Miss Tre - you look so much like Eartha Kitt! Gorgeous!

I think I own the pattern on the right. I'll have to go check.

I just saw these gals in a Three Stooges short a few days ago and I couldn't figure out where I had seen them before. Then I log onto the Fedora Lounge and there is the answer to my question. What a funny coincidence!

I got the cashmere 3/4 sleeve Kate cardigan sweater in park green for Christmas and I am in love with it! I'm a larger size as well and have a hard time finding cardigans that are flattering. I second the vote for Lands End's cardigans for larger gals. The cashmere is a nice thick, sturdy...

Well, then again I'll repeat my post about hip hop fashion really coming into it's own during the 1990s.

But, they had a huge resurgence in the 1990s. I'm thinking of the short, school girl look dresses that got popular in the 1990s thanks to movies like Clueless. A lot of the grunge gals wore them as well and I seem to remember seeing them on a lot of supermodels as well. It may have been a...

No one mentioned the real main-stream start of hip hop style in the early 90s?! Think of the clothing worn on In Living Color and Mtv videos... What about all the ugly clothing/hairdos from the tv show Friends? Baby doll dresses? All that herion-chic supermodel fashion ugliness?

I totally love wacky late teens/early 20s bathing costumes. Preferably with big bold prints. I saw a picture of one once with a spierweb design on it. Love. I also really love Mexican souvenier circle skirts. I have one from Acapulco with cliffs and cliff divers painted on it. And...

Ladies, thank you for your feedback regarding selling vintage patterns on eBay. Your expertise is very helpful! I have one more question, under which category do you list your vintage patterns? When I searched for vintage patterns, I found multiple categories that they would fit under...

A question regarding selling vintage patterns... Is it better to sell them in lots on eBay? Do you tend to get a better price that way? I have 5 deadstock 1920s patterns (3 dresses, 2 blouses) all bust 38. Do you think I should sell them seperately or in a lot to get the best price?

The few times I've tried velcro/brush rollers, they got tangled up horribly in my hair. I guess they are okay if you have straight, fine hair, but I would not recommend them for thick, curly hair.

The Thayer's rose witch hazel has a really nice scent. It smells just like rosewater or like real roses. I hate that sickly sweet scent that a lot of manufacturers try to pass off as rose, that smells nothing like roses. Dr. Bronner's Rose castile soap has that sickly sweet scent to it. It's...

I thought it was Carefree, but I googled and googled and could not find a picture of that dress so I thought I was wrong. :) Thanks for the picture! I love that dress.

I've always had it bad for the green dress with plaid trim that Ann Miller wears in the Prehistoric Man number in On the Town. I couldn't find a photo of the dress, but here's a video clip from YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AM4L38u5vpE Also, in what movie does Ginger Rodgers...

I wonder what happened to Clemontine?
