Poll: Dean Martin or Bing Crosby?
Bing since i was little. Was introduced to Dean rather late and don't really know his music so I can't really compare. Like his daughter Deanna's voice. -

Thanks, I must widen my google search criteria when I search for pictures of my favorite 50s/60s celebrities like Connie or Annette. -
Retro=Frumpy?
I like comical!:D Just like I have a weakness for creature costume jewelry.:) I particularly like loud and bright clothes with matching nails, thighs, etc. Ie. I used to wear a grass green fleece top with green nails, green eyeshadow, and if wearing a skirt or dress, green or hot pink...- Lillemor

Retro=Frumpy?
Sometimes it's really the ill fit of some of the vintage hand-me-overs that cause the dreaded frumpy look for me. I try with belts, colorful thighs, and those splashes of individual updated elements I've already mentioned. I just feel I can't afford to be too critical at this point but at...- Lillemor

Show us your hair do's....
Darhling, the glasses still look good if you like them to dominate. If you don't want them to dominate then a light tortoise would look good too just to mention one alternative. -
Retro=Frumpy?
I'm frumpy even by vintage standards but it's because I have to make do with what I have now and make it work with my lifestyle because I can't afford to dress better and I have to think of my active rural life. When I feel self conscious about the frumpy factor I tweak my style more towards...- Lillemor

Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage
Well, the main change has been from mainly receiving glares and a rude comment to indifference from people who regularly see me out and about to smiles and comments on specific details of my attire but no comments specifically vintage related perhaps because my style isn't authentic vintage and...- Lillemor

Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage
Kate O Potato, I love the dress and the color! Lenora I wish I had that kind of pressure/excuse. Any attempts at looking my age in vintage gets odd looks. The sweet, innocent retro/vintage high school looks gets me loads of compliments, smiles and long looks from both genders and people...- Lillemor

Before and After?
KittyT, I like your hair both set and un-set. Gracie Lee, my cut is similar to your top photo (I grew tired of the U shape and bottom layers I had last year) but I'm struggling to manage my side bangs on a day to day basis especially when it's windy where it's annoying if they blow in the... -

Show us your hair do's....
SheBear74, your hair looks really good. When mine was shorter I could do something similar. Darhling, stop teasing us and let us see what your hair looks like without the rollers in!:) I think the final color will suit you but you seem to be able to pull off any color. -
So, do you wear Sunscreen?
It seems like you get skin cancer if you do and you get skin cancer if you don't and I need my D's so I'm going for a happy medium and just doing as the docs tell me to do! I don't like being yelled at.;) I'm vain so I'm afraid to go completely without sun screen at any time from April-May... -

The very *pink* of perfection!
Pink is one of those colors I fall in and out of love with. I tend to prefer the deep or vivid clear pinks but clear pastel pinks can be gorgeous too. I guess I prefer the pinks that suit me. I like Annette Funicello's pink swimsuit. Yes, I have an obsession with Connie Francis: -

I look good in some poisonous shades of green that most Danes steer clear of. I had a very toxic green Spring/Summer jacket that made people cringe.lol But it suited me!
