Both sides of my family fought for the axis. My great-grandpa was a Generalleutnant in the Wehrmacht, I believe. My grandpa was in the kriegsmarine, he was drafted near the end of the war. He doesn't really talk about his time in it, mainly due to being bitter over the fact he was almost...

Ladyday & Deadpandiva thank you!!! Also, deadpandiva, just keep checking measurements, I keep seeing 30's shoes in sizes 8-9.5 on ebay. Also, for some reason in vintage stores the shoes are all either 6< or 8>, so just keep trying on shoes even if they look like they might not fit...

Thank you!! I nearly died when I first saw them, especially since they are a large 7.5/small 8!

I just got these in the mail today. Sorry if they might be a bit big! Never worn 30s oxfords :) I bought them to match a dress, but I've discovered they match a whole lot more.

Thank you :)

thank you! lol The lady was difficult to work with, she kept denying the fact that I wanted the moons unpainted. However if you do want to have it done, just have them use the airbrush french manicure stickers. For the bottom just stick two of them together with a bit of space and airbrush...

Japanese sunblock is great! The only reason why it's much more advanced is because pure white skin is one of the most desirable beauty traits in Japan :) Here are some links to purchase japanese sunblock! You can even find powders. Imoko Sasa Shiseido is also a good brand. I use...

Shalimar is my favorite. I wear Guerlain's 'Colors of Love' daily, and Chanel number 5 for special events.

I bought this at an antique shop for $20, it was never used :)

My favorites are 'Classic Dame' by Mac and 'Retro Red' by Avon. Sadly, both are discontinued.
