I have not tried them, but I may! Still sponge and hot rollering nowadays.

I have super fine hair too, but a TON of it. My hair doesn't hold a curl well typically, so I do a couple of different things depending on the amount of curl I want and what the weather is like in Houston. I ALWAYS apply setting lotion to my hair after a shower and depepnding on the time...

Those are the 2 I am coveting. Great choice!

Looks like I need to brush up on my lingo and get me some banana puddin'!

Anyone? Anyone?

Thanks for all the propers, gals. I can't stop wearing them!

This is my wedding ring. It was my great-grandmother's wedding ring (my great-grandfather replaced her original ring with this one from their antique store), then my grandmother wore it on her right hand, then it served as my mother's wedding ring and now it is mine. Sorry for the HUGE...

My hair is pretty long as well and I am just learning to style it. I do a lot of sponge roller and hot roller sets and then brush out like crazy. Maybe a roll in the front, faux Bettie bangs, or a pomp - all with the back down in wavy curls. My go-to style lately has been faux rolls- twisted...

Thanks Black Dahlia! I was thinking early 60s/late 50s too.

I have no idea what you are talking about, but I wanted to thank you for posting some SCOTS. I love 'em. Are you saying you like them or don't like them? I saw them last Good Friday and will see them again later this month and they put on a great show.

I secretly love this song. I get a tad giddy when it pops up in my iPod's shuffle every so often.

Sorry for the crummy picture quality, but I'm dying to share what I have made as well. Let me say that I am a beginning sewist and this was my very first project. They are pajama bottoms made from an "Elvis in the 50s" cotton print. As I gain more skills, confidence and experience, I hope to...

I love the things you've made. I have a very hard time finding vintage/vintage inspired in my size (modern 16) and have recently taken up sewing to try and remedy that. Your stuff totally inspires me! And you look absolutely adorable!
