    Vintage Leather Shoe Help

    Mary- I don't claim to know anything about vintage shoes, and I'm just as in the dark as you are about mine! But I can tell you this: If a doctor made a diagnosis on you that you didn't like or didn't think was correct, wouldn't you go and get a second opinion? Find another cobbler! If one...

    I saw that one on EvaDress too, and I think that's the one we may have to go w/. I'd love it for myself, but she's a little self conscious.

    I'm using the white top and black skirt for my bridesmaids. I'm doing the top in white charmuese and the skirt and sash in turquoise dupioni. Then I'm going to be doing a white swing coat to match because my wedding is in January. I love this pattern!

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Sort of :offtopic: ... Where is a good place to get true vintage shoes- NOT on ebay? And for a reasonable price. I'm not looking for reproduction either. I've used up most of my resources and I'm looking for some new ones. Any hidden gems out there? Thanks ladies!

    My Dog Chewed My Heels!

    I did something similar to JupitersDarling with a pair of my shoes- unfortunately no pic though. I had gotten my heel stuck inside of a grate I was forced to walk over and it took a small chunk of leather off of my heel. I found a couple other small pulls in the leather as well. I bought a few...

    The Art of Shaving

    I'm a big fan of the Mach 3 as it's a mens' razor and built for cutting tougher hair than women tend to grow, so it tends to last much longer. I shave about once a week and I have a strange ritual about it. Lather up w/ hair conditioner in the shower and then turn off the water. Open the curtain...

    Concealable purses

    We use them in the wedding industry for a couple things. There are the garter ones so the bride or bridesmaids can keep their $$, lipstick, keys etc close to them. But then we also use them in the waistband of the dresses for diabetic machines that girls need to keep on them at all times.
