    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    Thanks, ladies. It's nice to hear I'm not totally off on the appropriate work attire attitude. I got an email from my mother-in-law this morning. I suppose she talked to my husband and found out how upset I was by her comments. Apparently now I'm TOO overdressed and don't know how to dress for...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    So.. I'm pretty peeved... I had a job interview on Thursday. I didn't go all out, but I wore my dark purple suit dress since I was told the company was a little more relaxed, a pair of basic black pumps, plain stockings, small diamond stud earrings and my wedding ring. Conservative make-up...

    Welcome To The No Spender Bender

    Thanks Tom. I appreciate it. I didn't get the last interview, though I think it's a fit thing. The office manager woman who interviewed me was wearing flip flops and had a messy pony tail. I wasn't comfortable there from the moment I walked in to the moment I walked out. Something will come up...

    Welcome To The No Spender Bender

    Lost my job a couple of weeks ago so the Dave Ramsey plan gets kicked into high gear with the depletion of my emergency fund. :-( *sigh* I'd like pretty dresses for the potential new job though..

    Show Us Your Purchases!

    Between this picture, and the one on the hair do's thread, you've gained an admirer in my husband who's has been sitting next to me. "Wow! I could even overlook that she's Canadian.." Feel free to ignore him. That's how he compliments people. [huh]

    What are you listening to?

    Just got in from the Big Bad Voodoo Daddy show at House of Blues Houston. Great show live. Definitely went away happy. As it is, I'm listening to their Cab Calloway Tribute album. I won't be sleeping for a while. :)

    Nope, lost my job so I'm on the beans and rice mentality. No room in the budget for pretty dresses.. :(

    Resurrection Dita just posted a picture of herself in a fabulous '55 Dior Tweed Suit. I'm wondering if it could be copied if I send the picture to Top Runway... I think I'm in love.

    Pearl, that look can be achieved with pin curls. Had I a video camera I'd show you how. Maybe that's what I should ask for come this next birthday....

    Show us your hair do's....

    Is that a good thing or a bad thing!? Thank you. Sometimes it's nice to hear that I still look pretty young, but when I'm pushing 30 hearing that I look 19 isn't something that always makes me happy! I notice when I do my hair I "look my age" as opposed to when I leave it straight and do...

    What's on Top - Bras, panties, garter belts, slips, & stockings

    Agreed. For the price, I figure if the dye doesn't really take, then oh well. I'm just happy to find them for less than 25-30 bucks a pop!

    Vintage Manicures

    I'm so doing this on my 2 year old daughter. She's in a "Just like Mummy" stage anyway. Every night, we get ready for bed together, she puts aveeno baby lotion on her face when I put my cold cream, she gets a little cotton ball with a little rose water on it when I use my Thayers, etc... I'm...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I'm under a lot of pressure now... someone in my husband's group told him last night, "I can't wait to see what your wife is wearing on Thursday! She's so cute!" ...I suppose I won't ever be able to show up in jeans and trainers...lol
