Spitfire complained about it, so I'm leaving a comment, I usually just look. :)
I like the pictures of the people the most, especially the potato peelers and the italien family.
Thank you for sharing :)
Fantastic
Ah, the Louge is great, just great! I have read this whole tread! I have tried to find someone who could make a White Lady since I read about it in a Agatha Christie book 9 years ago! But nobody recognized the name. And finally I know! And it seems to be just my kind of drink!
I love...
Oh, Vintage Betty, your suits are wonderfull. I wish I could grab the black and white one of the screen, its to die for! The Lilly Ann is also very beautiful! Your reproductions look like very good work. I guess you use a propper tailor?
Your problem sounds similar to my skin some years back. My doctor advised me to stop showering ever day, and go as many days as I could manage between the showers. And get some massage oil to rub in at the flaky parts. I started using virgin jojoba oil, it worked wonders for me! Its quite oily...
I would bee more surprised if they had NOT retouched the images, it is the standard today to nip in the waist, take away any bulges and wrinkles, and make the legs look like a mile long. I remember seeing an interview with Kate Winslett where she talked about how for a fashion magazine cover...
Lol, the coat is exactly the kind of pattern I have been looking for!
I also think this one is vintage inspiert:

If your old Singer is in good working condition you don't need a new one. New sewing machines are not necessarly better than old ones. But I guess it dosn't have sigsag seam so you will have to use french seam when making clothing.
This page explaines how to do french seems...
Oh!
imoldfashioned,
that pattern for evening dress is just the kinde I have being looking for! I'm feeling a bit forward her, seeing I'm so new to the lounge, but if I can't find a similar one would you mind me maybe asking for a copy in the future?
Kim_B,
I have seen the clips, but...
where to look
read any of the treads about hair and you will find litteraly tones of information about how to get your hair done the vintage way :)
I did anyway, and thats how I finally understood how to do my hair, and not just my makup!
So thank you, all of you, who have been writing...
Pin curls invade my sleep
I dreamed about pin curls. I've had the bottle of setting lotion and the bobin pines for months now. I put them one my bathroom counter yesterday to see if I could work up the courage to try, but no.
I woke up this morning after a very long dream all about me trying...
Sadley I do not remember the site, but I remeber reading about that culottes where in use for sports and the beach, but that they where discouraged. I remeber because I had to look upp what a culotte is.... I have to try and find the site again...
