It was a great episode of The Collectors - (but I'm a bit biased) and was very privlidged that Nicole shared her moment in the sun with me. (yes that was me in the swimsuits.)
I'll have a review of Nicole's Love Vintage book on the blog this week, along with a podcast interview. I'll post a...
THANKS!
Thanks ladies for your entries.
I've had an overwhelming response to this competition and it has been such a joy to read everyone's pieces.
I've posted the results today, but I need your help in choosing the final winner.
There is a 24 hour window (from now) to get your votes in on...
Hi All!
Yes, this is a bit late notice but I'm hoping you've already heard about this one. (Sorry my account kept locking me out!) I want to make sure everyone gets a chance at this great prize pack, cause we all love getting cool stuff for free. :D
I'm currently running a PERFECT VINTAGE...
My you are all so inspiring! I was reading this thread at 5am this morning and decided to overhaul the contents of mine. I've almost finished now,and have separate drawers for all my gloves, glasses, belts and other lovely things.
You have to love a community that can motivate you at that time...
Antipodean tears!
I'll be voting for you too Jack.
I have to say that I am seriously disappointed that the comp isn't open internationally! You know I'd enter in a heart beat. At least they are using my tutorials to help get the contestants dressed to the nines... so it is nice to be...
New First Time Style
I had a vague idea of a 1940's office girl look I wanted to achieve, so i did a little experimenting the other morning before work. This is what I came up with. It was difficult to get good detail in dark hair, so I have over exposed these shots to hopefully give you more...
The Lindy Charm School
The Lindy Charm School is coming to Melbourne in August. They will be running workshops for ladies of all ages over two days. Teaching hair, makeup and how to buy and wear vintage, for all those who need a helping hand.
The girls do fabulous hair and can help you get...
I'm also a Top Lashes Only girl. If I ever do the bottom, I only do the outside corner lashes. Even without problems with smudging, I find that mascara on the bottom lashes causes the shadows in that area to be darker and make me look tired. I also agree with the lounger who mentioned lining...
AND THE WINNER IS...
The time has come for this fabulous contest to come to an end and our winner to be announced. Thank you so much to everyone who entered for all your efforts and making this competition such a success.
It was a very tough choice and there was some fierce competition, but...
Darlng an all - yes you can enter more than once. The deadline was 4th May, but due to pressure from the gallery, I have extended it until Friday 8th with the Winner announced on Monday.
If you have any 11th hour entries, SEND THEM IN NOW. Lots of vintage booty on the line. :)
We can't possibly start this thread without mentioning that iconic television series, "The Sullivans". Following the life of a Melbourne family during WW2.
Style Tips
Even though you chaps are dong such a superlative job with this competition, I thought I'd let you know about today's post of new Don Draper style tips over on the blog. And for the ladies you can also find a section on Joan and Betty too.
There is still a week and a half to get...
While I was out to lunch today with the Mr. there was a young girl about 13 sitting across from us. She was sitting there with a woman who appeared to be her mother (judging by the age difference). The Mr. was quite horrified when he pointed out to me that the girl in question, wearing a short...
Having had this look myself for a number of years now I can tell you this:
Always have it done by a professional - Melted hair or burnt scalp is not a good look!
Be prepared for a few treatments before it is white and not a caramel, brassy colour.
Be prepared for touch ups every 5 weeks...
I avoided Twitter for the longest time, just as I have avoided Facebook and Myspace. But a few short weeks ago the possibilities of REALLY utilising Twitter were revealed to me. As a Blogger / Writer and Model by trade (well these days anyway), Twitter is proving to be an invaluable tool for...
