    Vintage Sizing

    Try JCrew. They do have their sizing running bigger than what was once the average sizing. However, their pants run in petite, regular and long. They have lots of very pretty dresses and skirts too. Banana Republic used to run well. We have a petite shoppe down the street from us, and when I was...

    Hemingway Jones Is Back From The Hospital :-)

    I must say that I'm so very happy to have Hem home!! Now I just have to convince him to take time out of his hectic schedule to relax a bit. Matters of the heart are not to be brushed aside. It is good that he now knows he has this problem, and good to know what he needs to do to make sure that...

    Loungers' Pets

    Aww Scott, I love your bull dogs!! So precious, I'm a fan of the breed:) Lady Day, your doggie is so sweet! I just want to climb on that couch and cuddle with her. She looks like she has such a sweet temperament. I love it when larger breeds think that they are small enough to sit on your...

    Hemingway Jones Is Back From The Hospital :-)

    Hi Everyone:) I spent some time with Hem this evening. He is in a much nicer room than the room he was in at the ER. His pain is better, and he is resting, which is something this hard working fella certainly needs a bit of. We still don't know exactly what is going on, but the doctors have...

    Hemingway Jones Is Back From The Hospital :-)

    Hi All, I'm writing you all to tell you that our good friend Hemingway Jones is in the hospital. Over the past 4 days he has been having chest pain and pressure that has become increasingly worse and more persistent over time. Being a typical guy, he just ignored it. But this morning it had...

    Old smells, that immeditately transport you back in time?

    Oh my that's so funny. I honestly thought that was only a northeast thing!! I went to one of these summer camps too, for many many years. Oh, the memories:eek:

    Old smells, that immeditately transport you back in time?

    Old books. When I was a kid my sister and I would sometimes go to my Grandparents house for the weekend. It was a big old colonial. One of those real solid homes with very steep, sturdy staircases. I used to stay in what was once my Aunts room. I loved this room because it was in the back of the...

    I need your help....yes, you.

    I don't have the store number, but I did go to the Barnes&Noble down the street from my house today. They did have the latest issue of Classic Style. It was in the Mens Interest section in the first row on the bottom shelf. I accidentally picked up more copies than I wanted to buy, so being that...

    Oh the Stigma with wearing seamed fully fashioned stockings!

    I actually have a kind of cute fully fashioned stocking story. Last Saturday my family had a huge birthday party for my Granny's 88th birthday. She lives in a retirement community just outside of Boston. I didn't wear vintage clothing, more like classically styled, but I did wear some vintage...

    Your most non-vintage preference or attributes ...

    HaHaHaHa!!!! That is a very good point you make!!lol And yes, I have seen a prewar dental drill, as well as other very scary looking devices that they called "dental instruments" back in the day. Amazing though, there is an instrument that we dental hygienist use called the sickle. The name says...

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Thanks for all the great shoe links ITG, I think I want to get them all. But, wanting and being able to do it are two totally different things:( I really hope that those Farryl Robin Shoes will get on Endless at some point. I hadn't been on Endless in a few months. When someone first told me...

    POLL: US members: Which Region of the US are you from

    That map certainly is strange, but at least they got New England right. I'm sure if I were from outside this region I would have been incredibly confused!!:eek: I do think the terms that they use are funny, for they aren't what we "common folks" would refer to them as. However, the government...

    Guilty of collecting....?

    Yup, I'm guilty too. I'm a collector and I have no problem calling myself a "pack rat". I can't get rid of anything! My biggest collection, after all the vintage clothing, shoes, accessories, are PEZ dispensers. The last time I checked, which was a few years ago, I had 682. I've bought a lot...

    Chocolate: A very important poll!

    I saw them at the market. I have yet to try it, but it did take a lot of willpower to walk by and not pick any up. My Mom who is a dark chocolate fanatic said it's actually pretty good. As for dark chocolate being an acquired taste, I think this is true. I couldn't stand it as a kid, but now...
