Flip flops in the white house.
My students are between the ages of 9 and 11 and I have definitely expressed the appropriateness of dress at school, if not just for safety sake. I will quote a few of the parents' responses, "Mrs. Peterson, it's the style!"- Doe Peterson

Flip flops in the white house.
This is my endless battle as a teacher. Children coming to school with pants that are hanging BELOW the rear(I'm still fascinated by how they sort of stay on) and t-shirts so long that they're almost touching their feet. They don't moan and groan anymore,but when they hit the classroom door...- Doe Peterson

Show us your vintage patterns!
I've also had great luck at flea markets. I live in Los Angeles and I have found many dealers who sell patterns at the flea market at Pasadena City College. But I'll try the sites above as well. My question is how do you find a good seamtress and about how much do they charge?- Doe Peterson

Flip flops in the white house.
You all sound like my husband and I when we go out (we also live in L.A.)! I do agree with your sentiments about flip-flops, but what is just ridiculous is the pajama craze!

Sleeping in curlers?
I've been experimenting with curlers over the years. I've tried those soft spongy ones where you can twist the ends (comfy) and the regular round spongy curlers (not so comfy). I've tried pin curls (comfy if I use bobby pins) and now I'm gonna try the paper ones that are suggested in the my...- Doe Peterson

Vintage Makeup Favorites
Oh thank you ladies for all these wonderful tips! I have opposite problem, I have a hard time finding foundations/powders that are dark enough. But not too dark. I'm between shades as well. I love Besame, but they don't have a powder or foundation dark enough yet. When I was younger, I used to...- Doe Peterson

Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings
Oh! Thanks! This is so wonderful have other women to talk to about these 'girlie' things! Many of my girlfriends don't understand how I can be the least bit interested in girdles and cinchers in this day and age but I love Girdlebound!! I've actually turned my mom onto them. She's been trying...- Doe Peterson

Girdles, Corsets, and Underpinnings
Hello Everyone, I'm new to the forum. I love girdles!!! I've been wearing them daily for about five years now and I don't plan to give 'em up anytime soon. I am currently having a corset made for me and I am so excited! I've wanted one ever since I was a young girl. Cheers, Doe- Doe Peterson
