    Sara Jessica Parker's Hat

    Really, she was much cuter when she was younger. I don't think she's ever been "pretty" but cute yes. And I'm not sure if she's had any plastic surgery but she seems very natural and that is what I like about her. Plus in interviews she seems like she'd be areally nice person. I don't mind...

    Vintage Disapointment

    God knows that's true because none of my friends are into vintage fashion. I think sometimes people think they're being original by being into vintage fashion and they get miffed if they see someone else wearing "their style".

    Sara Jessica Parker's Hat

    As always I'll probably be chatised for actually giving my opinion but since you asked that's what I'm giving. Someone needs to shoot the hat to put it out of it's misery and buy poor Jessica a hair brush. And yes I actually like Jessica and yes I would tell her that to her face. "Dearest...

    Tiny curling iron - 1/2"?

    I don't brush out my curls. I use my fingers or a lift. But it makes nice curls on my hair. Matter of fact if I work at it enough I cn get almost a Shirley Temple look with it.

    10 overrated classics

    "Being in love means never having to say you're sorry" Wretch, gag, ewwwwwww... I always hated Love Story,especially that line. Even when I was single I hated that movie now that I'm married I hate it even more. Love means having the guts to say you're sorry even if you didn't do...

    Can I refill a vintage lipstick tube with a new lipstick bullet?

    Well mine's not 40's vintage anyway. My grandma got it for me when I started wearing makeup as a "young ladies gift". So it's circa 1984ish? It's cute. It's gold and has white butterflies on the lid. A little scratched up. Nice and heavy. I can't tell you how many times I've dropped it and...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I wore my nerw green dress today to my friends house. His mom and dad were there and his dad say "You know something? You're a fine looking woman." His mom was impressed that I sew my own clothes. My mother in law thinks that's cool too since not too many ladies our age still sew.

    Hey guys? I have a question.....

    A friend of mine recently bought a bowler and it has a little pearl pin in the band bow. It looks like a corsage pin and we were wondering what that was for? Is it just something that was left there from making it or does it serve a purpose?[huh] Forgive our ignorance but I don't think it's...

    Alas, so do I. Gets me in trouble sometimes but makes me on helluva good cook.

    Show Us Your Pedigree! The Heritage Thread.

    That's so funny because my dad was always griping about my mom being a "hard headed German". He was worse than she was.

    Can I refill a vintage lipstick tube with a new lipstick bullet?

    My compact has a little screen for loose powder in it. The mirror gets a little dusty but other than that it's fine.

    Ladies with cigarettes

    I forgot about this thread and I forgot that I wanted to say something else. :offtopic: Not that smoking is good for you. We know that it's not. It's also not good for your teeth. BUT it is not the biggest cause of gum disease. Poor oral hygien and nutrition are the biggest cause. Now...

    Turbans

    I don't know I think I associate them with my mom's friend who had cancer. And I don't think they would look right on me. Matter of fact I have trouble with hats of any kind looking like they belong on my head.

    A little Swing for old time cops!

    Not around here they don't. Just in the bigger cities like Dayton and Columbus. I used to date this one cop from a small town (very rural) and they could choose between a ball cap that said "police" (tacky), a campaign or sheriff style hat. So I got sick of seening this fine looking guy wearing...
