    Changing one's look.

    I, like most others of you, transformed from "regular modern dressing" to my own vintage style. This happened rather young for me...I was about 13 or 14, but my understanding of "vintage" was not the vintage that I am into now, due to my poor knowledge and friends and others influences around...

    Lauren, I love the heart detail on the shoes and the ankle strap too. They just look adorable and quite comfortable. :)

    The Vintage Fur Thread

    I have got to say that fur is, and always has been, my vice, of sorts. 7 years ago, a classmate brought over a bag of vintage furs- stoles and hats (mainly 40s and 50s) from her chic grandmother to use for a school movie we had to make. She never picked the bag up after we called her many times...

    High Waisted Pants & Jeans!

    One of my first acquisitions on ebay was a pristine pair of high waisted, wide leg rose-colored 1940s linen pants, which are absolutely gorgeous. I got them for the steal price of $30- and have yet to see any like them either online or in person. What luck!

    Oh, I surely will. I also have to find the camera so I can take pictures of the literally 50 other pieces I picked up a week ago. Quite exciting!

    Thanks! I am glad someone else appreciates it. I can't wait to see what it looks like in person!

    Sheer Dresses and Blouses

    Thanks KittyT- It really does sound like such a nuissance with the wearing of sheer items. I guess I should look for a non-bulky, somewhat opaque, non-decorative slip that will work for everything- ah, the search is on.

    Original Veronica Lake Dress

    That is really such a beautiful dress. Exactly what kind of gowns I am looking to buy lately. :p That bow detail really does it for me.

    Sheer Dresses and Blouses

    I have thus far largely avoided purchasing sheer garments due to the fact that I don't exactly know how to go about wearing them. I am always afraid that I will not find the right slip or undergarment to go underneath, and that it might look awkward if I do. Also, if you are buying a sheer...

    Oh goodness, everyone has snapped up such lovely stuff! Lauren, I love those patterns, and LOVE those china sets you picked up. I recently won this http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=180135957137&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=008 (notice the bow detail in the fabric) for...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    I am really passionate about staying healthy and fit. I find the hardest thing to do is having an exercise plan and keeping to it, but once a habit is formed, the results are great. During high school, stress, long hours, etc. etc. put extra pounds on my frame, which I was quite unhappy about. I...

    I actually just received mine and it is quite a dress. Very form fitting and sexy looking. I like it a lot- very different than stuff I already have. What are you not sure of the correct way to wear? The dress or the pockety peplum thing??

    epr25- That is SO weird. So how does it look on and in person? I hope it is as great as it looks in photographs! If you ever decide to sell it, please let me know!

    Snow White

    Ellie- Chinatown has the best deals and a vast array of different parasols. I suggest you try that first before you look in specialty shops or online.

    Snow White

    I am naturally one of the palest people in existance (refer to avatar picture at left), so hopefully I can share some of my techniques that help me stay this way. Every day I use Clinique facial sunscreen on my face and exposed upper body parts in SPF 50. This is a gentle yet very powerful...

    BeBopBaby- That is such a pretty dress! I love the plaid, the details, the colors, everything. I just love finding undiscovered gems like that due to the bad photography, etc. etc. Hope it turns out great in person too.
