I'll keep my eye out. They don't seem to be available in Canada, or at least in my part of it. I can find one for just shy of 30$ on Amazon though, haha!

Lizzie, I never would have thought of using a wavenet. It seems so obvious in hindsight! What sleep cap do you use? I've been looking for a good one. Swanson, front curls and braiding the back is exactly what I did when I had longer hair. I completely forgot until you said it. Benign...

That's the rub, isn't it? Longer hair takes so much extra care.

Your hair is gorgeous. Definitely Victorian or Edwardian though. How long are you going to grow it?

Goodness, I don't think we spent more than $300 total this year, for 6 people!

Kids, I tell you. Berets are so cute, but do literally nothing for my face shape. Cloches work nicely for me, but wreak havoc on my hair!

That's just awful. I write and embroider myself, and have a family history of bad glaucoma. I'm terrified of losing my sight. Has your Doctor given you any treatment options? I imagine dry eyes due to rosacea can't just be treated with eye drops.

It depends on the day! If I've got the energy to go full out vintage, I'll shower in the evening and keep it in pin curls over night. I don't work mornings, just afternoon/evenings so there is enough time to shake it out and let it dry a little more before working. If it's a lazy day, I'll...

I love this so much. What a fantastic record to have!

I'm a wrapping paper kind of girl for sure. My husband and I make a night of it, usually when the kiddo is at Grandma and Grandpas. A couple of glasses of wine, something nice on the telly, and a truckload of presents and wrapping paper.

I will be relaxing on the couch, alternating between crocheting my dreaded project afghan and reading a book. We just got in from vacation - my favourite cousin halfway across the country got married, and we drove out for it. We got in at 6am today after driving for about 20 hours. The...

I just ordered Red Velvet Lipstick and the new 1941 Victory Red Lipstick today - I can't wait for it to come in the mail. I may have bought a bunch of other Besame products as well...had to get free shipping, right? :D

Here is my playlist. It's a mix of 30s, 40s and 50s music with some other appropriate sounding bits thrown in. :D I like to play it when I'd setting my hair, but I tend to play it quite a bit - I think my husband could sing along to most of these with me! It's accidentally become my house...

Thanks ladies. That was my thought too, about the rise. I prefer high waisted, my body type just looks better with it, and low rise is a no go. Mid rise might be doable for me. Scarlett, vintage inspired is my very thought! They are modern enough that my workplace can't complain about...

I love Old Navy, regardless of how trendy much of their clothing is - it tends to be the right price point for me! They occasionally carry some vintage-feel items, and these Harper Pants seem to be close to 1950s style. I've found an image from a Cigarette Pants pattern on Etsy, and they...
