    New Hairstyling book

    I know this thread is a bit old, and that I don't post on here very much! However, I just wanted to let you know that I run an online shop based in the UK and I have this book in stock. I post stuff the day after I receive your order and send by 1st class recorded. It's £17. ;) (but yes, I...

    Help me accessorize this Outfit!

    Well, black goes with everything, but if you can find a pair of shoes in the same shade of red, that would be amazing. Or even - white shoes with a red accent on them. Ooooh! Or just white shoes? Then again, it depends how else you plan to accessorise it. Hat, glove, coat, jewellery? (perhaps...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Hello ladies! Glad you like the dress, Hannah, it looks great! Would you be ok with a pic going on the Happy Customers page? (I'm putting one together, y'see!). About the measurements: The size chart is the one that Bettie Page Clothing sent me, but if you want me to double-check the dress...

    Someone must know - what is this film?

    I think it was around Christmas time, I saw a bit of a film on TCM that has got me flummoxed. It looked a bit like "The Women", but I don't think it was as it was all in colour. There were lots of women getting divorced and were staying in a rustic hotel together, but some of them were going to...

    £30million remake of Brideshead Revisited this year!

    I love the original adaptation of it, and I am scratching my head as to why they would want to make another version. Anthony Andrews was so brilliant as Sebastian! And what could improve on the naked sunbathing? ;) Castle Howard was a perfect setting as well. *goes off to have a cry* Oh...

    Remix Shoes!!

    I'm going to be stocking Remix shoes in my online shop, which is based in the UK (seems impossible to find any other online shops selling them!). just wondering what styles to get, though. As my shop sells mainly 50s style stuff as well as a bit of 40s, I think the Babydoll pumps would be the...

    Daywear

    It is very nice! I'll have the L and XL in green again by the end of the week too. ;) It's extremely well-made and good quality - 100% wool, except for the little bit of lining inside it at the middle. The sizing is perhaps a bit odd, but as long as you know your measurements and have checked...

    Ladies with cigarettes

    These pics are making me miss smoking! I had to give it up as an emergency because 4 of my teeth have become loose. As smoking is the biggest cause of gum disease, my dentist told me that if I didn't give up ASAP I'd lose my teeth. :eusa_doh: The very annoying thing is that I have LOADS of...

    Setting Pattern Central

    Retromom, that set looks fantastic! Might have a go at doing those diagonal lines.

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Oh pants! I just posted a "hello, I'm new" post in someplace called The Observation Bar. Is that just for the fellas? I'm getting confused... anyway, here I am. Hello!

    Daywear

    Yes, check out my shop! ;) The Bettie Page Clothing "Annette" dress is popular with people looking for something vintage-style to wear to work. I'm also getting in some really nice pencil skirts that they make. I've got some very nice cigarette pants, erm... lots of nice stuff! But also, yes...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hello, I joined yesterday. I've liked vintage style for many years. Thing is, I'm mainly into 50s and early 60s, so I shan't interject too often. I've often wondered if I should join this forum or not, but the other day I was looking through the stats on my website and saw that someone had...
