    Do's and Don'ts in Fashion

    Black under white?! Ew! How do I make a belt and with the ribbon, should I tie it or should it lay flat somehow? What about using a scarf? In the one picture, it looks like the woman has blue and red fabric tied around her waist. Btw, great pictures. Thanks. Is it imperative that I wear a...

    Female WWII Reenactors?

    Sort of along the same line but sort of off topic....sorry! But....can anyone help me with finding an impression to do? I would love to reenact but I'm one of those slanty eyed devils so to do a realistic impression I think I'd either have to do Russian (I think they had Asians in their military...

    Vintage Shoe info

    mmmm.....teeny tiny shoes. I love sellers who sell teeny tiny shoes. My problem is that my feet are amazingly wide for as short as they are. Makes it very very difficult to find vintage shoes that fit well. I bought a pair of alligator round toe pumps. Loooooooove them but they are a bit narrow...

    Do's and Don'ts in Fashion

    What about hats, shoes, bags, gloves, and belts? I bought a dress that is missing its belt. Should I get a belt to match the shoes? Can I go for complementary colors or all the same? Should the accessories bring out a color in the dress or again, can they be complementary? And about the...

    Good Fashion News~

    I so agree! Every time I'm at the mall I wonder if their parents even glanced at them when they walked out the door. I'm pretty sure my father would have shackled me to my bed had I attempted to wear a mini skirt at any age!

    Good Fashion News~

    young girls are too concerned with what's trendy. They look at the displays in American Eagle *shudder* and take their fashion cues from that. Girls nowadays don't know how to dress themselves. Personally, I wear low cut jeans because I'm short (think 4'10) and low waisted jeans help elongate my...

    How do you keep your hats

    Thanks for the suggestions! I'll have to invest in a few head forms when I get a few extra bucks. And yes, it's deliciously fun to get new hats. I think these are from the late forties into the sixties so nothing good for a war-time impression but great hats nonetheless.

    Good Fashion News~

    Sailor pants, YEA! I was so happy to walk into Limited one day and see sailor type pants laying on the table. I think I'm going to make myself a pair as soon as I finish a couple dresses. High waisted pants are definitely back in fashion this season but I think it will take a while for the...

    How do you keep your hats

    Kepping old hats I recently acquired about 12 hats from my grandmother's house but some of them are all squished in or slighly bent. I'm not really sure of the period either so some websites with lots of pictures of different period hats might be helpful. What's the best way to straighten them...
