What do you do when you can't find things in the right size?
Modern dress shoes are a serious problem for me. The vintage dress shoes from my MIL who wears the same size as me, has given me, fit much better and vintage sandals fit even better. Ideally I'd wear a 35½ but we don't have half sizes here so I make do with EU36 (some foreign vintage shoes say...- Lillemor

What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?
My dad was supposed to get me that one and I was really excited about it but my dad didn't know that you're supposed to open those two-tube packages to check that what it says on the outside, is also what you'll find inside. Instead I got Love That Pink which is a nice yellow based pink that... -
What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?
I've switched from MAC's Dubonnet in amplified creme to Hang Up Cremesheen when the temperatures rose above 0+C to Lady Bug Lustre when the temperatures rose above 18C. The lighter brighter red seems to suit me when I have a "tan"/not my jaundiced winter complexion. I find that the more color... -
The Great Gatsby - Remake in the Works
I didn't like the original after reading the book so for once I'm not afraid of watching a new adaptation of a book even if there's already an older film but if they set it in another decade it'll be unwatchable to me regardless of who directs the film or who's cast.- Lillemor

How tall are you, Ladies?
I LIED ABOUT MY HEIGHT!!! Not really, but I miscalculated it and got my 147cm to be 4'10"ft when in fact I'm only about 4'8"ft (147cm = 58 minus 1/12th" aprox.). Here I was thinking that 3" heels could raise me above 5ft but they'll only make me 4'11"ft. It doesn't really matter because I've...- Lillemor

Star Trek
I got in to TNG before watching the originals. I couldn't get in to DS9 or any of the other spin offs. I recently watched a bunch of old TNG episodes on youtube and stayed up until late at night to catch as many of the old TNG episodes that some Danish station aired. I'm surprised at how many...- Lillemor

Jane Russell RIP
It was just a rolling text on our 6am news. Don't know if they'll even mention her later. Younger actors and actresses with shorter careers get more mention.:confused: I know old people die all the time but it's always a shock. Bless her soul.- Lillemor

rue, I really like that. You make me want to grow out my hair to just past shoulders again. -
Favorite Vintage Perfumes
I don't know if old fragrances are reformulated or if I'm just not accustomed to fragrances pre-70s. Most fragrances I like are from around the 1990s when I first began to use them regularly. -

Favorite Vintage Perfumes
I haven't tried it, don't know if it's still around but I'm curious about Wind Song Perfume by Prince Matchabelli because it was supposedly Patsy Cline's favorite and she's one of my favorite female singers. -
Unpopular music opinions
Agree! They're overrated. I'd started typing when I saw that someone else called them overrated as well. I don't dislike everything from the mid 60s-70s just The Beatles.:p I don't mind the lack of originality, hardly any of my idols wrote their own music or invented something new, but at... -

Don't worry, it's not bad down here, but then I've never known differently.- Lillemor

What are you listening to?
I never tire of Patti Page's voice. Love After Midnight. Funny how after searching on youtube for Andy Williams I find that he's covered many of the same songs as Patti Page. I enjoy listening to both equally which surprised me because I usually prefer which ever version I heard first. -
Unpopular music opinions
How could I forget THE CARS When I was a pre-teen I told someone I liked it because it had a genreless sophisticated appeal. Don't even know what I meant by that. -

Poll: Where do Fedora Loungers live?
People always ask me if I miss CA or regret moving back to Denmark. I miss some of the hikes, picnic places, and cap areas though I don't miss camping in itself but people underestimate the beauty of the quick changes nature in East Jylland. It may not be any where as spectacular as most...- Lillemor

Unpopular music opinions
Someone forgot to tell me that's embarrassing. I don't own any music by them but I've listened to their tapes (you all do remember what that is, right?!) in the past. The Limeliters, Bill Monroe, Hall & Scruggs, Ralph Stanley, Ricky Shaggs, folk singer Jimmie Rodgers, Gary Numan, Depeche... -
Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters
Thanks, I've just learnt something new. I've never heard of hipsters before. This is the only thing I can for certain recognize to some degree in myself and I think it's a very good thing! I don't necessarily rebel but I certainly am consciously present in this world, which you would be...- Lillemor

I just watched Avatar with my boys because two of them are actually under 10 and I didn't think they should be watching it alone.- Lillemor

What is your favorite red lipstick brand/shade?
After having trouble getting in to my MAC Dubonnet in Amplified Creme, it's now my go-to-lipstick. It seems like the first few layers of MAC lipsticks are a bit smudgy/runny and weird in color. This is my 4th MAC lipstick and 4th formula and I had the experience with 3 others. I've not tried...
