    STOLEN JEWELRY - Peel your eyes!

    Hello Ladies of the Lounge - I hope you can help me to keep a look out for the items in this picture. It's a long shot but with many people watching Ebay, Etsy and Craigslist, we might catch them. They also stole 2 flatscreen monitors, 2 guitars, and worst, a Jaguar XJ6. So sad. I will alert...

    Got small size formalwear?

    Hello gentlemen - My nephew, who is 12, has expressed a desire for the Monopoly Man outfit, for a school play, and then for Steampunk role-playing use after! So I am on the hunt for either the striped trouser/cutaway/ascot look, or white tie and tails would work well too. Or even a frock coat...

    Cup of tea?

    I know we had a thread on tea... and I cannot find it! If it wasn't in Connoisseur it should have been. Amusing rap on YouTube about tea - I think this guy must be one of us! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eELH0ivexKA&feature=related

    ReMix RED Size 8 Babydoll pumps!

    I have a pair - sadly, they run not wide enough for my wide feet, so even though I am truly a 6.5 EEE, only an 8 would let me into the shoe. Of course, it was stupid, it really doesn't fit. The arch doesn't match up. So if any of you want them.. give me a PM and we will talk about price. I...

Vents, either single or double, say 1970s to me in a loud voice - if you like the 70s, you probably have to live with them opening, or perhaps buy the...
