    Italian Americans persecuted during WW II in the US

    Considering going for the chop??

    To be honest, I thought of going much shorter this time but I can't afford the maintenance. On American sites they discourage round and/or chubby faces from having too short hairstyles. Many women with chubby faces here have pixies and I don't think they all look bad but some of them would look...

    Hourglass figure

    Those are some spectacular measurements. I think I used to be closer to an hour glass before I had children. I remember that one piece dresses, longer dress jackets never fit right and I really had to pull the belt in my jeans tight.

    Anyone else ever feel like this?

    Since rediscovering the vintage style (first in teens but always interested in historical styles) I've had two such periods. The first one made me feel concerned and a bit sad. Now I don't fight it and just allow myself to go through those periods. I live now, I live at a time where so many...

    shopping rant

    Either they're all over me like undercover cops hunting a criminal or I start worrying that I've crossed over and not realized it. I prefer online shopping these days whenever possible.

    What are you listening to?

    Oh thanks. I love the Lawrence Welk show. When I lived in CA I used to watch it on PBS every weekend. Yes, I was an odd teenager in the 1990s.

    What are you listening to?

    Ricky Nelson. Unchained Melody - Usually prefer Roy Orbison on this one. True Love - Usually prefer Patsy Cline. Now I don't have one preference on either any more. I like Nelson as much as Orbison and Cline on these two songs. Ricky Nelson - That's All. Frankie Sardo - I'm...

    Hourglass figure

    There's a new Danish brand started by a Danish man who's married to an African woman (sorry, don't know which African country, didn't intend to sound ignorant, I know Africa isn't a country or a culture) who has problems finding jeans that fit in "that area" so her husband decided to design...

    1920's makeup

    I love that look crazydaisy. I think I could get away with that for daywear. I'm just too lazy to re-shape my lips. 1. Some where I read that eye make-up wasn't worn during the day at all. is that true? They didn't blend either according to some sources? 2. Are the brows supposed to...

    Getting very long hair to hold curl

    You can't buy them in Denmark to my knowledge but they have them in the U.S. and I think they come in a few sizes. Some make their own. They look like cylindrical pillows with ribbons on the ends to tie them to your hair. Others look like these...

    Eyebrow Grooming

    The left brow sits a bit higher than the right brow. I tried to cover up the natural brow shape and draw it in but it looked stupid and unnatural and I can't imagine myself walking around with part or fully covered brows with fake ones drawn on top. Too much work for every day and hub would...

    Getting very long hair to hold curl

    I fully support your decision to keep your hair long and I understand why you won't allow heat to be used on your hair. I wouldn't allow heat, metal, or styling products near my hair when it was long. Well, eventually I relented on the styling products and the hair pins and that was a huge...

    Hypo-allergenic or natural hair dyes...

    I've heard of a type of henna product that works just like a hair mask/deep conditioner and comes in a similar plastic jar with lid type container. Have anyone tried this formula? I'd like my hair to be super, shiny, black but I'm afraid of commercial dark hair dyes because they contain...

    To bob or not to bob?

    There is a disadvantage in mid length bobs in my experience. Shirt collars and dangling earrings don't work as well with this bob length as with shorter or longer bobs because the earrings and collar can cause unwanted random flips and bends so the bottom isn't evenly straight or curved under...

    Footwear for Winter

    I don't know if they can replace the entire bottom but then the boots won't have that ECCO durable and comfortable bottom.

    Hourglass figure

    I guess I'm pear shaped and not an hour glass after all. 33-25½-34. The difference is problematic anyway.

    Footwear for Winter

    I think I've had my winter boots for soon 10 years. They're flat, black, leather, lace up, ankle high. I dread the thought that I may have to replace them some day because these are as good as hiking boots but look nice too. All the snow hiking boots today have a very sporty look that just...

    How tall are you, Ladies?

    When I first saw the pole result I was jokingly going to ask if all the 5'7"+ ladies are Danish. I know one Danish woman my age who's just 2 inches taller than me making her 5ft even but her legs are shorter than mine[huh] , everyone else dwarfs both her and I. All the petite women I know are...

    Home Delivery of Ice, Milk, Laundry, etc.

    At the same time in the 70s when my parents were shopping in supermarkets, some rural areas such as where my husband grew up, could still have milk delivered. They had catalogue clothes shopping over 2-3 decades before the rest of us. I remember being fascinated with this giant ice "cube"...

    How tall are you, Ladies?

    We don't even have petite sizes here and it wouldn't matter at 4'10"ft. I've posted before. I have an unhealthy obsession with this thread.:o
