like Wet n Wild's vanity palette (the neutral one). It's shockingly high quality at... -

The White Stripe: a hair dilemma
For some reason my visual of this guy with this hair cut is him working at Kinko's in a pinstriped suit. -

The White Stripe: a hair dilemma
C-dot, thanks! My bangs were really short, so I'm just happy they're now past that awkward stage of growing out. Good luck on your bleach hunt! -

You are too sweet. I just think I look like how I felt at the time-melty. It's very hot here in NYC! -

The White Stripe: a hair dilemma
This is my own streak that i fondly call White Lightning! (not really) I dye my hair black, so when i initially bleached this in, I had SO much damage. This was because i wasn't using the correct products, and used these wrong ones over and over again in a span of 2 days. I DON'T RECOMMEND... -

The Middy Thread
C-dot, thank goodness for your tutorial! It was actually what lead me to join the FL in the first place. ANYHOO-- Those extra 2 pony tails in the back works like a charm to get the right amount of layering in. Welcome back! -

Vintage-Inspired clothing lines
Hi Zombi! I've bought two dresses from Tara Starlet- the homefront dancing dress and the Saddle Stitch dress (which i don't think they still offer)- in recent years and i definitely feel like they're over priced for what you get. The saddle stitch dress looked ok on, but had this zipper in it...- User25159

High Waisted Pants & Jeans!
If I can find the darn battery charger for my camera, I sure will! Just remembered about this pair of jeans I have from Stop Staring: http://www.getgoretro.com/StopStaring/Denim_Cherry_Jeans.htm The fit is absolutely fantastic, but that silly cherry patch doesn't make them very versatile.- User25159

Dita Von Teese
Did/do you have problems with the buttons? I mean, when you close them, does the fabric gap? They styled it into a keyhole neckline but i'm wondering if that's because the fit is poor. I'd rather not spend $190 + $65 int'l shipping for something i'm going to have to sew up myself! ...even...- User25159

the leopard can never change its spots
I'm so the same way! And then when i find a leopard print that i'm in love with, i'ts usually on a garment that is either WAY beyond my budget (or generally overpriced) or isn't very attractive. However, the new Lucy B. Tigress collection (not sure why it's called that) has both AMAZING...- User25159

High Waisted Pants & Jeans!
Holy smokes ladies- I haven't been on here and ages and come back to find this amazing post! So psyched to know about Freddie's jeans! I recently got the Bernie Dexter dungarees and i feel like the crotch fits weird (though her siren capris are fantastic). They were comfortable enough, so i...- User25159

How often do you wash your hair? (guys & gals)
This rings true for me too! I'd wash my hair in the AM, and by the PM it would be crazy oily. However, when i started doing "vintage" styles on my hair, i didn't want to wash out those waves that took so long to create, so I stopped washing it every day, and my hair is so much happier. I can... -

Am i vintage hair-disadvantaged because i have bangs?
Gah! This thread further makes me want to cut short bangs! But I have a really damaged bleached streak in the front a la Miss hayworth: so i know it will be a disaster if i attempt to do this. Paula- if you decide to grow out your bangs and then miss them, you can always create a faux bang... -

Considering going for the chop??
I agree with you BD! Baby butterfly, at least if you cut your hair to a shorter length before going ALL the way to a pixie-type cut, if you don't like it you will go through a less-awkward growing out phase. I've been completely shaved-bald before and had a few awkward stages, none of them... -

Refills for Vintage Compacts
Do you gals think that a compacted cosmetic could be broken, then mashed up with alcohol and then put into a vintage compact? For example, a pressed powder foundation? And what about a powder foundation like Bare Minerals? Do you think it would change the properties of it at all to press it... -

Finding the Palest Foundation
Tish and Scruff- I know how you guys feel too. In addition to the rest of the world, I'd always get "Why don't you get some sun for once" from my own mother who used to basically live in a tanning bed. (She doesn't anymore, but she has a leather face now and I think about that every time i put...
