    Where to put things...

    I've come to find I own quite a lot of hats and pairs of shoes, and I'm in need of a number of ways (preferably vintage methods) of storing them away for easy access. I like to see what options I have so I'd rather not stuff them all away in a box. I also need to find myself a few nice...

    Nightclubs

    Looking over these reviews - http://www.tipsontables.com/ - made me so jealous of all the lucky rich people in the olden days. Do nightclubs such as these still exist for all you big city types? Have you been in them? How are they different from regular nightclubs? I wonder what sort of...

    Music to put you in the mood

    Does anyone else load up iPods or MP3 players or more old-fashioned CD or cassette tape players with vintage songs to add a more cinematic vintage feel to strutting down the street? My favourite vintage song for it currently is "We'll meet again" - it gives everything a nostalgic, touching feel...

    Ideal bodies for the eras

    Hi all. I've recently gotten a bit worried about whether I'll be able to fit into most vintage garbs and vintage reproductions, even if I do lose a bit of weight I'm likely to be around 38, 30, 40 in breasts, waist and hips and I'm not sure just what era could fit my oddly hourglass...

    1930s vintage in today's gyms

    Do you vintage ladies and gents go down to the local gyms, sports centers or the like in vintage-style clothing? What choices have you made? What compromises? I'm especially keen to hear from the vintage ladies on this one.

    Moving with grace

    I've always been a clumsy child watching the lovely ladies movie with such grace and ease on the silver screen. How does a girl move like a lady? How should one sit? Not all the time, most likely, I doubt I have the fortitude to make this my new way of moving but I would like to know how to...

    Should I straighten my hair before pin curling?

    I've always wondered how a girl should prepare her hair before going for a vintage look. Should I wash and shampoo that morning? The night before? Should I have my hair perfectly straight (I have wavy hair) before putting in the pin curls? Or should I let it be wavy? How does a person make...

    How does a person learn the style?

    Style is a hard thing to pin down. I've noticed by watching golden oldie movies certain characteristics of clothing that are prevalent during certain time periods but how does a person know if another characteristic is completely anachronistic to the period? What I mean is, as I can't...

    Hat Hair

    I tried searching for it in the old threads but I couldn't find it. Does anyone have any advice for not having terrible hair when you take your hat off after a few hours? Just that, I know its polite to take your hat off in most restaurants but what if you're a woman like me with moderately...
