    "Lazy" Vintage Hair Ideas

    Hestia, I hate you! lol You have like, THE perfect bun! I love the buns that look like they've just bloomed out of the ponytail, versus the way I have to roll mine around, creating the little donut effect. Any tips? How long is your hair?

    I really like the shirt. It was an XS, which is not my usual size, but fit me more snug the way I wanted. It has some good stretch to it. If you read what their items are made out of, most of them are a poly/spandex stretch fabric which allows you to buy a size smaller than normal. One of the...

    Hmm... then I don't know what I'm thinking about. I thought there was an actual name. Maybe it is parfumerie. Oh well. [huh] Just thought I'd ask!

    Odd question Does anyone know what perfume shops were called back in the 40s and 50s? Or just any time past? I thought there was an actual name for them... not sundries... millineries are hat stores... anyone? Anyone?

    Inky, you look adorable sitting on your new luggage! It's very pretty, and how wonderful that it belonged to your grandmother.

    @Lusti Weather--I buy nylons in bulk! I always end up putting my finger nails through the stockings and making huge runs or rips in them. :mad: @Zendy--I agree. How funny you should say "60's remake" because that's exactly what era my dress is from, early 60's! lol @Aorta--Coin purses...

    "Knock-off" vintage I really wanted a trench-style dress, or jacket dress to wear on the plane for our upcoming vacation. I had this coat in mind... ...but it's from Victoria's Secret and is $160. I wanted something a.) less expensive and b.) vintage. Today, I hit the jackpot...

    White After Labor Day

    That's kind of what was going through my head! "Why would you make a white winter coat if you're not supposed to wear it after Labor Day?" lol I just found an article that says as long as you pair it with a darker color pallet, white can be very pretty for winter!

    White After Labor Day

    What about white jackets? We're taking a trip in october and I found this grogeous vintage trench coat dress, but it is white. Is that a no-no?

    Hungry: Crystal Renn

    I love that ad! I saw it once and remember thinking she had the figure of a paint model! You know what I'm talking about? The ladies that artists used to hire for their paintings or sculptures? I think I definitely like her skin better on the paler side. Looks beautiful with her hair color.

    Has anyone tried any of Coty's scents? I love the way their powder smells and saw that they sell fragrances at The Vermont Country Store. There's 3 of them, I believe.

    Hungry: Crystal Renn

    You're right, and I apologize for that. I shouldn't have used that word. But, to that same aspect, I think there's a difference between girls who are naturally petite or slim, and those that just overdo it with dieting.

    Makeup to go with purple??

    We were sick when we realized how much had been spent! It was just so overwhelming having them do our make-up then shoving things at us. Once we got home and our heads stopped spinning we went through and seperated what we wanted to keep and what we wanted to return. The ironic thing is the...

    Clothing color combinations

    I just looked it up, and I guess I'm techinically an "autumn," not quite a winter. MissSis--I found that one one Google but thought it was more for what colors to pair with each other, versus what colors one could wearing with their skin tones. [huh]

    Clothing color combinations

    Skin tones & clothing colors I know we have a thread for Redheads and what clothing colors look good on them, but I didn't think we just had a general "will this look good with my coloring?" thread. Feel free to merge if needed Bartenders--with my apologies! Our Marine Corps Ball is coming...

    Wrap Dress Patterns

    I stumbled across this one while looking for Swirl dresses last week. It says that part of the pattern has been cut, but depending on how adept you are with your sewing, you might be able to work with it. I think it's an adorable pattern! (I love the pockets.)...
