Barbigirl- Wonderful to see a few familiar faces still here. That is some brilliant longevity for a set, and what a cute set at that. The curl in front was rolled forward on base, but fell a bit. I forgot the heat setter.

She's darling, is she your first grandchild?

Cute factor is Dashiell's as well! I think that's why they make kids so cute.;)

I did attend a hangar dance back in October, and was perplexed on styling my pixie cut when inspiration struck in the form of Rosie the Riveter. Bandana, and a curled fringe equals easiest hairstyle ever. <----I'm also glad to finally have a pic of my second go-to hairstyle, the Louise Brooks...

I find my knee length pleated skirts at thrift stores.

Laura Chase- Thank you so much for your review! I was going to ask Trashy Diva about it, but you covered my questions. Last year I had ordered the Trixie dress in aqua and loved it, but the waist was a bit too long. I hated to admit that it wasn't flattering on me and I have now gifted it to a...

:eusa_clap I applaud you for the realization that I didn't personally find til my 30s. Not to say that those voices don't whisper to me every once in a while, but it's rare and manageable. One of my favorite blogs just posted this yesterday and I thought of this thread and you. If I could...
