Hollywood thrift stores
People love the thrifts stores in L.A. I am always the first to arrive now with my little basket because it is so hard here. What makes me angry are the dealers-they will try every trick in the book to get what you want to buy but saw it first. One time I had my son with...

Motherhood
Oh, you are going to love motherhood and living a vintage lifestyle. I cherished getting vintage baby clothes for my son and making what I could not buy. Shoes were hard. I did his room in cowboy and Indians. Now my "baby" is 13 and he has embraced the vintage life. His friends all...
My all time favorite
My favorite cold cream is Pond's for dry skin. It makes my skin feel butter soft. I use a washcloth and warm (not hot) water. I have been using it for years and I think it made my skin look younger.
New dame on the boards
