Great new product suggestion: Aveda Flax Seed Aloe sculpturing gel! One of the stylists I worked with last weekend used this on my hair prior to a wet set. I went under the hair dryer and it dried quite fast... not to mention my hair stayed in place! I had a cute little updo that stayed in...

Thanks! Yep, I chopped the locks and grew out my fringe. It takes a little more effort to style now... but so worth it. Much more versatile!

I recently picked up a pair of vintage Del Mar stockings at an antique store for $10-- Jitterbugdoll clued me into them! ;-) I have worn them several times... those things just won't quit! I'm rather clumsy when it comes to wearing vintage stockings. No runs or pulls in them! Kay-- I love...

I can't remember the names of the owners of the cars! I just know it was Mike and Mike Jr., haha! There were two identical cars. They were gorgeous-- photos just don't do them any justice. Both of them were completely stock-- not one thing had been changed on them from when they were...

I am totally guilty of spending ridiculous amounts of money on vintage stockings. In fact, the ones I received as part of my prize from the Retro Radar contest were $45 for both pairs... I wore one pair, and now I'm scared to even wear the others... they are just too beautiful to ruin! Even...

Okay, retract my last post... I was over here scratching my head... "Nudity?" I kept thinking... I looked through the photos I have from this past weekend, and yeah, there was nudity in one! I have a couple of collages from studio outtakes that the photographer sent me... truthfully, I...

Hey everyone, I am supposedly the one who posted the offending photo. MK privately messaged me, saying nudity was not allowed around here. I don't recall posting any nude shots... in fact, I don't do nude shots! I also understand that this is a thread to post photos in vintage clothing. I was...

So good to see you here, sweetie! :-) I can't believe I forgot all about SIL! A lot of people complain about the price... but these babies are soooooo worth it! They are as close to the real vintage thing as you can get!

I exclusively wear foundations from What Katie Did and Girdlebound. Both pretty much stock Rago products (which I think are THE best girdles/foundations, hands down). Girdlebound carries girdles by Crown, which are a bit more modern, but I still like those. I pretty much own every item both...

I was in Sephora over the weekend, and saw a cream blush by Nars called Cactus Flower. I didn't buy it only because I had a heaping basket full of stuff I really wanted already, but I am anxious to try it out. It's a rather bright color, but is a vintage looking coral. Plus I know with a cream...

My favorites - Houbigant Quelques Fleurs (I use this daily) Chanel No. 5 Chanel Coco Guerlain Shalimar Cacharel Anais Anais Coty Jungle Gardenia (discontinued, sadly) Chanel Gardenia Agent Provocateur ($$$$$!)

Amanda-- Those are great! I especially like the one where your back is turned to the camera, with your feather boa! Okay folks... here is a few from my latest shoots (following the trend) :-) If only I had no tattoos! *Sigh*

I came across a rather nice vintage-y smelling scent this weekend while shopping in Sephora. It's called L'Instant de Guerlain. I have always been a fan of Guerlain's Vetiver, but I think this one is much better. It is described as "jasmine, citrus and star anise, leading to notes of...

I use Dandelion. It is supposed to be used as "pick me up"... to make one look refreshed and perky... but if you are pale enough, I think it makes a great rouge. It is one of the few products I really do like. One thing, though... I use it in the Dandelion palette. It is a tad darker than if...
