    Pomade suggestion

    I have the brand "Got2Be". I haven't used it that much recently since I left it at my parent's home. I think it has a strong smell to it that I don't care for much, but it is relatively cheap and I got it at my local CVS. It still did what it was supposed to though.

    Show us your hair do's....

    Have you tried using a pomade afterwards? I find that that helps with frizzy situations. Or sometimes you just need to keep brushing.

    Thank you! In my opinion, I need to get more height in front though.

    Ladies show us your best.

    Thank you. They are vintage! I posted them in a thread that was about vintage eyewear. My mom hates them. Haha.

    Socks for Saddle Shoes?

    As much as I don't like American Apparel...I might have to get those because they are literally perfect!

    Socks for Saddle Shoes?

    I told my mom that I wanted a pair and she has been looking too! I tried Etsy again last night and didn't find ones that were frilly enough for me.

    I think I got my pin curls to look decent this time around. I used nothing on my hair because I am out of setting mousse and gel! I just used hairspray once I brushed the curls out. I have the straightest hair EVER. There is no curl to it naturally at all. Please excuse my no makeup face. I have...

    Show us your vintage home!

    In the home I posted above, we had a pink tile, pink toilet, pink sink, pink tub bathroom upstairs. My parents got rid of all that pink! They did get a very lovely vintage inspired sink to go in there once they finish renovating it. Things kind of stopped a few years back when my dad didn't like...

    Socks for Saddle Shoes?

    Okay, I am having trouble finding a nice pair of socks to wear with my saddle shoes or even my flats since girls wore socks with their flats back in the day. I want basically the kind of socks I had as a little girl: socks with a lacey trim. Wouldn't that be too cute with saddle shoes...

    I don't know why people don't post in this thread more often! I love sharing my vintage style!! This is one of my many dresses from Mill Street Vintage on Etsy. Her stuff is lovely, but a bit pricey. This is a dress that I purchased at a local shop. I have worn it only twice because it has a...

    Looks like I will be bumping up this thread... Anyways, I am a crafty gal! My specialty is cross stitch! Finished last year and making into a pillow for my fiance's two year old sister: Gift for my fiance's dad and stepmom: Probably most proud of this. I made the pattern myself! This was...

    Thinking about a tattoo, but is it what good girls did in the 1940's?

    My tattoo isn't really an old school tattoo. I really don't care for that style, yet that seemed to be what most of the tattoo artists in town specialize in! I got this tattoo last January. It was seriously the most painful experience of my life. This is my first and only tattoo and he started...

    What's something modern you won't miss when it becomes obsolete?

    Oh my gosh! I think I might have just died laughing. :D

    Went to LOTS of car shows as a kid. It exposed me to classic cars early on. I think it made me want to have all sorts of cars. I'm still young and poor. One day I will have the money to buy at least one of those cars and fix it up! My dad and I will sit at home and watch the car auctions on...

    Show us your vintage home!

    This is my parent's home. It is pre-1900. We bought it off of my uncle that lost the abstract to the house. We only know that it is pre-1900 because one town over there is a house that is built off of its blueprints and it was built in 1900. The house is very, very run down. So far my parents...

    Hair color advice needed

    Wow! That looks amazing! You did that yourself? I'm always afraid I will completely mess up if I dye my own hair.

    I have a '94 Dodge Shadow. I just ripped the headliner down when it started to fall. Haha. But now I have scratched my knuckles on it several times when reaching up. :( If I had it my way, I'd be the owner of a '67 Austin Healey sprite car in black, a '65 Mustang in red with white interior...

    What era of dress or style doyou prefer?

    I'm a 50's gal. I love, love, love New Look style dresses! I got my glasses after falling in love with Marilyn's in How to Marry a Millionaire. Oddly, my favorite film star is Rita Hayworth and my favorite film of her's is Cover Girl, which was in the late 40's. I seriously wish I could look...

    What's something modern you won't miss when it becomes obsolete?

    Ugh. My fiance will wear pajama pants in public. I have told him that it embarasses me. I have told him several times. He must look like an idiot standing next to me, all dolled up in 50's attire. I wonder how many people have seen us and thought to themselves, "Why is she with him?" Trust me...
