Shabby Apple - Clothing Site to Watch
I came across a link to a clothing site on a blog I read occasionally. The site is called Shabby Apple, while the apparel isn't strictly vintage-inspired, the designers' philosophy made me smile: "A return to what dresses were always meant to be — a one-piece outfit. No need to add...- Polka Dot

Under Eye Circles
I'm one of the genetically unlucky when it comes to under eye circles. I think they are allergy related, as they get worse during allergy season. Until now, I've either ignored them or made do with drugstore concealer; now, I'm looking for a more powerful solution. What are your favorite eye... -

I did it...
Well, I went in to get a haircut. My hair was on my shoulderblades, and I as aiming to get about two inches cut off, to leave it just below my shoulders. I now have a bob. A long bob, perhaps, but now my hair comes about a half an inch past my chin. I don't know why the hairdresser thought I... -

Personal Ads
Does anyone have any positive or negative experiences with personal ads, specifically online personals? My roommate suggested I create a profile on okcupid.com to find a date for an upcoming formal Christmas party we're both going to. I don't know many people in Philadelphia, so I'm not totally...- Polka Dot

Cate Blanchett
Cate Blachett frequently goes vintage onscreen--for examples see her fantastic performances in The Aviator, Charlotte Gray, The Talented Mr. Ripley, and the upcoming The Good German. I've always felt she has incredible style in real life as well. She is always poised and polished and might just...- Polka Dot

Hair + Round Face
Hi Ladies, I'm back with another query. Crystalface recently opened a thread about hair for long faces, but what if you've got the exact opposite problem: a w-i-d-e face? I have a round face and, to my great regret, a really, really short neck. I like ponytails and the feeling of my hair being... -

All things Sewing Machines!
Hi ladies, I just had to share my excitement. My mom gave me her old sewing maching as a birthday gift! (Technically on 11/2, but UPS is fast.) It's a Pfaff from the 80s, and it sews circles around my dinky Brother. Eagerly awaiting my next Fashion Fabrics Club order... - Polka Dot- Polka Dot

Embroidery
Hello Ladies, With all the sewers on this board, I thought that some of you might also know something about embroidery. I recently made a batch of handkerchiefs from cotton batiste, as I'd like to get in the habit of carrying one more often. I now have a dozen plain white handkerchiefs, and I...- Polka Dot

Ladies' Hats (for Big Heads)
Continuing with our specialty size theme today, I have a question for you all. I have a big head. Not figuratively, but literally. I've always known that hats, aside from knit caps, don't fit my head. Today I decided to measure and figure out my actual head size. I came up with 23 1/2", or a...- Polka Dot
