    Vintage or Repro Hats?

    I don't mean to derail a thread here, but my mom just purchased a 'crownless' straw hat from an estate sale for me, and it's decorated with cherries & other fake fruits--my question is, is this appropriate to wear to daytime events, like the OP said? Would it be okay to wear it with, say, one of...

    Show us your hair do's....

    I have a question for you ladies...not sure this is the right place for it but how do you get your sets to stay in place after you brush them? I've tried and tried but the curls always end up flipping out and rearranging themselves into ringlets after about 30 minutes or so. Is it just a matter...

    petroleum jelly?

    I use petroleum jelly all the time as a makeup remover and facial moisturizer. So does my mother. Apparently the original cast used to swear by the stuff.

    Q for ladies who shampoo less than daily

    I usually wash my hair once or twice a week with shampoo and maybe every other week I do a co-wash to keep things soft and shiny. I tried doing co-washes all the time but it left my hair a bit greasy-looking and without volume. Coconut oil has become my new favorite thing for hair though--I...

    What, to you, is glamour/glamorous?

    Apologies if this is already a thread, I did a search with no results. What qualities constitute glamour to you? And I'm talking both outwardly and inwardly. Is the golden era inherently glamorous? What, specifically? Are there any characters in classic film that you think are inherently...

    New Ladies and Gents Step Forward

    I love anything from the late 30s to the early 60s. I love historical fashion in general XP When I first started wearing vintage I was really into the 50s but for the past little while I've found myself really drawn to the 40s. Maybe it's because lately I've been on a 1940s movie kick. :P...

    What sparked your fascination with the "Golden Era"?

    That's the phrase I was searching for! I can't remember how many times I've been branded with 'old soul'--sometimes nicely, sometimes snarkily. It's lovely to be in similar company here! :)

    What sparked your fascination with the "Golden Era"?

    I grew up watching old movies as well as new, so I have to say it was the movies...more specifically, the clothes in the movies! I've always loved clothes and dressing up and was fascinated by the pretty dresses in the old films, so unlike the clothing in modern movies. Plus the old films were...

    That vintage feeling

    For me it's a feeling of deep security, belonging, 'rightness' if you will...that freedom from worry and burden that you have as a little kid. Which is kind of weird, because as a little kid my feet were very firmly planted in the late 20th century. It almost reminds me of the feeling you get...

    For the seamstresses out there...

    A bit late to the party, but here... :D *How long have you been sewing? Almost 8 years. *How did you learn to sew? I found a free, printable doll dress pattern on the internet and followed the instructions. Then I got a book about pattern drafting from the library and made doll clothes...
