From forest to sea foam to mint to emerald to bottle and beyond, all the way to those with one foot in blue, like teal, turquoise and petroleum...

    Guess what's in the glass!

    One of the things that's vintage about me is my love of alcohol. However, I'm by no means a connoisseur of glass shapes etc. I drink my standard rum & coke, gin & tonic, and southern comfort & gingerale. If I'm in a bar I might order a mojito or a cocktail of the night. I love pictures of stars...

    Old Hollywood Stars: Before and After

    We have a Before and After-thread for ourselves, but what about our idols? Do we know what they looked like before their Hollywood make-overs?

    the leopard can never change its spots

    I've become mildly obsessed with leopard print as of late, and I can't seem to get enough of it. I know it was very popular in the 50s and 60s, but what about before then? How far back does this craving for animal print spots go? Please share leo pics and fill me in on the history! Jackie...

    Ladies Belts & Buckles: A Primer

    A History of Belts I've searched the FL for a proper belts thread and found naught. If this thread already exists, please merge it. Does anyone know a good site with a history of belts?

    Elderly Reactions To Vintage

    I was daydreaming today and my curiosity was awakened: How do elderly people react when you dress vintage? I mean the ones that were teenagers or young adults in the 50's or 40's. What kind of comments have you gotten from the elegant old ladies and gentlemen? What have you been wearing when...

    Lucille Bremer or "the Bump"

    I watched "Till The Clouds Roll By" yesterday and tried to do my hair like Lucille Bremer today, without any luck. How do you succeed with the Beautiful Bump? I set my hair with the largest hot rollers at the bottom/ back of my head. When I took them out I teased the hair underneath and...

    Do you use conditioner?

    I attended a 40's hairstyling course and was told NOT to use any conditioner before setting my hair. The rules were: Wash hair with shampoo only Set dry hair with setting lotion (using carmen curlers, hot rollers) I guess this is to get the right dry and light hair quality that will hold a...
