    Those New Yorkers!!!

    I do a great deal of menswear styling- Thom Brown definately has a "hold" on the uber fashion conscious set of males in this town. Any other NYC person will agree that the men here- (and probably even more-so in London) wear their clothing tightttttt. There is a common joke with a few...

    Getting Started, Wardrobe Staples?

    You know, Only recently did I do a complete "overhaul" of my vintage wardrobe, I've been wearing vintage for 13 years- often I think it happens to us girls, because if you want to wear vintage- (and not inspired- but more on that later) Its harder to accumulate due to its rarity and/or size...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    I don't know about any of you other gals, but I'm a foodie. Right now I'm pouring over Gourmet magazines "southern cooking" collector's edition, and planning my recipes. Cooking and Baking, are such a huge part of my life, that even when I noticed I was ::ahem:: gently expanding my size 6...

    Lead in Lipstick!

    make your own red! I think its definately something to think about. I was a makeup artist for a long time, and my fellow artists would always ask one another to pick up various Chanel lipsticks for each other when we were working in Paris-because, the formulations were different than in the...

    VintageGoth?

    I posted this in "whos in your avatar" thread, but I felt the subject matter may appeal to my fabulously 'dark and gloomy' vintage buddies in this thread and the photos are most certainly of the "dark and sinister" variety. <<though I seem I to change my avatar every few minutes. My...

    VintageGoth?

    I LOVE KLAUS NOMI! that's right up my alley. I love cabaret music, synth pop, etc etc. I had no idea who he was until a couple years ago, when my friend Daniel introduced me to him, and I was gobsmacked- basically because he was a) a german pastry chef b) so amazingly costumed c) sang like a...

    Vintage eyebrow shapes

    Hi Pigeon Toe! I think you have the right idea! From a makeup artist prospective, (my former job before launching fully into vintage clothing/shoe-dom) would to pencil them or even dye them not black, but a dark brown- ash if your hair tone is black. Unless you are doing a really "done" look...

    VintageGoth?

    Hear Hear Ms Brill! Thats why I get smug joy when those exact snooty people "too good to shop thrift or antique malls" (new york city is crawling with them) pay $500.00 for a vintage dress, I bought for $10.00! ::maniacal laughter::

    Favourite Scents

    Scents by Alexis- for the sophistciated femme fatale I was always a fan of Creed's Spring Flowers and Silver Mountain Water (even though I think that's supposed to be a male fragrance) If you wanna go even a little bit more obscure- Try Alexis Karl. She's a sweetheart and custom scented...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Yeah I'd agree, the bottom is very comparable with many dress patterns I have from like- 46-47- it had old store tags on it (though I'm not sure what I did with them now?) and I remember it had something on the tag that said " victory wear" something like that. so perhaps it was right after...

    VintageGoth?

    M Tatterscratch- you are not the only one with cemetary love! I love you comments, and I agree-, I think some people are just born with a love of the beauty of decay- or at least the dark romanticism of it all- You know its funny- but I still have several goth-y hobbies that I keep up. I...

    VintageGoth?

    ME! I was a 14 year old Cure & Siouxsie and the Banshees listening to goth girl- one day stumbled upon some photos of Bettie Page- around 15- and cut my then dyed black hair with bangs-worked that look until I was around 20. My parents had vintage style- but I got more and more into...
