    Setting Lotion

    Here's a comparison chart done by a blogger: http://www.misslabelle.com/2012/05/17/setting-lotion-trial-the-results/ Based on personal experience, I definitely vote for Lottabody. I tried my best with flaxseed lotion, but on my hair it really dulled the shine, and therefore the overall effect...

    Linen handkerchief

    I simply use a special soap (if that is the correct term) for handwashing. Either the Oxy or the Blink one, both are, in my experience, just fine. Meh, of course, in Europe, you have to watch where it was manufactured - I'm not a 100% sure, but I think I'm buying those made in Germany...

    Best Night cream?

    SkullChick, you might want to see a dermatologist. If you changed your beauty routine and still get irritations, break-outs, rashes, etc., the solution could be a tad deeper than a good face cream. In the meantime my advice would be a) the same as Oh lala!'s b) if the key factor is irritation...

    DIY Gone Wrong

    Oh, boy, this snowballed fast :) At least the church is seeing a tourist flow. Praised be the Internet.

    Show us your hair do's....

    GHT, your wife looks beyond lovely! My most sincere compliments! Antje, thank you so much for explaining the wave! I've always wondered how it was done, and never got around th finding out.

    Best Night cream?

    You might want to be careful about regular application of lemoin juice to your skin. It doesn't need any undue stress. Sour cream with minced persley is better for sunburns (or to make freckles pale).

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    Scarlet Street (1945). I think it's a great example of the noir genre, even if gets overlooked a lot. P.S. this film makes me wish Jess Barkers' movie career weren't so short-cut. He could have dished out some great roles. Le sigh.

    Best Night cream?

    You know, I went a very un-traditional route just the last days. :) I usually prefer "dr. Organic's Rose Otto Night Cream", but I've been having a few stress-related (or so I think) break-outs and irritations (P.S. I'm a VERY pale skinned gal), and I used a sample of Lush's Ro's Argan Body...

    Old Time Back Ache Remedy

    An old lady shared a recipe with me - I don't know how "vintage-authentic" it is, but seeing as how she's well over 80, I think it qualifies. Homemade, too. Take 5 garlic cloves, grind them, mix in a tablespoon of cinnamon, cloves, black pepper, ginger, and kurkuma each (all ground). Add enough...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Woman in Black (2012) I've had some serious doubts about this, remakes being what they are and the 1989 film being a masterpiece. But this film was a very pleasant disappointment.

    What katie did.... vintage lingere

    lynseyshaw, since I had absolutely the same concerns, I'll answer that gladly :) I'm a 36F in What Kaite Did measurements and I've always had trouble with adequate back support with modern bras, with the back strap riding up to my neck and the shoulder straps cutting in like hell. (Excuse me)...

    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    I'm definitely not saying that it's ALL the media's fault. In fact, I believe I've stated before that parents have a huge responsibility too. It' just that many people shrug it off as something entirely unimportant. Maybe I was a tad too stressful in making my point. If so, forgive me. P.S...

    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    Yes, exactly! Thank you. And don't even get me started on the teachers who treat girls, who develop early, as "loose". Talk about positive reinforcement, indeed!

    Today's Pinup Fashion a Sly Wink to the Past - New York Times

    LolitaHaze, yes, what you say is true - but for an adult. These days, Cosmo and the like are mostly targeted at teenagers and young adults, who are still developing psychologically. You didn't get affected, and that's great, but a LOT of girls do. They look in the mirror and they see someone...

    Hanging your laundry on a clothesline

    We have not one, but three drying racks! :) We put them on the back terrace. But when I lived in a tiny apartment I put clothing lines on the balcony.
