Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings
I was wondering the same thing.... I'm dying to get a good girdle... I don't want to spend much and don't know where to start... I have several corsets... but they're not very suitable for every day wear. This thread is proving to be a big help though!- Miss Caroline

Are there ladies present who have non-retro bf's, husbands?
my boyfriend is into vintage... but not as much as I am. He has a few pieces, but he's more of a rockabilly. He has vintage hair and I bought him a hat for his birthday which he has barely taken off. :D hee! I think it's alot easier for girls to get away with dressing vintage than men, so my...- Miss Caroline

about difficulty to wear vintage when you're 5'97" tall like me !
I'm 5'9 and a size 12/14 (uk) and I can not find any vintage to fit me. I recently bought a vintage pattern thinking that if I can't fit into origonal vintage I'll make my own. Fail. I had to take it back because 50 years ago a size 12 was about a size 8/10. So I had to take it back to the...- Miss Caroline

Hair Falling Out?
My hair seems to be thinning quite a bit at the front top bit of my head, at the hair line above my forehead. I've noticed it get thinner over the past few years. I also have alopecia areata, but that (thankfully) always seems to leave a bald spot somewhere it can easily be disguised. But the...- Miss Caroline

Show us your hair do's....
He was wearing his *first ever* suit. I took him shopping the day before. He's very into the vintage style and owns lots of bits and pieces but he's oten too shy to wear it. Mostly he wears 501's, chucks and a band tshirt :-). he has quite a few good cowboy shirts! But he was most definately...- Miss Caroline

Show us your hair do's....
I went to a wedding at the weekend. I had a massive nightmare with my hair in the morning but think it turned out okay. I got my hair cut recently and am finding it a bit short to do rolls and anything elaborate so I just set it. I'm not very expirienced with pin curls and sets, so all things...- Miss Caroline

Halloween costumes!
I'm a bit of a fan of dressing up. I want to be Nurse Gladys Emmanuel from Open All Hours, but trying to find a good 1960's nurses costume is hard.... These are a few of the costumes I've done, from a Vince Ray Pin up zombie, to Queen of Hearts. :-)- Miss Caroline

What's Your Fav Hairspray?
I tend to use Silverkrin Maximum hold. Probably because it's the cheapest. It holds like glue... but one thing I don't understand about hairsprays. I very nearly bought elnette yesterday, but then it prides its self on brushing out... but what I don't understand, is that you're using hairspray...- Miss Caroline
