My wife and I are in Delaware if you want to get together for drinks. I would still like to meet others enjoy and wear vintage. My wife is looking for help with hair and makeup.

Hello its a pleasure to make your acquaintance.

Hello My wife and I are buckeys and would love to get to know others here in the state. Are interests are widely varied but I have tried for years to get her to dress in a more vintage style and act in a more appropriate lady like style. I would love to meet others that could perhaps give...

Well I think everyone here is in agreement that these single strap deals are probably pretty useless. I know what you are probably thinking what does a guy know about this stuff? Well as a collecter of girdles and corsets and other vintage lingerie items, which I buy for my wife, I have done a...

Okay i think i got it figured out.

I found this on the secrets in lace site and was thinking about it for my wife but had a question. Would anyone actually wear a blouse like this out in public? Also my wife does not have this type of body and my guess is that only someone who is more toned should attempt to pull this look off...

I just bought my wife a pair of these from kohls.

Hello Carey Thanks for the response and yes please send me or post the style numbers. My wife is a 40DD according to the lady at Lane Bryant but that is modern styles. But in the boxed bras her cup size does go down. I really like the shape and the lift that the boxed bras give versus...

Its interesting the stories that you have all shared. My wife had similiar experience when she was wearing seamed stockings and ran into an older woman who remembered wearing them as a youngster. its funny how most people today have forgotten what is like to dress like a lady or a man...

Thank you all for the kind comments. I am glad you appreciate my being here as I was a little bit nervous at first how it might be percieved in a room dedicated more to just ladies talk. Heck I still get looks and comments on occassion when I join my wife in the dressingroom to help her with...

Bra Sizing I have a question about bra sizing. For the past few years now I have bought most all my wifes underwear and bras. Most of the time I buy either vintage style bras from ebay or the ones from the lingerie department by equisite form or playtex that come in boxes. I have a female...

Those are very cute.
