    Shave of the Day

    Thank you!

    How does a girl keep warm?

    This is actually not as bad as it sounds! I do it sometimes and it always works out well. I wear a thick-ish, no shorter than mid calf-length pleated skirt. Underneath, I wear some very thin pants (think leggings), then I have these fantastic knee socks from target that are a similar color as my...

    Shave of the Day

    Hello Gentlemen, I'm looking into getting a swell new shaving kit for my boyfriend for Christmas. He goes for sort of a Gable/Powell mustache, but has trouble with it occasionally, therefore I think he would enjoy a shaving kit. Could any of you gentlemen recommend a kit that's helpful for...

    Who Would You Have Liked to See in the Role?

    I've never understood why Gable never did any Noir. There's just no reason for it! He would have been perfect in a noir.

    ....Although I'm a ditz and it doesn't look like anyone who is posting in here actually lives anywhere near LA .. Oh well, maybe one of them will stumble in.

    The Middy Thread

    Yes! Question! Does anyone know who cuts a good middy in the Los Angeles area?? I went to Frenchy's thinking they would know what I was talking about, but to my surprise, they don't know a whole lot more about vintage hair than other salons. I did my best to explain it and they did their best...

    Speaking of Nick Charles, what was he always drinking?

    Did anyone else go to the Thin Man series at The Cinefamily last year? I served up a giant batch of Manhattans and Martinis and got the whole audience sauced up and very ready for a night of Thin Man movies. It was a fun night!

    We deliver! - Liquor brought straight to your home.

    Oh man, I remember Pink Dot. It that still around? In high school, my friends and I heard a rumor that they didn't card. On multiple occasions, when we would be at somebody's house without parents, we would sit around talking about calling pink dot and argue over who would do it and then we...

    Gin Lovers Unite!

    I often refer to myself as "a gin guy" (though it gets me odd looks, being female) Hendricks martini, extra dirty.

    Juicers - Set The Juice Loose!

    Oh! I got a Jack Lalanne electric juicer for my birthday last year! It's a bitch to clean, but it makes such fabulous cocktails.

    Angostura bitters dearth

    Grew up in Santa Monica. We have a love-hate relationship. I currently reside in lovely Koreatown. Just two blocks of the beautiful Wiltern Theater. I get to walk by it every day and try to imagine Gable standing outside on the eve of it's opening.

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Oh goodness, I am totally obsessed with The Office right now. I just recently finished watching every episode in order, MAN that show is great. I finally get why it's been on the air for so long and why everybody loves it so much. I have to start from the beginning to really get a show. Jim...

    Twilight

    I think Twilight could be putting some potentially dangerous ideas in the heads of young, impressionable girls. They are reading this stuff and falling "madly in love" with this Edward character and thinking that he's "the perfect boyfriend". If I had a young daughter, I would not want her...

    Thanks! All of the family photos are giving me some great ideas! My grandmother has some great ones, but she's all the way in New Jersey and I've not yet had the chance to make copies for myself.

    Vintage Youth Fashion

    I'm working on a project that involves figuring out what girls around the age of twelve wore in the 1920's-40's. I'm researching, but I was wondering if anyone had any helpful links, images, articles? It would be quite helpful!
