    Show Us Your Purchases!

    A few patterns I think these pics might come out huge. Sorry! I bought these from Woodland Farms a couple weeks ago. I'll add them to my pile of things to make. I have plenty of patterns but no fabric. Any good suggestions for places to buy vintage fabric? I bought two more patterns at...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    Definitely vanity here too and because I'm so short, 5 pounds look like 10 on me.:rage: Btw, has anyone ever tried a pilates machine? Are they worth the price? I've done mat pilates and liked it but a woman at my gym said she liked the machines better.

    Open Toed Sandals with Indecent Feet

    Let's not forget those gals that are either too lazy or just don't care enough to touch up their nail polish. Who wants to see six day old chipped horrid nail polish with sandals or any open-toed shoe?

    SOLID POTATO SALAD

    ............. There are no words....... ........What is UP with that song?????? What.....? I've seen Chinese acrobats do contortion stuff like that. Makes me feel sore all over. I'll never think of potato salad the same again.

    Cute Vintage-y Shoes

    Cherry, I don't know anything about FL's meeting either although I'm sure there are some. If you run into me, though I'll probably be in the Pacific with a Phillipine unit. Look for a quonset hut, Tomy's Bar, a weapons carrier, and a Harley WLA. Just ask for Kate. I'm a short Asian girl, can't...

    Do we like sodie pop? What do you like and what do you call it?

    Me too! Well, maybe not since I was two but Coke is the drink of choice...plain old cold refreshing coke. When I was in college, I'd roll out of bed at 7:30, grab a coke out of the fridge, and head to my 8 a.m. It got so bad that I was drinking about a 12-pack every other day. I had to do a...

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    I just won these yesterday! I hope they fit, I hope I hope I hope. I've been searching for a pair in my size for forever! Also, my boyfriend went on a slight shopping spree a couple weeks ago and bought me two dresses, two hats, and two bags (not that he didn't spend an equal amount of money...

    Show Us Your Compacts . . .

    Richard Hudnut Here's my compact. I've been trying to upload photos to my computer but just can't get my camera software to jive with my new computer. So I had to do a google image search to find something that was similar. It's a small rectangular compact with powder on the left and blush on...

    What are your favorite colors?

    I like deep colors on clothes because of my skin tone; I think I look dumb in pastels. My favorite colors have to be jade green, chocolate brown, light grey, most blues; especially navy, and deep reds. The only time I like pastels is on flowers and trees.

    Show Us Your Compacts . . .

    Wow Vanessa, those are beautiful! I saw a few on ebay but money is tight so I've been concentrating on buying main pieces like dresses, shoes, and hats. How do you date something like a compact?

    What Would You Change (about yourself) for Your Vintage Wear?

    I feel you! I have small feet (5-5.5) but they are way too wide to wear all those small shoes. I'd also grow a few inches. I'm only 4'10 so dresses cut to hit below the knee tend to really hit me mid-calf or lower. Also, wouldn't mind hair that didn't hate me every time I curled it. My hair is...

    Do you tell?

    I'm a very green 23....soon to be 24 towards the end of the year. I still get carded everywhere I go for alcohol and that gets to me because they look at me like I'm some criminal. It doesn't help that I'm waaaaayyyy short. As for asking other people....if they are around my age and I'm...

    The Da Vinci Code

    I wish I had read the book because everyone I know loved it somehow. I think all the controversy is overrated but whatever does it for you. I was driving past one of the local movie theaters and there were Catholic protestors along the road with signs and banners and pictures of Christ and...

    Female WWII Reenactors?

    I second Story's idea. Reading is a GREAT show and there are tons of people there who would be more than willing to talk to you and help you out! Even though I could legitimately see combat doing a Russian impression, I think I'd rather stick to American. Even though I'm not gung-ho Asian...

    vintage HAIRCUT

    I have really course hair but somehow it's very fine and yet there's a lot of it. That doesn't make any sense but my hair is heavy so I definitely sympathize with you. My hair's layered right now and about shoulder length. Any longer and *poof* there goes the curl after I take a brush through it...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    I try and hit the gym four or five days a week and usually run about four or five miles. Otherwise I run a hard three miles and do lots of crunches. Fortunately I love salads but I also love steak and I'm not always too particular about how lean it is.....and when you know what comes around...
