    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    There are always those websites that have the vintage reproduction shoes that unfortunetly cost close to $150 a pair but, i 've found that keds has some nice ones. The Walking Company suprisingly had a pair that resembled 1940s wedgies and were probably very comfortable.

The dance is on June 5 (coming up!) and I"ve been busy making...

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    My family has had a "victory garden" since I was three! Over the years we've grown lettuce, corn, beans, carrots, snap peas, beets, tomatoes, raspberries, and strawberries. I look forward to one of my own when I get my own house.

    What is appropriate to wear for a presentation?

    I'm going to do a presentation to conclude my senior year in high school that is based on a research project that I've done. I will be presenting this to a board of three community members.

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    Hi, my name's Melissa. I joined a couple days ago after awhile of just reading the threads for advice. My favorite eras are the '40s and the '50s. I was inspired to dress vintage because of my interest in WWII and rockabilly music. On Valentine's day when I was 16 I thought I'd dress up and be...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    P.S. Has anyone seen the film version of Charles Dicken's "Great Expectations" from 1940? I missed it on TCM and wondered if it was worth my time.

    Keira Knightley's Green Dress My mother is going to make a replica of Keira's lovely green dress from the movie "Atonement" for my prom and I was wondering how I should accessorize for this late Thirties-early Forties dress. In the movie she wore a diamond pin in her hair and she had a jeweled...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I love getting compliments! A couple people have told me I look like their mothers, which is kind of weird for a 17 year old to hear. My favorite compliment was from an elderly woman at a vintage car show who came up to me and said that I reminded her of some good times she had as a teen in the...
