Ladies in the Los Angeles/California area--Please come in!
Bartenders, if you have to move this to the events area I understand, but this is specifically for the ladies, which is why I posted in The Powder Room. I know we have many threads here about etiquette, charm, and finishing schools, and many of us have expressed interest in them. I'm...- Emer

High waist pants for us shorties **Found some!!
What if you're not fortunate enough to have the body that allows you to wear high waisted pants? I'm short through and through and the one time I wore something high waisted, it looked terrible! Case in point: I was told the hemline needed to be shorter for this particular skirt, but it...- Emer

WWII-era dress for sale: $45 OBO
Unfortunately, this is a bit too snug for me (thought I was thinner than I am). :cry: But my loss is your gain! This is a gorgeous rayon WWII-era dress (feels like silk). It has pink polka dots over a chocolatey brown background. 3 decorative buttons down bodice (I think these are Lucite)...- Emer

Fountain pen ink?
Sorry bartenders if this should go elsewhere! Couldn't really find a place where it should land... I've inherited a gorgeous fountain pen set. It's one pen with 7 different nibs. It's an Osmiroid (and I suppose it's techinically a calligraphy set). It has a refillable ink well and it says to...- Emer

What would you wear to a theme park?
Our anniversary is this weekend and we're going to Universal Studios in L.A. to celebrate! I want to put together some sort of vintage look, but there will be a lot of walking, a lot of rides, and the (good) possibility of rain. I have only one set of vintage-style jeans, which I can definitely...- Emer

Ladies who use Dream Matte Mousse foundation
Have you had an issue with their colors? I bought some yesterday in the lightest color they have (the Light Ivory 0) and when I used it today, it made me look yellow! :rage: Normally I always buy the light ivory color in foundation, but this was just odd. I've always thought ivory was more... -
Taking measurements for Vintage Clothing
Um, how do you meassure yourself for vintage clothes? Google is only bringing up what the meassurements back then used to be in relation to what they are now--but not how to actually meassure myself. So far I've been okay because I'm buying repro clothes, but now I'm ready to venture into real...- Emer

How to pack it all?
Ladies, I am in need of some serious advice! How on Earth did women pack all of their odds and ends into a suitcase?! I look at some vinatge pieces (read: stare longingly) and can't help but notice that they weren't very deep. Did women travel with only one pair of shoes (the ones on their...- Emer

What do you use on your curls?
My hair is pretty thick and heavy and my curls tend to fall out after a few hours. Is setting lotion apporpriate if your using a curling iron or hot rollers? Hair spray seems to make my hair too "crunchy" or my hair seperates. I'd love to find something that defines them, makes them smooth, and... -
What vinatge look should I wear...
...for a military promotion? My husband is picking up and it's a big stepping stone since he officially becomes a senior enlisted. I'll be pinning on his new rank and I want to make sure I look swank. Our family will be there as well as his fellow Marines, commanding officers, and the whole...- Emer
