    What is your Curl Set Routine for Fine/Thin Hair

    I have super fine hair too, but a TON of it. My hair doesn't hold a curl well typically, so I do a couple of different things depending on the amount of curl I want and what the weather is like in Houston. I ALWAYS apply setting lotion to my hair after a shower and depepnding on the time...

    Can you help me date this item??

    This is my wedding ring. It was my great-grandmother's wedding ring (my great-grandfather replaced her original ring with this one from their antique store), then my grandmother wore it on her right hand, then it served as my mother's wedding ring and now it is mine. Sorry for the HUGE...

    Long Vintage Hair

    My hair is pretty long as well and I am just learning to style it. I do a lot of sponge roller and hot roller sets and then brush out like crazy. Maybe a roll in the front, faux Bettie bangs, or a pomp - all with the back down in wavy curls. My go-to style lately has been faux rolls- twisted...

    Thanks Black Dahlia! I was thinking early 60s/late 50s too.

    My husband got me this at an antique mall in New Braunfels, TX last weekend. Isn't she a peach!? Can anyone help me date this bag?

    Thanks Romy! I am taking a class thru my local school district's continuing education, but it has not been very fruitful. After 6 weeks, while everyone else in my class is still working on their first project of some God-awful scrubs, I have made 2 pair of PJ pants, nearly finished a circle...

    Unpopular music opinions

    I have no idea what you are talking about, but I wanted to thank you for posting some SCOTS. I love 'em. Are you saying you like them or don't like them? I saw them last Good Friday and will see them again later this month and they put on a great show.

    I secretly love this song. I get a tad giddy when it pops up in my iPod's shuffle every so often.

    Sorry for the crummy picture quality, but I'm dying to share what I have made as well. Let me say that I am a beginning sewist and this was my very first project. They are pajama bottoms made from an "Elvis in the 50s" cotton print. As I gain more skills, confidence and experience, I hope to...

    I love the things you've made. I have a very hard time finding vintage/vintage inspired in my size (modern 16) and have recently taken up sewing to try and remedy that. Your stuff totally inspires me! And you look absolutely adorable!

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    I'm new as well and have been asked to visit this thread. Am I in trouble? I'm Heather, from Houston, Texas and my era of interest is the 40s and 50s. I found FL while searching numerous things over the years and have lurked on occasion. However, I got really into the Saddle Shoes thread and...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Lenore, I am in the same boat. (A boat in Houston, no less.) I typically go for a more 50s look, so being able to wear jeans every day is a blessing. But I agree that it is easy to get lazy. Mondays are the worst for me. I'm ususally coming off a Friday night set and my hair would be prime for...
