    liquid eyeliner?

    I use Maybelline Ultra-liner and have for years....tried others but was happier with this one and its price. I was just putting it on lamenting the challenge it becomes as one ages and starts to get the little creases & wrinkles....gets so much harder to get a smooth line! :( Ang

    Do you have a crush?

    I was told once (by my first husband, no less) that I should "marry a guy like Jimmy Stewart". Sadly, for my second marriage, I opted for a guy more like Mickey Rourke and am now 0 for 2! At least I got my gorgeous daughter, Ava, out of the 2nd marriage...... So you can perhaps understand why...

    You Guys Were So Great w/ Help on My Dali Tie...Now a Scarf, 1950..Help?

    Hmmm. I'm not sure I have the stones to auction it! I may even sit it on the site once I have a handle on what to expect of it. I just don't even know right now what to think about it! I'm at least going to do some decent research on it before making any decision. Thanks for answering me, I...

    You Guys Were So Great w/ Help on My Dali Tie...Now a Scarf, 1950..Help?

    Hi! A while back I had a Dali tie and couldn't find the source of the sketches depicted and I was able to get lots of fantastic help here. I come again with another Dali item! Not quite the same vein as the ties, but still pretty cool. I tried to research this International Silk Congress...

    Dali 40s Tie...."Sonic Web"....How To Research?

    Again, thank you thank you!!! I will pursue those mentioned and see if they have suggestions on what to do with this. I wish I had more mens stuff on my website so it was more of a draw for tie collectors and men in general, but its never been my strength (harder to find, harder to sell).....I'm...

    Dali 40s Tie...."Sonic Web"....How To Research?

    A friend on another board found this for me, from the book "Fit to be Tied"....""A regular Gone With The Wind of the tie business, meaning a runaway seller, was a series of tie designs created by Salvador Dali. There were some problems for tie manufacturer James Lehrer: "Frankly, we had to clean...

    Dali 40s Tie...."Sonic Web"....How To Research?

    Thanks, I've bookmarked the site. If I could get a handle on what this could go for I'd be able to determine what I can spend! Just nothing to go by on it, which is par for the course any more w/ vintage. I will contact them, at least, to see. Thank you! Ang

    Dali 40s Tie...."Sonic Web"....How To Research?

    Thanks! It is pretty wonderful. It has a couple very light spots which I will leave up to a collector to deal with, I'm afraid my cleaner won't be able to press this back to the correct width (though I could make a cardboard template to take in with it for him to use....hmmmm...). Anyway, if...

    Dali 40s Tie...."Sonic Web"....How To Research?

    Hey hey! I don't get over here as often as I'd like, but with opening a vintage store here in town I'm getting more mens vintage and may have to ask more questions now & then, if you all don't mind. I am hoping someone can steer me to a good way to research this tie. Its silk, 40s, Dali, marked...

    How Do You Date a Tux? Pics....

    Hi all! I had mentioned when I asked about the butterfly bowties a couple weeks back that I'd be working more with the estate people dealing with the couple's belongings, and thought there may be a tux. The ties were 20s but I have no way to know if this was the tux he wore those things with or...

    Any Idea on Date for This Dobbs Hat Box?

    Yeah, I won't be looking for big $$ on it, its pretty beat up. I bet it was pretty cool when the leather strap was decent. I also have a REALLY tall Lee one, and maybe another Dobbs. I just don't know how to date them, and keeping them around is getting ridiculous. Any idea what I'd say for...
