    Where to start?

    How do you know you can't do it if you never tried? Go to superdrug, buy yourself some cheap rubbish, lock yourself in the bathroom and have a play. It's like fingerpainting on your face. Some days I come out looking like a drag queen that's been ridden hard and put away wet, and some days I...

    The Citroën 2CV

    My aunt used to have a Gitane blue 2CV. Not comfy for driving over country potholes, but very, very cute!

    Easter Cocktails 2011

    The Easter Bonnet sounds lovely! The rest not so much. Personally I will be drinking white wine spritzers spiked with a little homemade 44.

    From Scratch

    They look really good! I know what you mean though - I made some feta pull-aparts the other day and we ate so many we couldn't eat our dinner.

    Dita Von Teese

    I really appreciate Dita's espadrille love. I do NOT appreciate the fact that some labels are now charging upwards of £90 for them! Do you think I could write and ask her to stop making them look so good?

    When can you call your style vintage and when not to?

    Well said. But it is extremely hard not to worry when you are a little bit self conscious and you read comments judging others for wearing Stop Staring etc. It takes a while to get comfy in your skin in whatever form of vintageness you adopt.

    Vintage style "exercise" clothes?

    Well played! That coffee is yours if I ever get the chance. And their XXL is a 42" hip which is WAY too small for me. It's disincentivising to exercise when you can't buy exercise clothes!

    Vintage style "exercise" clothes?

    *BUMP* I was sent a catalogue by this company the other day http://www.sweatybetty.com/ - in the introduction they say that the range is inspired by 1930s English beach holidays. If any of you can find a garment in here that you think is 1930s inspired, I'll buy you a Coke.

    How Would You Feel If...

    I'd invite you in for coffee and a piece of cake. How I felt about that kind of approach would pretty much depend on what kind of day I was having. Some days I am so far inside my own head that I resent any intrusions. Other days I am more open and would welcome it, or would make an approach.

    This generation of kids...

    I am dumbstruck. A STRANGER gave your child sweets because she was having a tantrum?! That is completely outrageous.

    What A Girl Scout Knew In 1923

    I think old-fashioned mattresses were a lot thinner, so I suspect you would actually manhandle it outside and hang it over the porch or something. Great way to kill dustmites, actually.

    Wanna Meet a Lounger?

    No offence taken! Different people post for different reasons, and some people just aren't comfortable taking an on-screen interaction into real life. That being said... ... I totally agree with this! Many of my closest real-life friends are people I originally met on the internet. It was a...

    Leaving home to find work

    Hope it works out! After being unemployed for 18 months, my husband ended up getting a job up north - he's away from Monday to Friday. And I now appreciate the drover's wife's lament "Friday night too tired, Saturday night too drunk, Sunday too far away".

    Like, You know

    Apparently the room at the Oscars where the celebrities are given their ridiculously indulgent goodie-bags is called "The Gifting Suite". In my family we refer to the Pacific Highway (in NSW) as the Specific Highway. But we do know the difference.

    Like, You know

    That gets compounded for me when people say (and write) "He should of went to the store" it's not of, it's have, he should have gone to the store.

    "Overdressed"

    That is well said, Mr Beaumont! I totally agree with this. Looking great - by your own standard - definitely is great.

    I love her dresses, I love the sandals and I am in awe of her skin.

    "Overdressed"

    As long as I am dressed appropriately, I never feel overdressed. If I need to weed the garden, I won't wear a silk blouse and binding underclothes. If I need to walk on cobblestones, I won't wear spindly heels. If I need to bottle tomatoes, everything gets covered with an apron. I dress as...
