When does the "Golden Era" start and end for you?
As far as "Golden Era" specifically, I think of it as referring to 1930-1945. The word "Vintage", to me, captures the entire era of 1920-1965. I think after 1965 things started to become a lot more "modern"; it's like after the shooting of JFK in 1963 the world sort of lost its innocence--or at...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

Show us your hair do's....
No pictures but a happy story... About three weeks ago I trimmed and re-layered my hair, with the shortest layers at my chin and the longest about four inches below my shoulder. Last Thursday I finally decided to set it for an impending swing dance :D and left the set in for eighteen hours to...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

Motherhood & the Vintage Lifestyle
I'm not a mother, but can I pop into this thread for a moment? I'm currently a personal care assistant for the disabled, it is NOT a glamorous job and I get tired of wearing jeans & Tshirts all the time. Does anyone have any suggestions for glamming things up a little? Just to lift my spirits...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage
My dad was watching How to Marry a Millionaire the other day and said I reminded him of Lauren Bacall. I guess it was the poofy dress. :o- Hey_Laaaaaady!

Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage
I mustered up the courage to finally wear a hat (besides the unobtrusive beret) out to run errands the other day...a wide-brimmed red felt. I got a lot of funny looks in Wally World (and no wonder!) but at the antique store a lady stopped me and said, "Your hat is beautiful!" Which, of course...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

Vintage Bathing Suits
I am having the exact same problem sportell! I want to make my own suit but I don't know how. I'm not very good with knits. I don't think cotton would be a good thing to wear in the water but I simply don't know. I'm wondering how to use a modern spandex with a vintage pattern, or if I should...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

As A Kid, What Were You Like?
I was quite shy unless I actually knew someone, and then I could be very boisterous. (I guess I still am that way!) I remember being quite bossy. I was always usually the "good kid" in school who did all her work and never got into trouble...and I got branded with that for pretty much my entire...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

What did you dream about last night?
I dream a lot about things that could potentially be plays or books...I mean, plots. I have based many of my stories on bits of dreams that really stood out to me. Kinda weird... This morning, right before I woke up, I was dreaming about sewing a black & white checked circle skirt and matching...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

do you have many friends?
I'm friendly with just about everybody, but I have to know someone a long time before I can open up to them. Thus, I have one very best friend, a small circle of really good friends with the same interests, and a wider circle of acquaintances on the internet, with the same interests. I'm happy...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

songs that make you shiver/cry
Stardust (Michael Buble's version)--MAJOR chills the first time I heard it! My favorite song ever. :D the Sound of Silence by Simon & Garfunkel and Lost by Michael Buble both make me tear up *sniff* Amazing Grace by Celtic Woman--again with the chills- Hey_Laaaaaady!

vintage first names no longer in use today or not popular anymore
My name is Virginia--I'm in high school--and I have yet to meet someone named Virginia under the age of 50. Equally uncommon is my nickname, Ginny (spelt that way, I mean. I run into a lot of "Jennys" and it's very frustrating--no one pronounces my name right!). I was thrilled as a kid when my...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

Show us your hair do's....
Lovely hairdos, ladies! This thread is so inspiring. :) I have a question, what length of hair would look best with a heart-shaped face? Mine is currently about four inches past my shoulder and it isn't holding curls well, and I think shorter hair would make it easier to achieve a more visibly...- Hey_Laaaaaady!

Thanks, everyone. :) I love coming here, you all are so encouraging.

In Need of Some Positive Societal Reinforcement...
Sorry I don't know exactly where to put this... I was put into a situation today with a bunch of other teenagers whom I don't know. Of course they're all typical teenagers by today's standards, and I have absolutely nothing in common with them. Which is fine by me. I prefer being an...- Hey_Laaaaaady!
