    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I know that in some places it can be slander even if it is true, because of the damage to reputation. But that really is bonkers.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    My grandmother didn't believe Liberace was gay.

    The general decline in standards today

    I think that is a wonderful approach - unfortunately not one the Australian university system is on board with. You get the marks to get into a course, you do the set units for that degree, with maybe a couple of choices of units along the way and then you get spat out the other end with a...

    Good heavens you have some shoulders on you!

    Facebook anybody?

    Like you, I keep them separate! I have had no qualms about turning down friend requests from people at work. We're in a situation in my job at the moment where a lot of stuff is being decided based on who has slept with whom and a formal grievance has been filed between two colleagues who used...

    Military Fakes- sometimes you just have to share the joke...

    I suppose you can't be done for impersonating an officer if no one in the world believes you are an officer!

    The general decline in standards today

    This is really important. One of my nieces is currently doing a hairdressing apprenticeship. She did well at school and could have gone to university, but why on earth should she, when all she has ever wanted to do is be a hairdresser? It's a great job - very flexible if she has a family down...

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    The black & white ones I think are known as spectator shoes or co-respondent shoes. I believe because gentlemen wearing them are likely to turn up as the offending party in infidelity cases. So I should hope you get some good reactions!

    Loungers' Pets

    Yeah, Urchin doesn't see the point of other cats either. She gets herself into knots if she sees them on the other side of the street. We're hoping one day she will tolerate a puppy!

    Vintage belly dancing anyone?

    Yup - 2 hours of classes a week, and an extra 2 hour practice session with a dance buddy every second or third week. I feel a bit lost if I don't get to my classes! I would probably have gone postal by now without them.

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    Having run into Edward on a dark street, I can say with some authority that he does not look menacing.

    Have you tried taking a photo of your own lower back? It's tricky!

    Does wearing vintage Get you noticed by the opposite sex?

    My husband finds it very entertaining when I do that dance!

    Witch Hazel

    I bought some "soothing" eyedrops this morning, and after I bought them I noticed that they contain witch hazel. Now I am too scared to use them, because I think they will sting!

    Military Fakes- sometimes you just have to share the joke...

    Surely re-enactors pride themselves on the accuracy of their costumes? None of these people get points for that! So conmen and nutters, I would think. Maybe its related to Munchausen syndrome?

    Facebook anybody?

    I've taken the plunge and joined facebook - there were too many events etc that were only being advertised on facebook pages, and a lot of my friends only put their baby photos up there. At this stage I am keeping it only to people I know moderately well in real life, but I have made a lovely...

    Vindication for the lady in an apron hand-washing dishes

    I'll take my chances with the potentially fatal fungus. I love my dishwasher!

    Does vintage clothing attract a rude/violent response?

    Well, I'm a woman, which I think is partly insulating. And I am far too self-absorbed most of the time to notice if other people are looking at or commenting on me. It'd take a pretty direct confrontation for me to realise something was going on, and most of the snide people are far too weak and...
