    hair quandary poll

    Please help me pick a colour for my hair. I have very light skin, fairly pinky. I do not tan, I burn and then go back to being light pink. I have green eyes. This is me with coppery red hair. I think my natural pallor makes it more convincing. ;) This sort of auburn-ish light...

    Jewelry Wardrobe Essentials

    I cannot find Miss Manners' list online, but I know I've seen it before. I know there's older lists as well and I would dearly love to see any if someone has one. Basically, this is NOT a list of every cool vintage piece of jewelry you might want. And you don't have to wear all of these every...

    Autos of Never-were

    In the time of PT Cruisers and HHRs, and fiberglass kits... ...If you were designing a car with a distinctly vintage flavour but NOT a replica of an authentic vehicle, just a Gotham City sort of interpretation of a bygone age, what would you do? You can salute multiple makes, pursue lost...

    That's A Lotta Latke

    Happy Chanukah, yuhz guys! I didn't see a thread. If there is one, I apologize and blame the fried food. How's the holiday treating you? I got some lovely things. I hope everyone got some fried goodies, too.

    Dream Your Vintage House

    This thread is for, not showing off finished rooms, like in the Show Us Your Vintage Home thread in Display Case, but for ideas, dreams, or works in progress of what you'd someday like to live with. I was thinking this could be a home thread for those of us, who, say, either can't paint or make...

    Interesting Idea

    I was reading a book today, a guide on fashion, that is actually not a vintage book (mid-eighties, I believe) but it was written by an older woman who was attempting to offer a cost-effective way to acheive a look she stresses is "timeless" and "classic" - it works very well with a lot of what I...

    Vintage-Style Wedding?

    Hi everyone. I've been gone a while but I remember you all fondly. You all have so much knowledge and style I'm quite eager to pick your brains again! (didja miss the annoying questions? Didja? How 'bout now? lol ) My guy and I are getting married in about a year and a half. Maybe less *if*...

    Getting Started, Wardrobe Staples?

    Hi, ladies. I must shamefully admit that for a person with as many posts as I have on the FL, I have very little in the way of an actual vintage-style wardrobe. I came for decor and, "flavor" originally. For those getting started, particularly on a tight budget, what would you say are the...

    Pixies and Bobs - Take the SHORTcut!

    Hi, ladies. I just enlisted in the U.S. Navy and will be shipping out by Feburary. And women need their hair cut to just above your shoulder at the longest, and honestly I wouldn't mind somewhat shorter just for ease of care if I'm getting very little sleep and not getting to wash it every...

    Westerns & Singing Cowboys?

    I was looking at Cowboy Action Shooting, a target shooting sport using mostly vintage-style Old West firearms. What am I doing posting about the 1880s on the Fedora Lounge, you ask? Well, one of the categories for participation is the B-Western. This is the Roy Rogers / Tom Mix / John...

    Lady Adventurers, Women of Mystery!

    Looking in the General Adventurers thread was really inspiring, and I was wondering if maybe we needed a thread of our own in the powder room? How to get a vintage and convincing feel for ladies on the frontiers, on safari, or who ride or sail? Mike K. kindly directed me to Orvis, which...

    Frightening Trend - Article.

    This is an eight-page article from the NY Metro on the phenomenon of "grups" - adults in their mid-to-late 30s who wear Converse to work and like their blue jeans tattered and refuse to grow up. http://newyorkmetro.com/news/features/16529/index.html Its kind of interesting, interpreted as this...
