Excellent article thanks Foofoogal. And I'll agree with it 100%. So much of what makes women sexy/attractive/charismatic is attitude, an enthusiasm for life and interest in others. Lucky for me that although I'm staring down the barrel of 40 my hubby says that he finds me more attractive...
I guess a lot of this purely comes down to logistics and available time to beautify yourself. If I tried to do all my beautifying routines without hubby seeing, I'd have to stay up til 1 am and get up at 4am! Hubby doesn't usually go to bed til 11-12ish and gets up at 5am, we both work 40hr...
got these two dresses at a local op shop
Plus this little book at the local market, it is missing the first few pages but otherwise in good condition but only cost me $4
A pic from inside section titled "Renovate and Remake"
I'm a bit confused now....I thought the subject here was not so much about walking around like a slob, but putting a veil over the effort that goes into walking around looking fabulous! There is a big difference between a woman who no longer cares about her appearance to the one that hides the...
All the time! Then again we've known each other for nearly 20 years and once a man sees a woman give birth, I don't think anything can shock him lol. While it's nice to be nicely turned out, it's more for me than anything else, whilst my hubby gets to enjoy the benefits, however I have no...
I just wish I could stop the feathering particularly on my top lip. (Stopping smoking I'm sure would help....:o ) I do the liner and powdering through a tissue, reapply and blot thing, but with really red lippy it always feathers, not the other colours though. Maybe it's just not as noticable...
Oh My Goodness, I have these....well almost, mine have a black toe as well but the shape is exactly the same. All leather but mine cost me $130 in Melbourne Australia.
Bad news for me too, sizes are all too small for my clodhoppers, pity cause I love these
Pics of new cardys
Sorry about the humungous size of the pics. The first two are my "new" ones, just a couple of easily repaired moth holes and stitch down a couple of beads and they are in beautiful condition, lining all intact too.
bit blurry but you get the idea
And this is my old one...
Brooksie, what is dryerell? I've googled and all I come up with is dryer venting systems lol If you can describe the product maybe there is a similar product here in Australia...
50's beaded cardigans
I've had several 50's beaded cardigans for about 20years and just last weekend found a couple of beauties, I'd forgotten how beautiful and versatile they are.
I am wondering if anyone knows any historical information about them (I know they were mainly made/beaded in...
set pattern
I have no clue how this is going to look considering my drawing skills, let me know if it doesn't make sense or needs more explaining
basically I use two foam rollers on the front, and two rows of four at the back. At the back I put one row of pincurls above the rollers. My...
ok my hair today
and the back...ish couldn't reach very well
excuse the odd expression I seem to get when concentrating on trying to get a decent shot of the hair lol
oh by the way, I haven't touched it since 6.30am this morning, as it's now 7.30ish pm...not to bad a set if I...
Do a search on google, I know there is a site somewhere that you can (for a price) download a pic of yourself and try all sorts of hairstyles on it. There is a free option where you choose the shape of your face and do the same thing.

I love short...
The hair I can wear lol just not the clothes so well, having a D cup bust, small waist and broad hips does horrible things to the hang of 20's style clothing. I lean towards the 40's these days as it suits my figure better and we do swing dancing (does include the 20's charleston though...) so...
I'm 5'2" and hubby is 6'1", but I've nearly always preferred tall dark & handsome lol Nearly always wear some form of heel if I don't I feel like I'm waddling. I don't really notice being short until in a group of really tall friends. I'm long waisted so short legged, my dad calls it ducks...
oh the sheer beauty of these outfits all you girls have collected is just mind blowing! I love the look of the twenties it's just not a particularly good look on me lol 5'2" hourglass figure that I have.
I love the Phryne Fisher books and artwork. The descriptions of the clothing and...
It reminds me very much of a dress I had as a child in the 70's, very similar fabric pattern, child's version with an empire line. My mum made it for me and it had orange smiley face buttons....I loved that dress and wore it til it was so tight I could barely move.
Memory lane, mum made a...
ok I have black extremely long lashes, I can't wear glasses without the separate nose pieces otherwise they sit too close to my face and my lashes hit the glass. I only mascara the outside half of my uppper lashes if that makes sense one layer with miranesse mascara, it is the best mascara I've...
