Extra! Extra! Read All About it! Every Five Seconds!
News for entertainment's sake The ballot didn't have my choice either. I watch the morning news before going into work (mostly because I enjoy the banter between the cohosts), and check MSN.com a couple times during the day (mostly because I'm procrastinating on a project). Occasionally, I'll...- The Bingstress

No worries You didn't come across poorly at all, Lauren. It's true that not too many girls do the full-on vintage pinup look well. Props to those who try at all. :) Hugs & blessings, The Bingstress- The Bingstress

"It" - For the Gals.
Today's It Girls? In one of the final issues of ATOMIC Magazine (and it may have been the final issue -- my memory is failing me), we did a round-up of the "Top Ten Retro Actresses". That is, we chose the top 10 modern-day actresses we felt best exemplified that classic "it" sensibility and...- The Bingstress

Timeless style Thanks for voting, Lauren! I agree with your comment. To me, only Lisa and Laura look truly vintage inspired. I think Kate does, too, to some degree -- she just needs a more classic hairdo for the photos. (She can't help those long legs!) And since MarieAnna claims to be a...- The Bingstress

Banter lines
Clever quips Now that I've lived in Texas for nearly three years, I have picked up the saying from my husband Craig, "I tell you what!" It doesn't translate that well here, but when said with the right intonation, it can mean anything from, "You moron" to "I was just about to smack...- The Bingstress

Newport News
I love Newport News! I love this site, and my husband bought me a fabulous leopard-print velvet coat from there last year: (Sorry gals, it's currently sold out!) ;) I've currently got my eye on a couple of other pics. The leopard jacket would probably come in handy around these parts...- The Bingstress

How many Texans we got here?
Just passing through... Okay, so I've been totally MIA for the past few weeks (darned day jobs always getting in the way), and haven't had time to do any follow up on our First Annual Texas Retrophile Reunion. Is anyone/everyone still interested? Most of the shops in Old Downtown Carrollton...- The Bingstress

How many Texans we got here?
A few good men Biltmore Bob, my husband Big T will be part of the gathering, as well. I think that makes at least four men, so you're on safe ground. I also want to commend you for your concerns about propriety. It is a rare man of integrity who has the self-discipline to guard against...- The Bingstress

How many Texans we got here?
How did I miss this? I can't believe I never saw this thread, especially since there are so many familiar faces here. (Believe it or not, a friend from Tokyo just sent me the link!) Big T and I live in Carrollton, just north of Dallas, and we would not miss the opportunity to rendezvous with...- The Bingstress

The first thing I ever bought from ebay...cool or what?
Okay, I gotta admit, those repro labels are way cool. Printing vintage images out on photo sticker paper is downright brilliant, and decoupaging them was a great idea. Are you familiar with Readymade (www.readymademag.com)? You can probably find a copy at Barnes & Noble or Borders. It's a cool...- The Bingstress

ebay hat I just won
I agree! I think it looks great with your hair in curls and the bright red, fur-collared jacket you paired it with in the photos. Very retro glamorous. The curls balance out the bulk of the hat and give the proper vintage look. I think it suits you very well and it's quite adorable. That said...- The Bingstress

My New Hat
Divine! That hat is gorgeous. Simple in design, yet intricate in appearance and very elegant. Please post a photo of you in the hat and your matching jacket after the package arrives! (Some of us have to live vicariously.) ;) Hugs & blessings, The Bingstress- The Bingstress

Hey Big Guy, tell the missus-to-be to get her patootie into the Fedora Lounge! :p I had such a great time talking with her when we met in LA last year, and she'd be a great addition to our little hen party.

RetroRadar Thoughts and Prayers Request
Not too far... Yep, the old town square isn't too far from ScubaToys. I think that's just a mile or two further north on I-35. If you turn off the highway at Beltline Road and head east, the first right is Broadway. Two blocks down Broadway is the square for Historic Old Downtown Carrollton. :)- The Bingstress

Looking for book reviewer or Bobby Darin fan
Hey Lucky, Thanks for the note! The book is 250 pages, which includes about 10 pages of photos. It's standard "book" size (about 6" x 9"), if that helps. My guess is it's a quick and fun read, but my opinion is admittedly biased. ;) If you're willing to give it a whirl, please shoot me a...- The Bingstress

ebay hat I just won
Hats off! I actually think it suits you very well! It does have a different shape than I expected, but it looks very cute when cocked to the side and flatters the angles of your face. I would recommend doing more of a Veronica Lake style hairdo, or something smooth on top with big rolls that...- The Bingstress

Looking for book reviewer or Bobby Darin fan

my new dress
Great job! That dress is fantastic! It looks so professional, and the tailoring is perfect on you. (Oh, if only I could fill out a torso like that...) I'm curious to know what fabric you used, as well. The floral pattern is very 1940s. Would you be interested in writing an article for...- The Bingstress
